Death. The price of ALL sin.

They are sins just like all other sins and if you haven't been forgiven and trusted Christ as your Savior, then you are dead in your sins meaning no hope for eternal life. You either accept Christ or reject Christ. When Jesus the Christ comes into your heart and dwells within you as said by the Holy Spirit then you begin to change and drop these sins of blasphemy, adultery and homosexuality. We come as we are to Christ and when He gives us the Holy Spirit we begin to change. What the Holy Spirit starts in us He is more than able to finish. Trust God and He will take your sins away and make you white as snow. I always say the only righteousness in me is Christ Jesus, because without Christ I am nothing.

The second death. Which is the eternal existence in the lake of fire. This punishment is for any unpaid sin. The punishment for liars is the same for homosexuality. The reason is that both have chose their sin over the forgiveness that Christ provides.

The punishment for any sin is death. The thing is , if you are a Christian and you are sorry for the sin, you can ask God to forgive you and he will. You must be willing to turn away from that sin ans not do it any more. Jesus is our advocate with the Father and he will plead our case. The bible says we will be forgiven under these circumstances.

Read the book of Leviticus, chapters 18 and 19. It has all kinds of laws there regarding sexual issues.
Blasphemy, by the way, against the Holy Spirit, is called the only unforgivable sin (according to Jesus).
Good luck!

In Old Testament times, the punishment was death. However, Christ died for our sins so punishment and atonement is through him and not through the rules of the Old Testament.

Exclusion from heaven or in other words, hell.
Sorry for your conversion, but as you learn try to do it objectively. When you hear "take it by faith", it is a good time to start being skeptical.

As they arte all three sins.
As the punishment for sin is death.
It is rather obvious.

All this is summated in Galatians 5.
