What Does the Bible Say About Homosexuality Is A Sin?
Christian leaders have written about homosexual male—male sexual activities since the first decades of Christianity ; female—female sexual behaviour was almost entirely ignored. However, in the 20th century some prominent theologians and Christian religious groups have espoused a wide variety of beliefs and practices towards homosexuals, including the establishment of some "open and accepting" congregations that actively support LGBT members, which they consider biblical in light of other rebukes in the New Testament that Christians might gloss over, such as wealth, [5] women refraining from speaking in church [6] or covering their heads while praying, [7] and Protestant churches' lack of support for adults who do not want to marry, such as building monasteries, [8] even though New Testament verses speak of the virtues of remaining single, [9] such as the example of , males who are not to be "defiled" [10] with females before being redeemed in the Apocalypse. The first instance of the English word "homosexuals" used in a Biblical translation was in the RSV New Testament published from until , [12] which simultaneously removed most "fornication" admonitions found in the prior ASV and KJV Bibles.

There are a number of passages in the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament that have been interpreted as involving same-sex sexual acts and desires. These interpretations form the basis of Jewish and Christian attitudes towards homosexuality. Chapters 18 and 20 of Leviticus form part of the Holiness code and list prohibited forms of intercourse , including the following verses:. These two verses have historically been interpreted by Jews and Christians as clear overall prohibitions against homosexual acts in general. This is shown in Leviticus Chapters 18 and 20 by three specific scripture passages Leviticus —3, and that state that the Israelites should never do what the Egyptians and Canaanites did.
