can someone be christian, really christian, follow christ and everything, and be gay? can you be a gay person (and i am targeting specifically guys in this thread) and still follow christ with all your heart, mind, and soul? Because the bible says that sexual impurity is wrong...but...iunno, it's a line...but i know so many people who are christians and follow christ with all they are, but struggle so hard with their homosexual feelings....
let's hear it... |

Oh. Mis-read. Went off on a unnecessary tangent. xD
To answer the question at hand, yes, I do think that is possible. Being Christian is about the belief in Jesus and exemplifying our faith in the way we live our lives. However, as humans, we are bound to make mistakes. These mistakes are called sins. Being gay is obviously a sin. So then, if you put this into the context of your question, you are asking, "can someone be christian, really christian, follow christ and everything, and be sinning? can you be a sinful person and still follow christ with all your heart, mind, and soul?" Yes, you could. See, the point of this is to put "being gay" on an equal table. They do not hold more or less value than another. All sins are equal in God's eye, except for the unforgivable sin of blasphemy. I don't know what it is, but people tend to look at being gay differently than let's say, if you lied. Sins are sins, people. Simple as that. Maybe that didn't help or make any sense at all. It made sense in my mind at 3am. ![]() |
