Biblical encyclopedia / topical bible entry All quotations, unless otherwise noted, are taken from the berean standard bible Jesus teaching in the temple, illustration from standard bible story readers, 1928 since 1980, scholars have debated the translation and modern relevance of new testament texts on homosexuality But it would be an incredible claim to conclude from that fact that jesus’s teaching is irrelevant to our ethical assessment of those issues Second, jesus did speak explicitly about sexual immorality in general and the nature of marriage.
Asking whether or not jesus ever talked about homosexuality is somewhat analogous to asking whether or not jesus ever talked about elder abuse Have you ever heard someone say, “jesus never said anything about homosexuality.” is that true In the new testament, jesus spoke about homosexuality and clearly denounced it as sin in at least three passages Jesus condemns the sexual sins of both. You’ve heard it said, “ jesus never said anything about homosexuality.” but i tell you, he did In fact, jesus condemned it more than once
