I need very much help | Homosexual problems?
HELP ME PLEASE!
This is scaring me to the point where I can't even sleep, and I'm up all night crying and worrying, and praying for help!
When I was a child, I went to church all the time, prayed, read the Bible, and followed everything, including salvation!! I 100% believe the Bible, and that Jesus is my savior, and everything!
But the problems began when I turned 13, began experimenting with homosexuality (accidentally), and then I stopped going to church, did really bad homosexual things, started masturbating like crazy, skipped school, or would masturbate in the bathrooms at school, had perverted homosexual dreams about my TEACHERS, began to have disgusting thoughts (homosexual thoughts of my brother!), and my teenage years just went straight to HELL!!
I became depressed, skipped school a lot more, and then even threatened to dropout!
My friends all left me when they found out I was gay, and that may me want to turn to homosexuality more!
So then I got really angry at my parents, told them I hated them, and went on to live the most perverted and disgusting life I could live...
I frequently would pray about my situation, asking God to help me!
But then at the same time I spat on his name and would curse him for not helping me!
I frequently mocked other Christians for following such a warped religion that was so hateful towards homosexuals.
And even joked about God and the Bible being of falseness.
I turned into an idiot, and a blasphemer, and sadly, like most other people are now.
Then about 6 months ago, someone invited me to attend church with them. When I was there, I was enlightened to 1 Corinthians 6:9, and became frightened for my life! My entire outlook on life changed, and I repented to the point where I was up an entire night, crying, sobbing, pleading, and begging of forgiveness for every sin had I had done within the last 7 years. All the sins I could remember. All the little sins, the big sins, every sin I did!
I turned away from homosexuality, and returned home to seek help and comforting. I have since been free from all my homosexual and lustful sins for 6 months, and have gone on to live what I believe is the life God would want me to live! I have helped spread the word of God among the homosexual company that I once lived among, and have gotten several to follow God's word!
BUT THE PROBLEM IS!
I am afraid that I might be damned to eternal hellfire, because someone I shared all this information with, told me I was as depraved minded as the citizens of Sodom and Gomorrah, and that it is too late for me, for I have blasphemed God (the unforgivable sin)!!! And that the devil has taken full control of me, and is forcing me to live in delusion, thinking I will get eternity in Paradise, but I will be getting eternity in hell!
I am only 20 years old, and I do not have the fullest knowledge of all things Christian, so obviously I am confused.
PLEASE HELP ME BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!

Young man, I don't know who told you those awful things, but do not believe it. It sounds as if you have been tested by satan himself, but you have repented and returned to the Savior. There is no sin under God's grace that He cannot forgive. Jesus died for you, paid the sin debt, took your place. When you truly believe that he died, was buried & rose again, you are sealed. Nothing, can separate you from the love of God. God did all the saving and God does all the keeping.We can NEVER lose our salvation.We are saved and kept by God's grace. Stay strong in the faith young man, and may God bless your life.

I'm surprised with his life story. For me, homosexuality is no problem,but a sexual choice of each.
I do not understand why you ask help.If you are happy to abandon the practice of homosexuality, do not worry about the transcendent (God will condemn me, God will burn me in fire ..) I do not believe it.
I believe God is love is life, happiness ... did you know that the dwarf chimpanzee homosexuals?
Well, they were created by God (as the churches say, God created all animals right?), How can God condemn homosexuality, if he himself created animals that practice it?
Do not condemn, look viver.I'm not Christian, but I have studied the Bible and if it makes you calmer, read John 14:1 - not your heart be troubled ...
And watch out for depression, it is easy to enter and hard to leave.

Of course there are animals that eat their faeces and therefore we should not do the same thing and you know that. What to put in question, is that the ACT of homosexuality is a practice of some animals, these were created by "god", then how can God create something and hates him?
That does not exist and you also know that. No wonder that you often resulting in negative 8

It seems to me that maybe you are having trouble forgiving yourself. Just from what I have read it seems that maybe there were some anger issues, lack of self control maybe even sexual addiction. Having sexual thoughts about your brother is pretty out of what is usually considered "normal". But not unheard of...
Don't beat yourself up. There are a lot of people that deal with "strange" sexual thoughts and desires. If you have asked for forgiveness your God has forgiven you. You have not committed the unforgivable sin.
If you are still troubled you may want to seek some sex therapy. The person you told about your issues probably has NO idea what it's like to feel out of control sexually. Don't let them get you down. Forgive yourself. Trust that you are forgiven.

First off, relax. Even though the bible supposedly says some really nasty things about homosexuality, those passages don't mean what they seem to mean. Sodom and Gomorra weren't destroyed for being overtly gay; they were destroyed because the residents were unfriendly towards their guests. A lot of the other old testament mandates about being gay referred to rape or otherwise violent activity, never consenting homosexual acts. The new testament references are about people who are born straight giving up their straight desires and performing homosexual acts, or are about pagan temple attendants who had gay orgies, or about guys who dressed up as female prostitutes. NEVER does Jesus or anyone else ever condemn consenting homosexual relationships based around love. And besides, the biblical god is a god of love right? He would never condemn people for loving each other. You gotta remember also, the bible was written like 2000-3000 years ago. Times have changed and science has demonstrated that homosexuality may be in part based on genes. We no longer consider killing our children an appropriate punishment for disobedience, right? It's there in the bible. ( Deuteronomy 21:18-21) In the end you can always change religions.

It's ok! You read the first part of 1 corinthians 6:9, but you didn't keep reading. Here's the first half:
9Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders 10nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
Here's what comes after:
11And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
All you have to do is ask God for his forgiveness for whatever wrong you've done. No matter how far you've gone, he'll forgive you. Hope that helps! :D

Um, wow.
When I was 13 I tried to "pray the gay away"
When I was 15 I said freck Christianity and accepted myself as homosexual
I am 10X happier now
If God makes you gay, and then burns you forever for it, do you really want to be with him?
But, you're gay, and there's nothing you can do about it. Have fun with your buttsecks
- Anonymous1 decade ago
You seriously think that when you die, your going to rot in hell for the rest of eternity, WTF??? There is NOTHING wrong with being gay, and what really amazes me is that you could get so scared from a BOOK. Sorry to hurt you, but I'm just telling you the truth.
Source(s): atheist that supports gay people - GregoryLv 71 decade ago
no it is never to late to repent and change which you say you have.
a depraved mind will cause a person not to change
they will not seek forgiveness and salvation from god.
god says all blasphemies are forgiven of men but that to the holy spirit
Mar 3:28 Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme:
Mar 3:29 But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation:
blaspheme against the holy spirit is to reject its call to repent of sin and turn to god for salvation.
the bible says
those who reject jesus for salvation and refuse to believe are condemn as sinners already
if we die and do not do as god has said we have blasphemed the holy spirits call to repent and turn from sin.
since you have repented and turned to god for salvation you are saved
Joh 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
1Jo 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Ok sweetheart. Stop with the histrionics already. There are many paths that lead to God. One does not have to choose the fundamentalists, literalists route, if you do not want to. Search for churches and spiritual centers that affirm who you are as a spiritual being, created by God perfecctly. For instance, you might want to investigate the MCC church. (Metropolitan Community Church). It was created by a gay man, when he was unable to find a life affirming church to worship in. There are also other churches and spiritual centers who teaches life affirming spiritual principles from a more liberal Christian point of view, such as the Unity church. And there are churches and centers that teach these same life affirming spiritual principles from a non-Christian, non-theistic point of view. There are many valid choices you could choose from, if you wish. You do not have to stay conformed to the old life destroying theologies of the past.
Good luck to you, and God bless!
Peace and Namaste!
