• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

I have been bothered with a sin a commited not to long ago, and i feel i going to hell for this.I had sex with a transexual about a month ago and it's been stuck in my head every day since. I not attracted to men at all but ever since i seen transexual porn when i was younger it interested me. I watched it so much i got addicted to it and wanted to try it.

My whole mindstate is messed up and i need help i have no one to talk to. As of right now i am ashamed to be alive.. I don't have a relationship with a girl because i feel gay and it would be disrepectful since i had sex with a man.I lost drive to do anything, such as work, being with family and friends. I feel worhtless if anyone i care about knew they would disown me

I wanted to asked forgiveness from god but he probably hated me since i am considered gay. I also wanted to know will i go to hell for what i did? Can i get some advice or help thanks in advance

Trill Texas!
Hey there!

1) GOD DOESNT HATE HIS SONS OR DAUGHTERS! He is full of mercy. He feels sad for you.
2) CONFESS YOUR SINS! Admit them. You must understand that it is sin.
3) Go to pastor. You also have to find person or partner. Just try to speak with him. I would also suggest you going to psychologist. Just tell him everything. Try to unleash
all you sorrows.
Read Bible! God forgives you when you ask Him. GOD NEVER leaves you!
DELETE BURN SMASH ALL YOU DISCS WITH YOU KNOW WHAT! ASK YOUR FRIENDS TO SET PASSWORD OR INSTALL PROGS WHICH CAN BLOCK YOU KNOW WHAT SITES!
Oh My brother! I do pary for you! All forum is your and always ready to help you!

Dear brother,

I can feel with you! Sure, I have not made the same experiences as you, but it's related and I can perfectly understand you. I can understand what lead you to do this and I can understand how you feel now!

Please listen closely to Fowler, there's nothing I could add to his list! Please don't listen to people telling you God hates you for what you've done. He does not hate us, he hates our sin. Because our sin will kill us eventually. But he wants us to live and he wants us to be happy. Happy we can be only when being with God. If we are not, then we are not happy and hence, try to numb the void in our life with drugs, porn or sex.

I am sure, God will forgive you and he will give you a helping had. So as Jesus said to the adulterer:

Jesus straightened up and asked her, Woman, where are they? Has no-one condemned you? No-one, sir, she said. Then neither do I condemn you, Jesus declared. Go now and leave your life of sin.

Peace to you. God was not surprised when you committed this act. He is not surprised by your thoughts. He loves you. He loves you as much when you are praising Him in church as He does when you are committing sin. I am not saying there are not consequences, there are. But don't let the enemy condemn you into being too ashamed to speak with your heavenly Father. We all struggle with something.

I am praying for you.

Thank yall for the advice, I will try all of that. I am embarassed of myself because i am considered homo even though i am not attracted to men. I know this sounds dumb but i cant even date a girl because if i tell what i done she would want nothing to do with me, you know how people react to this kind of stuff.

P.S
Isn't homosexuality a abdomination someone told u go to hell for committing one of those

Hey bro,
I agree with all that has been said here. What you need to realize is that God doesn't categorize sin like we do. When pauls lists of sins in 1 cor 6:9 among those is homosexuality but also idolatry, premarital sex, and adultery. Homosexuality is no more an abomination than any other sin cause it is all falling short of the glory of God. All sins are forgivable bro. So you're not going to hell, any more than the christian struggling with lust or lying or anything else. Think about it where does all these thoughts lead you? they dont lead to God but away from God so they must be from the enemy. Who is in the process of stealing your joy, destroying your life. If you think about it all of us have bad stuff, mistakes we have done that none of us would share with our girlfriend, that is at first. That is some kind of information you would share with someone you know is the only one for you, who knows you better than any past thing you've done. All I am saying is don't let this one mistake paralyze you but get up get rid of those sinful thoughts and like Colossians 3 says set your mind on heavenly things.

Write me anytime

Hi TrillTexas

Sin is sin, and God's grace covers ALL sin. Whether it's pride, greed, dishonesty, murder, or homosexuality, God forgives all sin. If you believe in Jesus and seek his forgiveness, then you are forgiven of all sin, regardless of what it is. So it's not true that if you commit the sin of homosexuality you automatically go to hell. In Corinthians, Paul talks about the Christians in that church, and comments how some of them used to be homosexual, but that they are now new creations in Christ.

God loves you, and will forgive you. And He walks with you through your healing. Usually it's not an instant thing, it takes time to change, but He can do it.

There are some groups out there who can help you with this, if you need any more resources just ask. Praying for you.

Yea, God hates the idea of homosexuality. he didnt create sex for that.

But God doesnt judge a person like that. He doesnt go; Great, He did something I dont approve of so therefore I now hate him and I think yea, ill send him to burn.

The first thing god think when we do something he hates, like homosexuality, is help that person.


He is a god of grace and will instantly resort to forgiveness and help you work through it.

If we repent, as it sounds your doing, we are new creatures. We are no longer the old, we are no longer gay, or murdererd or anything like that. We are also Justified in Gods eyes.

Thanks for your advice. But i still got a guilty consious about this. I keep feeling like i don't deserved anything at all, such as being in love or anything. No one would want to date a man who had been with another man. How do you guys think i should handle this?

P.S
Another question, i had a discussion with someone and they told me in the bible you were supposed to stone or kill gaypeople if that the case i can god forgive what i did then. Even though i'm not gay.

You know, in the old testament, you were supposed to stone disobedient children as well... and I doubt any of us would have grown up if that still happened!
But Jesus fulfilled the Law, He did away with all that because He took all our punishment Himself.
God convicts us of sin so that we can repent. And you have obviously done that :hug:
The bible says :
1 John 1:9
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.


That means that God has not only forgiven you, He has made you pure, clean, as though it never happened.
When God looks at you, He doesn't see the sin, Hew sees the righteousness of Jesus.
God never condemns, brother. He loves you, and He has forgiven you. Forgiving yourself can be harder, I know.. but, please believe that God has no desire to send you to hell, for this or any other sin.
You are loved, and you are pure in His eyes :hug:

Amen.

Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. 21 But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light...

It is neither wrong or shameful to talk openly and confess sin to other people. By the same token it is not a prerequisite to confess sin to other men and women to gain freedom - but only to confess to God as a way of repentance. However, confessing sin, openly, can give hope and encouragement to other brothers and sisters who need building up, as well as accountability.

We are not defined as individuals by how people perceive us. We are defined by who we are in Christ. God sees within, man only foolishly judges externally. With God Truth alone or actual reality is all that counts. Those who seek to keep their sin hidden do not magically make it go away. This is the non-believers approach to dealing with sin (not believers such as yourself). This is a classic example of the worlds wisdom, which in the eyes of God is complete and utter foolishness. Sin can only be permanently overcome through that growing and deepening relationship to our Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ…

Here's the bottom line: once you ask God for forgiveness from what you have done, you're forgiven.

It might seem difficult, but you need to stop worrying about what you have done and what people keep telling you about how things used to be done. This is a new era, there are no more stonings and God doesn't send people to hell just because they sin.

We all sin everyday. All those sins look the same in God's eyes. You're adding unnecessary stress to your life worrying about how people see you and what God thinks.

God thinks you're great just the way you are. He loves you regardless of the fact that you had sex with a transsexual or that you look at transsexual porn.

By the way, how old are you?
