Supporting arguments
Jude 7 describes the men of Sodom as giving themselves over to sexual immorality, which is translated from the word ekporneusasai, which is a compound word referring to lust; it has no coercive connotations. [1]
|
Jude 7 states that the men of Sodom gave themselves up to "strange" flesh, which refers to the indulgence of sexual desires that are contrary to nature. The idea of same-sex sexual behavior being unnatural is indicated elsewhere in the Bible. [2]
|
Opposing arguments
Jude 7 states that the sin of the men of Sodom was that they sought to have sexual intercourse with angels rather than same-sex sexual behavior. [3]
