Why does the God of the Bible condemn homosexual acts?

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

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

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.

No one knows.

Right?

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

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

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

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).

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.

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

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

BlackRock removed from Texas blacklist after climate policy rollback - Financial Times

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

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).

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

Why didn't Taylor Swift do Taylor Swift (Taylors version)?

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.

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

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

My wife has a bunch of really attractive friends, and she expects me to never say anything to her about how beautiful they are. Does this seem fair? I love my wife, and just commenting shouldn’t hurt anything, right?

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.

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

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

Why is it the Legalists always run to the Law?

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

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.

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.

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.

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

If freedom of speech is absolute, how come it's not applied for private spaces and for the Internet?

Christ bore that, so, hard pass, thanks.

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