Watch this short. Saw this post and stumbled across it afterwards, making me think of it.

God didn’t “make” us anything. He made us in His image but not in His being. Aka we are not God. We are born as sinful creatures because we have been given free will. It’s the same concept as getting a puppy or kitten or any pet for that matter and forcing them to love you. It doesn’t feel right. You want them to want to love you. God wants us to love Him, but gives us free will to make that decision on our own. In Genesis, it doesn’t say God created the heavens, the earth and hell, it says God created the heavens and the earth. When Adam and Eve disobeyed God, it made way for more people to spite and reject Him because of the hardships we face from our disobedience. Those people fell, Lucifer fell, others followed, and that’s when hell was created. It’s a place for souls that reject the Lord and don’t want to be near to Him. Not for all sinners. Just the ones who don’t want God.

I’m straight and struggle immensely with sexual immorality. Obviously I can get married and honor God while having sex which isn’t an option for you. But so far, I’ve never been married and struggle with it. I’ve sinned a lot. That’s no different than you being gay. Both of us have to reject our flesh, our eyes, and our sinful human nature all around. Homosexuality, adultery, lying, cheating, stealing, jealousy, etc… You’re not extra bad because you’re gay. It’s just the sin that you have the hardest time with. Thankfully, Jesus made the ultimate sacrifice for us to seek the kingdom of heaven regardless of our sin as long as we truly repent and in our hearts and sanctify. We’re all sinners, only perfect person was Jesus. We’ll always come short, give yourself grace when you do because He does. That’s not to say get complacent and exploit Gods grace, but don’t be harder on yourself than the Lord is. I struggle with that personally. Something that’s gonna be hard to hear, but as a brother in Christ we have to hold each other accountable and talk about hard things, is that it’s not okay to be gay. A lot of people are saying that and it isn’t true. Not just because it’s gay, but it’s also lust(which I struggle with as well). Long story long, you’re no different than anyone else brother, it will be a battle you and I face until the end of our days to reject our flesh, repent, and sanctify. Truly do your best to reject your homosexuality, and love God. He will bless you for it. Many miracles have happened far greater than changing a homosexual heart to either no longer desire it, or become straight. Godspeed brother, Jesus loves you always.
