Lev 20:13
If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
Romans 1:26-27
For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature
And likewis ...[text shortened]... at which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

Again a wild unfounded statement based on the typical human belief that everything was better in our parents time. Illegitimate children has been a fact of life throughout recorded history. I know of no statistics that will even remotely back up your claim other than the population is bigger so there must be more illegitimate children.
Come to Cape Town ...[text shortened]... ed race marriage has been frowned on or banned here for centuries.
Even Jesus was illegitimate.

If the Bible is clear about homosexuality and the Bible says they should be killed, I encourage you to be as clear as the Bible and come out and say "homosexuals should be killed because the Bible says so."
It's quite simple really. The instructions to kill were given to Israel, not the church, which is Christs' body. Don't you know this stuff?
Originally posted by josephwNo, I don't know too much about the Bible. So is it OK for Jews to kill gays?

Originally posted by kirksey957Actually, I never said that in this forum. And it is more like 'God is the same....'.
But , as I believe you have said before, isn't "God's word the same yesterday, today , and for all time"?
Here's the key. "Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth". 1
Tim. 2:15
Look at the books of the bible as mail addressed to different people at different times. The mail for the dispensation we live in now, for the church, the body of Christ, is Romans through Philemon.
Originally posted by josephwWell, I tend to think we need more Jesus than Paul, so if it's OK with you I'll still accept that "mail."
