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

Ron Miller, professor of religious studies, Lake Forest College:

It is important to remember that there was no general word for same-sex relations in Greek vocabulary at the time the New Testament authors were writing. A word inclusive of all same-sex relations does not occur in any language until the nineteenth century. So, the shortest and, strictly speaking, most accurate answer to the question “What does the bible say about homosexuality?” is “Nothing”. The current English-language Bibles translating these words as “homosexuals” are thus both incorrect and misleading.

If Paul intended to refer to same-sex relations in using the terms found in 1 Corinthians 6:9-11, then he was making an unwarranted generalization. The emphasis of the passage is clearly on deliberate, destructive behavior, not on one’s personal sexual preferences. We know of no instance where Jesus or Paul dealt with a loving, committed same-sex couple and therefore have no solid basis for conjecturing about their possible views of such a relationship.

Since your "most accurate answer," regarding the New Testament's position on homosexuality is "nothing," you are 100% wrong. Notice the scripture below.

Romans 1:26​

"That is why God gave them over to disgraceful sexual passion, for their females changed the natural use of themselves into one contrary to nature;

Romans 1:27​

likewise also the males left the natural use of the female and became violently inflamed in their lust toward one another, males with males, working what is obscene and receiving in themselves the full penalty, which was due for their error."


Let me know when you're ready, and I will provide you with more scriptures from the Christian Greek Scriptures aka New Testament that condemn homosexuality.


Your reference source, Ron Miller, should be embarrassed to call himself professor of religious studies.

Romans was written by Paul the Prude. Jesus never said anything about it.

Here's a list of what Jesus said about bank robbery, satellite dishes, and asparagus:







End of list.

I know faggots are all mentally ill, but they never were nearly as important as they think they are now. Ancient era Jews didn't politicize sexual fetishism, they just got rid of them, locked the sick freaks in closets, and went about more important business.
