Huh?

I’m glad you said this, I was trying to think of what part of the bible I missed out on.

They are probably referencing I Cor 6:9-11 - "Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God."

Yeah, Acts 8: 26-40 related the story about the conversion of a eunuch, not a gay man. All of these billboards are a distortion of the biblical passage or a liberal (progressive???) translation of something taken out of context.
