Where does Jesus ever talk about the evils of being GAY?

Question

Can't find it. Think it isn't in the Bible. Have conservative Christians read this book. All I found is the story of lot in the old testament and many Hebrew Scholars claim God punished Sodom and Gomorrah for their treatment of the poor and their lack of hospitality.

CITE SOURCES OR PASSAGES TO WIN BEST ANSWER?

In Deut. 29: 23-26 . . ."destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, which the Lorddestroyed in his fierce anger-- they and indeed all the nations will wonder, "Why has the Lord done thus to this land? What caused this great display of anger?" They will conclude, "It is because they abandoned the covenant of the Lord, the God of their ancestors, which he made with them when he brought them out of the land of Egypt. They turned and served other gods, worshiping them, gods whom they had not known and whom he had not allotted to them"
Deut. 32:32 also speaks of Sodom and Gomorrah, without any hint of homosexuality.
The prophet Ezekiel, for example, wrote in 16:4

Not all Christians believe in the trinity. Jesus isn't God undisputed. I am asking about the red letters in the BIBLE. The Red letters. Words he probably spoke. And wasn't he making a NEW COVENENT and doing away with the old testament>? Didn't he break the laws of the Sabbath himself???

Answer 1

That's because Jesus was all about loving one another, and treating others as you would like to be treated. And so, we should all campaign for equal rights for everyone, and stop preaching all the hatred and discrimination against LGBT people.

Perhaps it's also because Jesus found nothing evil in LGBT people, who after all, are just being exactly who God made them to be - and God doesn't make junk!

Thanks for your insightful question and your support of equality for all. Can you talk to the bigoted people against same-sex marriage, and therefore against the separation of church and state, for me too? :o)

Answer 2

Yes, Jesus does talk about the evils of being gay...it is found all over the Bible.

Levitus 18
Levitus 20:13
1 Corinthians 6:9
1 Timothy 1:10
1 Corinthians 6:12-20
Romans 1:27
1 Corinthians 5:1-13
2 Corinthians 12:21
Galatians 5:19
Ephesians 5:3
Colossians 3:5
1 Thessalonians 4:3-7
2 Peter 2:!8
Revelations 2:14
Revelations 2:20-22

In the Bible being gay is also refered to as a sexual sin.

(If you look in a New International Version, you will find that it says the word "homosexuality".)

Homosexuals will argue that God made them that way...when you are born, your not born that way, your born as a little girl or a little boy. When you are old enough to decide what is right and wrong, then you are making you own choice to choose to be this way, not God.

Answer 3

previous testomony & New say an identical appropriate factor on sexual immorality. God is rather sparkling that the sexually immoral won't enter the dominion of Heaven. There are ninety 9 texts on it by the bible - that is forbidden. Jesus words do matter, yet we nevertheless could obey the daddy. Ephesians 5:5 - for you're confident of this, that all and sundry who's sexually immoral or impure, or who's covetous (that is, an idolater), has no inheritance interior the dominion of Christ and God. Corinthians 6:9-10 - Or do you not understand that the unrighteous won't inherit the dominion of God? don't be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor adult males who practice homosexuality, nor thieves, nor the grasping, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the dominion of God. that would not recommend even with the undeniable fact that we are to hate people who're gay, yet that would not recommend we would desire to consistently agree that that is a fashion God needs human beings to stay. we will not agree, through fact that is not how God needs us to stay. This additionally incorporates slumbering with human beings jointly as you at the instant are not married.

Answer 4

The story of S&G is in Genesis 18 - starting at v 20. It just says that the city is really badly in sin. Ch 19 is the story of the actual destruction. It tells of an incident where the men of the town come to Lot's door and ask for the men that have come to visit, so they may "know" them. (another version says "have relations") Then, Lot instead offers up his virgin daughters to these evil men instead. That tells me that there was just a huge cloud of bad things going on there, not just homosexual behavior.

Jesus himself never mentioned this sin, but Paul, the major writer of the NT, and major father of Christianity brings it up again in Romans 1:24-27. I think it is pretty clear that this behavior is wrong in God's eyes.

Beyond that, I would never consider it any worse a sin than any other. There is no scale of sins listed anywhere in the Bible. There are varying levels of consequences here on earth, but in God's eyes, we are condemned for the very first sin we committ, which was probably disobeying our parents. It doesn't matter what sins we do or don't committ, what matters is simply that we kknow Jesus and choose to give our lives to Him and follow His ways. So, no , Jesus did not talk about the evils of being gay, only the sinful condition of mankind and its need for a savior.

Answer 5

Homophobes will tell you that by "fulfilling" the "law" Jesus automatically and magically validated the Leviticus law about man laying with man. That's hypocritical, of course, all things considered, but a better validation could be in what Jesus supposedly said about the wedding at Cana (more than likely his own wedding), which is that "God" made everyone male and female for that reason: to marry and mate.

You're dead on about the sin of Sodom & Gemorrah being inhospitality to strangers, or at the least rape, in the case of Lot's tale with the angels: RAPE, not HOMOSEXUALITY. And what people don't seem to understand is that the "abomination" thing is ritualistic, having to do with the times when people didn't understand the nature of homosexuality. A lot of ignorant people still don't understand, but that's because they refuse to. It was hard enough for them to concede that the Earth is round and revolves around the sun.

Answer 6

You are missing a HUGE point in Christian doctrine and the Bible.
Jesus (the man) was the physical manifestation of God on earth.
As the Second Person of the Trinity, He is God.

The Apostle John refers to Jesus as the "Word" that was made flesh (John 1). Literally, God's Word come to life.

God is the author of the Bible (40 books, 66 human scribes).
Jesus, as God is author of the Bible, and the human form on earth that lived the teachings.

Therefore, you must not exclude the Old Testament from the teachings of Jesus while He was on earth. The teachings of the Old Testament are also the teachings of Jesus.

Answer 7

the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young.
They called to Lot, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.
THE WORD "KNOW" IS IN A SEXUAL WAY AS IN GEN. 4:1 WHERE ADAM "KNEW" HIS WIFE EVE AND SHE GAVE BIRTH TO CAIN. THESE MEN WANTED TO HAVE UN-NATURAL SEX WITH LOTS COMPANY AND BECAUSE OF THIS LOT OFFERED HIS DAUGHTERS.
SODOMY COMES FROM THE WORD SODOM, BY NECESSARY INFERENCE THAT LEADS YOU TO THE CONCLUSION THAT SODOMY WAS GOING ON IN THAT TOWN BUT I GUESS THERE WAS A LITTLE BAD HOSPITALITY ALSO.
YES THE BOOK OF LEV. CONDEMNS HOMOSEXUALITY.
Lev 18:22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.
Lev 20:13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
The one who does this is guilty of the sin of sodomy.

Deut. 32:32 is comparing the Jews wickedness to Sodom.

the N.T. condemns homosexuality:
Mat 19:4 And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, Mat 19:5 And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? Mat 19:6 Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
by Jesus endorsing and enforcing what God has said he condemns all other different marriages such as male and male or female and female. he should not have to give a thou shalt not in this verse because he said male and female.

Rom 1:26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: Rom 1:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

Gal 5:19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness. uncleanness means unnatural practices; sodomy, bestiality.

Jud 1:7 Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

jesu also spoke of sodom in matt.

Answer 8

I don't think it does either. It's more of a common sense thing and evolutionary thing. There is a purpose for a penis and a vagina. They are meant to be together and made that way through the evolutionary process. The assho*le is made for riding the body of waste - that is all. Common sense. Being gay is a mental disease per se just as is depression etc. is considered.

Answer 9

"God made me like this. Sin is His fault!"

If this won’t work in a civil court, it certainly won’t work on Judgment Day. Even with an expert defense lawyer, it would take a pretty inept judge to fall for the old "God made me do it" defense. We are responsible moral agents. The "buck" stopped at Adam. He tried to blame both God and Eve for his sin; Eve blamed the serpent. It is human nature to try, but it doesn’t work with God.
"God made me to be a homosexual, so He doesn’t want me to change."

Homosexuals argue that they did not make a conscious decision to be that way, so it must be natural. They are born that way—just as all of us are born with a sin nature and sinful desires (Ephesians 2:1– ). Tell them that it is natural for them, and for all of us, to be tempted to do things that God says are wrong. In the same way, pedophiles and adulterers (alcoholics, drug addicts, etc.) don’t make a conscious decision to "choose" that self-destructive lifestyle, they simply give in to their sinful desires. However, although sin is natural for unbelievers, that doesn’t mean God wants them to remain that way. God can set them free from their sinful nature (Romans 7:23–8:2), give them new desires (Ephesians 4:22–24), and help them withstand temptations (1 Corinthians 10:13). See 1 Corinthians 6:9– 1 footnote.

Answer 10

The Holy Spirit inspired the entire Bible, and Jesus is in full agreement with the Holy Spirit, and here is what they agree upon:
Leviticus 20:13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
