Answer:

Lev:18:22: Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.

Romans:1:26-32: For this cause God gave them up unto vileaffections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

27: And 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.

28: And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;

29: Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,

30: Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

31: Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:

32: Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

Rv:21:8: But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

Lev:20:13: If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

Lk:16:15: And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.

Rv:21:27: And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.

Jude:1:7: Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

OPINION:

* Which, as you can see by reading the above, means that The Bible does not say "Only a man and a woman can enter into marriage." the bible is also full of murder, incest a nd all manner of crime so it is good to study other books on the subject

The Bible refers to marriage in several places. Here are some specific verses from which you can draw your own conclusions:

Genesis 1:24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.

Genesis 6:2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.

Genesis 24:4 Thou shalt love thy wife with all thy heart, and shalt cleave unto her and none else.

Matt. 19:5 And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?

Ruth 4:2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.

Ruth 4:13 So Boaz took Ruth, and she was his wife: and when he went in unto her, the LORD gave her conception, and she bare a son.

Also:

God created the marriage structure between the male and female for the purpose of procreation and rearing of children in accordance with the laws of God.

While men and women have been perverting sex in one form or other since the beginning, never before in the HISTORY OF THE WORLD [including Sodom and Gomorrah] until this generation has any other society brought into question marriage not being specific to a man and a woman.

The Bible indeed says that marriage is for a man and a woman. And it also gives fair warning to all who would pervert the two sexes which God has made.

(Genesis 2:7-24)Marriage was a gift from God, from the beginning, and men and women CAN marry, if they want to, but it is not scripturally necessary. (1 Corinthians 7:32-36)(1 Corinthians 9:5)(Matthew 19:11&12) The Bible says, however, that sexual relations belong ONLY within a marriage arrangement. (1 Corinthians 6:9&10), Colossians 3:5) Nowadays, this law is pretty much ignored by the majority of people, but scripturally, if a person wants to obey God, he MUST either stay celibate, or have sexual relations ONLY with his marriage mate. (Hebrews 13:4), (Matthew 5:27-32)

When God first created man, he was alone for quite some time before the woman was created(Genesis 2:7-22). God then, in essence, performed the first marriage 'ceremony'(Genesis 2:22-24). Adam and Eve were to" 'fill the earth' and take care of it" as a married couple. Jesus later supported this principle when he said: 'For this reason a man will leave his father and his mother and will stick to his wife, and the two will be one flesh, So that they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore, what God has yoked together let no man put apart."(Matthew 19:5&6, 9)(Proverbs 5:15-17). Because marriage is permanent,(Romans 7:2&3)(1 Corinthians 7:10&11) it's a big step and should be thought about very carefully.(Proverbs 20:25)

God created the marriage arrangement for the procreation and care of children, and for comfort and companionship.(Ephesians 5:33) (Ecclesiastes 4:9-12)Paul, and others, remained single (and sexually INactive), so they could serve God undistracted, freeing up more time in the preaching work and helping the congregations. (1 Corinthians 7:37)

So, it's a choice, but remaining single involves self sacrifice and self control.

Matthew 19:4-6 - And He answered and said to them, "Have you not read that He who made them at the beginning 'made them male and female,' and said, 'For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh'? So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate."

1 Corinthians 7:2 - Nevertheless, because of [to avoid] sexual immorality, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband.

[NKJV]

The Bible mentions two types of marriage: one where a man can have several wives and one where the parties are limited to one man and one woman. In some places, the Bible says that marriage can be dissolved by divorce, then later it says that a marriage cannot be dissolved by divorce. Finally, the Bible explicitly says that there is no marriage in the afterlife.

Nowhere does the Bible speak of a marriage between two men or between two women.
