Bible Question: What does the New Testment say about being Gay or Lesbian? I want to know for my son. |
Bible Answer: I will only go by what the Bible says, so that I do not preach a false doctrine. Hebrews 4:15 says that we have One (meaning Jesus) who was tempted in all ways as we are, yet is without sin. This verse when taken literally mean that 1: Jesus was tempted in all ways including sexual temptation like your son. 2: It is not a sin to be tempted. 1 Corinthians 10:13 backs me up on this when Paul says that we will not be tempted beyond what we are able, and that we will find a way of escape. That was the good news. Now I will give you the bad news. 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 makes it clear that unrepentant homosexuals who act on their temptations will not see the kingdom of God. If your son does not act on his temptations, and he has repented of all of his sins and accepted Jesus as his Friend, God, Lord, and Savior, he is safe. God bless. |
