What does the New Testament say about homosexuality? Short answer: "Nothing"

[Into the Night]

@Margot is not alone, though. There is a swath of Christianity that attempts to get away from the OT by means of "Dispensations" or ages. The claim is that now we are no longer under the era of "Law" but rather are redeemed by Jesus.

You have already said you don't believe in Jesus Christ.

The OT represents a version of God that most modern Christians are uncomfortable with: one that hates homosexuals and calls them an abomination, one that is a fierce advocate for one tiny group of people and who encouraged them in the past to commit all manner of atrocities, one that has all manner of hyper-limited laws.

This is why the Marcionites were decreed a heresy in the Second Century.



That's not a good question to ask me. I'm an atheist. All I know is what the books say. And then there's Jesus famous quote in Matthew 5:18.

Personally if I were to believe in a God I would want one that was logically consistent. If God is real then he is unchanging and his rules are eternal. None of this "special cases" sort of stuff that just reeks of human machinations.

It's part of why I don't find any evidence for God to be compelling.

Homosexual behavior is an abomination. It is based on selfish desires. It accomplishes nothing, and can cause permanent damage to those that practice this and other sexually deviant behavior.

God is logically consistent, whether you believe in Him or not.

That's the only rational version of God that I can think of.

Paradox. Irrational. You cannot argue both sides of a paradox. You cannot deny the existence of God and claim the existence of God at the same time!

No I'm not !

Blatant lie. You ARE playing word games.

Your spin!

The Bible is not a 'spin', Maggot.

I believe Leviticus is Jewish Law! I believe the Jewish Rabbis, translation on Leviticus
"Abomination"! I believe No One can keep the Law,so their only chance of Salvation is the Blood of the Cross

Leviticus is NOT Jewish law. Leviticus is NOT a rabbi. You don't believe in Jesus Christ. Your word games won't work.
