Matthew 19:4And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,Mark 10:6But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.Romans 1:26For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:Romans 1:27And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.Galatians 3:28There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
