They were looking for any reason to kill Him. And yet Jesus was with a group of guys all throughout the time of His earthly ministry and the religious establishment still had nothing to charge Him with in that regard. They muttered and complained about His speaking to women, eating with prostitutes and tax collectors and sinners, but we never read a word about them scheming about any homosexual suspicions.

Many thanks to
Trapped and
Humperdinck for expressing an obvious rebuttal from the gospels and refuting the pathetic and scurrilous accusations against our beloved Savior, Jesus Christ. It did serve, however, to expose the crooked hearts of
zeek,
awareness, and others on this thread.
Peter spoke specifically about such ones, "
But also among you will be false prophets and teachers, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction."
(2 Peter 2.1)
