Here's my research. I went to biblestudytools.com and looked up 1st Corinthians 6:9-10 in the KJV to turn on the research tools. https://www.biblestudytools.com/kjv/1-corinthians/passage/?q=1-corinthians+6:9-10A


Click the gear settings and turn on the Strong's numbers. That'll make most of the words in the Bible text turn into links. Click the word "effeminate" and you'll see it's from the Greek word "malakos", which means:


1. soft to the touch (I doubt that's a sin)


2. a catamite (a boy in a pedarasitic relationship with a man, in the Greco-Roman world it was used as a sign of affection)


3. a boy kept for homosexual relations with a man


4. a male who submits his body for unnatural lewdness


5. a male prostitute



Hmmmm.... I think it's pretty clear it means the gay thing ain't good for inheriting God's kingdom. But then, I don't claim to be a theologian, nor have a played one on TV.

Good research! Thanks for adding.

They're claiming this changed in 1946. Nope. God's Word doesn't change.

It was a sin then and it's a sin today and it will be a sin tomorrow.
