Yes. It’s not someone’s fault if they have lesbian or homosexual inclinations. But putting them into practice is always sinful, and then it becomes their choice and their fault.

Sometimes God gives us great difficulties, of one kind or another, but with His grace we are always given the chance to overcome them or turn them to our greater good, and thus to grow stronger. If this preacher can use his own weakness of homosexual inclinations as he does here, then they are in practice transformed by grace from a flaw into a kind of gift—making him, as here, a more convincing apostle to the LGBT community. And also, a reminder of the distinction of the vast difference between homosexual inclinations and homosexual practices.
