We don't think Michael Sam was cut because he was gay, because allegedly, he was among four team players who were cut from the St. Louis Rams, according to USA Today. However, God gets the glory, because he wants righteous football players who honor and respect His expectations. One of those expectations is not to be disobedient to His Word.
There is a spiritual reason why Sam was cut and that is for the NFL to only continue drafting based on the ability of their players, not their sexuality. We don't think, it's appropriate to discuss an individual's personal sexual preference, regardless of their choice.
Biblical Scriptures against Homosexuality
- 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 - "Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God."
- Leviticus 18:22 - "Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that is detestable."
- Leviticus 20:13 - "If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They must be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads."
- Romans 1:26-27 - "Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.
