He didn't address gay marriage. Nor, did he see the need to address abortion. Both very prominent in both Roman and Greek societies. I've often wondered why he didn't say anything against either one...his apostles did (in regard to the gay thing, but no abortion)...but he didn't address either. Strange don't you think...
Did he think there were greater things to worry about? Did he not care? Did he say something and it wasn't recorded? Don't know.
But, there are instances of homosexuality wrote about in the Bible. Isn't David and Saul's son a classic example? What was said about that relationship...
And, what about Ruth and Naomi?
Something else to consider, is there a conflict between the old and new testament? Is it further proof that somewhere the bible is 'off'?
Or, is what we read from the apostles merely their opinion on the subject?

Don't do it....Marriage was the first and greatest institution ever created by God. Before there was a school house, a court house, or a church house there was the home (marriage/the family). God has never and will never accept the vile and wicked practice of gay marriage. If the U.S. Supreme Court allows gay marriage I'll move to Cuba. At least Castro has enough sense to out-law and ban homosexuality and gay marriages. And we call our self a christian nation. Bologna....why Jimmy Carter allowed Castro to send all the Cuban queers and criminal's to the U.S. God only knows. I liked Carter but, he'll answer to God for that one. Just the answer and opinion of a simple minded Baptist Preacher.

Jesus did not have direct word on this issue.Looks that He did not have direct contact with any person involved in this act.But apostle Paul by the holy spirit pointed to homos and lesbians as people given over to their own lust because the refuse to accept the word of God.The are debased and lost.They need deliverance through the Holy Spirit

We have no record of Jesus's words regarding the issue of gay marriage, which is a shame. It would open so many people's eyes. Love is love.

Jesus did not need to talk about sins that were already covered in the Old Testement. He did not need to say that murder was a sin and he did not need to repeat LEVITICUS 18 Forbidden Sexual Practices. It is a list of sexual sins given to Moses by God including incest, adultery, homosexuality, and bestiality.
LEV 18:22 "Do not practice homosexuality, having sex with another man as a woman. It is a detestable sin."

I wasn't sure myself so I looked it up. Granted these are words from the Bible not Jesus's words. I didn't find anything specifically said by Jesus.

Don't believe you'll find anything. Jesus had a lot to say about all kinds of things so I guess he had more important things on his mind.

well no one really knows what exactly Jesus said because his writings were never found or hidden by the church.

Jesus said don't touch pigs skin, so don't play football.
