On Tuesday, Dr James White responded to an argument that's becoming quite popular in which people try to suggest that
Jesus condoned homosexuality because he healed the young gay lover of a
Roman Centurion. They base this farce on
Matthew 8 and
Luke 7. They want to argue that the one Jesus healed was not the Centurion servant but the centurion's gay lover. They go as far as saying that the
Greek word "pais" does not mean "servant" but "lover". Such an argument can't hold together, and Dr White truly shows how this "reasoning" is really a fail.
