It helps you today in your daily life because God is your Creator. He knows and understands all of your concerns, frustrations, problems, and He will help you with them.

According to the Bible homosexuality is a sin just like murder, lying, adultery, racism, stealing, etc.
I believe that God's standard of holiness and righteousness is paramount, so if He says that homosexuality is an abomination then it is. See what I mean about absolutes? The problem is that each person is doing what is right in their own eyes. Furthermore, I believe that homosexuals can be delivered from their condition by the power of Jesus Christ. But God still loves you and wants to deliver you from your condition.

When you say "He says", what you really are saying is, the bible says. The bible was written by man, and it is not always right. People back then had a fear of homosexuality because reproduction could mean the difference between life and death. With 6 billion people on the planet, we don't have that problem any more.

That does not negate the fact that God gave the inspiration for the words that were written by man. The Bible is God's Book; therefore, it is God's Word and thus it is infallible.

That is what Islam says about the Koran. Why are you right, and they are wrong?
The bible is fallible.

The Qu'ran repeatedly talks about Jesus, His mother Mary, and Christians, but the Bible (the Word of the living God YHWH never talks about Muhammed, Allah, Islam, or Muslims.
