Ryan Cassata - I Met J at the Gay Pri Para | I met J at the gay pri para He was prayg for to be ee A man wh a bible yelled hatefully And * i met jesus at the gay pride parade *

He went lookg for them (The Bible and Homosexual Practice, 212, emphasis add). I attend San Diego’s LGBT Pri para several years ago and engaged peaceful evangelism wh three men who scribed themselv as gay. Some people claim that J “never said anythg about homosexualy, ” but the self-profsed gay Epispalian bishop Gene Robson adms, “One nnot extrapolate affirmatn of such relatnships om that silence.

” was posed an article I me across recently that discsed Pri same thor published another article earlier this month that ma the same pot, namely that J never nmned homosexualy and that if He were alive today, He would wave a rabow flag and march a Pri nservative Christians may be tempted to dismiss the articl as clearly unbiblil, I believe is naïve not to engage wh the arguments. In fact, studi have shown that those who intify as Christian are creasgly open to pro-LGBT msagg and are willg to rensir the Bible’s teachg on homosexualy. Dpe profsg fah Christ, the evangelils believe that Christian sexual ethics need to be, ntemporary wrers who argue that J did not nmn homosexualy, like Michael Coren and Matthew V, nnot be ignored.

Acrdg to Coren, J was “radilly different” to homosexualy.

Consirg the recent arguments, how should nservative Christians rpond to morn terpreters who argue that the New Ttament allows for a pro-LGBT sexual ethic or that J was different to homosexualy? First, is te that J never directly addrsed homosexualy the Gospels. However, is wrong to assume that bee J never addrsed homosexualy directly, He would therefore have affirmed same-sex unns.

Notably, J says nothg about rape, btialy, or ct, and yet no one believ He endorsed the appeal to an ethic of love: J would have supported same-sex relatnships bee His re msage was one of love, and is unlovg to ny people who intify as homosexual opportuni for love and pannship. Bee J did not dite otherwise, the only logil ncln is that He fully agreed wh the sexual ethics of the Old Ttament and His Jewish herage regardg homosexualy.

” By drawg attentn to humany’s creatn as “male and female” the ntext of a discsn on marriage, J signals His acceptance of the Old Ttament’s visn for marriage and addn to J’s affirmatn of the creatn pattern for marriage, there are other vers the New Ttament that nmn homosexual practic. Do not be ceived: neher the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexualy.

” Siarly, 1 Timothy 1:10, Pl clus “men who practice homosexualy” as among the “lawls” and “disobedient.

”Both passag are signifint for unrstandg the Bible’s teachg on homosexualy. In the list, Pl clus four referenc to sexual s, cludg two that mentn homosexual behavr. Rightly terpretg the Greek words is ccial to unrstandg what Pl teach about homosexualy.

Consir a few exampl:ESV: “men who practice homosexualy”NSAB: “effemate” and “homosexuals”NIV (1984): “male prostut” and “homosexual offenrs”NIV (2011): “men who have sex wh men”Although space do not allow for a lengthy treatment of the terms, a few pots should be ma. ” It was also ed Hellenistic Greek as pejorative slang to scribe “passive” partners homosexual activy. And the ntext of 1 Corthians 6, wh s mentn and nmnatn of sexual s, dit Pl is g the term to refer to passive partners homosexual relatns.

The terms are found Levic 18:22 and 20:13, passag that prohib homosexual relatns. When paired wh malakoi, is almost certa that arsenokoai refers to the active partner a homosexual relatnship. By g the terms together, Pl clus both active and passive homosexual partners wh his list of those who will not her the kgdom of God.
