AMPLIFIED 2015 | Leviticus 20:18 'If a man lies [intimately] with a woman during her menstrual cycle and uncovers her nakedness, he has exposed her flow, and she has uncovered the flow of her blood; both of them shall be cut off from their people [excluding them from the atonement made for them]. |
Bible Question:
Here I go again. Where can I find specifics dealing with homosexuality? Does the bible explicitly say homosexuality is wrong or does it implicitly say so? How can the episcopalian church elect an openly gay person as bishop, especially if he is actively gay? Or is simply not prcticing homosexuality? Is homesexuality not apart of the doctorine they teach? Please help. I am an advocate and I love to debate. Sometimes I get stuk because I can't find certain things. I need some textual evidence for this one. I remember reading something in Romans, but I can't find it. |
Bible Answer: Greetings Journey, In a previous answer I stated: Greetings, Strong's dictionary defines "lie" as:A primitive root; to lie down (for rest, sexual connection, decease or any other purpose): - X at all, cast down, ([over-]) lay (self) (down), (make to) lie (down, down to sleep, still, with), lodge, ravish, take rest, sleep, stay (7901). It is very possible that one could twist the meaning of the word "lie" to fit their need, however, I refer you to 1Cor 6:9-10: "Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, """"""""nor homosexuals,"""""""""" nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. Lev 18:22 Never have sexual intercourse with a man as with a woman. It is disgusting. (God's Word) I don't think it can be made much plainer than this. Another proof that adultry is a sin is found in Rom 1:27 - Likewise, their men have given up natural sexual relations with women and burn with lust for each other. Men commit indecent acts with men, so they experience among themselves the punishment they deserve for their perversion. Yet another proof can be found in 1Tim 1:10 - 1Ti 1:10 Laws are intended for people involved in sexual sins, for homosexuals, for kidnappers, for liars, for those who lie when they take an oath, and for whatever else is against accurate teachings. Here Paul likens them to kidnappers and liars. In addition Gen 19 tells the story of Sodom and Gomorrah. All the male citizens of Sodom wanted Lot to send out the angels so that they could have sex with them. Lot called them evil. The bible has been quite clear on the subject of homosexuality. Those who practice it are blinded to the Word of God and walk with the unrighteous. You can find much more by typing "homosexual" into the search window. prayon |
