Kirk Cameron, Homosexuality and the Bible

Kirk Cameron has been attacked a lot recently for stating his views on homosexuality. 
I'm going to share his video here and then some Bible verses that talk about homosexuality. At the end I have put one more video you may want to check out.

 Now, there are some Christians who want to accept homosexuality and homosexual rights to "marry." If you read the Bible verses, you will see that those ideas do not match at all with what the Scriptures say.



Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God.
Such were some of you; but you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God. 
1 Corinthians 6:9-11 NASB

Therefore God gave them over in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, so that their bodies would be dishonored among them.
For they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error. 
Romans 1:24-27 NASB

But we know that the Law is good, if one uses it lawfully,  realizing the fact that law is not made for a righteous person, but for those who are lawless and rebellious, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers and immoral men and homosexuals and kidnappers and liars and perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound teaching,  according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, with which I have been entrusted. 
1 Timothy 1:8-11

See Genesis 19 here

In the law of Moses, you will find out how seriously homosexuality was viewed as one of the many types of sin.

If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death. Their bloodguiltiness is upon them.
Leviticus 20:13

This is the description of marriage that the Bible gives:

For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother, and be joined to his wife; and they shall become one flesh.
Genesis 2:24

Here is a video that includes some of the verses and explains how Christians are to respond to homosexuals.
