Want to get to Heaven?


1 Corinthians 6:9-10 Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition (RSVCE):

Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither the immoral,(1)  nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals,(2,3)   10 nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor robbers will inherit the kingdom of God.

Footnotes:

  1. 6.9 the immoral: Literally, “fornicators.”
  2. 1 Corinthians 6:9 Two Greek words are rendered by this expression
  3. 6.9 homosexuals: Greek has “effeminate nor sodomites.” The apostle condemns, not the inherent tendencies of such, but the indulgence of them.

Pax et bonum
