The sins of homosexuality

 

 I accepted the fact years ago that homosexuality is a sin and that I cannot live a life pleasing to God and make it to Heaven if I engage in that sin. Too many people twist and ignore Scripture to excuse this one sin of many, but I have recently been thinking about the other sins of homosexuality. Yes, sins plural. Even if you toss out what the Bible says about homosexuality, there are other sins attached to it that you cannot toss out unless you also toss them out for heterosexuals:

1) Lust. Lust is not confined to heterosexuals. Gay people also lust just as much or more as heterosexuals, and the Bible condemns lust.

2) Pride. The Bible condemns the sin of pride more than sexual sins, and maybe even more than other sins throughout the Bible. One doesn't have to look very far to see the gay community is based on pride. Pride of body, out and proud, gay pride parades...... if pride is as bad of a sin as the Bible says it is, then it is a sin that runs rampant in the gay community.

3) Idolatry. Worship of the male body is very prevalent and a big part of the gay male scene. Many gay guys are looking for sex and want guys who have the perfect bodies. Personality and character are often not what they are looking for, but instead looks. Gay guys are obsessed with the male body.

And also, putting one's sexual desires above God is breaking the commandment of not having any gods before Him, for it is setting one's own desires and sexuality more important than God Himself.

4) Envy. Envy is rooted deeply in same-sex attraction, or vice-versa. Gay guys see what they want to be in other guys and want it. Guys who are hairy envy those who are smooth. Smooth guys envy those who are hairy. Bigger built guys envy smaller ones, guys envy penis size,  and so forth. They envy other guys' boyfriends and all things about other guys.

5) Fornication. Unless you also toss out every verse the Bible has about sexual sin and fornication - which is all sex outside of marriage - then the majority of gay people are guilty of that sin regardless of what you believe about homosexuality.... for there is a small minority of gay people who marry.....the rest of the sexually active ones are committing fornication....which is a sin.

6) Adultery. I was amazed and shocked at the amount of married guys who are out there on gay hook up sites and apps, in adult bookstores looking for sex with other guys, and even gay bath houses. Jesus Himself condemned adultery in the Gospels, and yes,,,, that includes a married guy having sex with another guy.

 And....if you're going to accept gay marriage, then any gay married couple who has in a third or more for fun, or who cheats on each other, is guilty of adultery....... and it happens. Monogamy is even rarer among gay people than heterosexuals.

7) Greed. Go in a gay bar, a gay bath house. or anywhere else where there are several gay men. Then wait until a hot young guy walks in. Guys will be all over him like flies on honey.

8) Gluttony. It is an inconvenient truth, but gay guys are much more promiscuous than their heterosexual counterparts.....they have sex often and with multiple partners. It is misconception that gluttony refers to overeating, but it refers to excess...... and you will find a lot of excess in the gay community.

 
  There are other sins associated with homosexuality, such as disobedience/not keeping God's laws, but this is a list of sins that are associated with it if you are trying to say homosexuality is a sin. I believe it is nearly impossible - actually it is impossible - to live in homosexuality/gay lifestyle and not be guilty of some or most of these sins. So if you're going to toss out what the Bible says about homosexuality, you are going to have to toss these out also.
