Would you say then, that it is ok if a homosexual person is (obviosly) gay, but does not have relations with another man? I mean, surely they cannot help it? I used to think that I might be Bi-sexual due to a psychological thing that happened when i was a kid, now that im a little older and wiser I know that I am not, but one of friends is gay, and he is a Christian.
We all have to practice self-control over the flesh whether our burden or particular sin is homosexuality or any other sin. We have to turn from our sin and God will give us the grace power to overcome them. We all have the same battle in common with the flesh that passes away with its sexuality. These bodies are only temporary dwelling places for our spirits and the Holy Spirit.
The Bible is very plain about homsexual sin as being displeasing to God as is greed, anger, fornication......and the list of the works of the flesh.
Gal. 5:17 The old sinful nature loves to do evil, which is just opposite from what the Holy Spirit wants. And the Spirit gives us desires that are opposite from what the sinful nature desires. These two forces are constantly fighting each other, and your choices are never free from this conflict
19 When you follow the desires of your sinful nature, your lives will produce these evil results: sexual immorality, impure thoughts, eagerness for lustful pleasure,
20 idolatry, participation in demonic activities, hostility, quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, divisions, the feeling that everyone is wrong except those in your own little group,
21 envy, drunkenness, wild parties, and other kinds of sin. Let me tell you again, as I have before, that anyone living that sort of life will not inherit the Kingdom of God.
Re 12:11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
