Why I Don't Use Leviticus When Explaining The Bible Forbids Homosexual Acts

There are just times when you have to give the Bible verses that condemn homosexual behavior. I've grown sick and tired of having to respond to the smart-mouthed questions, "Do you eat pork? Do you wear clothes of blended fabrics?"  

So let me set the record straight: The prohibition of eating pork and wearing clothes made of blended fabrics was a ceremonial and ritualistic law, not a moral law. 

The Levitical prohibition of homosexual acts are part of the moral law. And the moral law does not become null and void because someone is not Jewish. The moral law regarding sexuality is binding for every single human being. And that's because it's part of the natural law. 

So to save myself the inevitable annoyance of being asked if I wear clothes made of mixed fabrics and eat pork, I don't use the Leviticus verse. Instead, I use a verse from 1st Corinthians. The fact that there are several passages in the New Testament condemning homosexual behavior is proof that moral laws regarding human sexuality were not done away with because of the New Covenant with Jesus.
