Where does it say that a person who approves of homosexuality is also condemned?
Question:
I'm certain that the Bible tells us that he who approves of homosexuality is condemned also, I just can't seem to find it anywhere. Can you help me with that?
Answer:
The passage you are looking for is in the last half of Romans 1 where Paul details the decay of the Gentile societies and lists out the sins they committed, including homosexuality. "For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due" (Romans 1:26-27). He wraps up the list with this statement, "who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them" (Romans 1:32). Thus we learn that both those who commit sin and those who give approval to the committing of sin are both condemned in the eyes of God.
