[@seekerhonest]

Homosexuals are not sick. Homosexuality is a healthy natural sexual orientation with an evolutionary meaning. If it was caused by psychological influences, it could be changed to heterosexual in a therapy, but it cant. Thats what we know for sure. So its innate. Why did it come up in evolution? There is a permanent share of 90-96% heterosexuals and 4-10% share of homosexuals in all living beings with sexuality since 385 million years. The reason is the evolutionary advance through several factors, for example: Same-sex sexuality evolved by natural selection because it created or strengthened male-male alliances and female-female alliances and mutual social benefit to all the animals in the tribe, better survive better defense, better social interaction. There are interesting studies about it.

I wasn't influenced nor was I converted.

[@Truth_teller724]

@@t_harry312 they've done studies and research on it and there's no evidence to prove that people are born gay or that gay and straight men have different genes or neurological constructs that shape desires. most homosexuals become that way due to past experiences of molestation, s3xual abuse, or early exposure to porn (this can all be backed up by studies). all in all, God loves everyone, and it is in His will that no man should perish, but all come to repentance.

Awe man. I needed to hear this. I felt like straight tugged in my spirit when hearing this. I was dealing with same sex attraction ever since I was small & its a testimony that I need stated @ it’s given time. But man I truly identified, with being bi/gay. I had relations with 50+ people @ the age of 19. Earlier in the weeks, I was in the ER after I could no longer tolerate bowel pain after falling into sin, days earlier when I was meant to go to a missions trip. And God’s so loving & compassionate to not let me go to that trip so when I go I can truly save souls, not suffer the pain I was going through if I were going to go. And that same thing our brother brought up, is the world tells us to experience if you like it, and I did it by trial & error. Until I ended up liking it but I was diagnosed with Herpes & Syphillis but even in that ER before church because I had to play that same day. I thank God for being there with me & God let’s us suffer our own consequences, God is not mocked. Pray for my soul, my being because even after being treated, its habits in me that pleasure feels good that I keep doing it , when I what makes me feel whole & clean is living in the spirit with God :)

Well said Rashad: “There’s no such thing as a gay Christian.”

[@GilbertGTV]

Yes, there is. Being Christian is a choice. Being gay is not. If you pit the two of them against each other, you will always push the gay person away from God. The Bible does not condemn homosexuality in its original language. The anti gay stuff entered the Bible in 1946.

This isn't just homosexuality, but its included.

this obsession that christian’s have to speak on the LGBTQ+ community is highly concerning. they talk about gay people more than gay people talk about themselves. at some point, you gotta look within and really figure out why you care so much about someone else’s sexuality unless you’re trying to overcompensate for something in yourself that you’re ashamed of.

[@whitneymorrisphotography9292]

and funny enough, there’s a fair amount of “ex-gay” people that feel the need to talk about the LGBTQ+ community all the time. definitely sensing some internalized homophobia. I just wonder how they would identify if they weren’t told that being gay was wrong?

[@Ava-xs6ni]

It is not an obsession but a worry people in this work are overcome but popular ideas and new ways and they latch on to the most interesting and progressive idea of the time and they push that as a wonderful positive thing when it is inherently wrong and against nature as though we can have desire or a want to do something to doesn’t mean it’s coming from a good place or a place of correct judgement

Yesss Jesus!! Before I came to Christ I struggled with homosexuality, transgenderism, and witchcraft. But my mother was steady and firm in Christ and at the time I had no idea how right she was. She would tell us about Sodom and Gomorrah and how homosexuality is an evil demonic thing. I used to think she was cruel and homophobic and how dare she not love her kid for who they (very mistakenly thought they) were. But oh God is good. My mother’s faith is what led me back to Christ Jesus. How right she was! My eyes have been opened to the rampant evil the enemy is trying to pollute our children with. There is no compromise for a Christian. You can’t be gay and a Christian, trust me, I thought you could. All glory be to God Most High. Jesus loves you all and wants to deliver you.

They doth protest too much, methinks It seems to me like you are both bisexual (or gay) but choosing to not act on the male attraction part of your sexuality. And you’re using religion to justify why you need to downplay that part of yourself. Which is fine it’s your life. But you speak as if “being homosexual” is itself a sin, but sin implies choice. Sexuality isn’t a choice… ask any straight man if he chooses to be attracted only to women and he will say it’s who he is. Same for bisexual/gay. Sure, you can choose to not act on feelings you have towards the same sex, but you can’t choose whether you have those feelings in the first place. If you accept this then being gay isn’t a sin, maybe having gay sex is, but being same sex attracted isn’t. It seems like the most enlightened position for someone to be in, in this case, is to admit openly that they are bisexual/gay while at the same time admit they refrain from acting on those feelings. It’s enlightened because you are choosing against a sinful action despite wanting to do the action. And if you lie and pretend like you don’t have those feelings in the first place, isn’t that itself a sin?

[@alejandrolopez9409]

Hey! God does love all of us, but there should be a clear distinction on whether you have made sexuality your identity… when we introduce ourselves we dont say hi “I am a heterosexual, or I am gay” if we make sexuality our identity, then everything around it, problems, relationships revolve around the fact that you think or somebody else thinks that sexuality is their identity when in reality, all of us are more than our sexuality. Hope it makes sense, we shouldnt use Gods love in any way to justify our sinful nature, and that goes for us all. Have a blessed day.

Romans 1:18-24 "For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Claiming to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator"

It is the kindness of God that leads us to repentance. We must preach repentance - in 2008, I was a gay-identified man, in a committed, monogamous same-sex relationship, active in an affirming church, then found myself in an ICU where the medical team classified me clinically dead after a 22-minute flatline. I experienced death, judgement and hell. When I couldn’t take any more demonic torment, I cried out in repentance, “Jesus!” and I heard the Savior say, “I am here.” At that moment, I saw with my eyes the Wind of the Holy Spirit fill my ICU and with great power, He pick up Satan and the demonic and blew them out of the room. On that day, my life changed, the redemptive Blood of Jesus cleared my mind, and completely healed and restored every failing organ. Glory to God!

You can be saved as a homosexual, you may never find attraction in the opposite sex as long as you live but it’s the homosexual lifestyle that you need to repent from.

Videos like this can fuel intense hatred toward the LGBTQ+ community, pushing individuals to suppress their true identities. When people are made to feel that their natural feelings are wrong, it can lead to deep self-loathing and a sense of isolation. This internal struggle can become so overwhelming that some may even feel that the only way to escape the pain is by taking their own lives. The harmful impact of such content is devastating, reinforcing a cycle of shame and despair that can have tragic consequences.

[@sophiasmith6363]

Bruh he’s speaking his truth and literally his own story, both their stories actually. You can’t speak for everyone man, and regardless what you want to call it it’s Gods truth. They are not spreading hate at all, and no Christian should hate but we’re not gonna water down the truth either. I also Identified as part of the community before but I no longer do because of my conviction and love for my God over my own wants and I really enjoyed their video, no hate here

Absolutely ~ I find it disheartening how conforming to the prejudices of the Bible has dimmed his light. We are all fragments of the same source. To be your authentic self is to be aligned with your highest potential. I dislike how they are using him as a token Saved Christian to attack the sexual minority.

[@olivianofen7439]

That is not his true self. He explained that he knew what he was doing was wrong, its because of his exposure to pornography and sexuality at such a young age that he acted the way he did. It was not of God and he goes on to say that, the Bible explains why homosexuality is a sin Leviticus 20:13, but Jesus can save , he died for us to save us from our sin and our sinful desires so we may have eternity with Him.

Homosexuality is a healthy natural sexual orientation with an evolutionary meaning. If it was caused by psychological influences, it could be changed to heterosexual in a therapy, but it cant. Thats what we know for sure. So its innate. Why did it come up in evolution? There is a permanent share of 90-96% heterosexuals and 4-10% share of homosexuals in all living beings with sexuality since 385 million years. The reason is the evolutionary advance through several factors, for example: Same-sex sexuality evolved by natural selection because it created or strengthened male-male alliances and female-female alliances and mutual social benefit to all the animals in the tribe, better survive better defense, better social interaction. There are interesting studies about it. I wish for you that you find a loving same-sex partner, marry and maybne raise kids in responsibility.

There's nothing 'not normal' about being gay. Your churches can teach people to hate themselves all they want to, but people are waking up. Religious bigotry is still bigotry. End of.

[@oliviaanderson6861]

Hi Carew. I almost never comment on KZbin channels, but felt it placed on my heart to encourage you & Rashad on the Kingdom work you are a part of. My best friend is a gay man, and is *SOOO* close to a relationship with Jesus. I love him dearly, as close as I would a brother, and we often talk about God, Jesus, and our belief systems. My best friend displays a love (service) that is generous and giving to so many, and he is sensitive to others and works doubly hard to make someone feel “seen”. Without having a personal relationship with Jesus he is about as close as it gets!!! I pray my best friend will have a supernatural encounter with our Lord that will radically change his vision so he can see the plan our God has on his life: to have a relationship with him. I pray over you and Rashad to continue your work and reflect how God redeems our brokenness, trading ashes for beauty, because it gives so many people the chance to hope… which I consider to be key to our individual walks with Jesus in addition to faith. Bless you. Olivia

Here's the conclusion 13 minutes in: - The guest is most likely a confused individual that became confused on his gender and sexuality at a young age. This is different from an individual who was born same-sex attracted or started off with gender dysphoria. Therefore, this guest is not a good representation of genuine LGBTQ+ struggles. - I'm amazed that the guest is still currently confused between gender and sexuality. First he says he feels like doing things a girl does, then he somehow conflates this with drag queen, gay culture, gay porn, and what not. Then suddenly it becames a bisexual issue where he is attracted to both genders. This just shows confusion because the person was exposed to such concepts and indoctrinated, not that he was struggling with these issues intrinsically. - The guest seems to lack a complete understanding of what it means to be an LGBTQ+ Christian. If you are same-sex attracted, then you simply are. If you are able to find it within yourself to date the opposite gender, then you are not SSA, at best you are bisexual. Next, suppressing your attractions is not the answer, and having attractions have no standing nor intersections between your identity in Christ. Storms in life continue, and you find rest and solace and assurance that things will be alright in Christ. - The host seems to have predetermined ideas on what homosexuality is and asks questions to reinforce this view. If you are reading this, I recommend not having an echo chamber to reinforce your own viewpoints. It makes everything meaningless especially if you are genuine in reaching out to the LGBTQ+ community. Find people who ACTUALLY struggle with this issue from the start (not confused individuals influenced/indoctrinated by culture) and learn how they settle in with their identity. Nonetheless, the guest's story is one that deserves empathy for being confused by culture. Glad that he is able to find clarity in his identity and finding Christ in the meanwhile, but it needs to be noted that his story does not appear as the conventional LGBTQ person's testimony. Not everyone is culture confused, many of us just have it from the start (i.e. whichever age one begin's exploring their "type" or "identity" etc).

Thank you for this, honestly I've been seeing this mans testimony everywhere and for the longest time something hasn't been sitting well with he's testimony. There's parts of it that feels off❤️

[@ScoobyandShaggy5554]

The enemy caused confusion no matter how it’s brought upon. Being gay and living that lifestyle is a confused answer to a problem in your life. So he got it from a show and porn, others get it from rape, lack of male or female figures, bad environment, word curses etc… the point is the spirit of homosexuality is that of a Spirit, that finds people and wants them to feed off of it. Nothing but perversion and lust in every homosexual individual. It’s rooted in that

First, I would like to say this conversation was very interesting to watch and listen to. I think its a very good thing to hear others opinions, or truths so to speak. Second I'd like to add that it is perfectly okay to walk with and worship Jesus while being Gay, I know this to be true because I have been in somewhat these same shoes. God welcomes all his children and their imperfections. We are all human beings trying are best to Love God just as much as he loves us. and when the day of rapture comes he will strip us all of our fleshly wounds and desires and we will become the true image of him. Amen. I will be praying for you both fellas.

I will definitely have to agree with you. The Bible is a translation by man, we truly don't know what God will have to say about being gay and being a Christian. Love is love regardless of whom it is, I feel that you can be a Christian and be gay. I'm really Suprised people are bringing down people who are gay. Like they belive in God, they belive in his teaching, they just love some one of the same sex. If live your life and just be real about things and give him all the glory respect that he gave his only sin, to be tortured ridiculed and killed just for his beliefs So here in this podcast you both basically state the because you are gay you can't be a Christian. I disagree whith both of you on this matter. It is not or place to judge. Upon the final days we will be judged and there he will judge us, it's not man's place to judge or make statements such as this. It's not factual
