If God hates homosexuality, would someone be born homosexual?

Answered by · · 9 Comments

God doesn’t hate homosexuality; he hates homosexual acts, just as he hates illicit heterosexual acts. Note that the Bible never speaks of homosexual orientation; it condemns only homosexual acts.

      Note that people are born with the desire to perform many other acts that God also says that he hates. So the real question is, why are we born sinful?

      People are not born with homosexual desires. They are like any other sin that some humans choose to give in too, and get addicted too. However, just as God can set people free from any other sin He can set homosexuals free. Why do Christians choose to believe humans when they say that people are born homosexuals over what the Bible says? Do they trust human desires, emotions, etc. more than what God is saying in His Word?

        You clearly have never met an 8-year-old boy with a feminine lisp and homosexual tendencies and desires. Jesus, himiself, speaks of this in people who have made themselves eunuchs. Nowhere in the bible does it say that people are not born homosexual, and nowhere in the bible does it say that God hates homosexuals, he hates the sin, not the person, just as we should.

          I suppose you also believe there is a “gay gene” that’s been discovered? You need to do some research instead of just blindly believing what the media tells you. No scientist anywhere at any time has said there is a “gay gene”. People are not born homosexual. In fact, most evidence from research done shows that environmental factors are definitely involved. This means that it is a learned BEHAVIOUR not a genetic pre-disposition. Behaviour can be altered and in fact there is evidence that homosexual behaviour can be successfully treated and these people have shown 100% change in sexual orientation. Don’t believe the media, the research speaks for itself.

      Adam is the reason were born into sin. Yes man thoughts are evil but unless a child that has no concept of life, death heaven hell, Jesus, Blood shed for remission of sins, etc.. Then that child if cannot have the capability to mentally understand then they will not go to Hell but if they are old enough to understand those things then they become accountable as we all do. We all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. God hates a adultery to and besides from being unnatural its the same to him as adultery.

        In case it seemed I said people were born homosexual I did not they are not a child could also not cheat on someone or be married or understand any of that so therefore they are not born into that. But the scripture does say were into sin by the sin curse brought from when Adam and eve sinned and took the fruit. Sin brings death, sin is a curse which is why we see babies born with defects and that they die and cancers and many other things. But such as Homosexuality, adultery, whores, whoremongers, Liars, deceivers, etc.. are choise we make the Bible says anything not of faith is Sin.

          But mainly our job as Christians is to show people the hope that was in world which we all our guilty of Him being on the cross. We are to show his Love, unconditional not loving sin and saying truth but mostly to show his love. Jesus said you can hang all the law and prophets on this that you Love the Lord thy God with all thy heart soul and mind, and Love thy neighbor as thyself. Love is Jesus to give your whole self sacrifice everything for even some one who doesn’t deserve it. I deserve I was just as awful any sinner and Jesus saved me I still fall short but the Blood of Jesus cleans all sins.

      The brain and the body have been tormented by sin. Do we not see this with other birth defects? None of us have perfect bodies. It would be highly possible for a person to be born with a bodies that is twisted toward sinful temptations. Alcoholism can also be traced to genetics.

      Regardless God desires us to not give into the sins of the world.
