First of all, you're not allowed to post your email address, so you'll probably want to remove that from your post. I'm not sure if we're allowed to discuss homosexuality. I know that we're not allowed to debate it in this forum. As far as I can understand it, I think it can be debated only on the Philosophy & Morality, Liberal Theology or General Theology forums. A moderator might end up moving this thread to one of those. And I think you're allowed to ask for help in the Struggles with Sexuality forum.

So I'll just say that the Bible says homosexual behavior is a sin. And God can help us with all kinds of temptations. Everyone is tempted in different areas, but just because we are tempted to sin doesn't mean that we should give in. We can go to God for help in overcoming temptation and we should flee whatever temptations we may be faced with - in regard to *any* sin.

homosexual is a sin. the bible speaks of it in romans.. people will tell you its ok to be gay. and people will tell you that you are born that way.. we see that people are born with 2 sexual parts.. we dont know why.. but it happens..but i think they know if they are male or female. and thats for them to decide. however.. the world we live in is so set in the gay life. more and more people are coming out and saying that they are gay. its sin. and we all sin and come short of the glory of God. but it is sin.. i will give you what the bible says on the matter.......


ROMANS 3:21 BECAUSE THAT, WHEN THEY KNEW GOD THEY GLORIFIED HIM NOT AS GOD, NEITHER WERE THANKFUL, BUT BECAME VAIN IN THIER IMAGINATIONS, AND THIER FOOLISH HEART WAS DARKENED
VERSE 22 PROFESSING THEMSELFS TO BE WISE, THEY BECAME FOOLS,
VERSE 23 AND CHANGED THE GLORY OF THE UNCORRUPIBLE GOD INTO AN IMAGE MADE LIKE A CORRUPTIBLE MAN, AND TO BIRDS AND FOUR FOOTED BEAST, AND CREEPY THINGS
VERSE 24 WHEREFORE GOD ALSO GAVE THEM UP TO UNCLEANNESS THROUGH THE LUST OF THIER OWN HEARTS, TO DISHONOUR THIER OWN BODIES BETWEEN THEMSELF
VERSE 25 WHO CHANGED THE TRUTH OF GOD INTO A LIE, AND WORSHIPPED AND SERVED THE CREATURE MORE THAN THE CREATOR WHO IS BLESSED FOREVER AMEN
VERSE 26 FOR THIS CAUSE GOD GAVE THEM UP UNTO VILE AFFECTION, FOR EVEN THEIER WOMAN DID CHANGED THE NATURAL USE INTO THAT WHICH IS AGAINST NATURE.
VERSE 27 AND LIKEWISE ALSO THE MEN, LEAVING THE NATURAL USE OF A WOMAN BURNED IN THIER LUST ONE TOWARD ANOTHER, MEN WITH MEN WORKING THAT WHICH IS UNSEEMLY, AND RECIEVING THEMSELFS THAT RECOMPENCE OF THIER ERROR WHICH WAS MET.
VERSE 28 AND EVEN AS THEY DID NOT LIKE TO RETAIN GOD IN THIER KNOWLEDGE, GOD GAVE THEN OVER TO A REPROBATE MIND, TO DO THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE NOT CONVENIENT,
VERSE 29 BEING FILLED WITH ALL UNRIGHTOUSNESS, FORNICATION. WICKEDNESS, COVETOUSNESS, MALICIOUSNESS, FULL OF ENVY, MURDER, DEBATE, DECIET, MALIGNITY, WHISPERS
VERSE 30 BACKBITERS HATERS OF GOD, DESPITFUL, PROUD, BOASTFUL, INVETORS OF EVIL THINGS, DISOBEDIENT TO PARENTS,
VERSE 31 WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING, COVENANT BREAKERS, WITH OUT NATURAL AFFECTION INPLACEABLE UNMERCIFUL
VERSE 32 WHO KNOWING THE JUDGMENT OF GOD , THAT THEY COMMIT SUCH THINGS ARE WORTHY OF DEATH, NOT ONLY DO THE SAME, BUT HAVE PLEASURE IN DOING THEM.

THESE ARE GOOD VERSES.
