Misinterpret is the better terminology. The only reference is from Paul, and the word actually means "feminine" rather than homosexual.
two fer...
So then.. can you provide a sanctified pretext in which homosexual sex is permitted?
Because you do know the NT without fail states that even heterosexual sex is only sanctified (allowed) in or under the covenant of marriage... So then any Sex or, all sex being sex falls under this rule (or again provide book chapter and verse where sex is allowed outside of the bonds of marriage) Then it would make it a sexual sin for homosexuals to have sex in any away shape or forms as God has defined a marriage between man and woman. and in the new testament between one man and one woman.
If you are saying homosexuality is not a sin, then again simply provide book chapter and verse that God has made a provision that allows for homosexual sex.
Otherwise know that by simply cutting the direct command that homosexuality is a sin, does not mean the bible gives permission as it still is a sexual act at it's core, and the bible clearly forbids sex outside of one specific avenue. An avenue that homosexuals have no access to with the blessing of God.
Like it or not homosexuality is a sin. Not the unforgivable sin but a sexual sin just like any other. One that needs to be repented of.
