Bible Question: with scientific evidence now pointing that we can't help being born 'GAY' do you feel homosexuality is wrong?if God knew us,even in our mothers womb why would he 'make' us that way? |
Bible Answer: Greetings, I read a great deal of this thread and am curious why no one brought up Romans chapter one. Romans chapter one does more than simply say that Homosexuality is wrong. Paul also deals as to why it's wrong as well as why people engage in homosexuality. He begins in verse 18 by saying that God's anger and wrath about sin is clearly known to all people. On the day of judgment, no one can use "I didn't know" as an excuse. Ignorance may be bliss in many things, but not when it comes to what makes God mad, which is sin. So .. what does God do? He punishes the sinful. He lets them continue in their ways, which leads to the false religions we have now. However, it doesn't stop there. This leads to sexual immorality and perverted sexual acts. This continues on to homosexuality, which leads to hatred, malice, lies, even murder, jealousy, and arrogance. Finally, it leads to death in sin. It begins with God clouding the minds of the fools that other men thought of as brilliant. You ask why is Homosexuality is still wrong even though science seems to say different. Paul answers it in Romans. These scientists are the ones people of today see as wise and brilliant, but are nothing more than what Paul describes as Fools with darkened hearts. Quvmoh |
