    Same-sex attraction and homosexual lifestyles - hardly mentioned in public a few years ago - are mentioned daily in news, entertainment, and other venues. Public acceptance is on the rise. How is the Christian to respond to this development?

    Homosexuality and the Christian I. Introducton Read the story of Lot in Sodom (Genesis 19:1-11) God destroyed Sodom because of its utter sinfulness. Clearly, theirs was homosexual sin.
