here
are about half a dozen or so Scriptures that are
often cited by modern Christians to condemn
homosexuality. These include Genesis 1-2 (the
Creation Account), Leviticus 18:22 & 20:13 (Holiness
Code), Romans 1:24-27 (Letter from Paul to the
Christians in Rome), 1 Corinthians 6:9 (Letter from
Paul to the Christians in Corinth, and 1 Timothy
1:10 (Letter from Paul to Timothy).
After Inclusive Orthodoxy's founder, Justin R.
Cannon, acknowledged to himself that I he was
sexually attracted to other guys, he began to study
these verses in their historical context, exploring
the Greek and Hebrew, as well as the larger Biblical
context in which the verses are found. He began this
journey truly seeking conviction and understanding,
so as to learn God’s will as related to his
sexuality. He came to learn that, contextually
understood, the Bible only condemns homosexual sex
in perverse contexts of rape, prostitution,
pederasty, and otherwise cultic practices. He
believes that there is nothing in scripture that
condemns a loving and committed homosexual
relationship. The results of Justin's studies have
published in a study titled The Bible,
Christianity, & Homosexuality wherein he
examines closely these different verses. You can
