One Man and One Woman

Marriage and Same-Sex Relations

About this book

What does the Bible teach about sexual relationships between people of the same sex? Does true love require that we accept all forms of sexual expression? No, real love does not rejoice in sin, but rejoices in the truth. In the Bible, God reveals that He created gender, sex, and marriage, and we may not alter them at our will. Through His laws and works in history, God has made it clear that homosexual practices violate His holy purposes for mankind.

The New Testament reaffirms God's created order and moral laws. It too warns that homosexual practice, like any other sin that we cherish, is the pathway to God's judgment. However, the Lord Jesus Christ saves sinners by His Spirit and gives them a new identity, forgiveness, life, and power to live according to His commandments. This is the message that all people need to hear: God's laws have not changed, but God's grace offers hope to sinners through Jesus Christ.
