Have you ever wondered what the Bible says about homosexuality
0:04
In a world where more and more people are accepting the gay lifestyle
0:09
which has also evolved to become the LGBTIQIA-plus community, it seems nobody cares about the truth anymore
0:18
What's important is that you don't hurt other people's feelings and simply ignore the truth
0:24
That's why in this episode, let us go back to the very Word of God
0:30
Bible to discover the truth that many people tried to hide. After all, it's not what people think, but what God thinks that truly matters
0:40
So if you want to learn the truth, I invite you to dig into the Bible and learn more about
0:46
what the Bible says about homosexuality. Today I'm going to share with you five biblical truths about homosexuality, and I believe
0:56
number five is the most ignored of all. So stay tuned and watch from start to finish
1:10
Hello everyone, I'm Joshua Fentado Becoming Christian Academy, and today I want to speak about a very controversial topic in our society, homosexuality
1:21
Now, more and more people are afraid to speak the truth about homosexuality
1:25
because they risk being called bigots, homophobes, old-fashioned, and narrow-minded. However, in this channel, we are not here to please people
1:37
We are here to proclaim the truth. We are following what God says in Isaiah 58, verse 1
1:43
Cry aloud, spare not. Lift up your voice like a trumpet. Tell my people your transgression and the house of Jacob their sins
1:53
So today we are going to tell you the truth and nothing but the truth about homosexuality
2:00
Thus let me share with you five biblical truths about homosexuality. Number one, homosexuality is a sin
2:10
The Bible explicitly describes homosexual behavior as sinful. We read these two passages, Leviticus 1822
2:19
You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination
2:25
Leviticus 20 verse 13, if a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman
2:30
both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death
2:37
Their blood shall be upon them. The word abomination here comes from the Hebrew word, Toeba
2:44
Strong sectionary defines it as properly something disgusting, morally, that is an adherence
2:51
especially adulatory or concretely an idol. Abominable, abomination. Abomination is such a powerful word against homosexuality For God homosexuality is disgusting abhorrent and abominable In short it something that we should never engage in
3:13
We also read in 1st Timothy 1.8 to 11. But we know that the law is good if one uses it lawfully
3:21
Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate
3:28
For the ungodly and for sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers and fathers and murderers and mothers, for manslayers, for for dicators, for
3:38
Sotomites, for kidnappers, for liars, perjurers, and there is no other thing that is contrary
3:45
to sound doctrine, according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God which was committed
3:50
to my trust. Sodominy is a form of homosexuality. The Apostle Paul included Sodomy in the list of sins that are against the law of God
4:01
Thus, this should make it crystal clear, without a shadow of a doubt, that Yahweh labels homosexuality as a scene
4:11
Number two, God created two genders, male and female. In Genesis 1 verse 37, you read, so God created man in his own image, in the image of God, he created him
4:24
Male and female, he created them. As you can see, God created male and female
4:31
There are only two genders. Along with the creation of male and female
4:36
God instituted the biblical marriage, which is the union between male and female
4:42
We read in Genesis 2 verse 24. Therefore, a man shall leave his father and mother
4:48
and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh
4:53
And then in Mark 10, verse 6 to 9, we read Jesus Christ's approval of the Genesis account
4:59
But from the beginning of the Christ, creation, God made them male and female
5:05
For this reason, a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the
5:10
two shall become one flesh. So then they are no longer two but one flesh
5:16
Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate. This shows us that even Jesus or Yahshua also agrees with the sanctity of marriage, which
5:27
is the union of a man and a woman. These passages emphasize the intention of gender complementarity and marriage
5:36
We read a consistent biblical theme from Old Testament to the New Testament that marriage is designed to be between one man and one woman
5:46
Number three, homosexuality is a perversion of God's original design for sex
5:54
We read in Romans 1, verse 26 to 27. For this reason, God gave us
5:59
God gave them up to vile passions, for even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature
6:10
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
6:27
God created man and woman for a purpose. He created both biological sex to serve specific functions
6:35
Men and women are different in their physical and emotional makeup. God designed this sexual different
6:41
because he wants us to enjoy his gift of companionship, partnership, and even the pleasure
6:50
from sex. When we deviate from the original design of God, we are disobeying him. We are also defying
6:58
his original design. As a result, we are rebelling against him and questioning his wisdom in
7:06
creating two sexes. Number four. No. Homosexuals will enter the kingdom of God
7:15
We read in 1 Corinthians 6, verse 9 to 10. Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the king of God
7:23
Do not be deceived! Neither fornicators nor idolaters, no adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites
7:34
nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit
7:41
the kingdom of God. This first tells us that homosexuals, along with other sinners, will not inherit the kingdom of God
7:50
The same idea is said in 1st Corinthians 6, 9 to 10. Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God
7:58
Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, idolaters, adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves
8:09
nor covetous, nor drunkards, revocates, violers, extortioners, will inherit the kingdom of God
8:15
These are not my words. It's the word of the Bible. No matter how hard some Christians deny the truth in the Bible
8:23
it doesn't change the fact that homosexuality is indeed against the word of God
8:29
Of course, I'm not singling out homosexuality here, all right? The Bible does not only focus on homosexuality
8:37
but on a range of behaviors that are inconsistency. with a righteous life
8:43
Thankfully, there's a transformative power of God to redeem and change our lives
8:49
This leads us to the final point to which I believe is the most important
8:54
Number 5, homosexuality, like other sins, can be overcome. What's amazing about our Heavenly Father is that he doesn't just tell you what to do
9:05
but he also gives the necessary help for you to accomplish what he wants you to do
9:10
what he wants you to do. Homosexuality is like other sins. It should and must be overcome
9:18
That why after listing all the unrighteous acts in 1st Corinthians 6 to 10 it offers us hope that we can overcome these sins We read in 1 Corinthians 6 verse 11 and such were some of you
9:35
But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of our master, Yeshua, the Messiah, or Jesus Christ, and by the spirit of our God
9:46
Did you notice that? Paul said that some of the Corinthian brethren were fornicators, revilers, extortioners, idolaters, and yes, homosexuals
9:59
However, instead of simply accepting their weakness and sin, they did their best to overcome it
10:06
They didn't stay as sinners. They did their best to become righteous in the eyes of God
10:12
Through Christ to strengthen them, these people transformed and left their sinful behavior
10:17
years behind including homosexuality with that I hope you now have a clearer
10:25
biblical understanding of what the Bible truly says about homosexuality don't let
10:31
the society which is meant to rebellion against God dictate what is true and what
10:37
is not believe the word of God and follow what it says even if it is unpopular
10:43
because in the end you will not stand before men but before
10:47
the judgment seat of our Master Yeshua. That's it for me. I hope that you learn something new today
