Posted: Fri Nov 10, 2006 5:24 am Post subject: Homosexuality in the Bible
I know it's morally wrong. I don't call them "gay" because the true word is that they are homosexuals. It's been proven that this is a deviant urge within themselves, against nature & is considered a medical sickness. Animals don't know how to sin, which is knowing wrong from right, & some of them are homosexual if that can be used as the proper term. God loves the sinner but hates the sin.
Anyhow, I came here to find the question to an answer I need. I did a search & couldn't find it so I decided to post my question in hopes someone could direct me to the correct passage to use. I've read the Bible. I can't say I know it well especially to quote from it. I have the words that I want to use but don't know the scripture to use it with.
The words which are stuck in my mind that I want to use are, "in the last days men will be lovers of themselves & leave the natural cause of woman."
I can't say this is the specific word usage in the phrase but I see this as today's issue of more men becoming homosexuals, leaving behind the natural "use" of a woman. I need to find this Bible passage if there is one. I've been to several other websites for searches & can't find it. I hope someone can help me with this.

Hi, there. I think you may be thinking of parts of a couple different verses and putting them together in your mind. A common thing to do really, but here is what I think you might be looking for:
As for the 'natural use' part, most likely you're thinking of Paul's descriptions in Romans 1.
And for the "lovers of self" look at 2 Timothy 3.
Let me know if that isn't what you were looking for.

I Praise God for your finding this to let me know where the passage was. These are the exact verses I was needing in Romans 1. I have copied this now & will use it when needed. We must continue to pray for those who are led astray & have closed their ears against the Holy Spirit.

Suenell I think the bible passage you are seeking is found in Romans 1:24-27. Yes God loves the sinner that decides each day to remain a homosexual with all the bible evidence against this sin, but He hates the sin of homosexuality along with a long list in verse 30 of this same chapter. One must be clean to get off this planet & go to heaven.
