Why does the God of the Bible condemn homosexual acts?

The truth is, the Old Testament and New Testaments say next to nothing and sexual orientation is a relatively new concept.

Sodom and Gomorrah. Two cities completely filled with Gay men, young and old. Cities who recently had gone to war, who Abraham had rescued, who Lot went back to live among, who tried to rape two angels that they mistook for men … I guess.

(What do you think he would write a line or two about?)

Hi, I’m Jo. My best friend died 2 years ago today. My husband died 6 months later. So, I’m a depressed mess (we were married 28 years) and can’t shake it. Even my Brother is worried. Some days I don’t do anything, and avoid men cause I don’t want to date. Any suggestions? Thanks for reading.

Christ bringing up Genesis is not Him being exclusionary, it is Him reminding these lecherous men that their wives are bound to their hearts.

In Romans chapter 1, verses 26–27 are cherry-picked out of the context which starts in verse 18. The context is Idolatry.

Didn’t they read Galatians? Romans? James and his “Law of Liberty.” The entire New Testament? You can even find Grace in the Old Testament, some of the Rabbis have.

What are some things that normal people do that religious people call sins?

Scholars and translators know this. The Greek translation of Arsenokoitace is uncertain. The word was coined by Paul (probably) or a contemporary of his. Any person who says they know exactly what Paul meant is lying (seriously).

Men interpret Scriptures certain ways, but Jesus said we make void the Word by our tradition. Groupthink is tradition.

Does He?

Why do people see porn pics when they can watch porn videos instead?

I am not a Jewish man. I’m am not under any part of the Law for my righteousness. To place myself under the Law for my righteous standing with God would be to put myself under the curse of the Law listed in Dt 28.

Christ bore that, so, hard pass, thanks.

Mt 19 is about Divorce. Jesus’ reference to Celibacy is that it is a gift from God and that not everyone can receive it.

Why do I feel so tired all the time even after a good night’s sleep?

If you embrace the fact that David “embraced” Jonathan and God was cool with it, you find that your concepts about what God “hates” get thrown out.

Those women were shunned, shamed, casted out and abandoned. The man had all the power and Jesus dared to challenge that. Even His disciples were astounded.

(So please, before you enforce celibacy on another, castrate yourself … or leave other people alone?)

Why do you think Filipinos are conservatives?

Homophobia is a billion dollar business for Corporate Christianity. Isn’t it?

No one knows.

Him and I are good and that’s all I need.

Is it true that most women like alpha males?

Many believe Paul is writing about what he sees, temples that have male and female prostitutes engaged in ritual activities.

Inhospitable, loathsome, yet leave it to homophobia to twist it and miss it (the verse they use in Jude fails the test because of this).

If anything, Paul was writing about male prostitutes, not LGBT.

Did Obito ever fully redeem himself in everyone's eyes?

Right?

Why can’t some Christians?

There were Male Shrine Prostitutes in the OT book of Kings, that practice was old in Paul’s time. Many dismiss the idea based what seem to be personal or sociological reasons, not archaeological ones.

Is it recommended to leave a note in a lost wallet asking for it to be returned?

Since Paul is who most homophobes run to in order to support their case, I went to him first, there really isn’t much left.

Try to break free from the shackles of it and you will find yourself outside the fold Pastor.

These were common in that culture in Athens, Corinth, Ephesus, Rome, and Crete, all places Paul went. They existed centuries after Paul.

I was awaken between 2-3am by a voice that said “Hey”. Literally right next to my ear. Sounded like a males voice, but it wasn’t stern or deep. What could this mean?

Answer to: Why does the God of the Bible condemn homosexual acts?

Last, Leviticus. Two almost identical verses. One sex act (If translated correctly. The Hebrew words are sparse. People debate everything).

Why is it the Legalists always run to the Law?
