I see being homosexual and a Christian as a cross we have to bare. Just as some people are physically and mentally handicapped. You can't not be gay. You just have to decide what is more important to you knowing that being gay is wrong in Gods eyes and continuing to act on those desires or just knowing you can't have that relationship. I am married to a man although I am gay. Pm me if you want.

Hi,

I felt pulled by the Spirit to respond to you. First of all, I'm praying for God to grant you understanding and discernment as you seek after Him for deliverance and peace. I've been set free from homosexuality <edit> Remember that Christ paid the price for our sins and we can only overcome when we plead His sacrifice over our sins. Please understand that you cannot change yourself, and start being 'normal' apart from Christ. First pray to God, in the name of Jesus to forgive you for all your sins and to save you by the power of the blood of Christ.

I beg you to please reach out to someone that is strong in the faith and share, in confidence, what you are going through. When people stare and make comments, don't hold it against them. The Bible tells us that our struggles and pain are cause by forces of the enemy, and humans have the power to speak life or death without even knowing it. When they make comments that infuse or set off homosexual feelings, that's just the enemy bringing thoughts into your head to affect your identity. There is not enough space here to explain the tactics of our enemy but know this, the battle always start in your mind then it reaches your heart until you believe it and start acting on what you believe. The enemy is crafty and this is one of his tactics. Homosexuality <edit> is not overcome overnight....PLEASE cry out to God and talk to someone you trust and someone who can pray with you. You will be amazed at how God will bring relief after you've talked to someone.

The bible says that
"As a man thinketh in his heart so is he" Prov 23:7...the enemy is trying to convince you through your thoughts and feelings that you are gay so that you become what you believe.

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and DO NOT depend on your own understanding. Acknowledge God in all your ways and he will direct you" Prov 3: 5-6... Pray to God every time you have thoughts, feelings or just feel down and he will bring relief.

"Our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the DARKNESS of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places" Eph 6:12 ... because the enemy operates in darkness and God operates in light, you MUST talk to someone about this. When you talk about what is hidden in darkness, you're bringing your struggle to light. Therefore the enemy seizes to have power over you. Do it! I speak from experience. But talk to someone you know is strong in the Lord.

I will continue to pray for you. As I personally understand what you are going through.

May God shower blessings over your life, may you see Him in all of His power and might. I declare over you a spirit of faith that perseveres in the Word, in Jesus' name. AMEN!

Listen, there's nothing wrong with being gay in itself, it's only the acts that are sinful. Sure, having the attractions are bad, but I doubt you'll be sent to hell for something you can't help.You lust like everyone else, and therefore you have to resist it just like everyone else. And I'd like to mention a few things here about my past with homosexuality, but the staff here would edit my posts like they do with everything on here. But what I'm trying to say to you is this: if your church and supposedly Christian family hate you, then can you say they're acting with Christ's compassion? I'm not saying to come out and be openly gay, I'm just telling you that you can be free with your friends and people in Christ. I've personally tried to become straight, and I haven't found a way yet, but I know there is a way out there. And if not, the better our reward will be for overcoming our attractions.
