Homosexuality
is a sin, it is known as sodomy. “And
there were also sodomites in the land: and
they did according to all the abominations of the nations which the
LORD cast out before the children of Israel.”
- I Kings 14:24.
So,
many people think that God somehow implanted a gene into people that
automatically makes them a homosexual. This is false, God made male
and female to join together as one not the same sex. “And
Adam said, This is
now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called
Woman, because she was taken out of Man. Therefore
shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto
his wife: and they shall be one flesh.”
- Genesis 2:23,24.
People
who believe that God made them gay just come to that conclusion on
their own, it is of their own choice, like any other choice. God will
not stop anyone from choosing the life they want to live, but the
truth is, homosexuality is of their own choice, not something God
made them to be. “Wherefore
God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own
hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Who
changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the
creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. For
this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their
women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman,
burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that
which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of
their error which was meet. And even as they did not like to retain
God in their
knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things
which are not convenient; Being filled with all unrighteousness,
fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy,
murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, Backbiters, haters of
God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things,
disobedient to parents, Without understanding, covenantbreakers,
without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: Who knowing the
judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of
death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.”
- Romans 1:24-32.
Homosexuality
is a sin and an abomination to God, just like any other sin and it
comes with the same consequences, “And
there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither
whatsoever
worketh abomination, or maketh
a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.”
- Revelation 21:27.
Likewise, many people think that God
hates people who are homosexual, this is false. It is sin, just like
any other sin and is treated just the same as any other sin. God
hates sin, not the sinner, remember, Jesus gave His life for sinners,
which we all are, “For
all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;”
- Romans 3:23. We all come short of heaven and deserve to be omitted
from the Book of Life, but just like any other sinner who receives
Christ as their Savior, God will save save homosexuals who ask them to save them too, “For
whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
- Romans 10:13.
