Is “Homosexual” a Biblical Mistranslation?

For the past few decades, there has been a dispute about the word arsenokoitai, which has been translated as “homosexual,” in 1 Corinthians 6:9 and 1 Timothy 1:10. Currently, there is a movie in development called 1946, which is about this dispute. The 1946 movie, which is being made by pro-LGBTQ+ Christians, suggests that this error has caused a lot of pain and confusion over what God says about homosexuality. In this episode, we want to look at the arguments about the word that Paul uses in 1 Corinthians and 1 Timothy to see what the original Greek meaning was. By looking into the word, where it was derived from, and how we can know what it means, we hope to show that the claims of the 1946 movie are irrelevant to what Scripture says about homosexuality and that the longstanding interpretation of both Old and New Testaments are accurate in stating homosexual sex is a sin. We hope this episode will help you to think clearly about what Scripture says and that it will also equip you to talk with your friends, family, and neighbors about this issue in light of the arguments proposed in the 1946 movie.1946 Movie Website:https://www.1946themovie.comBook Mentioned:The Same Sex Controversy: Defending And Clarifying the Bible’s Message About Homosexuality  by James R.
