Bible Question: with scientific evidence now pointing that we can't help being born 'GAY' do you feel homosexuality is wrong?if God knew us,even in our mothers womb why would he 'make' us that way? |
Bible Answer: Hello believer53, Welcome to the Forum! God did not "make" us homosexual any more than he "makes" us murderers, pedophiles, arsonists etc. It's called original sin. Psalm 51:5 states," Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, And in sin my mother conceived me." (NASB) Whether or not one "feels homosexuality is wrong" matters little. It entirely falls upon "what sayeth the scripture?". Gods Word condems homosexuality- "For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error. And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper," (Rom. 1:26-28 NASB) Remember, according to His Word, "Professing to be wise, they became fools" (Rom. 1:21), "Where is the wise man? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world?" ( 1 Cor. 1:20). Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
