No, Dearest, Jesus didn't address the issue. He was more interested in people loving their neighbor as theirselves and helping each other and such....the good stuff too many Christians unfortunately forget about. I do truely wish they'd remember it. Blessings.

Jesus nuts say yes but they can never point to a verse where he does.
They can only come up with Leviticus, written by Moses not Jesus, which is in the old testament that was REPLACED by the law of the new testament.
Also. Whenever Jesus' word conflicts with other's words, JESUS takes priority. Jesus is supposed to be the authorative source. Funny that he never mentioned homosexuality. Since it's such a major subject for fundies.
99.999% of Jesus nuts do NOT know their bible. Tsk. Tsk. Tsk.
By the way, it's really rather astonishing that no one can answer the question as stated. They pull in references written by Paul and Moses. They never recite quotations that are supposedly recorded as Jesus' word. Only Paul and Moses' opinion.

NO!
Jesus never addressed the issue of homosexuality; He was more interested in love.
The Levitical laws against homosexual behaviour are not valid today. Leviticus 18:22 says, "Thou shalt not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; it is an abomination." Gay theologians argue that the term "abomination" is generally associated with idolatry, and the Canaanite religious practice of cult prostitution, and thus God did not prohibit the kind of homosexuality we see today.
Calling Homosexuality a Sin is judging, and judging IS a sin.

Technically, "Jesus" never said anything about it. The verses that are said to refer to homosexuality were written by Paul-in his writings after Jesus-and in the Book of Levitcus, years before Jesus.

Direct quote?
No.
Indirectly?
Yes.
While speaking about divorce, Jesus reiterates the purpose of the two genders. Men are to cleave to their wives, not to their husbands.

No, and even it it said so in the Bible, we could never be sure if he really said it.
