Considering it's Easter, I'm just going to jump in and say Jesus didn't say anything homophobic. You're thinking of Paul in Letters to the Romans, and even then it's disputed.
Fair enough. There's no account of Jesus being homophobic in the Gospels, but the Church, excluding a minority of LGBTQ+ affirming denominations, is very much a homophobic institution. I've heard Christians justify or condemn practically every act known to man using Jesus' words, so depending on who you listen to, he very well might have been a homophobe.
That's fair and undeniably true!
