What do I say when my friends ask me about:
Homosexuality?
17 June 2007
Summary of Bible Revelation on Homosexuality
1. God's Intended Order (Our Identity) -we are created male & female
2. Fallenness of man causes our perversion (our desires)
3. Homosexual act is a sin
4. Homosexuality is not a greater sin (compared to lust, anger, pride, etc...)
The struggles of a homosexual and our response
Stigma + difficulty in change, leading to secrecy
Since secrecy is the biggest stuggle, the need will then be acceptance and openness -- to love the sinner, but not the sin
