Bible Note: LibertyBelle, Here is your exact verse reference in 2nd Peter that ties the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah directly to homosexuality. Please particularly notice verse 7 and the term "sensual conduct". This of course does not preclude other sins of these two cities, but it does nonetheless include homosexuality as a direct reason for the fiery desctruction which ensued. - 2 Peter 2 6 and if He condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to destruction by reducing them to ashes, having made them an example to those who would live ungodly lives thereafter; 7 and if He rescued righteous Lot, oppressed by the sensual conduct of unprincipled men 8 (for by what he saw and heard that righteous man, while living among them, felt his righteous soul tormented day after day by their lawless deeds), (NAS95) - Reighnskye |
