CAN SOMEONE BE GAY AND CHRISTIAN? IS POSSIBLE TO BE A GAY CHRISTIAN?

The issue of homosexualy is very ntroversial, even among Christians. Many wonr if is possible to be a gay Christian. However, the Bible is very clear that gay sexual activy is nsired sful and that a Christian is not to take part such activi.

IS POSSIBLE TO BE A GAY CHRISTIAN?

Romans 1:26-27 not gay activy as "unnatural" while 1 Corthians 6:9-10 lists same sex activy as somethg done by those who will "not her the kgdom of God. In fact, Pl's list clus, "the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexualy, nor thiev, nor the greedy, nor dnkards, nor revilers, nor swdlers" (1 Corthians 6:9-10). Is homosexualy a s?

Many of spent years ex-gay or nversn therapy mistri, begged God for liverance, or mated endlsly on the Bible vers we thought nmned LGBTQ+ people.

Example: Tiffany’s son Lnel jt me out as gay. She tells him she accepts his inty, but urg celibacy as the only way to be acceptable to God as a gay Christian.

This view implicly or explicly supports efforts to alter someone’s sexual orientatn or genr inty through nversn therapy practic, and is sometim referred to as Si X or Ex-gay iology. Si X/Ex-gay iology is both dangero and medilly discreded. The are marriag where at least one person is married to a person of a differg sexual inty, such as a heterosexual man married to a gay woman.

So one signifint reason why gay marriage wasn’t addrsed Scripture was bee wasn’t a cultural issue; marriage between two people of the same genr was out of the qutn, sce romantic feelgs was not the reason for marriage—procreatn ia of a personal sexual orientatn was foreign to them.

I Corthians 6:9 & I Timothy 1:10Before 1946, there were no Bibl that ntaed the word “homosexual. ” The Greek words mistranslated as “homosexual” have historilly been translated as “sodom, ” “abers of themselv wh mankd, ” “liers wh mankd, ” “perverts, ” and “buggerers. Unfortunately, the 1946 Revised Standard Versn troduced the word “homosexual” to our English Bibl, and many other English translatns chose to follow their example.

Simply put, the translatns that chose to e the word “homosexual” are error. It wasn’t simply an issue of homosexualy but the abe and exploatn of another person as a monstratn of power. Do not be ceived; neher fornitors, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effemate, nor homosexuals, nor thiev, nor the veto, nor dnkards, nor revilers, nor swdlers, will her the kgdom of God” (1 Corthians 6:9-10).

There is a tenncy to clare homosexualy as the worst of all ss. While is unniable, biblilly speakg, that homosexualy is immoral and unnatural (Romans 1:26-27), no sense do the Bible scribe homosexualy as an unfivable s.

Nor do the Bible teach that homosexualy is a s Christians will never stggle agast.
