Many Christians are understandably confused.

Sorry but it's not understandable.

“Sorry but it’s not understandable.”

The context of why he’s saying it is understandable is that recently the leader of a very large and influential evangelical/baptist church called Steve Chalke has come out in favour of same-sex “marriage.”

This has caused great consternation amongst British evangelicals who looked up to him as having one of those “model” ministries.

I agree with you that the confusion should not be understandable at all for anybody who believes the Bible is the Word of God, but unfortunately when influential pastors like Chalke clothe their positions in apparently biblical principles it can do great damage to many people’s faith.

It’s “understandable” in the same way that abortion is “complicated”—only if you’re trying to have it both ways.
