Actually beliefs against gay marriage come from Church tradition (the fact that for traditional Christianity marriage is about family and new life), and against [male] homosexuality come from the Pauline epistles.
OT law consists of both moral and cultural laws. If you actually read the OT you will note that all of it only applies to Jewish people. When Jesus fulfills the law, he expands it onto Gentiles, abolishing the culture-specific laws as well. This is why if you actually read the rest of Matthew 5, you can see him specifically picking at problems within said OT law.

Mary Immaculate, star of the morning
Chosen before the creation began
Chosen to bring for your bridal adorning
Woe to the serpent and rescue to man.
Sinners, we honor your sinless perfection;
Fallen and weak, for your pity we plead;
Grand us the shield of your sovereign protection,
Measure your aid by the depth of our need.
Bend from your throne at the voice of our crying,
Bend to this earth which your footsteps have trod;
Stretch out your arms to us, living and dying,
Mary Immaculate, Mother of God.
