Homosexuality is a sin that permeates our modern culture and is confronting the church aggressively, and I believe it's important that we understand what the Bible's perspective is on this matter of perversion of sexual relations. Homosexuality has been forbidden by God since the very beginning of the Old Testament.

00:00:00.000 So, as we know, homosexuality is a sin that permeates our modern culture, that's confronting
00:00:09.400 the church aggressively, and I believe it's important that we understand what the Bible's
00:00:14.160 perspective is on this matter of the perversion of sexual relations. So, first, to be clear,
00:00:20.280 this isn't a new position in Scripture. Homosexuality has been forbidden by God 0.99
00:00:24.940 since the very beginning of the Old Testament. 1.00
00:00:28.500 We go back even to Leviticus 18.22.
00:00:31.560 It says, quote, 0.85
00:00:32.540 You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. 1.00
00:00:35.680 It is an abomination. 0.85
00:00:36.980 That word abomination is one of the strongest words in Scripture.
00:00:41.160 It's almost hard to translate how intense that verbiage is.
00:00:47.240 But it says, 0.99
00:00:47.880 You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. 0.74
00:00:51.220 It is an abomination. 1.00
00:00:53.360 1 Corinthians 6, 9 through 10 says,
00:00:57.180 Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God?
00:01:03.260 Do not be deceived. 0.92
00:01:05.800 Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, 0.98
00:01:12.100 nor thieves, nor greedy, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers 0.99
00:01:16.160 will inherit the kingdom of God.
00:01:19.060 End quote.
00:01:19.780 1 Timothy 1.10. 0.95
00:01:21.080 the sexually immoral, quote, or comma, men who practice homosexuality, enslavers, liars, 0.88
00:01:29.240 perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound doctrine. Homosexuality is forbidden 0.99
00:01:35.340 cover to back cover in scripture. Kevin DeYoung, in his book, Homosexuality, writes,
00:01:42.220 quote, from the first chapters of the Bible to the Torah to the New Testament, there is no hint
00:01:47.740 that homosexuality is acceptable behavior for God's people. To think the Bible affirms
00:01:54.360 homosexuality takes more than special pleading. It requires a denial of the plain teaching of
00:02:01.500 scripture, end quote. Okay, guys, just, there's just a firm evidence, ultimate clarity. When you
00:02:10.680 look at the historical, cultural, grammatical context of homosexuality, there is no possible
00:02:16.880 way that you can twist and do theological gymnastics to make homosexuality an accepted
00:02:22.840 act for the Christian life.
