AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Corinthians 6:9 ¶ Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit or have any share in the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate [by perversion], nor those who participate in homosexuality, |
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: Hi believer53: Some people have the belief, Homosexuality is the most heinous sin a person can commit, because of the word abomination connected with it. Strange because when we read, verse 23 says Mammilla, is only confusion. Seems to me they are coequal, well if we look at the whole chapter, verse 6 through 23 everything mentioned is abomination. Verses 24 through 30 tell us WHY, because in so doing the LAND is DEFILED. We as Christians, need to start calling, the acts mentioned here for what they truly are. ALL OF THE CUSTOMES MENTIONED IN THIS CHAPTER, FALL UNDER THE HEADING OF IDOLITRY. Last but by no means least, look at the very last sentence in the chapter. "I AM THE LORD YOUR GOD" God telling them again, you shall have no other gods before ME. GOD BLESS Jim |
