I'm talking the "agape" kind of love... they'd encourage one another to draw nearer and nearer to God in increasing sanctification and holiness. Being a "homosexual couple" wouldn't be possible or part of the equasion. It's like a straight couple who are unmarried when they get saved. When "true love" begins to grow they will seek to please God by either getting married or ending the physical aspect of their relationship.

Without God no couple can have the truest form of agape love. Without God, any couple is only capable of emotional and erotic love. In this their love may be similar to straight couples who do not know God.
There are examples in the NT of unbelievers having "agape" love. Did you know that?
