If homosexuality is a sin, then why didn't Jesus say anything about it?

[Ahwatukee]

Jesus addressed many issues and many sins and, yet, he never said a thing about this topic.

Hello Blanche,

First of all, Jesus did in fact speak regarding this sin in referring to sexual immorality, which means of every type. And secondly, the word of God states that "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work." This means that the prophets and the apostles where writing and speaking through the Holy Spirit, which means that God is the author of His word. So yes, Jesus did speak about homosexuality. Here are a couple of examples:

"For this reason God gave them over to dishonorable passions. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. Likewise, the men abandoned natural relations with women and burned with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error."

"Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things are worthy of death, they not only continue to do these things, but also approve of those who practice them." - Rom.1:26-27, 32

"In like manner, Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them, who indulged in sexual immorality and pursued strange flesh, are on display as an example of those who sustain the punishment of eternal fire. " - Jude 7

These are just examples of scriptures which are God-breathed and there are many, many more regarding this subject.

Another unnecessary post. Arguing a position doesn't make a person a participant of that position. There is wisdom in exploring both sides of a position, if only to bolster your own. If you understand your enemy, you can fight that enemy more effectively. You don't have to be one to consider one's position.

Oh really? Do you go into Christian chat sites arguing for the pro gay movement? Is that what you do?

I am straight. I never chose. I believe it is not a choice. Not one I ever made and not one that anyone can make, or would want to make. That means it is not their fault. So many sins out there where people are harming others and we choose this particular thing to be obsessed with. Why???

Because it hurts body of Jesus.

"Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? Never! 16 Or do you not know that he who is joined to a prostitute becomes one body with her? For, as it is written, “The two will become one flesh.” 17 But he who is joined to the Lord becomes one spirit with him. 18 Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body. 19 Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, 20 for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body."

You have one misconception, all sex is a choice, you chose the partner you will be with, as the process moves on you will make a chose if you will proceed to the next level, if things are enjoyable you make the chose to go all the way. After you have fulfilled the passion of ones lust, you make another chose of weather you will chose to do it again, then the chose process starts all over again, which inclused the chose of the sex of that partner so whatever you sexual chose you is your chose because it takes a sexual act to determ what your sexual orintation is.

There are namy Christian that one thing that the Lord hate and make that thier driving force, for many of them if is because they have those same thoughts and it sarce them because they think they are holy. When we are all depraved sinners saved or justified by God's grace and grace alone, not by one work that they have done but since they rely on works sin scares them because in thier religious mind they are not sinner. Believe me everyone of us is capable of committing the most heinous sins before the Lord God, but by the grace of God we do not.

It does not matter what a persons sin is we are not told to call people out for those sins. We are called to preach the Gospel or good news and for people to understand the good news they need to be told the bad news, which is we have all broken God's Law the Ten Commandments and stand guilty under God's judgement are wrath destined for eternal fire. BUT God being rich in mercy (He took pity on us) has sent His Son to fulfill the Law so that His people can call on His name and be saved.

I think homosexuals just want equal rights in a supposedly free and democratic society.

I would encourage you to do some research... there is a dark agenda behind the alphabet soup movement. Check out a YouTube channel called Mass Resistance for more information.

He stated on several occasions concerning the day of judgement by using Sodom and Ghomorrow.

what do we know Sodom and Ghomorrow for?

Sodomy, Homosexuality, Lesbianism, and most likely Beastialitality.

If I was a Jew when Yeshua walked the earth while speaking of Sodom and Ghomorrow, I would assume He meant Sodomy, Homosexuality, Lesbianism, and most likely Beastialitality!!

I see nothing of the fruit of the Spirit in your posts. If you claim to be Christian and the fruit is missing, something is wrong. Go think on that for a while instead of just spewing vitriol.

Can you post the Scripture that says sinners are the enemy of the body of Christ?

I would encourage you to read Ezekiel 16.

I would do so if I made that assertion; however, I didn't.

All science ... all Medical associations worldwide are propagating a myth. I guess Evolution is a myth as well. Well, whatever you have to do to keep your "faith" intact, I guess.

So you are saying that straight people never chose, but homosexuals DID choose? huh?? And why choose something that would cause you so much pain and misery due to others? Makes no sense. The whole choice thng is bs.

you use the computer, you drive a car, you use devices all around your home, those are from scientific methods by the calculations of mathematics. not ALL science is bad. if you actually knew science, you would know it proves God is real without the use of scripture!!

 

[Dino246]

You are wrong as usual.

I take this whence it comes.

 

[GodisONE]

I would encourage you to read Ezekiel 16.

Thank You!!

but you have never read in your Bible Christ speaking about Sodom and Ghomorow?

and knowing what happened to those cities, you don't think of the sins when you read those cities names?

excellent read!!

Thank You!!

I'm well aware that Sodom and Gomorrah are mentioned several times as examples of God's wrath, and of the sins for which they were known. However, it is enlightening that when God identifies the sin, it is not what most people think it is. That doesn't make the Genesis 19 activity any less heinous or deserving of judgment.

See, you gay fascists hate our American system based on the Declaration of Independence which states our rights come from God who never granted "gay rights". You are an anti God anti American fascist.

You are wrong. The American system is based on the US constitution. A document that was designed to accommodate and serve all US citizens.

Are you a gay activist? Why are you using the same gay activist arguments they always use? You are wrong again. Sodom was destroyed because of their gayness:
What happened to Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities near them is an example for us of the punishment of eternal fire. The people of these cities suffered the same fate that God’s people and the angels did, because they committed sexual sins and engaged in homosexual activities.
Jude 1:7 GW

You are wrong. The American system is based on the Declaration of Independence. Abraham Lincoln taught us so because without it the Constitution can be used to justify such things as slavery. You gay fascists hate the Declaration of Independence which says our rights come from God, not 5 out of 4 Supreme court judges.

My my, you are in an unusually foul mood today. However, your ire is misplaced. Instead of shooting back at me, go check out Mass Resistance on YouTube for yourself.

"Behold, this was the guilt of your sister Sodom: she and her daughters had pride, excess of food, and prosperous ease, but did not aid the poor and needy. 50 They were haughty and did an abomination before me. So I removed them, when I saw it." (Eze 16:49-50).

There is no contradiction between Ezekiel and Jude.

Funny how you call names . I believe you are a bit conflicted.
Yes the USC can be corrected over time to take care of injustices.

Are you claiming homosexuality wasn't one of those many sins for what Sodom and Gomorrah were judged?
It is from that Canaanite city of Sodom that we get the words Sodomy and Sodomite.
