20 Questions for Theists

RE: 20 Questions for Theists

That is why in my arguements against Homosexuality I simply break it down to it core sin. That being Sex out side the santified pretext of a biblical marriage. As there is not a santified pretext in which homosexual people can marry biblically, any homosexual sex is considered sin, a sin like any other. Which means ALL Sin is an abomination to God not just the sin of Choice of the Homosexual man or woman. Thus forcing one to seek attonement, if that person can be honest with themselves.

It is a common misconception that the OT was supplanted by the NT. According to Jesus you don't get to choose.
Mathew 5:17
"Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.

As for sanctified marriage and sexual realtions as per the Bible, well let's see...
One man and his sister - Leviticus 21:3
One man and his dead brother's wife - Genesis 38:8
One man and one woman plus her servant - Genesis 30:4, Judges 19:24
One man and his rape victim - Genesis 34 (caveat: as long as everyone agrees to be circumcised)
One man and many women - Judges 8:30, Esther, Exodus 21:10
One man and his captive - Deuteronomy 21:14

Yeah, that's much better.
