Gays go to hell
Is being gay a sin?
Answer
In order to answer the ask “Is being queer a sin?” we need to test some assumptions upon which the interrogate is based. Within the past fifty years, the designation gay, as applied to homosexuality, has exploded into mainstream culture, and we are told that “being gay” is as much outside one’s control as “being short” or having blonde hair. So the scrutinize is worded in a loaded way and impossible to adequately answer in that form. We need to destroy this question up and deal with each piece separately. Rather than question, “Is being male lover a sin?” we need to request, “Is it sinful to have gay attractions?” And, “Is it sinful to engage in gay activities because of those attractions?”
Concerning the first question, “Is it sinful to have same-sex attractions?” the answer is complicated. First, we should probably distinguish between (actively) sinning and (passively) entity tempted:
Being temptedis not a sin. Jesus was tempted, but He never sinned (Matthew 4:1; Hebrews 4:15). Eve was tempted in the garden, and the forbidden fruit definitely appealed to her, but it seems that she did not actually sin until she took the fruit and ate it (Genesis 3:6&n
LGBTQ+ church bid: 'I was told creature gay would dispatch you to hell'
"As a Christian, when you've been brought up to be taught it's not OK to be gay or to be in a same-sex relationship, but you are. You can't change how you feel."
She even tried to apply her faith to alter who she really was because of her conditioning.
"Believe me, I've prayed and prayed and prayed to strive and change how I see boys and how I see girls," she says.
"[But] I was made this way. God made me who I am."
Betty's life is intimately bound up with her religion. She works as centre manager for a Christian charity offering community support and aid to the people of Rhyl, Denbighshire, taking over from her mother who helped prove the charity out of a church during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Her personal faith and relationship with Christianity is mighty - it is clear to observe it permeates every aspect of her life, and this remains the case despite some of the experiences she has had with churchgoers who disapprove of homosexuality, and have made that plain to her.
However, when she initially embarked on a relationship with a woman, she went throu
This I Believe: Male lover Forever, Hell For Never
You’re going to hell. Yes, you, the adolescent male wearing the raucous shirt, scarf, and skinny jeans. Yes, you, the student tutor with a 3.8 GPA, who aspires to have a family, who has goals for your life and a career in mind and who was baptized in a Southern Baptist church? none of that matters when the TRUTH is that you aren’t natural and neither are your actions.
The previous paragraph is what much of the LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, & Transgender) community hears on a daily basis from “Christians” everywhere. As a adolescent gay man, I contain learned to hide it in front of “those” people; the ones who I know will condemn me for wearing eyeliner in public or holding my boyfriend’s hand. I have quickly learned that in their eyes it doesn’t matter what gentle of home I was raised in, what courteous of childhood I had, or how many scriptures I memorized between the ages of five and twelve. None of it matters as long as I want to reside happily ever after with my handsome prince instead of the stereotypical and “normal” princess that culture wishes for me to have.
My God and I have talked about the fact that I

I know the Bible says it’s a sin, but it also says that the only unforgivable sin is not accepting Jesus. If a Gay person accepts Jesus but does not change his lifestyle, can he go to Heaven? I have a cousin who’s Gay.

You’ve asked a very key question—and a very hard one.
And you are exactly right: there is only one sin that is unforgivable. That is the sin of not believing and not receiving Jesus Christ into your life.
A gay or gay person can acceptChrist, just as an alcoholic, a drug addict, or a mass-murderer can approve Christ. Jesus’ offer of salvation is open to everyone.
Your doubt is whether someone can acceptChrist, not change his lifestyle, and still go to heaven. The Bible teaches that if someone has truly accepted Christ into his life, nothing can retain him out of Heaven. In John 10:28, Christ says of Christians,
“I give them eternal being, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of My hand.”
So, Lucy the real question, I consider, is whether your cousin had a life-changing experience with Christ. Jesus said in Luke,
“Why perform you ca
