    It is possible within the 62 books of the Protestant Bible to find passages that speak to both sides of an issue.

    Leviticus 22:18 says, “With a male you shall not lie, the lying down of a woman. It is an abomination.”

      I’m not really looking to get into a debate about scripture and homosexuality, but even if we assume it is a sin, I don’t see how that negates what is said in 1 Timothy.
      We are all sinners, but called upon to love each other, at the worst such an interpretation would warrant preaching for them to change their ways, not kick them out.
