According to the Old Testament law of Moses, the adulter and adulteress should both be put to death. Leviticus 20:10 And the man that committeth adultery with another man's wife, even he that committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death. But Jesus came to bring us mercy and a New Covenant with God, and when a woman caught in adultery was brought to Him, He said that the person who is without sin should cast the first stone. John 8:7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her. We are not under the law of the Old Testament now, but under grace. We are still required to reject sin, but the old punishments of the Old Testament time no longer are in effect.
There isn't one, the only quote that deals with what might come close to our idea of homosexuality is
"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."
now, this says only the act between two men, and for the record as a gay man I've never had sex with a man like he was a woman so you can spin that any way you like, and lastly, "abomination" is the word used for acts against the Jewish nation and not God, so if you're not Jewish this never counted for you and most Rabbis judge that the need for this law has passed.
God's law to the Israelites required compensation for injuries resulting from deception or malicious lying. (Lev. 6:2-7; 19:11, 12) And a person presenting false testimony was to receive the punishment that he desired to inflict upon another by means of his lies. (Deut. 19:15-21)
In the old testament, a woman found committing adultery was to be stoned to death. When Jesus came, He taught against such a punishments.
they (the adulterer and his or her partner in adultery) both shall surely die
...you dont mes with MARRIED people are you crazy? Does No one believe in being faithful anymore. It says in the bible if you commit adultry you go to hell especially if you are the one making them commit adultry shame on you I hope their spouse finds out and takes care of you!
The word "adultery" is in the King James Version of the Bible 40 times. It is in 33 verses.
The word 'punishment' appears 38 times in the King James version of the Bible.
Adultery is defined as having sexual relations outside of marriage. According to the Bible, if you even look at another person with lust then you have comitted adultry. Keep your mind pure and your body will follow.
Adulty is only one aspectt of what the Bible refers to as "fornication." So, if you are asking what constitutes adultry, then that would be if a married person has sexual relations with another person whom they are not married to. But, the Bible indicates that fornication is the real grounds for divorce, which adultry is only one aspect of fornication. The term fornication refers to any gross sexual acts which includes beastiality, pediphilia, and other forms of sexual misconduct.

The Bible supports it.
because in the Bible it says that God wants us to enforce capitol punishment
No you can not as you may face capital punishment.
Do not commit adultery.
Hell is a real place.Read Mark 9:43-44.And also read Luke 16:19 where Jesus revealed to man about hell.The bible is crystal clear in Mark 10:11 that if you marry you shouldn't divorce.You are only entitled to divorce if your wife is cheating on you that is if she commits adultry but Jesus said you should only marry if the former wife has died.God is the respecter of his word and doesn't change his word.Now you have a reason to worry about adultry because the bible says if you marry another woman you are commiting adultry and making another person commit adultry.And adultry is a sin.And all sinners will go to hell.Imagine in the eyes of people you are married and in the eyes of God you are commiting adultery everyday and which means you sin everyday even if you repent but you have a covenant with the devil. There are many that believe that hell is a real place. But getting remarried is not necessarily a ticket to hell. If you are concerned, please, talk to a pastor about it. I would recommend the pastor of a United Methodist Church in your area.
The bible says only one wife, or you then commit adultery ,which is a big sin.
