Where in the Bible does it explain where this act is a sin? My better half seems to think it's ok to be a ***. I've found Leviticus 18:22 "Do not practice homosexuality; it is a detestable sin." Where else in the Bible does it state? She's a f'n die hard liberal.

These two were off the top of my head at the time. There are others that speak of sexual immorality and the like.....

1 Corinthians 6:8-10 But you yourselves wrong and defraud—even your own brothers! Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality,nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.

1 Timothy 1:9-11 ...understanding this, that the law is not laid down for the just but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who strike their fathers and mothers, for murderers, the sexually immoral, men who practice homosexuality, enslavers, liars, perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound doctrine, in accordance with the gospel of the glory of the blessed God with which I have been entrusted.

 

I'm pretty sure judging others is a sin

Stating someone is speeding in a 70 mph zone because they were doing 85 when the sign is clearly stated the rules is not judging.....it is just fact.

Who is judging who? He asked what the Bible said about it.

Another verse, from Romans 1

26Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. 27In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.

Thank you.

 

Your better half is a lesbian and you're complaining?

What sucks is she's lezzy, but doesn't believe in 3-ways.

Can not the word sin in the OT mean, rather than a sin against the Almight Judge, a way of living (path) that may not be good for inividual and societal health and well being?

 

Bible is bullshit, how can a book tell people how to live there lives?

With that outlook, does the current laws of this country not tell you how to live?

it's something you have in your heart, not something you read in a book.

 

Well said

Spoken by a man who obviously is much more learned in the Bible than any of us are, will be, or could ever hope to be LOL.

No, she's just thinks being gay is ok. I just believe it's not.

I've read the bible atleast twice, was raised catholic, went to church twice a week for 15 years. It's out dated, and is completely irrelevant to society today. It has good values and teachings in it, but can't be applied to society today.

kinda sounds like when people say the constitution is outdated. The reason it was written in text form was because it was not meant to be changed. If it was meant to be changed to whatever made you feel better then it would have been word of mouth. The suggestion is asinine... do you really think homosexuality was invented in 1990 or something?

There's a major difference between the Bible and what the Catholics call their bible. The Bible and Christianity are EXTREMELY relevant to todays society. Don't believe me, listen for yourself. BTW, this is specifically on the thread's topic.

Yes out dated. If the daughter of a priest has sex she should be burned to death, that children should be beaten to be corrected (proverbs 23) among a list of other things come on. The bible has no reference to technology, abortion, space.

 

Proverbs 23 speaks of not witholding discipline from a child.....something foreign to our liberal society of today.

Space? I need look no further than Genesis.

This is just from my own memory

For someone who has "read the bible twice", you sure didn't retain much of it... things that are in the news today are extremely relevant to the bible. And quoting one verse out of the OT (That's the old testament) is no kind of proof. The old laws were not the same as what we have today. Again, something you should know. Maybe being Catholic you didn't get into that too much.

lol that's ridiculous.

 

does it say anything in the new testament?

 

does it say anything in the new testament?

See posts #2 and #5, all 3 of those verses are in the New Testament

 

So, is homosexuality a sin? If so, what kind of sin, what are the punishments, if any? If someone is a homosexual, should they change? If so, why?
Are there any statements in the NT about homsexuality and how does this compare to OT statements?
If homosexuality is not a sin, why do you think G#d made them?

 

God does not "make" anyone a homosexual, rather it's a choice the individual who is one has made for themselves.
