In Volume 2 of the trilogy, First the Gospel, Then Politics…, yet to be published, I address the subject of the Bible and homosexuality thoroughly.

   When I prepare Volume 2 for publication, I will adapt some portions for the website, including a range of anecdotes from ministry on university campuses and elsewhere.

   But for a brief synopsis in the meantime, here are a few salient observations.

   As the exegesis of these texts shows, the sins of Sodom and Gomorrah, which we can call “sodomy” in the broadest sense, is far more then homosexual acts or identity, but rooted in pansexuality’s intrinsic nature:

• Sodomy is evil – the biblical texts use the language of: sinning greatly, grievous sin, wickedness, bad deeds, evil deeds, doing wrong, against hospitality, and it strengthens the hands of evildoers;
• Sodomy is sexual perversion – the biblical texts use the language of: filthy lives, adultery, depraved, prostitution, a staggering, lewdness, and is highlighted in the sexual perversion of an attempted pansexual rape.
• Sodomy is lawlessness – the biblical texts use the language of: lawless deeds, lawless men, unjust power, lies, a dangerous public square, pagan rulers, and the trampling of the oppressed, fatherless and widows.
• Sodomy forsakes the image of God – the biblical texts use the language of the loss of a home in God’s presence, and the reduction of identity to a sub-human status (a dog).
• Sodomy is the worship of false gods – the biblical texts use the language of:  detestable images, idols of wood, stone, gold and silver, sacred stones, Asherah poles, worship articles for Baal, weavings for Asherah, high places, the vile god Chemosh, the vile goddess Ashtoreth and the vile god Molech.
• Sodomy occupies the same territory of the triad of astrology (worshiping the starry hosts), sacred prostitution and child sacrifice.
• Sodomy is detestable.
• Sodomy equals the breakdown of marriage and the family.
• Sodomy equals pagan culture in its fullness – the biblical texts equate it with the cultures of Noah’s days, Babylon, Egypt, Philistia, Edom, Moab and Ammon.
• Sodomy wants cultural approval – the biblical texts speak of the whole cultural support given by Sodom and Gomorrah, the ability not to hide its acts, and the love of parading in public.
• Sodomy provides false security with its “attractive” culture – the biblical texts speak of the false safety Lot’s wife and sons-in-law placed in it, Moses referred to those who did likewise, and Lot was barely rescued from its temptation.
• Sodomy seeks to infiltrate and take over the true worshiping community – the biblical texts speak of the pagan prophets and priests inside Yahweh’s temple, and the housing of the homosexual prostitutes, whose wages help finance the temple.
• Sodomy was opposed by the most godly of Hebrew reformers – Asa, Jehoshaphat and Josiah.
• Sodomy crucifies the Messiah and his followers.
• Sodomy will be judged and destroyed by fire – the biblical texts speak of Yahweh’s fierce anger against sodomy, and how all the pagan cultures which embraced it – whether Sodom, Gomorrah, Babylon, Egypt, Philistia, Edom, Moab or Ammon, were overthrown; but judgment begins with the household of God – so Israel and Judah were overthrown, and so too will the unfaithful portion of the church.
• Sodomy represents social anarchy and lawlessness rooted in a prior sexual anarchy and lawlessness.
