C. Make no mistake about it, in verse 5 we have the men of Sodom desiring to perform perverse and ungodly acts on the visitors, the sin of homosexuality. The Hebrew word yadah not only means to know mentally or intellectually as our word know does, but also to know physically. Notice this verse is right in between the commands against child sacrifice and bestiality. When you present to those who are defending perversion, they will undoubtedly say that is in the Old Testament, that has changed. God s righteous standard s have never changed.
Sin is sin.
Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever. The second thing I have to say about that is that they have never read the New Testament. This deals with the ultimate apostasy from God - the fall into homosexuality. Next it goes into idolatry. Now idolatry is not limited to the worship of a pile of mud, a statue or an icon.
