I actually do struggle with homosexual temptations but I believe that I have been renewed in Jesus Christ and that there is freedom to be found from WHAT I SEE AS a sin that I've been enslaved to for years. I'm not perfect but I am making progress.
I actually fairly understand this ... I'm gay and of course im cool with gay people but when people THROW their sexuality into someone's face it's annoying and there's no need.. why do you need to shove a sexuality into someone's face it's gonna make people judge the sexuality in a negative way ..
Because as I've been born again in Jesus, I believe that I am to follow Him and His commands and teachings, not let Him follow me wherever I choose to go. So as a Christian, my goal is to become more Christlike and abandon things in my life that are not Christlike.
I feel very sorry for you and your life. Such a terrible way of living.
I've been struggling being a Christian and being gay all my life. All I know is I'm not going to feel guilty or feel like I'm going to hell for the way I was born. I'm tired of Christianity and it's backwards ass rules tbh.
Homosexuality violates my religious views so I actually do not agree with it. It's a life choice that I don't partake in and would rather others not, but I can only live my own life.
I don't think of myself as a homophobe. I'm not scared of gay people and I don't hate them either. I love everyone!
Even though I don't agree on your views. You are right about the last part on phobias.
Which is why you'd rather not other people be gay? Ok. There must not be much fresh air in the closet.
you missed the key part of that quote: "but I can only live my own life". I would rather children not be auctioned off into the sex slave industry. I would rather people not kill each other. I would rather there be more kindness and love in the world. I would rather everyone follow Jesus and spend eternity with Him in Heaven. But I only have control over so much.
It's embarrassing to watch a group of gays who always whine about lack of tolerance in the world coming for a guy who admits he wants to be Christian and stay true to his beliefs. The lack of self-awarness.
People have the right to believe that homosexuality is wrong, but it doesn't mean they're right. You also have the right to believe the sky is green, but doesn't mean you're right. Just don't get upset when someone provides facts and serves you a cold dish called reality.
OK. But just as many of the people here don't agree with my religious views, I don't agree with their views on sex. Which is the point of discussion.
Yeah, but those people didn't violently kill others whose views were opposed to their interests for more than 10 centuries. If you've learned history in high school you would know what the Church was doing in the Middle Ages and once again i don't blame the religion for that but the religious people who blindly believe in wrong beliefs.

Did you know that theirs a gay couple in the bible right
People will always try to find a means to discriminate and justify their hate for someone who doesn't conform to their beliefs, and the most common and acceptable means is religion. Religion by itself has no form or shape and is only as good as the person that believes in it. The "I don't hate them but I hate the sin" excuse is as pathetic as the persons that use it,and in the words of St James, "...if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors. For whoever shall keep the whole law yet stumble in one point, he is guilty of all".
I feel very sorry for you and your life. Such a terrible way of living.
Please don't feel sorry for me. Diving into my personal wounds and discovering factors that have contributed to my struggles, and having the support of some of my closest friends, has helped me learn more about myself than I ever would have expected to learn.
