Can anyone tell me where they are? Maybe interpret them for me. I am a homosexual and I would like to read these verses for myself. Especially in the New Testament.

There is nothing in the new testament about homosexuality but in the Old Testament it's Genesis 19:4-29, Leviticus 18 and 21, Romans 1:18-32, 1 Timothy 1:10, 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 and Jude 1:7.

Leviticus 18:22
Colossians 3:5-6
2 Timothy 3:1-3

To be honest, the one in the Old Testament is the most direct in terms of homosexuality.

In terms of Colossians, you need to look at the work inordinate. Inordinate means not ordained and affection is quite obvious. Inordinate affection doesn't mean just homosexuality, though. It also means sex before marriage, lust, adultery and so forth.

2 Timothy talks about the last days and some of the things that will be happening. Natural affection refers specifically to marriage and sexual intercourse between a man and a woman.

Now, each of these are open to interpretation. Be careful how you interpret, though, more often than not it is better to interpret on the side of being a bit too strict.

Here. This should be enough self-righteous prejudice for ya!

Leviticus 18:22
You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination.

Leviticus 20:13
If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them.

1 Corinthians 6:9-10
Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.

Romans 1:26-27
Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.




EDIT: The person above me obviously hasn't read the NT. The New Testament makes mention of homosexuals. Take a look at the verses cited above (Corinthians and Romans)

There are a couple in the OT, but the one Christians cite from the New Testament is in Romans 1:26. They don't go on to read the next few verses though:

"Therefore, anyone of you who judges is without excuse. For when you judge another, you condemn yourself, since you, the judge, do the same things." Romans 2:1

Peace to you.

Gen. 19:1-29.

Lev. 18:22 "And you must not lie down with a male the same as you lie down with a woman. It is a detestable thing."

Lev. 20:13 "And when a man lies down with a male the same as one lies down with a woman, both of them have done a detestable thing. They should be put to death without fail. Their own blood is upon them."

The Christian Greek Scriptures are just as explicit as to how detestable homosexuality is in the sight of God: “That is why God gave them up to disgraceful sexual appetites, for both their females changed the natural use of themselves into one contrary to nature; and likewise even the males left the natural use of the female and became violently inflamed in their lust toward one another, males with males, working what is obscene and receiving in themselves the full recompense, which was due for their error . . . those which was due for their error . . . those practicing such things are deserving of death.”

1 Cor. 6:9 -10"What! Do you not know that unrighteous persons will not inherit God’s kingdom? DO NOT BE MISLED. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men kept for unnatural purposes, nor men who lie with men, nor thieves, nor greedy persons, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit God’s kingdom.

Homosexuality is a sin because God made Adam then He made Eve to be his mate so that's God's natural order...If you read 1Corinthian 6: 9 and 10 you will see homosexuals and sodomites others sinners so it is a sin against you own body and abomination to God.... But God loves you and so do we all . God despises the sin not the sinner and so is with Christians...
