I think (perhaps) that some people feel more inclined towards their own sex, and feel an attraction (whether it be a mental thing or simply something that occurred to them in the fetus or during early childhood) i wouldn't know why people that way.... so i can't tell them what they feel is real
These are people who are truly then tested because they feel that have been born a way that is against the bible, and are quickly tempted to rebel against salvation. Thats really sad, Jesus came for the sinners
Jesus said to them, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners." (Mark 2 : 17)
I'm not saying that all homosexuals instantly qualify as sinners.... we have all sinned, we've all fallen short, it isn't right for me to see a speck in my brothers eye when i have a log (of sin) in my own
I can't imagine how many millions of Christians have left the church because of this contentious issue....
27In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. (Romans 1:27)
No doubt that Paul considered the act wrong.... but was he talking about heterosexual men who engaged in Homosexual acts or people who considered themselves "born" that way?
Because if someone considered themselves born that way, and yet didn't act on it, lived and believed in Christ as his risen Lord and savior... wouldn't God be even more pleased with this person?
