What the Bible Says About
Homosexuality
Some people may
genuinely struggle with confusion regarding their sexual feelings. Others
openly embrace alternative life-styles such as homosexuality. Still others
boldly act and dress as one of the opposite sex. Some undergo sex-change
operations. But what does the Bible says about Homosexuality ; first let us define homosexuality,
Homosexuality is sexual activity with a member of the same sex, no wonder here in Jude 7 we can feel Jehovah’s intensity of anger to the Sodomites and Gomorannites, I encourage You to open
the said chapter Jude 7 “ In the same
manner Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them also gave themselves over
to gross sexual immorality and pursued unnatural fleshly desires, they are placed before us as a warning example by undergoing judicial punishment of everlasting
fire” punishment of everlasting fire means that all of them are abound to eternal destruction
with no resurrection hope. Other
reason why God adamantly opposed
homosexuality, is because He is the Author of the universal Law of nature. He knows our Physical, emotional, and spiritual makeup. He opposes homosexuality because, among other things it does not benefit the individual. To confirm let us consult our Bible here in
Romans 1:24-27 “Therefore God, in
keeping with the desires of their hearts, gave them up to uncleanness, that
their bodies might be dishonored among them, 25 even those who exchanged the truth of God for the
lie and venerated and rendered sacred service to the creation rather than the
One who created, who is blessed forever. Amen. 26 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; 27 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” Note, homosexuality is
called not only “disgraceful”, “obscene,” and “not fitting” but also “contrary
to nature”, because they involve sexual activity that was not intended by our
Creator. Homosexual acts cannot produce cannot produce offspring. The Bible compares
homosexual activity to the sexual relations that rebellious angels, who came to
be known as demons, had with women before the Deluge of Noah’s day . ( Genesis
6:4, 19:4,5 ) God views both acts as unnatural.
So from the verses we read the Bible hates the act of Homosexuality but
does not condemn the person. As Christians we should also hate the act but we
should not be homophobic, we need to preach to all sort’s of men as what the
Bible also assigned as to do so, enable for them to learn about the accurate
knowledge of the truth and hopefully
they would repent and be cleansed
in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ and with
the spirit of our God.
