Why does the God of the Bible condemn homosexual acts?

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

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

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

Why don't men find fat women attractive?

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.

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

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

How will Israelis respond to someone claiming that anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism, in the same way as anti-feminism not being misogyny and opposing same-sex marriage not being homophobia?

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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).

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).

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.

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

What are 50 random facts about yourself?

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.

Why can’t some Christians?

Right?

What are some of the most annoying movie clichés?

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

Christ bore that, so, hard pass, thanks.

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

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

Why is it the Legalists always run to the Law?

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.

Is the saying "nice guys finish last" true? Can good intentions always lead to positive outcomes?

Further Musings:

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.

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

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

Where?

No one knows.

What are "demonic attacks" and how can one tell when they're happening to them, or someone else? How would one go about dealing with it?

Does He?

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.

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

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