Many people become confused on this issue when self-confessed homosexuals are appointed as religious leaders and some Christian countries legalise same-sex marriages. What is the Bible's viewpoint?
Remember that God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah for homosexuality(Gen 19:4,5,13). The Mosaic Law also condemns it , as well as cross-gender dressing which usually leads to it (Lev. 18:22 &2o:13 ;Deut. 22:5) . The New Testament supports this viewpoint at 1 Cor. 6:9,1o ; Rom. 1:26,27, etc. Homosexuals can change , as some of the Corinthians did.(1 Cor. 6 : 11).
Secondly, homosexuality comes with a lot of health problems such as HIV/AIDS and leaking anuses. The anus is not as large and pliable as a woman's vagina. God has his reasons for creating us "male and female"(Matthew 19:4-6).
Thirdly, homosexual unions cannot produce children. This is why many gay couples adopt other people's children, have children outside the relationship,etc. Imagine what will happen if everybody becomes a homosexual.
God's laws are for our own good (Isaiah 48:17). Like the Corinthian Christian, you can change. Pray to God for help, be determined to change, and leave bad associations for wholesome ones. (PROVERBS 13:2O;HEBREWS 1O:24,25). God bless you as you do so.
