What Does The Bible Say About Homosexuality?

Contributed by Mark H. Stevens Thd on Feb 3, 2014

Just because someone is a homosexual does not mean that we cannot love him (or her) or pray for him (her). Homosexuality is a sin and like any other sin, it needs to be dealt with in the only way possible. It needs to be laid at the cross and repented of.

The Bible, as God's word, reveals God's moral character and it shapes the morality of the Christian. The Bible has much to say about homosexuality: 1. Lev. 18:22 , "You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination." 2. Lev. 20:13, "If there is a man who lies with a ...read more

Divorce, From A Divorced Preacher's Perspective

Contributed by Jason Bentley on May 13, 2015

Divorce is one of the most devastating things a person may have to endure in this life. It's destruction is rampant, and it is growing. Jesus has a message of hope and healing, but are we as a church delivering that message?

He wants to be glorified in their body and carry out His ministry through them. A. WHAT DOES GOD ...read more
