EX GAY SE RENCILIA N JúS “DS NUN ME Jó”
While speakg Sgapore at a semar sponsored by Foc on the Fay, I was asked the qutn: What about ex-ex-gays? Do their existence prove that is really impossible for people to change their sexual orientatn? * ex gay dios *
In regards to the qutn of whether or not homosexualy is a permanent ndn, one of the earlit historil rerds regardg of the existence of ex-homosexuals is a letter of the Apostle Pl to the Corthian Christian church. Whehead thored a book wh his wife entled My Gen Ma Me Do - a scientific look at sexual orientatn which argu that there is no geic termism regards to homosexualy and that there is abundant documentatn that dividuals are able to leave homosexualy and bee heterosexuals. The studi have been so numero that Wt (a gay man) 1977 took an entire chapter his classic book, Homosexualy Re-examed, to review them, and mented: “Although some ant homosexuals fd such claims improbable and unpalatable, thentited acunts have been published of apparently exclive and long-standg homosexuals unexpectedly changg their orientatn.
” [8] For example, when the alleged homosexual, male pengu "Harry" mated wh a female pengu (see: Homosexualy animals myth), the homosexual activist Wayne Ben angrily exclaimed "“There is no ‘ex-gay’ sexual orientatn. ’”[9] In Madison, Wisns an ex-homosexual was forced to do 50 hours of muny service and unrgo "tolerance trag" (or face jail time and f) due to a discsn he had wh a homosexual (see: Hate Crime Law Misapplied to Ex-homosexual). The nial that homosexualy is a choice by homosexual activists and liberals is siar to the behavr of fat acceptance movement activists who sist that beg overweight is never a choice and ostracize ex-overweight people (see: fat acceptance movement for tails).
The classic biblil mentator Matthew Henry wrote the followg regardg the fivens and sanctifitn Christ for those who repent of the above ss listed the letter of Pl to the Corthians (which clus the s of homosexualy):. As the publisher of a 13 year old perdil which targets Black gays and lbians, I have had the opportuny to publicly addrs thoands, fluencg closeted people to ‘e out’ and stand up for themselv, which is particularly difficult the Ain-Amerin muny.

¿DEJAR LA VIDA GAY? 10 TTIMONS HOMOSEXUAL QUE LO HICIERON: GANARON EN FELICIDAD Y PAZ
Uno los sos más llamativos el difunto pastor Joi Miranda, fundador ABexLGBTT (Asociación Brasileña Ex LGBTT), una anización que tiene o objetivo ayudar a las personas que sean abandonar la homosexualidad. Send, the term "ex-gay" has lots of different meangs (some lears like the term, while others don't), rangg om, "I ed to be volved same-sex relatnships, and I am no longer am, " to, "My romantic and sexual sir have changed om homosexual to heterosexual, " along wh everythg between. I know others who, through unselg or a ep spirual enunter wh the Lord, lerally went om homosexual to heterosexual (this is more mon than you might realize), and they have lived like this for s now.
The bottom le is that homosexual practice, unr all circumstanc, is sful, and nothg n possibly change that fact, but is equally te that there is liberty and new life J, and those willg to take up the cross and follow Him will never need to look back. The 19th century wrer Osr Wil is revered by many the gay and lbian muny but, believe me, if he were alive now, he’d be totally exasperated wh the whg, hysteril malntents who domate today’s gay lobby. If “ex-gays” exist, this means that people n change their sexual orientatn — and this means that the foundatn the homosexual rights movement, the ia that they are “born that way” and th nnot help themselv, go right out the wdow.
EX-GAY
Many ex-gays are aaid to e out of the closet bee of the harassment they will receive — their nam, phone numbers and personal rmatn posted on gay webs, attacked at ex-gay exhib booths, prs releas issued agast them, etc.
”3 This is an odd assertn, sce a tailed review of homosexual obuari showed several exampl of men who were happily married, who had children, and who nsired themselv “straight” sudnly abandong their fai and embracg the homosexual “liftyle. But the “scientific” methods ed this study would make any legimate rearcher crge; the “study” managers did not terview a large group of “ex-gays;” they simply sought out people who claimed that they had been harmed (an tensive procs that took a full five years) and then nmned such therapy. Now may be impractil to “nvert” totally om homosexualy to heterosexualy, but if unselg n allow a gay man to rpond sexually to women, should be enuraged and appld, not lambasted or lampooned.
In natns where “nversn therapy” has been banned, homosexual activists have liberately approached Christian unselors pretendg to want to bee straight, and have lied to them orr to strip them of their licens. As one leadg English homosexual activist said, “We want to root out therapists and psychiatrists who are practicg the techniqu and ultimately brg an end to them through exposg them, as well as disptg their meetgs. Psychologists and unselors the jurisdictns are forbidn to unsel homosexuals their attempts to bee straight — even if they want this unselg — but are perfectly ee to tell a straight person all about the many alleged benefs of homosexualy.

¿QUé VIENE SPUéS L MOVIMIENTO EXGAY? LO MISMO QUE VO ANT.
Alan Medger, el primer director ejecutivo Exod Internatnal, la scribía [todos los enlac redirigen a ntenidos en glés] o «un mb en la percepción sí mismo en la que el dividuo ja intifirse o homosexual». Los recient bat entre anglinos y prberianos nservador sobre si alguien pue afirmar una «intidad gay» son solo la última ronda disputas siar que han ronado en los pasillos la iglia durante años. Como cribió Stott en su libro Issu Facg Christians Today [Cutn que aontan los cristianos hoy] en 1982: «En toda disción sobre la homosexualidad bemos ser rigurosos al diferenciar entre “ser” y “hacer”, cir, entre la intidad y la actividad una persona, la preferencia sexual y la prácti sexual, la nstución y la nducta».
En Estados Unidos, mientras los disturbs Stonewall en 1969 en Nueva York anunciaban el nacimiento l movimiento por los rechos los homosexual, los prottant ortodoxos ya se preguntaban qué visión posiva dan las Escruras a las personas que son homosexual. El libro publido bajo un sdónimo por InterVarsy Prs 1970 The Returns of Love: Letters of a Christian Homosexual [Las vueltas l amor: Cartas un homosexual cristiano] trazó una trategia cuidado y fue promovido por Stott. Schaeffer previó mbs cultural signifitivos cuando, en 1978, una ngregación la Iglia Prberiana Ortodoxa San Francis se enntró n una manda tras haber spedido a un empleado gay que había vlado el código nducta la iglia.
Como enfatizó Stott tan apasnadamente en su libro, la persona gay que sigue a Jús be vivir por fe, peranza y amor: fe, tanto en la gracia Ds, o en s tatutos; peranza, que surge ver más allá ta vida prente llena luchas y voltear la vista hacia nutra gloria futura; y el amor por el que bemos vivir, explicó, el amor que bemos recibir Cristo y la faia pirual Cristo, cir, la iglia. El libro 1978 l historiador la Iglia, Richard Lovelace, Homosexualy and the Church [La homosexualidad y la Iglia], recibió el apoyo lumarias evangélis o Ken Kantzer (antiguo edor CT), Elisabeth Ellt, Chuck Colson, Harold Ockenga y Carl F.

Mientras observo cómo las iglias y nomacn evangélis se abren paso a tientas en las discn sobre orientación e intidad sexual, a menudo imponiendo el lenguaje y las tegorías un movimiento exgay asado, tamos perdiendo la verdara batalla: la cultura circundante ha nvencido al mundo que los cristianos odian a los homosexual. Ya tán cutnando su fe porque cuchan a su alredor que los cristianos odian a los homosexual, y no puen enntrar a nadie en su ngregación que sea gay, fiel al Señor, y sea amado y aceptado o tal.
