To: Only Sane Man

My son is a homosexual.
My Bible describes all kinds of sins, homosexuality is listed along with covetors, drunkards,swindlers, etc.
Here’s the good part:
“And such were some of you; but you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the
Lord Jesus Christ, and in the Spirit of our God.”
Only if you are honest and call sin, sin, is there a cure, and that cure is in the saving work of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Depending on the opinions of men, “the experts”, only leads to deception and hopelessness.
“Surely, says the Lord, even the captives of the mighty will be taken away, and the prey of the tyrant will be rescued; for I will contend with the one that contends with you, AND I WILL SAVE YOUR SONS, and all flesh will know that I, the Lord, am your savior and your redeemer, the mighty one of Jacob.”
Never stop praying.

I believe one can hate the sin but not the sinner.

Most conservatives could care less what consenting adults do in the privacy of their home.

What many of us have a problem with is the concept of putting a homosexual relationship on a culturally equal footing, both societally and politically, with heterosexual relationships.

I don’t have children, but I fully recognize that the benefits that a government may render for the purpose of supporting a family-based society are ostensibly there to promote that structure, and should not be extended to homosexual relationships.

Liberals, of course, have different ideas about the family unit. It is not a surprise that the vast majority of homosexuals are liberals.

Amen to that with man it may not be possible, but with God all things are possible. You bring up a good point. To God all of our sins are equal in sinfulness, but He can save from any sin if we just turn to Him in repentance.

Maybe people can't change, but they can be changed.

Re 24

Prayers for your son. We are all sinners, saved only by Grace. May the Good Lord work His miraculous work.

2 Corinthians 5:17
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

Thanks, WestwardHo. Your previous stories about your son were heart-wrenching, and your anguish has been felt by many here who are familiar with you and your excellent posts. I’d say that your admonition is worth more than all the others posting here combined.

Never stop praying is excellent advice.
