"There are eunuchs who have been so from birth, and there are eunuchs who have been by men, and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven."

Matthew 19:12

Just thought I'd throw it out there, since no one else has.

Food for thought: can we equate a "eunuch" with a homosexual?

Nothing from Jesus on that.

I say no.
First of all nowhere in the Bible is being a "eunuch" condemned.
Everywhere homosexuality is mentioned in the Bible it is condemned as sinful.

This verse says there are "eunuchs who have been made eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven."
The same Bible tells us that homosexuals will not enter heaven.

There is no comparison from a Biblical point of view.
