Dear Christians What Does The Bible Say About Homosexuality? Is Homosexuality A Sin?

GAYS

The Bible consistently tells us that homosexual activity is a sin (Genesis 19:1-13; Leviticus 18:22;20:13; Romans 1:26-27; 1 Corinthians 6:9). Romans 1:26-27 teaches specifically that homosexuality is a result of denying and disobeying God. When people continue in sin and unbelief, God “gives them over” to even more wicked and depraved sin in order to show them the futility and hopelessness of life apart from God. 1 Corinthians 6:9 proclaims that homosexual “offenders” will not inherit the kingdom of God.

God does not create a person with homosexual desires. The Bible tells us that people become homosexuals because of sin (Romans 1:24-27) and ultimately because of their own choice. A person may be born with a greater susceptibility to homosexuality, just as some people are born with a tendency to violence and other sins. That does not excuse the person’s choosing to sin by giving in to sinful desires. If a person is born with a greater susceptibility to anger/rage, does that make it right for him to give into those desires? Of course not! The same is true with homosexuality.

However, the Bible does not describe homosexuality as a “greater” sin than any other. All sin is offensive to God. Homosexuality is just one of the many things listed in 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 that will keep a person from the kingdom of God. According to the Bible, God’s forgiveness is just as available to a homosexual as it is to an adulterer, idol worshipper, murderer, thief, etc. God also promises the strength for victory over sin, including homosexuality, to all those who will believe in Jesus Christ for their salvation (1 Corinthians 6:11; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Philippians 4:13).

    How can we forget what the Bible is saying ,though you’re in line with what we have condemned but at the same time , Bible is the manual of life.

  2. Naphtali Ethiopia

    fire bun them out , lick shoot

  3. Ugochukwu Oguonu

    My people , it’s better you stand out for the truths and never give any room for people to doubt your believe because it could be dangerous. Homosexuality is a big sin before the Lord I have condemned it before my generations , oh Lord hear my voice , Amen !

  4. Ugochukwu Oguonu

    @ Chidi , please don’t tell me that you’re one of them because heaven is real and hell fire at the same time is equally a reality ! Why is it that people wants to claim Abraham’s blessings in that old Testament but when it comes law , they will tell that this is old testament ?

  5. U are ryt er. But

  6. A sin is a sin. We cannot change it. We can try & make excuses but…let us not b caught wanting.

  7. Homosexual is a wrong thin I coursed it!come out of it pls God May Not spear u if He did not spear sodom and Gomorrah who are u.

  8. Rutendo Lainah Tavarwisa Go and sit down. How many of the laws do you people take serious and keep? Do you know that in those days, they stone fornicators and adultrers.? who is stoning you today? Oh sorry, because it does favor many hypocritical christians.
    The same spirit told them that you should not wear what is meant for a man, but you changed it to suit your selfish selves, you should not use different materials for clothing and all sorts of rubbish you call rules. But then you guys choose to condemn any particular law u are not seriously breaking, but those ones u break, u try to cover it up. Stop asking me if i am a christian and to read bible. From childhood, i started playing with bible and up to seminary. You guys are hypocrites.
    Look at what Jesus did to that adultrous woman who they wanted to stone to death. He asked the accusers a simple question, let he without sin be the first to cast his stone. They all ran away.
    I swear, if Jesus is around today, bring homosexuals to him, he will only love and preach to them and not this stupid shouting of kill them, kill them, which everyone is shouting, even prostitutes and armed robbers and killers think homosexuals are worse.
    I do not encourage the act, but worse is for me to encourage any punishment for them. Allow them for God.

  9. Yes it is a sin its an abomination

  10. Luke 6:37…thou shall not judge, so u will not be judged. Homosexuality should not be actively promoted, so as not to currupt kids…but any man who wants to stick his thing into the toilet or electric socket, should be free to do so!

  11. Rutendo Lainah Tavarwisa you guys should stop deceiving yourselves. What do you mean by spiritual eyes. Thats the statement used to weaken baby christians or people who do not study the book called bible. Spiritual eyes indeed. Your spiritual eyes did not tell you that you should not wear what is meant for a man? Some churches today have useless doctrines instituted by their pastors, this was how those old prophets and apostles instituted those laws because people believed they were the mouth piece of God even when they are exercizing their own human knowledge in explaining things.

  12. Thabiso Robert Mabote

    This page is mal… *how many times should I tell you oans?* Shawn, Helmer… #Nigerians #NoRacism! #NoToHomosexuality

  13. Mmmmm lord have mercy

  14. Jummai Obekpa why wont there be mistake in the bible. Was it written by God, or was every single word there from the mouth of God.
    Bible contains history written by men like u and i, so they are bound to make mistakes and for sure, there are contracdictions in some story lines. Do not see bible as if it is all about every thing God said or was quoted to have said to his prophet. It contains many of what i call history. So, there are errors and contradictions. but that is normal.

  15. Can you just unlike the page so you don’t drag us into this MALness U0001f605

  16. Fools God wil punish you

  17. Nyaboke Camillah

    Mhh… forgive them father!!!

  25. Osawaru Osa's RedandYellow

    Do you know that if you kill an homosexual it’s not a sin because the bible say if you kill an homosexual their blood will be on their head

  26. Thabiso Robert Mabote

    Noooooooo. I didn’t.

  27. Come again? Didn’t what?

  28. Thabiso Robert Mabote

    I didn’t follow that procedure.

  29. I.dont.judge. no..one…But.if my. Father. was. .homosexual….never born..To.see. the. Sunligt…
    Yep

  30. Absolutely wrong and clear sin.

  31. Rutendo Lainah Tavarwisa my point is that we should do away with hypocrisy. Why condemn others to death due to sin while we also commit other forms of sin. And we should practice what jesus preached, which is love. Jesus died for homosexuals, so they can repent. if we kill them, when they have not committed any sin that deserves death, what good have we achieved?

  32. HAHAHA this guy Ikenna thinks he speaks for the entire African continent.

  33. Fools do that

  34. Williams Cyrus Edidiong

  39. Rutendo Lainah Tavarwisa

  43. Bolo Internationall Pyne

    Ediri D. Ados. I guess hypocrisy is ok with you but it is not ok with some of us. So what does the bible say about stealing, oh l mean corruption/lying , ritual killings and so on??? And people wonder how can so many people fall victims to 419!!

    If eve is the product of adam then incest was considered, okay? There is a difference between, love and sex.

  52. Melvin Satterwhite Jr

    and, incest was considered, “normal”?

  53. Evans Agyiba Gibbah

    It has written in the bible.pray to God to forgive our sin.

  54. Relebohile Mabona

    The bible has 6 admonishments for homosexuals & 362 for heterosexuals. not that God hates heterosexuals, they just need more supervision. most Nigerian males have their hair trimmed including the hair around temples which is forbidden by Lev. 19:27. How should they die?
    Exodus 21:7 allows slavery. As a black guy from Africa, I’d like to buy sm Canadians. My white friends say it can’t work like that. I disagree. in this modern day & age, what do you think would be a fair price?
    My neighbour insists on working on a sabbath & should be put to death according to Exodus 35:2 . Am I morally obligated to kill him my self or should I call the police to do it?
    Lev 11:10 says eating shellfish is an abomination. my friends say it’s a lesser abomination. I disagree.
    Lev 15:19-24 disapproves of sleeping with my wife during her menstrual uncleanliness. I tried to explain to her but she takes am offence. should I ignore her?
    you may not approach the alter of god with a defect in the eyes. I have to admit I wear glasses. does my vision have to be 20/20 or is there am wiggle room here?

  55. XTankelvin Trentz Orji

    The punishments still applies,. Don’t justify any sin here and condemn another,Every soul that sins nd refuses repentance shall face condemnation. We all have to repent and embrace Christ Jesus. God bless you all

  56. Ikenna Iwuchukwu

    @ Abdulmalik Muhammad Udaa pls don’t comment on what you don’t know?! How did Christianity cause it! It seems you are ignorant and lack exposure. Some Muslim men from north that practice homosexual acts or those Alhajis from the northern part of Nigeria that are into gay act, are they not Muslims?! Please don’t paint Christians black, gay acts are found in all religion! Muslims with their hypocrisy!!!

  57. Stephen Oghenevware Oremu

    We know He paid for it so we won’t have to live in it any more. God loves them too! He wants them to be delivered from this bondage.

  58. “Jesus hath paid the prize for all our punishment with his own blood” lol, so Jesus didn’t pay for homosexuality, but paid for all other punishments?

  59. Dem boy fi DEAD

  60. Oge ST Oparaejike

    Oh no so disgusting

  61. Helmer Anderson ES Lisboa

    * I won’t comment*

  62. Yemight Hafolabi

    Not a sin but crime! Ask Google correct answer. Iranu

  63. An abomination and a sin against nature and humanity

  64. Odunsi Ibrahim,your comments shows how foolish you are .have you ever heard that a Christian killed some one And said Bible ask him or her to do so.it’s your evil religion(Islam) that kills ,mutilate and commit other atrocities in the name of your useless Alah.so better repent and accept Christ today that you may have peace otherwise you will rost in hell like your fake prophet muhammed

  65. Agada Onefiochi Matthew

    is against the Bible and a sin….God forbids it!!

  66. Janis J Shepherd Harewood

    Fed son God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah for that

    Kill them !

  69. Good. We don’t want to hear your drunk ass here U0001f440U0001f440U0001f440

  70. As a Roman Catholic, Attitude towards Homosexuality is considered as a sin. It goes againt the natural law of God and it goes against the Bible. Even homosexual acts are known to be sinful too. Therefore, as a Christian it condems the bible as it teaches in Mark’s Gospel that it is wrong. But God loves evryone to His people #peace

  71. Bone U0001f356 to Bone… Shame!!!

  72. It’s just a book. WWJD?

  73. I am a christrian so There is no bad religion, there are just bad people. Therefore Muslims do not carry out terrorist attacks.

  74. He paid for our sins doesn’t mean we should remain in sin and remember what He said to a woman in Bible caught on the act of fornication when she was about to subject to death and JESUS discharged her and told her to sin no more. My brother I don’t know the angle you are coming from but one thing is certain and wages of sin is nothing but death says the word of God. Thanks.

  75. Brenda Rocquemore

    Why do sinners always bring this up and say it’s a sin and they sin in all other types of ways?

  76. Brenda Rocquemore

    Why are some people so quick to say homosexuality is a sin when they do everything else that is sinful too. People need to stop being hypocritical.

  77. Can any Christian made it Clare for Mie?? About Christian ladies dah walked on the street naked cos we will not call does kind of materials they use to cover there body cloth

  78. Matthew David Snr

    Is a capital SIN

  79. Chinwendu Onyegbunam

    Yes its a sin

  80. Matthew David Snr

    Indecent dressing is a sin before God

  81. You’re so correct Bolo Internationall Pyne

  82. Loveth Iriagbonse Oviasogie

    Its not only a sin its a curse

  83. I think we should allow this homosexuality to exist cos it will prevent people fools to be born….C’mon Bible or not, the thing is evil U0001f608

  84. Ibraheem Muhammad

    Brenda wha are u insinuating

  85. Bolo Internationall Pyne

    Thanks Lucky oparah

  86. get are life

  87. You too you are being a hypocrite Bolo Internationall Pyne why do you want to justify sin?

  88. I think you don’t know what sin is….doing adultery is not sin smoking is not sin lying is not sin all what you mentioned is not sin that is attributes of sin… they is only one sin that is unbelief.
    If you believe the word of God you don’t do those things.

  89. Go ask goggle

  90. LaGuardia Shanika Simmons

    It sure is

  91. Japhetklef Anokwuru

    Nor be their clear eye God na go fit help them

  92. Jubba Brooklyn Richards

    Liviticus 20 : 13

  93. Bolo Internationall Pyne

    Luck Chinzo l justified no sin. I stated fact. The bible already told us what behaviors are consider sinful. But humans want to pick which sin are worst then others. You need to go and look up the definition of HYPOCRITES/ HYPOCRISY, because you are using it in the wrong context.

  94. Bolo Internationall Pyne

    Hahaha ” enjoy bleaching”

  95. Yes it is mentioned in the Bible it’s a sin

  96. lol, ain’t my ass.lol..let god judge..lol..

  97. Some people read the bible and understand it the way they want to understand Bolo Internationall Pyne, they need to go ask God for understanding of His word. I totally agree with the statement you made, furthermore let God be the judge of everyone.
    I believe that homosexual or not, we should treat everyone the same and leave the rest for God to handle.
    It doesn’t care what unlawful act ppl commit it all spells the same way, SIN.

  98. Oh yes its a sin and judging its a sin too..

  99. Yes, homosexual is a sin. That was the reason why God destroy Sodom and Gomorrah. The name of the offense was called sodomy!
