Noahide faith is pre-abramaic.  Noah was tenth in the line
from Adam.  Abraham was 20th in the line from Adam.  Scripture
teaches that the flood destroyed all mankind, apart from Noah,
his wife, his 3 sons Shem, Ham & Japeth and their 3 wives.
8 people in total.

Thus, Noahide faith represents ALL humanity in its embrace.

I grew up in Australia in a mainstream family, used to mainstream
values and morals.  And all of those mainstream values and morals
are still with me and I appreciate them.  Part of Australian law - an
important part - is non-discrimination against homosexual etc
people.  But, likewise, an important part of divine law is that
homosexual practice is sinful and rebellion against God.

As a faith affirming noahide, faced with a society which does not
wholeheartedly attempt to live by the principles of God, I have
developed the attitude that I must respect other peoples and their
ways of life, as this is usually reciprocated.  However, I have
concern for my fellow citizens and desire 'Salvation' to become
part of their hope for the future beyond this present life here on
earth.  I would, on a personal level, have little to no problem in
having homosexual friends.  I would not discriminate them, show
them any hatred or accuse them of being lawless.  However, when
asked, I would remind them of the biblical mandate forbidding
homosexual behaviour as in the Kingdom of God, God does not
allow practicing homosexuality.  From my perspective I am acting
in the best interests of homosexuals and the homosexual/bisexual
etc community.  My wish for them is, like for all lost in sinful
behaviour, to be saved and gain entrance into the Kingdom of God.

To understand the rationale, biblical, why God forbids homosexuality
is not always explicitly stated in scripture.  As such, this usually
comes down to individual jewish or christian opinioins as to why
such practice is forbidden.  This, naturally, does not make such
opinioins infallible.  Yet perhaps through the inspiration of God's
spirit he is sensitively making others away just why such a mandate
was given.

I have concern, affection and love towards homosexuals and their
communities.  Yet I also maintain the biblical position thut such
behaviour denies them access to the Kingdom of God and thus,
out of a spirit of genuine concern for their salvtion, desire them to
repent (change) away from this attitude towards heterosesual
lifestyle.
