Why does the God of the Bible condemn homosexual acts?

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).

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

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.

What are women's true thoughts and feelings on bestiality?

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

Why can’t some Christians?

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.

What is the difference between anxiety and depressive neurosis?

Right?

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

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

What does it mean when a guy says he doesn't want to ruin the friendship? Is he rejecting me or is there another explanation? Why would a guy choose not to risk the friendship if he has feelings for me?

Does He?

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

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

How do the police verify the authenticity of an online profile? What methods do they use to determine if a profile is real or fake?

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.

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

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

Why do people say African Americans act the way they do because they're poor, when the ones with money act the same?

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.

Why is it the Legalists always run to the Law?

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

How can a hacker damage me, realistically?

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

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

Christ bore that, so, hard pass, thanks.

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

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).

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

Has anyone had a romance scammer start messaging them on Quora? How do you know if the person is scamming you? What do you do?

Where?

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

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

Ive been pretending to be okay and acting as normal as possible, but Im actually completely heartbroken after a recent breakup. Its painful and really affecting me, to the point where I cant concentrate at work, Ive lost my appetite, I cant sleep, and It feels as if my whole world has been turned upside down. I loved him so much. He said so many cruel things to me and it made me realize he must not have loved me the way I loved him, or he wouldnt have said such horrible things. How do I handle the heartbreak and why cant I accept that he didnt love me and just forget about him?

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

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.

No one knows.

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.

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.

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

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