Is the bible opposed to same sex relationships? Don’t the texts (Leviticus 18 and 22, Romans 1, 1 Corinthians 6:9 and 1 Timothy 1:10), provide all the evidence we need to tell us that the Bible stands against all things LGBTQIA+? What about creation? Adam and Eve? Surely these passages in Scripture tell us all we need to know?
In this intriguing episode the Curious team are joined by minister, theologian and writer Jonathan Tallon reflecting on his book ‘Affirmative’. Together they traverse the thorny and all important scriptural references that are claimed to condemn any same-sex attraction. This episode pulls no punches, it deals with all the difficult passages in detail offering some surprising insights and drawing some interesting conclusions.
If you’ve ever found yourself wondering what God thinks of same-sex attraction, whether being gay is something that contradicts scripture, and how are we to think and address the LGBTQIA+ community, then this episode is a must listen. Join the team this week for an honest, hard-hitting, straight-talking episode!
