Yeah, I don’t think God made the “law” that homosexuals should be executed. Your contention that it was “right and just” to execute homosexuals “at that time” is beyond absurd. I tend to believe that executing a homosexual (by, say, chopping his head off) would be far more morally reprehensible than homosexuality itself. I’m pretty comfortable Jesus would agree.

 

Fascinating. There is a parallel. Jesus dealt with a sexual sin by telling the woman: "Go and sin no more." Did the woman deserve to be executed? Of course. Jesus did not dispute that. But - as I've said - he came and died on the cross to save sinners. Even adulterers and queers.

But as you know... The New Testament is filled with warnings regarding those who do not repent and believe. There is no more physical death, but there is certainly a spiritual death.

So your evidence that Jesus agrees with your barbaric assertion that homosexuality deserved execution is a story in which Jesus did exactly the opposite. As you say, fascinating.
