New Testament And Homosexuality
$24.00
Advisory: Some of the views put forth in this book challenge the traditionally accepted teachings on the issue of homosexuality and the Christian faith. In this book, Scroggs argues that, based on the nature of homosexual relationships in New Testament times, the New Testament has nothing to say about modern homosexuality. The thesis is that, because the majority of homosexual relations took place in a degrading, adult-child situation in ancient times, the authors of Scipture had that practice in mind, not the mutual, adult-adult relationships of today.

Life is full of such dramatic turnarounds. Whether it’s a sports team coming from behind to win an upset or a late blooming student who wins the scholarship, or….your life story, God delights in arranging for comebacks.

“It is definitely not too late for you. God has a purpose, a destiny, and a goal for your life. Don’t go backward on Him now. You’ve come too far. You can’t change your past regardless of how much you may want to. But your past does not have to determine your future.” Dr. Tony Evans
