Linking arguments
The Bible condemns same-sex sexual behavior


Supporting arguments

These verses list adultery as a sin, and since the Bible also allows only for opposite-sex marriage, all same-sex sexual activity must occur outside of a marriage and therefore be adulterous in nature. [1]


These verses list behaving in same-sex sexual behavior as among other sins. [2]

Opposing arguments

The word used here and often translated as referring to homosexuality is arsenokoitai, which refers to shrine prostitution, rape or engaging in intercourse with angels. The reference to homosexuality in some translations is an error. [3]


These verses refer to abusive relationships of various kinds, but are not a blanket condemnation of same-sex sexual behavior. Only recent translations like the New American Standard Bible, New Catholic Version and the New Revised Standard Version refer specifically to homosexuals. [4]
1Corinthians 6 9-13 is available in different translations.
