abominations: false weights and measures and homosexuality. In the Bible, God promises long life to three types of behavior. the first example is in the ten commandments where God promises long life to those who honor their parents. The second is for those who use honest scales, weights and measurements when doing business transactions. the third is for those who obey his commands, desires, wishes and precepts. "abomination; loathsome, detestable thing." What is common between false weights and homosexuality is fraud. God hates fraud. The dishonest scale misrepresents the weight of the seller and thus the value to the buyer. Let us say someone is selling rice. At 40 pesos a kilo if the sellers scales are 10% off the buyer will have overpaid. In early Bible times, both buyer and seller carried scales. they could thus check up on each other. In moderns times it is not convient. Thus dishonest scales misrepresent what is being sold and its value and is a fraud. Because God made man in his image and likeness the homosexual misrepresents the God image by behavior which does not represent the nobility of God's character nor the purpose of his existence. whose mandate God gave us in Genesis 1:28, be fruitful and multiply. Thus homosexuality and dishonest scales are an abomination, an loathsome detestable thing and do no result in long life.
