While there may be people born with a prepensity to sexual desires or alcohol, God did not make them that way, sin made them that way. The truth is that every baby born into this world has a propensity to sin becuase their parents have a propensity to sin. When Adam and Eve sinned, they passed the pronensity to sin to all mankind.

This is only trickery from satan that leads man into thinking that homosexual tendencies come from God. God is not a man that He should lie or even make a mistake in creating and selecting our genders. According to Jeremiah He knew us before our development so how could a God who knew us before we were formed in our mother's womb make a mistake with our identity. In general man likes to control who he should love and how he should love. We service a God of complete goodness and we are so suppose to walk in that same image of goodness there are no exceptions to the rules. Homosexuality is a spirit of satan" that is kept alive through man's willingness to feed his lustful flesh any way he sees fit. Its the same thing when we as humans desire to eat foods that do not nourish our bodies. Especially those foods that we crave over and over again that we find are ourselves eating because they seem to satisfy but in reality they are damaging our bodies in one way or another,In most cases leading us closer to death than good health. Some homosexuals particularly bi-sexuals could be considered bulimic simply because they sometimes feed the flesh with unhealthy nourishment but then brings it up and out of the body in engaging in heterosexual relationships. Their behavior too is just like Adam and Eve in attempting to keep hidden their sin against God. Satan I feel is much more proud of the bisexuals than the out right homosexual because the bisexual cannot be dedicated to neither gender and therefore covers more territorial grounds in sinning for satan. As Christians we know satan works better when his adgenda is hidden
or camouflage.

Jesus told us to take the log out of our own eye before we try and take the speck out of another's. Sometimes it's hard to remember that ALL sin is equally offensive to God.

I don't understand homosexuality, but I do understand my own sins. Some of my sins I struggle with. Some I try to deny. The sins I have overcome, like alcoholism, still lurk. The sins I deny still do harm. I assume that most homosexuals have found denial much more appealing than guilt. In any case the damage from the sin still occurs. The only "way out" is to confess the sin, ask forgiveness and seek God's help in overcoming it.

Sin is sin. We don't get to choose which sins are "most important". Sin is not relative or situational. There are absolutes. Oh yes, and judgement without compassion is a sin too.

My Testimony: The Bible says to repent of your sins...I did. The Bible teaches to be baptized in the name of Jesus for remission of sins. I was baptized in water in Jesus name. 3rd. The Bible teaches to be filled with the Holy Ghost. I was filled with the Holy Ghost and spoke in tongues. That was back in 1978. I only wish people would take their beliefs a step farther. SALVATION IS FOUND IN THE BOOK OF ACTS. No one was baptized in Matthew, Mark, Luke, or John. Only in the book os Acts is the book of Salvation. Just like Genesis is the only book in the Bible about creation. Romans-Jude teaches a believer "how" to stay saved. Then one book on Revelation.

Larry, Was not Jesus himself baptised in all four Books of the Gospels?

Larry,
John was baptizing in the Gospels and he even baptized Jesus himself. As for being baptized in Jesus name, that is great but didn't Jesus himself say to go and baptize in the name of the Father, The Son and The Holy Ghost? I'm not being a smart aleck but Peter is the one who said to be baptized in Jesus' name, was he saying just his name or might he have been joining all of the three in one comment. Rather than take the servants word on this one statement, shouldn't we go with the word of the Master himself? Wasn't you baptized with the Holy Ghost when you were saved? Why did you have to seek something else? The Holy Ghost is the one who performed the job of saving you. When people were baptized with the Holy Ghost in the Bible, that was because he had not come at that time, he has been here for two thousand years now and he has been saving souls all that time. By the way I hope you do know that The Holy Ghost is a he, not an it? A lot of people has not been taught that, again don't be offended by what I have said, that is not my intention, it is just in a lot of church's these thing are not taught according to the teaching of the scriptures.

Hi Larry, Please don't take my question defensively. I am very moved by your testemony. Each one of us who came to the Lord has our own story and our own understanding of it. The critical issue is: were we born a new person, with a new heart and a new object of the love of that heart? I am sure that you were and that your life has never been the same. I know that mine hasn't. God bless you and keep sharing the Good News!

I heard a great comeback to the fairness complaint one time, surprisingly from radio personality Neal Bortz. Neal doesn't have a lot of nice things to say about all kinds of people, including Christians, but his reply was priceless. A homosexual guy called in and complained that it was not fair that he could not not legally marry like a heterosexual man can. Neal said, "Sir, it's perfectly fair. You can get married, too. You can marry a woman, just like they can." I thought that was priceless, and had a way of focusing the issue on what it is all about. It's not about fairness, it's about homosexuals wanting to redefine marriage as something different from what it has always been.
