Let's see if we can get on the same page and put an end to the nonsense on this forum...all scripture used is NKJV
I Corinthians 6:9. Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites,
10. nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.
1. fornicators- intercourse of single people
2. idolaters- worship of idols
3. aldulterers- illicit intercourse when one or both is married
4. homosexuals- intercourse with same sex partners
5. sodomites- sexual pervert
6. thieves- the act and agent of stealing
7. covetous- an insatiable desire for worldly gain
8. drunkards- state of intoxication
9. revilers- to speak of another abusively
10. extortioners- money obtained by force or threat
Romans 1:24. Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves,
25. who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
26. For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature.
27. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.
28. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting;
29. being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers,
30. backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31. undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful;
32. who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.
1. sexual immorality- perversion
2. wickedness- all forms of evil
3. covetousness- see above
4. maliciousness-active intent to harm others
5. envy- resentment against another's success
6. murder- taking another person's life
7. strife- conflicts between people
8. deceit- hidden intentions
9. evil-mindedness- thoughts of causing another harm
10. whisperers- (not sure about this one)
11. backbiters- reviling another in secret; slander
12. hater of God-
13. violent-
14. proud- defiant and haughty
15. boasters- to speak of with pride; to brag
16. inventors of evil things-
17. disobedient to parents-
18. undiscerning-
19. untrustworthy-
20. unloving-
21. unforgiving-
22. unmerciful-
Now go back and read v 32...
From what I gather, all this is true except homosexuality... someone please explain this to me...
No judgmentall responses please.
