When we try to force the specific cultural dynamics of the Roman Empire (pederasty) onto the ancient laws of Moses, we are committing "eisegesis" (reading our own desired meaning into the text rather than letting the text speak for itself).
The reality is that the ancient Near East (Canaan and Egypt) had its own forms of sexual brokenness, which God explicitly warned against. But to claim that Leviticus is only addressing a specific Roman power dynamic that wouldn't exist for another millennium is intellectual desperation.
Why the "p3d0ph1l1a" interpretation contradicts God’s character regarding victims.
Psalm 82:4 reads, "Rescue the weak and the needy. Deliver them from the hand of the wicked."
This dual punishment makes it obvious that this is not about a man and an innocent boy, but concerning two guilty individuals. Don't let bad theology twist God's justice.
Here's the ultimate test of a "high view" of Scripture: Do you believe God only spoke in the red letters?
The doctrine of inspiration means we can't put Jesus in conflict with Paul. It's not "Jesus's words" vs. "Paul's words"; it's all God's Word, revealed by the same Spirit.
Claiming to follow Jesus while rejecting the Scriptures He inspired is like claiming loyalty to a king while ignoring his royal decree.
People often treat Jesus's silence as a blank canvas to paint their own modern ideas onto.
But His silence wasn't a void waiting to be filled; it was an affirmation of the unspoken, universally understood moral laws of His immediate audience (1st-century Israel).
He didn't need to "remind" them of things no one was debating.
He saved His words for the issues they were actually getting wrong, like divorce. And when He spoke on that subject, He didn't invent a new rule; He pointed straight back to the original design in Genesis.
How can we talk to someone that this is sinful behavior when the world, and even now gay Christians, don't even view it as behavior? What are they viewed as? Who they are. This is why we need both clarity and compassion when pointing people back to God’s truth. What are your thoughts?

Here’s the #1 mistake people make: They treat the entire "ancient world" as one giant Roman party.
But Jesus wasn't talking to Rome. He was speaking inside Israel, a culture that was the complete opposite.
He came to call out Israel's specific sins, the places they had strayed from their own Law. He wasn't commenting on the sins of the Gentiles, which is why He focused on issues like divorce and loving enemies, not things Israel already unanimously condemned.
If you get the audience wrong, you will always get the message wrong.
The "doctrine of inspiration" isn't just about the Bible being "inspiring" like a good song. It's about it being God-breathed. His literal self-revelation.
This distinction is the entire game.
It determines whether we stand over Scripture, editing it with our feelings and cultural preferences, or whether we stand under it, allowing it to edit us. A "low view" of Scripture isn't just a minor theological disagreement; it's the first step in creating a God in our own image rather than submitting to the One who revealed Himself.

Funny how “experts” show up where experience is absent.
