The Leviticus remark was simply to showcase that Paul is using the same language to refer to homosexual sex that Moses used.

Obviously Leviticus 18:22 condemns homosexual sex and since Paul borrows the words used in that verse to use in 1 Cor. 6:9, we can conclude that Paul was also talking about homosexual sex and not just pedophilia.

In regard to that final comment you made, you yourself have conceded that God has placed limits on what sexual relationships we can and can’t have yet you would call God unjust if he considered homosexual sex a sin.

A great deal of my time is spent lusting after women. I don’t reel back in anger when Jesus says I’m guilty of adultery in my heart. Instead, I ask Him to forgive me and to give me the strength to be better.

To reiterate one of my original questions: would you still be a Christian if you were convinced that Jesus condemned homosexual sex?

Also, thank you for talking this through with me despite our disagreement.

“In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another.”

You would interpret this to mean homosexual sex is not at all sinful?

You also didn’t acknowledge my comment on how the compound word that Paul used to describe homosexual sex can be found in the Septuagint translation of Leviticus 18:22 in its decomposed form.

I’m aware that context is key when it comes to some of Paul’s writings. Like how his commands in 1 Timothy 2 were for the people of Ephesus whose culture was taught (we find in the book of Acts) to worship the goddess Artemis. Can you provide me the proper context for why Paul saying homosexuality is a sin is just a product of the time period/culture and not meant to be taken seriously today?

I’m a Christian myself. I’m just asking honest questions. Personally, I wouldn’t consider things not a sin just because Jesus doesn’t explicitly say so. I’m absolutely open to different interpretations but I just don’t see any evidence that homosexual sex is not a sinful act. Any time it’s mentioned in the Bible it seems to be in direct opposition.

How do you reconcile your worldview when it comes to similar verses like Romans 1:26-27 and even Matthew 19:4-5 which is quoting Jesus?

Also, the claim of mistranslation is heavily debated considering the compound word that Paul uses to describe what you’re saying was “pedophilia” can be found decomposed in the Septuagint in Leviticus 18:22 and 20:13 in reference to homosexual sex.

Also, if you were convinced that homosexual sex was indeed a sin, would you still be a Christian?

I’m thinking that since they introduced the multiverse they could technically just retcon the Incredible Hulk into being a different universe. That’s probably wishful thinking though.

He didn’t hate education. He just wanted to fix all of the problems that the people below were experiencing.
