What did Jesus say about gay and lesbian people?

Answer 1

This is going to seem like a tangent, but trust me, it relates. In John 3:16, John writes that "for God so loved the world, that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life." So God loves everyone and came to save us from our sin. In 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 - "Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God." Because of any sin (including homosexuality), we cannot enter heaven. Yet because of John 3:16, we know that God loves sinners and came to save them. Jesus loves homosexuals, yet he hates homosexuality and says that they need to turn from it just as every other sinner needs to change his or her ways. He says in Luke 5:32, "I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance." A lot of Christians will say that they or God hates homosexuals, but this is untrue and very sad.

Answer 2

You should not ask it on the computer you should know yourself.He does not like what gays do but he still loves them of coarse and if they ask for forgiveness and mean it He will forgive them.He does not hate them like people say God is love okay God Bless You.

Answer 3

No, he did not mention it at all.

A biblical perspective:

Nearly every recorded word of Jesus was spoken to a Jew. Aside from using Sodom and Gomorrah as examples of God's judgment (Matt. 10:15 and others), there was no need for Him to teach them anything regarding homosexuality; the Jews knew God's thoughts on the matter perfectly well from their own scriptures (Leviticus 18:22-24). Jesus' teachings were new (Mark 1:27), whereas the matter of homosexuality was old and settled in the Jewish mind.

Answer 4

Jesus did not say anything particular about bisexuals during his earthly ministry, yet he believed all the commandments of Moses, having originated them and later given them to Moses through the angel on Mount Sinai. And in Leviticus 18. 22 & 23 homosexuality and bestiality is condemned; and also a disciple of our Lord said that the effeminate cannot enter into the kingdom of heaven, ( 1 Corinthians 6.9)

There is really no room nor justification for any other intimate relationship than marriage in following Jesus.

Answer 5

Not directly, but this is a quote from Jesus [Mark 12:31] "And the second, like it, is this: 'you shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these."

Lev. 18:22 is God saying... "Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind, it is an abomination." So there is why homosexuality is a sin.

Matt. 7:1-2 "Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you." So it is not our place to judge others, otherwise God will judge us just as strictly as we judged others. We are only to love others and show them what is right without being incriminating, and then let God deal with it, whether he leads them to the right path or has to ultimately end up judging them in Heaven (on any subject, not just homosexuality.)

Answer 6

Jesus said nothing about the topic, the Old Testament mentions something that one gay should not share a bed with another man...

Answer 7

According to The Bible, nothing at all. Same goes for abortions and stem cell research.

Answer 8

Jesus never gave any opinion of homosexuality. But he did preach love of others with no exceptions.
