From what I’ve seen and figured, sexual temptation towards homosexuality is not really any different in nature than any sexual temptation.

What about the man who is tempted to be in serial relationships with various women at various stages of seduction?

I know a pastor who admitted he struggled with that tendency, but has remained faithfully married to his beautiful wife. He said he has great compassion for those whose struggle is with homosexual tendencies instead.

Each of us has our own weaknesses and areas of temptation that we struggle with. It’s a matter of not letting our area of weakness, the temptation we struggle with, become our identity.

I agree, all have sexual temptations. However, homosexual temptation is unatural and more fraught with greater negative emotional and physical effects.

That is what I was going to say - sexual temptations are sexual temptations, unless homosexual sexual temptation is linked strictly to Satan.
