Only the Romans chapter comes CLOSE to referring to lesbianism, but bible scholars for year have told us that it really refers to women deciding not to have children, thus abandoning their "purpose" or "use"
all other verses are specific to male homosexuality

Yes, Romans 1:26-27

There are 56 passages that deal with sexual immorality. We can surmise that all of them are directed to a PEOPLE - that is - men and women equally.
in genesis 2 we read:
22 Then the LORD God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man.
24 For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh.
and in Hebrews we read:
Hebrews 13:4 (Whole Chapter)
Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.
In Genesis it is made clear that the Lord meant for man to be for woman and woman to be for man in marriage.
Obviously a concrete law - not negotiable as Throughout the bible the marriage bed is reiterated as one man and one woman.
Logically then, there is no room for man and man or woman and woman.

sure. It says in a million Corinthians that Homosexuals won't enter the dominion of Heaven. extra importantly - have you ever lied, stolen, used God's call in ineffective. those are a number of the ten Commandments. it quite is appointed unto guy as quickly as to die, then judgment. once you die God will choose you by His Ten Commandments. you would be responsible, and while you're responsible, you would be despatched to Hell. Jesus got here to die on a pass and upward push back to pay the debt on your sins, in case you Repent, which potential to ask forgiveness and turn out of your sins, and positioned your believe in Jesus Christ, you would be accepted into Heaven. it truly is the only way.

i think one of the posters has quoted romans 1:26.
but i think read the romans 1:18-32 to get a better understanding.
they exchanged their natural relations for unnatural ones.v26
"in the same way" with men
last part of v27 " received in themselves the due penalty for their pervesion .
means- what those who practice these acts, have either STDS or sexual transmitted disease, in today's modern context.
other than that,
in terms, of not having a fulfilled life. in terms of job opportunities, or income or having a good sex life.
look around, dont be blind. see what type of jobs, gays and lesbians are having. if you were in that position, honestly, would you want a good job with someone to respect you or a job that sucks big time.
verse 28
they did not think of it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of god, god gave them over to a " depraved mind" to do what was ought not to be done.
if you interpret the scripture properly, man kind made a choice, then god allowed that to happen. it is the choice and the consequences of that choice.
some of you might be thinking that, heterosexuals also get STDS and AIDS.
1 corinthians 6:12- 20
everything is permissible for me but not everything is beneficial.
v15
it says that " do you know that he who unites himself with a prostitute is one with in her body" ? for it is said, that two will become one flesh.
in a retrospective point of view from today's context, anyone who sells her body has sex to someone else ( other than her husband) , no matter what girls think today " that it is ok, ( i do it but i am not a prostitute or a s_lut ) " , she would be considered a "prostitute" cos the girl has expose herself to a person who is not even her husband.
so in terms of AIDS, and stds, if you choose to have sex when you are not even married, those are the consequences of sin.
read 1 corinthians 7: 4- 5
a wife's body does not belong to her alone but also to her husband.
in the same way v5, husband's body does not belong to him alone but also to his wife.
^^ only the husband, period.
