Why does the God of the Bible condemn homosexual acts?

There were Male Shrine Prostitutes in the OT book of Kings, that practice was old in Paul’s time. Many dismiss the idea based what seem to be personal or sociological reasons, not archaeological ones.

(So please, before you enforce celibacy on another, castrate yourself … or leave other people alone?)

Right?

Why do US military soldiers/officers have a chest full of medal ribbons when they probably haven't been in a combat situation? Are the medals for attendance, good behaviour, or long service perhaps?

Mt 19 is about Divorce. Jesus’ reference to Celibacy is that it is a gift from God and that not everyone can receive it.

Today we have Divorce courts, protections, child custody, child and spousal support.

Christ bore that, so, hard pass, thanks.

What CIA front organizations operated in the United States during the 1960s?

Men interpret Scriptures certain ways, but Jesus said we make void the Word by our tradition. Groupthink is tradition.

Those women were shunned, shamed, casted out and abandoned. The man had all the power and Jesus dared to challenge that. Even His disciples were astounded.

Christ bringing up Genesis is not Him being exclusionary, it is Him reminding these lecherous men that their wives are bound to their hearts.

Try to break free from the shackles of it and you will find yourself outside the fold Pastor.

If you embrace the fact that David “embraced” Jonathan and God was cool with it, you find that your concepts about what God “hates” get thrown out.

These were common in that culture in Athens, Corinth, Ephesus, Rome, and Crete, all places Paul went. They existed centuries after Paul.

What are some questions obviously just asked for sexual gratification?

In Romans chapter 1, verses 26–27 are cherry-picked out of the context which starts in verse 18. The context is Idolatry.

Does He?

Sodom and Gomorrah. Two cities completely filled with Gay men, young and old. Cities who recently had gone to war, who Abraham had rescued, who Lot went back to live among, who tried to rape two angels that they mistook for men … I guess.

Why do people hate Nickelback so much? What makes them different from other popular bands like Linkin Park, Green Day, etc.? Is it just because they're Canadian or what?

Him and I are good and that’s all I need.

Further Musings:

What? It’s okay for David to be both a man after God’s own heart and a Bloody Bipolar Adulterer who even desecrated what was holy, as long as he wasn’t Bisexual, right? Lol

Do most narcissists have good intentions as long as you are under their control?

Since Paul is who most homophobes run to in order to support their case, I went to him first, there really isn’t much left.

The truth is, the Old Testament and New Testaments say next to nothing and sexual orientation is a relatively new concept.

Inhospitable, loathsome, yet leave it to homophobia to twist it and miss it (the verse they use in Jude fails the test because of this).

Why can’t some Christians?

I am not a Jewish man. I’m am not under any part of the Law for my righteousness. To place myself under the Law for my righteous standing with God would be to put myself under the curse of the Law listed in Dt 28.

(What do you think he would write a line or two about?)

Do you ever feel like you are doing good, but would do better if people hadn’t blamed you or even bothered you? I have gotten lonely, but I always am up to something (creating my destiny).

Where?

Many believe Paul is writing about what he sees, temples that have male and female prostitutes engaged in ritual activities.

If anything, Paul was writing about male prostitutes, not LGBT.

Last, Leviticus. Two almost identical verses. One sex act (If translated correctly. The Hebrew words are sparse. People debate everything).

Why is it the Legalists always run to the Law?

No one knows.

What would explain Trump blaming Ukraine for starting the war with Russia?

No. Rape is violence, not sex. The story is about kidnapping into slavery and the abuse of strangers.

Answer to: Why does the God of the Bible condemn homosexual acts?

Homophobia is a billion dollar business for Corporate Christianity. Isn’t it?

Scholars and translators know this. The Greek translation of Arsenokoitace is uncertain. The word was coined by Paul (probably) or a contemporary of his. Any person who says they know exactly what Paul meant is lying (seriously).

Didn’t they read Galatians? Romans? James and his “Law of Liberty.” The entire New Testament? You can even find Grace in the Old Testament, some of the Rabbis have.
