What Does The Bible Say About Homosexuality?
By Adam Bartlett

There is a strong drive in society today trying to sway the minds of people that homosexuality is not only hereditary but should be accepted as an alternative lifestyle. The homosexual movement is making powerful efforts to convince society that it is a normal way of life. The media and Hollywood has jumped on the band wagon with them by using movies, TV shows, and tabloids to promote this perverseness. Regardless of what popular opinion has to say the Word of God is clear that it is an Abomination to God and a SIN.

Romans 1:24-27
Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves,
25. who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
26. For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature.
27. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.

Leviticus 18:22
You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination.

Leviticus 20:13
If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them.

1 Corinthians 6:9-10
Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, 10. Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.

Deuteronomy 22:5
A woman shall not wear anything that pertains to a man, nor shall a man put on a woman's garment, for all who do so are an abomination to the LORD your God.

Jude 7
...as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them in a similar manner to these, having given themselves over to sexual immorality and gone after strange flesh, are set forth as an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

1 Timothy 1:9-10
...knowing this: that the law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and for sinners, for the unholy and profane...10. for fornicators, for sodomites...

Colossians 3:5-6
Therefore put to death your members which are on the earth: fornication, uncleanness, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry. 6. Because of these things the wrath of God is coming upon the sons of disobedience.


It is abundantly clear in the Bible that God views these acts as an Abomination and most certainly "SIN." That also clears up the false claims by homosexuals that it is hereditary because that would be claiming that God made them that way and God cannot do that. God does not lie and God will not "make" someone have the very attributes that He says are detestable and sinful.

**The following are facts that the Homosexual movement does not want made public:**

Statistics You Should Know: It's Not Just Holding Hands
65% of all reported AIDS cases among males in the United States since 1981 have been men engaged in homosexual behavior. (Center for Disease Control HIV/AIDS Surveillance Report, Vol. 9, No. 2, May, 1998)
Homosexuals account for an overwhelmingly disproportionate number of cases of Gonorrhea, Hepatitis A, and Hepatitis B. (JAMA, 1986)
40% report they have had more than 40 partners; 24% report they have had more than 100 partners. (genre Magazine, 10/96)
52% report they have had sex in a public park; 46% report they have had sex in a public bathroom. (genre Magazine, 10/96)
32% report they had "tied each other up" during sex, a form of sadomasochism. (genre Magazine, 10/96)


Seven DEMANDS of the Homosexual Agenda:
Set forth and distributed at the "Gay Pride" March on Washington, D.C., April 25, 1993


Demand the repeal of all sodomy laws and legalization of all forms of sexual expression. (Including pedophilia, changing age of consent laws to allow sex with youth.)
Demand defense budget funds be diverted to cover AIDS patients' medical expenses, and taxpayer funding of sex change operations.
Demand the legalization of same sex marriages, and legalization of adoption, custody, and foster care within these structures.
Demand the full inclusion of lesbians, homosexual men, bisexuals and trans-genders in education and childcare.
Demand that contraceptives and abortion services be made available to all persons, regardless of age.
Demand taxpayer funding for artificial insemination of lesbians and bisexuals. Forbid religious based concerns regarding homosexuality from being expressed [as is already the case on radio & TV in Canada].
Demand that organizations, such as Boy Scouts, be required to accept homosexual scoutmasters.


The Deceptive Portrayal
In their blueprint for homosexual activism, After the Ball, Marshall Kirk and Hunter Madsen teach that activists must "desensitize straights to gays and gayness, inundate them in a continuous flow of gay-related advertising." They advocate that the portrayal of homosexuals should be positive and non-threatening, "First you get your foot in the door, by being as similar as possible. Then, and only then-when your one little difference is finally accepted-can you start dragging in your other peculiarities, one by one."

Homosexual Deception
"In the early stages of any campaign to reach straight America, the masses should not be shocked and repelled by premature exposure to homosexual behavior itself. Instead, the imagery of sex should be downplayed and gay-rights should be reduced to an abstract social question as much as possible. First, let the camel get his nose inside the tent - and only later his unsightly derriere!" Marshall Kirk, Erastes Pill, The Overhauling of Straight America

Forced Acceptance
When a diversity consultant in 1994 asked whether some employees might be reluctant to undergo sensitivity training on homosexuality, openly homosexual U.S. Patents and Trademark Commissioner Bruce Lehmen replied: It's got to be forced down their throats. If they want to be bigots, they can go work for someone else's department. Washington Times, 9/8/94

Free Speech - Outlawed!
Last year the California Legislature voted to allow citizens to use public, taxpayer money to sue Christian organizations (like radio stations or schools) that refer to homosexuality as a sin. (You know, like in the Bible?) This bill, AB257, actually passed in both Houses, only to be vetoed by outgoing Governor Pete Wilson. Another bill, AB310, would have put churches under state regulation, so they would be forced to hire homosexuals.

Homosexuality, Mental Illness, and the American Psychiatric Association
In 1973, the APA removed Homosexuality from its diagnostic category of mental illnesses. This action came not as a result of new research and findings, but was ultimately brought about by militant protest staged by activists at the APA annual convention. In other words, intimidation was a key motivation. In fact, only 16% of the entire APA membership actually voted in favor of the radical change. Homosexuality, Dr. James Mallory, Head of Psychiatric unit - Rapha Center, Atlanta, Ga.; Ronald Bayer, Homosexuality and American Psychiatry: The Politics of Diagnosis (N.Y.: Basic Books, 1981), 101-54; Wm. Dannemeyer, Shadow in the Land (San Fran.: Ignatius Press, 1989), 24-39.

Homosexuality is Not a Civil Right
The assertion that homosexuals are a true minority group is false. Minority status has been determined by the U.S. Supreme Court Based on three criteria:

Economic Deprivation - NO! Those engaged in the homosexual lifestyle are among the most advantaged people in the U.S. On average, they have a higher per capita income than heterosexuals, and higher household incomes. (W.S. Journal, 2/10/89; N.Y. Times, 8/22/90).

Political Powerlessness - NO! Homosexuals demonstrate great influential political power far beyond their actual numbers. The Human Rights Campaign Fund has annually donated millions of dollars to candidates, more than most other non-corporate PACs. (The Economist, 4/24/93) Media news and entertainment coverage is overwhelmingly favorable. (Turn your TV on!)

Immutable Characteristics - NO! Minority groups share unchangeable, benign, non-behavioral traits such as race, ethnicity, disability or national origin. Homosexuals are the only group to claim minority status based on behavior!

It is clear to me and anyone else that has common sense that this lifestyle is directed by the devil himself and those that follow this lifestyle are living and practicing sin. God does not condemn them, but the act they are committing. They can still be saved and accepted by God if they will turn away from this lifestyle and give their lives to Him instead. He will purge this evil out of their lives and minds and renew them in a healthy normal lifestyle. There are countless testimonies of individuals that have gotten out of the homosexual lifestyle and are free from the deception. It can be done but it first has to be recognized for what it is, "Sin."
