Why does the God of the Bible condemn homosexual acts?

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

Christ bore that, so, hard pass, thanks.

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).

Why is the First Amendment referred to as a right to free speech instead of an immunity from punishment for one's words, regardless of their truthfulness?

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.

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

Today we have Divorce courts, protections, child custody, child and spousal support.

What are you struggling with in your life? What would you like to have instead?

Further Musings:

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

Does He?

Have husbands and wives ever had a threesome with someone in real life? How did it happen?

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

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.

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

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.

We still have sex from time to time ,and I started having sex with sex workers , joining threesomes..etc If u want pics of her text me.

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.

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

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

No one knows.

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.

Where?

How do I find a transgender girlfriend?

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.

What? It’s okay for David to be both a man after God’s own heart and a Bloody Bipolar Adulterer who even desecrated what was holy, as long as he wasn’t Bisexual, right? Lol

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.

My landlord just sold the house I’m renting from her. She included all fixtures, that I bought and installed. Does she have this right?

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).

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

Why is my vagina swollen, it’s very itchy. I had sex we used protection, but day after it felt like my insides had a heartbeat as well as itching, the pulsing has went away but it is still itchy and my discharge is yellow, i'm 15, what could it be?

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

No. Rape is violence, not sex. The story is about kidnapping into slavery and the abuse of strangers.

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

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

Why is it the Legalists always run to the Law?

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

Why isn't bestiality illegal in most states? If children can't consent, then animals DEFINITELY can't consent. Why is being a pedophile a crime but zoophilia is not?
