In this second Twisted Passions episode, the host tackles a loaded question: Is homosexuality worse than other sins? He explains why Scripture uses especially strong language about homosexuality in the Old Testament, but then emphasizes that the New Testament consistently places it in “lists of sins,” highlighting the gospel’s equal sufficiency for all sinners. The episode closes with a pastoral plea: churches often speak against homosexuality from the pulpit, but rarely speak _to_those quietly struggling in the pew, and that gap must change.

• Why the question “worse” can mean different things (degree of wickedness, path of deliverance, depth of impact)
• “Corruption” vs “perversion” framing (heterosexual sin vs homosexual sin)
• Old Testament “abomination” language and civil penalty context (Leviticus 18, 20)
• New Testament “sin lists” (Romans 1, 1 Corinthians 6, Revelation 21) and what that implies for how believers should think and minister
• Gospel-centered conclusion: the blood of Christ is sufficient for “all sin,” and the church should not treat people with SSA as a different class of sinner
• Pastoral application: preaching only to “defend a statement” can unintentionally build a barrier for strugglers; we need diligence, not tolerance

• “Worse” has multiple layers: moral weight, deliverance process, and personal impact.
• The New Testament’s emphasis is not ranking sin but spotlighting the gospel that rescues sinners.
• Churches should pair biblical clarity with real pastoral care for those in the congregation who are silently battling.
• Practical safeguards and wise boundaries are normal in discipleship for any besetting sin, and should not be treated as uniquely shameful here.
