Gay unions are incomparable to remarriages

To dispute the slanderous, anti-Christ and ungodly comparison of Gods marital covenant to homosexual unions
Supporting Evidence
In some of the more devious/deceptive circles these days we see this nonsense of comparing the abominable union of two men to a covenant made before God between a man and woman where one or both have been remarried.
This will be a pretty short document as all we need to prove here is that remarriage WAS permitted after a divorce somewhere in scripture and that men lying with men is nothing in Gods eyes at any point in time short of abomination and fornication.
Firstly let us see Gods unchanging view of homosexuality...
Notice there are no exceptions, no concessions, no leniency...simply death if this act is committed.
No male/male marriage has ever existed in scripture, no homosexual union ever exonerated, no tolerance given in the matter at any point anywhere in scripture.
There can be no marriage before God between two men and without a marriage covenant in place a sexual relatioship is ALWAYS fornication (porneia).
If for no other reason this union between two men would be sin by default simply because God created marriage to be between a man and a woman and there isnt a single precedent in scripture anywhere to show otherwise...and there is clear scripture to show that man being with men as one is with a woman is ALWAYS abomination.
Now, on the topic of a marriage covenant made between a man and a woman where one or both have been married previously, let us see what the scripture shows in these matters.
Let us go to Mosiac law and see if there is even a single piece of evidence that once lawfully divorced that either party could remarry without it being considered abomination as we see with two men above...
We absolutely see that after this divorce and subsequent remarriage there is no abomination even remotely mentioned. Moses seems to either be encouraging this remarriage, or at the very least showing that the permission is assumed once she has been put away.
We see no abomination here whatsoever where a remarriage has taken place.
Now, let us move up to our Lords words in Matt 19 where the Deut passage above is being discussed with Him by the pharisees who distorted the sufferance of divorce into a commandment.
Firstly take notice that the text shows that they were tempting or testing him (the Greek means to test). We can immediately see their hearts that were simply trying to trap or trick Jesus, rather than to know the truth.
These men bring up for every cause from what Moses had been permitting as far as divorce goes. They knew Moses had suffered them to put away their wives for every frivolous reason they could think up (some uncleaness found in her) and had twisted this sufferance for these frivolous divorces into a commandment, as it plainly shown.
Notice that Jesus corrects their false interpretation of this being a commandment and shows them clearly that it had not been a command, but a sufferance to allow them to divorce for every cause (some uncleaness).
Our Lord then shows them in the last verse that He will no longer tolerate these frivolous divorces when He says except in such a case as I define, you commit adultery when you marry another.
In His exception we see quite clearly that to marry another is lawful in the case for which He describes (porneia/fornication/sexual immorality) and thus NOT abomination as homosexual unions are regardless of the situation.
Those who use this nonsense that gay unions are comparable to remarriages clearly have not studied scripture on the matter in the least and are grasping at straws to push their faltering error on our brethren.
These slanderous comparisons of homosexual unions to remarriages are given simply for shock value. As weve clearly shown they have no foundation in scripture whatsoever.
