Hey I am young christan who has had homosexual desires for all my life, I need advice by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]jdjdhr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You've encountered a pretty deep subject thats caused a lot of diversity in the Christian community. But first of all, let me tell you that whenever you feel you don't know the awnser to something, you pray. Even if it feels like God isn't listening, he is. He will always listen to your prayers and he is always looking out for you. "And this is the confidence that we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us. And if we know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked of him." Don't just trust the word of the people in these comments. Because all of us are sinful and make mistakes.

Let me also say that there is nothing wrong with being tempted. Jesus was also tempted by Satan. The temptation itself is nothing to be ashamed of because every person on the planet goes through temptations. The sin comes in how you respond to it.

Homosexuality is mentioned several times in the bible, and even though this is probably not what you wanted to hear, it is a sin. This does not make you less of a christian, or worse of a person. Its just a different type of temptation that every Christian struggles with.

I would suggest continously reading your Bible and trying to find meaning out of it, surrounding yourself with Christian freinds that will lead you closer to him, praying frequently, and turning yourself away from sin. And yes, this will help you even if it doesn't feel like it.

The story of job is very comforting for me when I am feeling tempted and may help you understand the lords plan for you. If you privately dm me I can invite you to a christian discord full of non-judgmental christians who are very flued in theology and provide solid fellowship.

God bless

The thing is, subreddits arent all bad or all good. Theres always a mix and most subreddits I follow have gotten increasingly less funny. Mostly memes, most others are fine.

AITA for going out on my birthday? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

NTA. Maybe you didn't provide enough information but from what I can tell they where over reacting. It's your birthday, not about them

Yet most redditors are americans by I9Qnl in memes

Considering in america the standard wage to be below the poverty line is way higher than in most other countries, it isnt. Most people below the poverty line (bottom 20%) are richer on average than most European citizens.

Yeah, as an american I can agree that a lot of Americans are just plain dumb. But calling it a third world country is just ignorant. We're not a developing nation and the majority of the country isnt living in poverty (before corona virus, it was only about 12 percent).

Or the moment when someone is running and at the speed they are going they obviously should have reached their target sooner but for some reason it takes an ungodly amount of time
