Is homosexuality "fornication"? Did you add "homosexuality" in or was that some translation? It is my understanding that fornication is sex between unmarrieds. I guess you could call "homosexuality" fornication since they would not be "married"? But don't think that is the intent of 1 Cr 6:18. Just my thoughts.

I added the parentheses in the verse for clarification.

Fornication

porneia (por-nā'-ä)

Part of Speech

feminine noun

1) illicit sexual intercourse

a) adultery, fornication, homosexuality, lesbianism, intercourse with animals etc.

b) sexual intercourse with close relatives; Lev. 18

c) sexual intercourse with a divorced man or woman; Mk. 10:11,12

2) metaph. the worship of idols

a) of the defilement of idolatry, as incurred by eating the sacrifices offered to idols

Not sure it's fornication but it's 'sho nuff' nasty!

Got a short 10 minute sermon by black brother named 'Elder Mitchell' that "expounds on the putrid vulgarities of that filthy, nasty abomination" rather well! Let's just say that, while straight as an arrow, you won't have to wonder what the good Elder thinks!

I had never heard 'fornication' being used so broadly, still not sure of your source.

Candy Hemphill told me one time that if pastors new what goes on in the singing industry, they would have very, very few groups to choose from for a service.
