One has to be careful to not conflate “being a homosexual” with “experiencing a certain profile of temptation.” Some miraculously find themselves temptation free, others have a more difficult row to hoe. To call the latter non believers of necessity, is an untruth and an insult to God.

True, however, don't confuse a born-again ex-homosexual, free from his sin, with a "monogomous" or inactive Homosexual.
As posted earlier in this thread, it is not the action that makes a sin objectionable to God, but the desire itself.
Temptation is not the desire to sin, but as merriam-webster states:
Tempt:
1 : to entice to do wrong by promise of pleasure or gain
Those homosexuals still suffering from the evil, ugly desire that is the hallmark of that condition, are not saved and are not living in the Grace of God. They are still unregenerated sinners in need of forgiveness and salvation.
