Romans 1; 23 They don't worship the glorious and eternal God. Instead, they worship idols that are made to look like humans who cannot live forever, and like birds, animals, and reptiles. "Idolatry"
Keep reading big boy.
Romans 1:26-27 just for you...."26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error."
Why is it a certain kind of Christian has to reduce gays to nothing more than lustful being incapable of feeling deep and abiding love? Is it because your disapproval of them becomes more difficult to justify if they are defined as Christian people of sacred worth?
Don't ask me; ask God and the Apostle Paul. Those are not my words. I'm just repeating scripture. I can't help it if you don't like it.
I'm asking you a question that has nothing to do with the Scripture you're misusing.
I quoted the scripture in context since 47 quoted a verse from the same section. I'll quote the whole section of Romans 1:24-32 again. Where did I misuse it?
24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25 They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creatorwho is forever praised. Amen.
26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.
28 Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. 29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31 they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. 32 Although they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.
