You're revealing your ignorance again and making false assertions, as usual.
Jesus was a rabbi who adhered to the Mosaic Law as a religious Jew which, by default, condemned homosexuality in the strongest terms.
The Old Testament and Mosaic Law are clear that homosexuality was wrong for the Jews, it was wrong for gentiles who visited the Jews ("aliens"), it was an abomination that defiled the land when practiced by pagans who inhabited Canaan long before the Jews came, and Jesus Christ taught against it along with all other sexual immorality.
As Kyle Butts (M.A. in New Testament studies) explains at
apologetics press:
"Jesus did, in fact, speak against homosexuality. On numerous occasions, Jesus condemned the sins of adultery (Matthew 19:18), sexual immorality (Matthew 19:9) and fornication (Matthew 15:19). These terms describe any type of sexual intercourse that is not within the confines of a marriage ordained by God. Jesus then proceeded to define exactly what God views as a morally permissible marriage. He stated:
'Have you not read that He who made them at the beginning made them male and female, and said, “For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh”? So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate' (Matthew 19:4-6).
By defining marriage as between one male and one female, Jesus effectively condemned all other arrangements, including but not limited to one man and two women, one woman and two men, three men and one woman, three men and three women, one man and one man, one woman and one animal, etc. You can see the overwhelming logic of such. For Jesus to have to explicitly condemn every assortment of genders and numbers would be absurd. When He defined marriage between one man and one woman, He clearly showed that such an arrangement is the only one authorized by God."
Meaning, of course, "HeartLove" that you're simply propagating more falsehood.
The scriptures that condemn the sexual immorality of homosexuality are, in fact, condemning the sexual immorality of homosexuality. Your continuing and completely unsupported false assertion to the contrary is untrue and will always be untrue.
Loving God but rejecting His Holiness is not really loving God for
God's holiness is an extension of His very character. Genuine Christians love God first and foremost as Jesus commanded in Matthew 22 as His greatest commandment to all who would be His disciples stating:
"And He [Jesus Christ] said to him, 'You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the great and foremost commandment."
For the genuine Christian, we love God first and foremost... enough to die to ourselves and take on His holiness for our lives per His expressed will and commandment (
Galatians 5:24,
Romans 6:1-23, etc...).
Refusal to do so is, in fact, a witness that one does not truly love Holy God first and foremost but rather
loves the world and is demonstrating they are also unloving and disobedient to Christ Himself who stated in
John 14:15, "If you love me, keep my commandments."
It's the unrepentant sinner who mocks and scorns God's holiness and genuine Christians whom God Himself is presently sanctifying in preparation for glorification in eternity. It's the unrepentant sinner who is intolerant and full of bigotry against God's
holy people (see
1 Peter 2:9). Read 'The New Tolerance' by Josh McDowell in which he clearly demonstrates this.
Continually parroting the heresy of
antinomianism only shows that you yourself are unrepentant and in rebellion to God and His holiness "HeartLove."
Continually parroting that God loves sinners unconditionally while refusing to acknowledge that this love is for the purpose of transforming them into "new creatures in Christ" (see 2 Corinthians 5) spiritually regenerated by the Holy Spirit to live a holy life is to continually
misrepresent the Gospel.
Read
Galatians 5 and pay attention to versus 19-21:
"The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God."
When you exhort people to reject God's holiness and immerse themselves in "acts of the flesh," you literally act as an agent of the devil turning people away from the kingdom of God and its love AND holiness.
Now read verse 24, "Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires."
Sin is rebellion against God and His Word which God sent Christ to remedy. But, as was previously explained to you in
Hebrews 10, but which you immediately disregarded, "If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left."
What's happening all through scripture from Genesis to Revelations is that people's response to God's "unconditional love" conditions whether or not they receive it. Rejecting God's "unconditional love" by rejecting the Gospel, for example, will result in condemnation and hell. Universalism is a fallacy. And so rejecting God's holiness is to reject His "unconditional love" resulting in the same thing.
John puts it this way in 1 John 3:
"Everyone who practices sin also practices lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness. You know that He appeared in order to take away sins; and in Him there is no sin. No one who abides in Him sins; no one who sins has seen Him or knows Him. Little children, make sure no one deceives you; the one who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous; the one who practices sin is of the devil; for the devil has sinned from the beginning. The Son of God appeared for this purpose, to destroy the works of the devil. No one who is born of God practices sin, because His seed abides in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. By this the children of God and the children of the devil are obvious: anyone who does not practice righteousness is not of God..."
In context with the rest of scripture and the nuance of the original language, it's clear that John does not say this of every one who commits a sin, but of the habitual sinner (present participle).
Although the believer sometimes sins, sin is opposition to their spiritually regenerated new nature. Sin is no longer the ruling principle of their life. When they sin, they feel guilty and are naturally inclined to seek out deliverance, confession, forgiveness, and the ability to continue on with a life of sanctification.
But for the habitual sinner, sin is their ruling principle. Just as apostates discard sound doctrine proving that they never really belonged (
1 John 2:19), so the unholy continue in a life immersed in sin proving that they have not been spiritually regenerated by God with a new nature as a new creature in Christ.
Seeing and knowing are not two names for the same fact: to see Christ is to be spiritually conscious of His presence; to know Him is to recognize His character and His relation to ourselves.
God extended unconditional love to Adolph Hitler and then cast him into hell for eternity because of how Adolph responded to it.
Furthermore, God did not create sin. Rather, He created freewill creatures that chose to sin. Likewise, God did not create homosexuality or homosexuals. "He created them male and female..." and in Genesis 2:24 gave them the institution of marriage as absolutely monogamous. But, "men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire [orexis] toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error," (Romans 1:27).
The sin of Sodom was homosexuality not mere inhospitability.

What was the sin of Sodom and Gomorrah?
Apologetics Press - Sodom--Inhospitality or Homosexuality?
You're simply repeating your false assertions and heresy while promoting sexual immorality at CC and misrepresenting scripture and God's love and holiness in what really is a bizarre attempt to distort God's Word and design for humanity to justify a particular sexual immorality.
Read '
Homosexuality: Contemporary Claims Examined in Light of the Bible and Other Ancient Literature and Law' by
Dr. James D. Young.
That is incorrect. Jesus never condemned homosexuality ever in His ministry. The Scriptures many people feel condemn homosexuality, in effect, are not talking about homosexuality or condemning it but are speaking about something entirely different. However, people in their continued scorn, intolerance, and bigotry use inappropriate Scripture to marginalize those whom they don't understand but whom God created and nevertheless loves unconditionally that is whether they are Gay or Lesbian and whom they love because He does understand them and why they were created the way they were. A favorite Scripture of many is the Sodom and Gomorrah one that they present as God condemning homosexuality. He did not condemn homosexuality. This was about something entirely different that people should get clear. God does not condemn people who are born Gay or Lesbian because He created them too and knows them better than you or I and of their struggles and challenges they will inevitably face when confronted with bigoted people and their extremely narrow-minded way of thinking. What God very much dislikes is Promiscuity, not homosexuality. But that, of course, goes for both Gay and Straight individuals not just Gay.
