Why does the God of the Bible condemn homosexual acts?

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

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

Does He?

What does Jesus mean in Revelation 3:3 when He states, "Wake up! Strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have found your deeds unfinished in the sight of my God?"

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

Why are many women so drawn or attracted to men that have been or are currently in prison and men that are involved in street life/illegal activities?

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.

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.

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

Why is there no evidence of a multiverse theory?

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.

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.

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

How conservative the Japanese people really is? And the government?

Why is it the Legalists always run to the Law?

No one knows.

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

Should parents force their kids to go to school when they are sick?

Christ bore that, so, hard pass, thanks.

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

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.

Can the effects of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) be reversed?

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

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

Where?

Would you respect the US with a woman as president?

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

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

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).

Have you ever heard of the god Priapus being the same as the god Phosphorus?

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).

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

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

I’m wondering about attachment and transference with the therapist and the idea of escape and fantasy? How much do you think your strong feelings, constant thoughts, desires to be with your therapist are a way to escape from your present life? I wonder if the transference serves another purpose than to show us our wounds and/or past experiences, but is a present coping strategy for managing what we don’t want to face (even if unconsciously) in the present—-current relationships, life circumstances, etc. Can anyone relate to this concept of escape in relation to their therapy relationship? How does this play out for you?

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

Right?

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