God's design for natural sexual relationships is part of His plan. Homosexuality falsifies what God designed. Sin often means not only rejecting God but denying or rejecting how and why we are made. Though it may be considered acceptable by some today -- even in some churches -- it is not acceptable to God. And we need to take that seriously.

1 Corinthians 6:9 -10 categorically states (quoting from good news version): Do not fool yourselves, people who are immoral or who worship idols or are adulterers or HOMOSEXUAL perverts or who steal or are greedy or are drunkards or who slander others or are theives - non of these will possess God's Kingdom

Sexual sins were rampant in the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. (This is the origin of the word sodomy.) Despite warnings, they refused to repent. God destroyed those cities and it was recorded as a warning to all future generations. (Genesis 18:20-21, Genesis 19:4-5, 2 Peter 2:6) Some additional scriptures on homosexuality are found in:

Leviticus 18:22
Leviticus 20:13
Romans 1:26-27
and Genesis 19: 1-11



The price paid for homosexuality and other fornications are told in:
1 Corinthians 6:9-10
Jude 6-7
Romans 1:18
In spite of the growing secular humanist trend to think "it's ok to be gay," it's not a righteous lifestyle. Most vocal Christians are not homophobic, but are trying to share Christ's love for homosexuals and trying to keep them from horrific judgment.

Besides God said go into the world and multiply, I don't see how you can multiply as an homosexual

@poster
It is not jst a sin, but an Abomination. I hope you know what abomination is if you are an African? A crime against nature.
Now biblically let me show you what the bible said about gays and lesbian in Romans chapter 1.

25Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

26For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

27And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

28And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;

29Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,

30Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

31Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:

32Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

I hope that is clear enough to tell you that is a sin, not jst a sin, but an abomination. That is why the bible said such people are already giving over to repobrat mind. Meaning they have no more conscience.

Being gay is a SIN!!

It's in the Bible too.
Re: Is Being Gay A Sin? by 912(m): 8:57pm On May 31, 2010
@Ogaga4luv
I take it that you are an athiest, so I wonder why you are concerned about whether homosexuality is sin or not? Because as an atheist there is nothing like sin ( see the meaning of sin in bolded text below). There should only be things like moral good or wrong, criminal acts etc. Because with the word sin comes the belief that there is GOD.
If you don't beleive in GOD then you shouldn't be worried whether homosexuality is sin or not. So please allow christians and other religious people discuss the issue.

Meaning of sin
a. Deliberate disobedience to the known will of God. b. A condition of estrangement from God resulting from such disobedience.
