The Bible’s teaching on sexuality gets argued about constantly, but the text itself makes a different kind of demand: be holy because God is holy. We walk through that claim from Leviticus 19 and Leviticus 18, where God’s people are called to a radically different sexual ethic rooted in creation, not in cultural trend. From there, we connect the dots to Genesis, showing why Scripture frames sexual intimacy as one man and one woman and why the prohibitions are stated without modern qualifiers meant to soften them. 

Then we move into the New Testament to ask a practical question: does the church carry forward God’s moral law, or does it leave it behind? We point to Acts and then spend significant time in Romans 1, where Paul lays out a sobering progression of “exchanges” that begin with suppressing truth and end with dishonoring the body. We also talk plainly about the phrase “against nature,” what it claims about God’s design, and why the passage treats gender as central to the moral argument. 

Finally, we face the pressure point many Christians feel today: the warning in Romans 1 about approving what God calls sin, even when it involves people we love. We hold that hard line alongside an equally clear hope: Scripture does not only expose sin, it points to the Savior, and repentance is not a side issue but a core part of the gospel that leads to real forgiveness and real change.
