ISB ~ 1 Corinthians 6 v9
nor homosexuals:The RSV condenses two Greek terms into the single English word âhomosexualsâ. The first term could be rendered âmale prostitutesâ, and the second âmale homosexualsâ. The context makes it clear that Paul is thinking, not of persons merely attracted to others of the same sex, but of those who engage in perverse sexual acts with them. Both Testaments agree that homosexual conduct is gravely disordered and poses a serious threat to eternal salvation (Lev 18:22; 20:13; Rom 1:26-27; 1 Tim 1:10; CCC 2357-59).
