Don’t you realize that those who do wrong will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Don’t fool yourselves. Those who indulge in sexual sin, or who worship idols, or commit adultery, or are male prostitutes, or practice homosexuality, or are thieves, or greedy people, or drunkards, or are abusive, or cheat peopleâ€â€none of these will inherit the Kingdom of God.

wbmoore, you have an awesome knowledge of the Bible, every one of the verses you cited say it all. I do not know why this is even in question, or so called Christians and even entire denominations are turning against what is written.
gay = homosexual = homo..sexual = sexual attraction to same sex. how is that not about sex? If it weren't about sex it wouldnt be gay. Love without sexual inclination would be agape love, which Christ preached that we should all have for one another. Eros is the term you would use for love involving sex. When God speaks of love he speaks of agape love, and eros between a man and a woman in marriage.
Christ says to love each other as he does but not in any kind of sexual nature... thats the reason people are gay right? If there wasn't a sexual desire then they would be friends. The SEX is what is wrong. define your definition of love.
It's God's will not mine, this isn't just a movement against homosexuality but sin in general, thats what people need to understand. Personally, I dont plant more than one crop in any fields or wear shirts of multiple fibres. What context would you be refering to? If God commands us, it is eternal, none of this "God's law doesnt apply today". It is IMPOSSIBLE to keep God's law, but willfully breaking it with no regard for it, is wrong. The reason Christ was sent to the Earth was to offer God's people a way to be forgiven for our sins. We are born with sinful natures, and can in no way keep God's law, that doesn't mean we shouldn't try, it's only through Christ we may recieve eternal life, and it is written:
For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23).
John 3:16-18 will show you the path to salvation.
it's still pretty cut and dry and prostitution is not mentioned in that verse, or the surrounding verses, but clear laws against sexual sin contrary to God's will. Pagan temple or paganism in general is not mentioned either. The only place where the term prostitution is used is Leviticus 20:6 and it is not in reference to any pagan rituals but a way of saying he is a "sell out" to his God and people.
I don't see that word...prostitution, in that verse anywhere. I think it's pretty cut and dry.
Sorry Shuck, meant that leviticus verse towards poksmot, not you.
Animals get confused, they're animals after all and don't think the way human beings do. Just because it happens doesn't mean it was meant to. Animals will eat their young when they feel threatened, is that really what was best for nature and intended?
shuck... how about Leviticus 20:13...
I had to remove my last post because it was just pointless to clarify how un-natural homosexuality is... show me how nature intended it to work cause I dont see it.
Hypocrite isn't refering to you negatively, only describing your thought process. You say one thing, and then another that contradicts the previous. Homosexuality is biologically wrong as well, and to say otherwise is simply ignorant. If homosexuality were natural, then nature would provide people with a healthy means to engage in it, as it did with man and woman.
God created man and woman to be companions to one another. Sex is a gift given to them as a way to express love and affection as well as to reproduce, be fruitful and multiply. Homosexuals cannot multiply, and generally speaking base their relationships on sex, AS DO many heterosexual people which is also outline in the Word of God. Adultery no matter who you are is sinful, sex with animals, ect. Supporting homosexuality and gay marriage is no different than supporting adultery, pornography, beastiality, or drug use. It is un-natural and only leads to death (STDs, and by the fact that gay people can bear no children). Christians do not hate gay people if they do they need to correct themselves, Christians hate sin. Everybody sins and we hate it all. If people like "gay" were happy in their lives and really thought their behavior was natural, why even bother posting on a Christian website. More often than not, people who are trapped in darkness are offended greatly by those in the light. They don't want their actions revealed due to their nature, once again this pertains to all sin and not just homosexuality. "gay" came to this site because he/she is hurting, and I would say God led them here to be exposed to his Word. Nobody said the road to redemption was easy.
On our own we are little more than bits of stone and glass. Together we are the Body of Christ. Holy Bible: Mosaic is an invitation to experience Christ in His Word and in the responses of his people. Each week, as you reflect on guided Scripture readings aligned with the church seasons, you will receive a wealth of insight from historical and contemporary writings.
