Please read about Saul telling Jonathan that he had uncovered his mother’s nakedness with his relationship with David.
Further,
2 Samuel 1:26
"I grieve for you, Jonathan my brother; you were very dear to me. Your love for me was wonderful, more wonderful than that of women." (David)
In ancient Israel, it was not considered proper for a man and woman to have a platonic relationship. Men and women rarely spoke to each other in public. Since David's only relationships with women would have been sexual in nature, then he must be referring to sexual love with Jonathan. It wouldn't make sense in this verse to compare platonic love for a man with sexual love for a woman; they are two completely different things. It would appear that David is referring to his sexual love for Jonathan.
Indeed, you do not compare the two, if it is merely a deep friendship.
Gotta give a loving message to Homosexuals today. Repent and be saved. Homosexuality is a sin.
Gotta give an important message to fundies: Fundamentalism is the home of the stupid, the uneducated, the hard-hearted and spiritually retarded. Open your eyes, minds and hearts to what truly matters - not an old book to find out what primitive barbarians believed.
Same reason we don't sacrifice animals or give offerings to the priest at the tabernacle. Your position reeks of complete ignorance about the Christian faith.
You have zero evidence to even remotely suggest that David and Jonathan were gay lovers. How disgusting that you turn God's Holy Word into a tale of false perversion. David had a man murdered so he could have his wife. He was most certainly heterosexual.

Show me one bible verse in the book of Acts where the gospel was preached that it singled out any sinner or some form of assumed sin. You are a stumbling block to the kingdom. Repent!
