Definition (Antinomianism), to quote:
“In Christianity, an antinomian is one who takes the principle of salvation by faith and divine grace to the point of asserting that the saved are not bound to follow the moral law contained in the Ten Commandments.”

This below is True (NOT the above), to quote:
“In Christianity, Salvation is received solely through faith in the present time and remains the Free Gift of Divine Grace by His Mercy”.
These are also true:
1) However, obeying His Laws causes a HIGHER POSITION (Rewards) in HEAVEN as Matthew 5:19 reveals.
2) Lawlessness can cause us to lose our Salvation (Matthew 7:20 – 23) not in that we never get saved at all but in that we face the “afterlife Judgment fire as it is with the adversaries” ( Hebrews 2:3, Hebrews 12:25, Hebrews 10:37 – 39 and especially Hebrews 10:27 which refers to ‘fallen believers’, Hebrews 10:26).
This case of a ‘believer’ (‘servant’) falling out and facing the same fate as the ‘unbeliever’ is clearly mentioned in Verses below too (please note the words ‘servant’ = ‘believer’ and ‘unbelievers’ in Verses below to realize this):
“the master of that slave will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he does not know, and will cut him in pieces, and assign him a place with the unbelievers. “And that slave who knew his master’s will and did not get ready or act in accord with his will, will receive many lashes, but the one who did not know it, and committed deeds worthy of a flogging, will receive but few. From everyone who has been given much, much will be required; and to whom they entrusted much, of him they will ask all the more.” – Lord Jesus Christ (Hebrews 12:46 – 49, NASB)
3) Our Good Works do NOT save us (Titus 3:5) but helps us in the following manner:
(i) To NOT be condemned if we practice His Commands instead of doing against it, hence practicing Lawlessness (e.g. Luke 12:46 – 49).
(ii) To Gain HIGHER REWARDS in His Kingdom (e.g. Matthew 5:19) even a ‘better resurrection too’ (Hebrews 11:35).
Example:
Some Christian ‘liberals’ think that Christianity is ‘defined by their opinions’ (LOL – please make ‘your own new religion’ as Christianity is ONLY Defined by what’s Written in the Bible) —> and hence these deceitful ones claim that ‘homosexuality is not sin’ or that ‘all people must be fruitful and multiply’ (i.e. claiming that it is the Will of God for ‘all people to be married’).
Reply:
Context:
“be fruitful and multiply” —> a Command given ‘before Sin was Existent in Mankind’ (Genesis 1:28).
Due to sin, it doesn’t necessarily apply except in creating “godly offspring” (Malachi 2:15) = Children who walk in the Ways of the Lord (Proverbs 22:6).
The rest?
God’s Mercy.
Homosexuality is certainly a sin (Leviticus 18:22) and this Law still holds into the New Testament, i.e. ANY SEXUAL IMMORALITY LAW from the Old Covenant applies to ALL GENTILE BELIEVERS as the Context of Acts 15:29 proves Irrefutably unless of course, you don’t take Scripture as it is Written (please note the phrase ‘sexual immorality’ in Acts 15:29 to ‘realize this’ truth).
Here are the Biblical Facts:
(i) Homosexuality is sin, not love (Leviticus 18:22 still in context of sexual immorality as per Acts 15:29).
(ii) ‘Be Fruitful and Multiply’ (Genesis 1:28) is NOT a command to all mankind after the fall (Malachi 2:15, Proverbs 22:6). It becomes a ‘choice’ as apostle Paul reiterates in 1 Corinthians 7:7 – 9.
(iii) Verses Please. No Verses, I don’t subscribe to ‘opinions’.
Please prove using Verses that ‘homosexuality is not a sin’.
The Purpose of Lord Jesus Christ is not homosexuality, sorry.

(iv) Let’s start with
your claim —> “too many literal-factualists of the Bible will try to say that marriage is only ordained by God if between a biological man and a biological woman”
Please prove the above wrong with a VERSE stating that for example that ‘homosexual marriage’ is condoned by the Bible. (an actual example please, or this conversation is over), thank you.
Please don’t make ’empty claims’.
(v) Opps ‘NO Verse’ in your cultural study there.
God’s Law regarding Sin is NOT respective to ‘any cultural demographics’. It is the same toward all mankind.
(vi) His Love will burn the homosexuality out of them be it in the Lake of Fire. The pain is only proportional to ‘how strongly they want to hold on to that sin (being a slave to it) and they decide that by their will or choice’ (Galatians 6:7, Isaiah 3:11).
(vii) They can play victim and blame the environment or the abuse of others toward them or rise up in Christ to be healed of the homosexuality disease (1 Corinthians 10:13). Their choice.
Are homosexuals similar to those being ‘mentally ill’ and thus cannot be held accountable for their actions?
Many causes and effects and thus we can’t generalize.
The “gods” or spiritual wickedness play a great role (Ephesians 6:12, who will be judged for it as Psalm 82 reveals) and so, if it’s really true that these homosexuals are beyond their ability to fight it, they will be acquitted (as the case of being mentally ill – In Principle of Nineveh, whose residents can’t tell between right or wrong but even these could repent on earth regardless). Making this position almost impossible but I’m just letting it here as a possibility if it really ‘exists’. only God Knows and Will Judge it on that Day (Acts 17:31, Romans 2:16).
However, if any homosexual is still within reach of their will to resist it as per 1 Corinthians 10:13, they will be held accountable.
On earth, it’s hard to tell a distinction between the two cases. God Will reveal it on Judgment Day (Romans 2).
Conclusion
There is NO LOVE when it is NOT based on His Commandments (e.g. ‘no love but only lust in homosexuality’) as per the General Verse below:
“The one who says, “I have come to know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him;” – apostle John (1 John 2:4, NASB)
We may Love them but loving doesn’t mean that we have to ‘agree that their sins are right’. Can you see it?
Please don’t be deceived.
