Where
In The Bible Will I Find:
God
Condemning Homosexuality?
For
many years those who practice homosexuality did so in secret hiding their
shameful act of sin of which it is. In these latter years they have surfaced
from their cesspool of abominations and are parading their sinful acts of
perversion before the world as if to say, "We were ashamed of it before
but now we are no longer ashamed of it."
These
perverts of God's natural laws fail to understand that God clearly condemned
homosexuality both in the Old Testament and in the New Testament. God is the
same yesterday, today and forever. He does not condemn an act one day and
then approve the same act later on. God destroyed several cities with fire
and brimstone because they were filled with homosexuals (Genesis chapters 18
and 19, Jude 7), and then later, commanded that “If a man also lie with
mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an
abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon
them" (Lev. 20:13).
His
commandment is still "Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness
through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between
themselves: Who changed the truth of God into a lie...God gave them up unto
vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that
which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use
of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another, men with men working
that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their
error which was meet. And even as they did not like to retain God in their
knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which
are not convenient ... Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which
commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have
pleasure in them that do them" (Rom. 1:24-32).
God
has included homosexuality in the same class as all unrighteousness,
wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness, full of envy, murders, strife,
deceit, evilmindedness, whispers, back-biters, haters of God, violent,
proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
undisearning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful (Rom.
1:29-31).
Paul,
writing to the church at Corinth, classes homosexuals with fornicators,
idolaters, adulterers, thieves, covetous, drunkards, revilers, extortioners
and says these will not inherit the kingdom of God (I Cor. 6:9-10).
In
the beginning, God ordained marriage between one man and one woman for life.
Two women living together or two men living together cannot "be
fruitful and multiply, and replenish the earth" (Gen. 1:28). Bible
believers cannot support the sin of homo sexuality, This is a sin they have
chose on their own volition, it is not something they were born with, they
have chose this sinful life style, and in order for them to be saved they
must give it up, repenting of their sins.
