A most recent controversy has been due to various attempts by pro-homosexual [[polemic]]ists to portray [[Romans 1]] from unconditionally condemning male and female homoeroticism.

== Commentary on the Law ==
{{bibleref|Romans|7|7-10}} contains an interesting explanation of why the law needed to be replaced by a new standard:
{{cquote|What then shall we say? That the law is sin? By no means! Yet if it had not been for the law, I would not have known sin. For I would not have known what it is to covet if the law had not said, “You shall not covet.” But sin, seizing an opportunity through the commandment, produced in me all kinds of covetousness. For apart from the law, sin lies dead. I was once alive apart from the law, but when the commandment came, sin came alive and I died. The very commandment that promised life proved to be death to me.}}
