Leviticus 18:22-25 – “‘Do not have sexual relations with a man
as one does with a woman; that is detestable. “‘Do not have sexual relations
with an animal and defile yourself with it. A woman must not present herself to
an animal to have sexual relations with it; that is a perversion. “‘Do
not defile yourselves in any of these ways, because this is how the nations
that I am going to drive out before you became defiled. Even the land was
defiled; so I
punished it for its sin, and the land vomited out its inhabitants.
Romans
1:27 – In the same way the men also
abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one
another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves
the due penalty for their error.
1 Corinthians 6:9-10 – Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the
kingdom of God? Do not be
deceived: Neither
the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men nor thieves
nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
Deuteronomy 21:23 – If someone guilty of a capital offense is put to death and their body is exposed on a pole, you
must not leave the body hanging on the pole overnight. Be sure to bury it that same day, because anyone who is hung on a pole is
under God’s curse. You must
not desecrate the land
the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance.
Application:
- · Homosexual practice is sinful in God’s eyes. The Old Testament also condemns the practice.
- · People who engage in adultery, male prostitution and homosexuality, as well as the other offenders, are explicitly excluded from God’s kingdom.
- · Christ accepted the full punishment of our sins, thus becoming a curse for us.
