Thank you for sharing the link. May I ask if you have ever witnessed to such a person? I personally have not, therefore, I am curious to know if you have and what was said. Thank you for answering my questions.

Hello I just wanted to share a great book that could be used as a tool when witnessing to homosexuals.
here the link for more info touchingadeadman.com
Thanks, I'll check out that link. Man, they're so many complex issues dealing with that scenario. Not to take it too lightly, but I sometimes try to tell them that "Jesus wants to make you his bride."
Homosexuals will say that they were born that way, I tell them we are all born into sin and that is why God sent his son to wash our sins away. Just because they struggle with sexual sin, I tell them that everyone struggles with some kind of sin, addictions, murder, lieing, stealing, fornication, adultry, a sin is a sin in the eyes of God. Most have had a missing parent and whatever parent is missing, they will tend to draw near that same sex as they get older and when they reach puberty, it becomes sexual and they are confused. Some have been raped or molested while they were young and that lust spirit has entered them and taken over.
touching a dead man? thats worse than gay! one time i got in a conversation with a gay man who was dressed like a girl about it being wrong or whatever, then that dude told me he was born with a penis and a vagina! i definatley didnt believe that, but he lifted up his skirt and LOOKOUT! that was for real!

Yes, such people are known as hermaphrodites or intersexed.
Also, keep in mind this quote from St. Francis of Assisi:
Preach the Gospel at all times and use words only when necessary. - St. Francis of Assisi

im homosexual but im also christian...my sin doesnt make me any less devout as someone else. sin is sin.
my collegue at work has 'witnessed' to me about my sin and im more than willing to discuss it with him and discuss ways to be closer to Christ
and my advice to you is dont force it upon people or make them feel guilty. the guilt that people feel has led them to terrible things such as losing their faith, taking their own life etc.
be compassionate.
we all want people to be saved but we dont go around pin-pointing people's bad points and ploughing into them until they repent, so dont forget that there is a person beyond the sexuality. whether they are ready to change or not is between them and God and all you and i can do is lead them towards following Jesus. Christianity is absolutely wonderful and we want people to know that is it ALL about Jesus...not about being in a hetrosexual relationship

Ok, I guess I really don't want to know.
