Here is the Bible's argument against homosexuality. Various quotes in the Bible condemns homosexuality. http://www.livingout.org/the-bible-and-ssa

1.Genesis 19: "Sodom has become so associated with homosexual conduct that its name was for many ears a byword for it."

In the New Testament, Jude adds an important insight:

 

...just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding cities, which likewise indulged in sexual immorality and pursued unnatural desire, serve as an example by undergoing a punishment of eternal fire. (Jude 7)

2.Leviticus 18 & 20: Leviticus contains two well known statements about homosexual activity:

You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination. (Leviticus 18:22)

If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death; their blood is upon them. (Leviticus 20:13)

Turning to the New Testament, Romans 1 has much to say about the nature and character of homosexual behaviour. 

Paul’s aim in these early chapters is to demonstrate that the whole world is unrighteous in God’s sight, and therefore in need of salvation. In Romans 1:18-32 he zeroes in on the Gentile world, describing the way it has turned away from God and embraced idolatry. The particular details in the passage may indicate that Paul is using the Greco-Roman culture surrounding his readers as a case in point.Paul writes:

1. Homosexual desire is not what God originally intended.

2. Our distorted desires are a sign that we have turned away from God.

Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. (1 Corinthians 6:9-10)

1. Homosexual sin is serious.
2. Homosexual sin is not unique.
3. Homosexual sin is not inescapable.

Here Paul writes:

The law is not laid down for the just but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who strike their fathers and mothers, for murderers, for the sexually immoral, men who practise homosexuality, enslavers, liars, perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound doctrine. (1 Timothy. 1:9-10)
