Phil,
Sorry in being late in posting. My memory sucks and the topic is interwoven throughout scripture. Here are some scriptures. If this doesn't do it, there are more. But on the other hand, if it can't be seen with these it can't be seen.
Direct references:
Lev 18:22 You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination.
Lev 20:13 If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an
abomination; they shall surely be put to death; their blood is upon them.
New Testament reflections
Rom 1:26 For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature;
Rom 1:27 and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.
Rom 1:28 And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done.
The reason for marriage
Mal 2:13 And this second thing you do. You cover the LORD's altar with tears, with weeping and groaning because he no longer regards the offering or accepts it with favor from your hand.
Mal 2:14 But you say, "Why does he not?" Because the LORD was witness between you and the wife of your youth, to whom you have been faithless, though she is your companion and your wife by covenant.
Mal 2:15 Did he not make them one, with a portion of the Spirit in their union? And what was the one God seeking? Godly offspring. So guard yourselves in your spirit, and let none of you be faithless to the wife of your youth.
The statement that nothing has changed from the beginning.
Mat 5:17 "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.
Mat 5:18 For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the Law until all is accomplished.
Jimmy.
I am not a Bible thumper. As I said before, you have more faith in the lies your liberal education taught to you than I could ever need to believe in God. Creation is not taught, but the lies of evolution are predominant in the liberal educational system. Your faith is in believing their lies. My faith is simple. It is seen in the perfect order and harmony of all things that God has created.
