Do not follow their practices.” New International Version
Leviticus 18:6 “‘No one is to approach any close relative to have sexual relations. I am the Lord.” New International Version
Leviticus 18:20 “‘Do not have sexual relations with your neighbor’s wife and defile yourself with her.” New International Version
Leviticus 18:22 “‘Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable.” New International Version

Proverbs 16:5 The Lord detests all the proud of heart. Be sure of this: They will not go unpunished. New International Version
Deuteronomy 22:5 A woman must not wear men’s clothing, nor a man wear women’s clothing, for the Lord your God detests anyone who does this. New International Version
Romans 1:24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25 They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen. New International Version
Romans 1:26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. New International Version

Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who havesex with men 10 nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. New International Version
1 Corinthians 6:11 And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God. New International Version
