I am a believer and have been for 21 years, but I have some concerns regarding sins and what is accepted in the church and what is not.
To be honest, I have had same sex attractions since I was just a little kid and I have had same sex partners. About a year ago I felt called to leave that behind and remain single, but recently I have been questioning a few things.
According to the church, since the Bible says that marriage is to be between a man and a woman, then gay marriage is not allowed/is a sin. However, the Bible says that divorce (in 99% of cases) is a sin and that marrying a divorcee makes you an adulterer. Yet there are WAY MORE divorced people in the church than gay people, and this is just accepted and moved past. Why is this? Also the Bible states that gluttony is a sin, but look around you in church. What % of people are overweight or obese?!
Why is there a double standard? Why are people allowed to divorce/remarry, be overweight/obese and they still get to go to heaven yet someone who identifies as gay and marries the same sex is going to Hell? This just doesn’t make sense to me...
