The relationship of homosexuality to Christianity is one of the main topics of discussion in our culture today. In the fall of last year I wrote a review of books by Wesley Hill and Sam Allberry that take the historic Christian view, in Hill’s words: “that homosexuality was not God’s original imaginative intention for humanity ... and therefore that gay practice goes against God’s express will for all human beings, especially those who trust in Christ.”
There are a number of other books that take the opposite view, namely that the Bible either allows for or supports same sex relationships. Over the last year or so I (and other pastors at Redeemer) have been regularly asked for responses to their arguments. The two most read volumes taking this position seem to be those by Matthew Vines and Ken Wilson. The review of these two books will be longer than usual because the topic is so contested today and, wh

So you admit that when you said that Jesus pretty much endorsed everything in the Old Testamentyou were being packed of hot air? I don't contain to say that this "clarification" of yours only came up after some prodding, right? Does that mean you retract your first post on this thread? I expect so.Sigh... now I see you've resorted to outright lying/distortion. You blatantly ignored and then clipped out the part which clearly states my position: [SNIP]
It's not rocket-science, asshole. The extent to which Jesus endorses the Antique Testament isn't transparent, but it IS clear that he wouldn't approve of homosexual sex.
As for that "clarification", Jesus was being much harsher on adultery than the OT and forbade divorce outright when the OT allowed it. So once again, it's Jesus quite explicitly not following the OT tradition and yet you somehow use this as proof that Jesus would agree with it on homosexuality nonetheless. That, my son, is called an utter non-sequitur. I was entity kind by ig
What is the Queen James Bible?
Answer
The Queen James Bible (QJV), also called the “Gay Bible,” is an edit of the biblical text done in the identify of preventing “homophobic interpretations.” To accomplish this goal, the publishers printed a Bible in which all negative references to homosexualityhave been removed. The Queen James Bible was published in 2012 and is based on the 1769 edition of the King James Bible.
The publishers of the Queen James Bible chose the name “Queen James” as an obvious take-off on the “King James” Version, as the Authorized Version of 1611 is commonly called. The publishers of the Gay Bible also claim that King James was bisexual, so their choice of title capitalizes on the slang meaning of the term queen.
The editors of the Queen James Bible, who chose to be anonymous, claim that there was no reference to homosexuality in any Bible translation prior to the 1946 Revised Standard Version. Then, they assert, “anti-LGBT Bible interpretations” arose, based on a faulty translation in the RSV of eight verses.
The unidentified “scholars”—their scholastic credentials are unknown—who produced the Queen James Bible suggest that all Bible trans
