Question: Is Homosexuality a Sin?

Answer: First of all I want to begin by saying that all homosexuals are valuable people that Jesus gave His life to save. All human beings should be treated with respect and kindness.

With that being stated, I will go on to say that the practice of homosexual behavior is the sin of fornication. The entire counsel of the word of God teaches that sex is to be performed only between a married man and woman, no exceptions. Therefore any sex act performed outside of that context is sin.

A heterosexual who has sex outside of the Biblical context is committing the sin of fornication, and in this sense is no different than a homosexual.

So to answer your question, “Is homosexuality a sin?" the answer is yes, because they are committing the sin of fornication.
