- This video is solely about my experience. Our walk with The LORD is not a "one size fits all." Rather I felt led to share how God had worked in my life in hopes that it will help somebody else who might be going through the same thing. God bless!

I'm in my 60's now. I can't tell you how many times I've cried and asked God to make me normal. I been hurt and made fun of by family, friends and people of faith all my life. I'm lonely but I've never been alone because God has walked with me through every joy and every struggle I've had. Jesus would have died just for me! What matters is what God thinks of me! God will never forsake us or leave us. Don't ever give up on YOU.
I'm so sorry to hear you've been hurt, but I am so glad to hear that God has been a source of comfort for you during those times. God bless you Heath!
God bless both of you. Praying for you from Argentina ❤ may Jesus bless you forever ♾️
Seek Deliverance. Try Isaiah Saldivar's Deliverance map.
I've read a few of these comments, and wow. I've never struggled with homosexuality, but I have struggled with lust, pornography, and sex outside (before) marriage, among a number of other things. This is truly inspiring to see you all seek to honor the Lord instead of the flesh. It reminds me to be pure and walk in holiness by the Spirit. God bless you.
God bless!
This is a bad testimony.
Let me ask you? Do you really believe lust and porn are the same as a gay couple in loving and committed monogamous marriage?
Bro im gay and i dont even know this
Im going to become celibate because i dont know. I need to find out from god because there is a path forward for us
But maybe it isn't in flesh man. @@inYTbio_SiteLINKs2Verses_Bruv
@@inYTbio_SiteLINKs2Verses_Bruv Amen! Lust and porn can indeed be dehumanizing (cf. "If your eye is leading you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away!), but God gave us sex as a good gift of creation, to be freely enjoyed in mutual service, honor and joy, with a clear conscience and clean hands.
@@inYTbio_SiteLINKs2Verses_Bruvyes. Any form of sexy immorality is wrong
Man I’ve been so alone in this! Glad to finally find someone who is like me. I don’t want to live the homosexual lifestyle, I know it leads to destruction. But sometimes I feel so lonely. I wish I had friends like you so we can fight this together for the glory of God!
I am genuinely so sorry you have been so severely brainwashed by the cult! I want to promise you that there is nothing more beautiful than queer love. I have been where you are - self-loathing, insecure, guilty, riddled with the brainwashing of the church that told me there is something wrong with such a massive and inherent part of my idenity that I cannot change. Well guess what - the church is wrong. Think about it critically for 5 seconds. Why do you want to live a life that is anti-love? You really want to stand in opposition to queer LOVE, one of the purest, most beautiful, most joyous things on earth?! If you accept yourself and learn to love yourself, you can live IN LOVE, always. Please stop hating yourself. Please stop trying to change yourself. There is nothing wrong with who you are. Nothing. There is nothing wrong with who you love. Your love is not sinful. Your love is not wrong. Your love will not cause destruction. Queer love can change the world. It can spread happiness, empathy, love, compassion, kindness, inspiration, support, and so much more. Please accept yourself the way you are. Being queer is to embody joy and love. Let yourself feel that joy and love. It is waiting for you.
I totally understand what you mean. It definitely helps to have community. Don't ever hesitate to reach out! God bless!
Hang in there. I'm in this with you.! I deal with the same thing. obedience will always cost us something.
You're not alone. I decided to follow Jesus 13 years ago despite the same sex attraction.
Well, I’m not doing good because I have a boyfriend now. I’m scared I’m going to hell but I love him so much
I relate so much to this. Your story of faith in God is truly inspiring. When I sought solace with straight Christian friends, they didn't really understand what I was going through so couldn't help, and when I asked my gay friends, they thought I was insane for denying what they consider a core part of their identity. It can certainly feel like a lonely road at times, and you will question if you should just turn around and follow the crowd, but when I am in doubt I find solace in this verse:
"The highway to hell is broad, and its gate is wide for the many who choose that way. But the gateway to life is very narrow and the road is difficult, and only a few ever find it." - Matthew 7:13-14
Thank you so much :) God bless!
“I am the Lord Thy God” and “thou shalt have *no Gods before Me* “ are commandments, not suggestions.
I'm not same sex attracted, but lust has been something I have struggled with at times. Hang in there - you're not alone and the Lord loves you so much He saved you! God bless you!
don't i know this reality....
@@matthewa11 Maybe try reading the New Testament for a change. Gal 3:28: "There is no male or female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus." Even the Old Law repeals the prohibition on eunuchs. Compare Deut 23:1 with Isai 56:1-8. God's grace is greater!
I relate to this so much. The exact same thing happened to me when I got out of my last homosexual relationship. I had this moment as you talked about and I knew it was God telling me that he wanted a different path for me. I did marry a man, but I am still struggling with my attraction to women. I recently befriended a girl and fell very hard very quickly. I am praying for God to give me strength and to help me get back on the path he intended for me. Not enough people are talking about this and honestly Christian’s who do not struggle with this themselves do not understand. They actually think it is a choice and have no empathy for how hard it is to have homosexual tendencies. Thank you for making this video.
Thanks for sharing that Katie. It definitely is a struggle that is unfortunately misunderstood by so many. Just remember that there are people out here who get it and understand. God bless!
@@christianconvos I think homosexuality is a demonic attack and dekiverance and renewing the mind would help. I dont think God sentences anyone to a life of singleness. He says ALL things are possible to those who will believe. Please believe God for deliverance and talk to him about it.
I so admire your bravery and candor in sharing this. It's encouraging to know that there are others that share similar struggles and yet have found rest in knowing that God's grace is sufficient. God bless bro🙏🏿.
Thank you so much Melly! God bless you bro!
Well put my friend god bless
how is not being how God created someone to be a good thing?
but homophobia is a sin @@Exposingyou
God's grace is not a free ticket to sin or to continue to sin but to stop it. When you repent means to forsake your sins and promise Him never again to repeat them. It is a complete change of mind.
I'm a 19yo female and I just broke up with my gf of 2 years a day ago bc my life has been really really hectic lately and God has been showing me signs of what I need to do and leaving her was one of them and not just bc she was my sin but bc she was sm more than just a woman I was in love with. She doesn't believe in God and for awhile, its not something we ever discussed so i didnt know she didn't believe in him until my relationship started getting serious with him and all of a sudden, anything said abt God, made her angry. One day I told her id pray for her bc of something she was going through and she got angry n said she didn't need God n God couldn't help her. She even said she hopes I go to hell so yeah i had to leave her and now im like, what now? I'm not attracted to men, I have not been for as far back as I can remember, since I ever crushed on someone, its always been women. I ask God will I be alone forever bc of this? even though its my dream to get married and have a family.
God will send you your true person. God’s timing is always perfect. Hold onto your faith and pray ❤️
Praying you find a life you can thrive in. It was definitely a good thing to break up with someone who tries to pull you away from God or doesn't share your faith. As for the future, I would just say the only thing you can do is bring your feelings and fears to God and ask him to show you a way forward. Tell him you don't know if you can be alone forever and ask him to provide for you in that area. Tell him you love him and want to live for him but alongside it all the fears and confusion. He will take care of you.
Sister, just focus on Jesus and letting the Word renew your mind. He will lead you. I listened to this guy's story at my church once and it's amazing. He said that God didn't expect him to turn heterosexual; He was interested in him being holy. It was so good and so profound. The man turned away from homosexuality but did not pursue heterosexuality either (he's now celibate). There's much more to the story but the book is called Out of a Far Country: A Gay Son's Journey to God. A Broken Mother's Search for Hope by Christoher Yuan and his mother Angela Yuan
Thanks so much, brother, for such an excellent video! I can only imagine your video will help many and God will use it to encourage others in their journey. And yes, we need each other as it gives strength for the (at times long, lonely and misunderstood) road we travel. Psalm 23 is a source of comfort that my Heavenly Father is my shepherd who gently leads beside still waters and lets me lie in green pastures.
I thank the Lord for you, brother and your life and testimony.
Thank you so much brother for your constant encouragement, God bless!
Isaiah 56:1-8 is written for "eunuchs" (i.e. men who have lost their manhood). That's the word of comfort that God gave gay and trans people (as they would be known today) in Scripture. Mat 19:12 and Gal 3:28 confirm it. The Shepherd can lead you to more plentiful pastures than celibacy, but it requires the faith to reject human teachings.
Hey man for the the video ! As a guy who has physical attractions towards other man and wants to be in a relationship with one, I do believe there’s no greater relationship but the relationship with god. I spend time studying the word and it brings me closer to him:
No the greater relationship would be to be with someone you love no matter there sex! lol
Then Judaism is for you.
@@cameronempey8350 God loves you, when you begin a relationship with God , He will reveal himself to you. There is no greater love than Love in its ultimate form, God. It takes humility to ask Jesus "if you are real, reveal yourself to me" you might begin to notice that doing this or even the thought of asking Jesus to reveal himself will be the moat difficult thing to ever do.. we do not battlw against flesh and blood its all spirtual
being born LGBT is not wrong though
Thank you so much for sharing your story! I too struggle big time with my sexuality. I just prayed to god for help and then this video came my way. I cannot thank you and the lord enough for this. Please know that your video helps many of us and I'll add it to my favorites just in case I need a little reminder.
Greetings from the Netherlands and may God bless you
So glad to hear that the video helped, Robbert! Thank you so much for your encouragement as well. God bless you brother!
Your sexuality will never change. It is genitically determined before you're even born. The good news? Being queer is a BEAUTIFUL, JOYOUS thing. It means you are unique, you are bold, you are brave, and you belong to a community of kind, loving, compassionate, empathetic people who understand your desires. It's time to stop hating yourself. Stop denying your true self. Stop hurting yourself. Look into your heart and get to know your true self. Embrace your identity. Be yourself. Be out, loud, and proud. Be love
@@imjustcookingpizza9354Praying for you.
why not just be how God made u?
@@imjustcookingpizza9354 How can God create you that way if, in the end, He will send you to hell? It does not make any sense. If you are a homosexual you can be a former homosexual if you draw near to God and repent with a broken spirit and godly sorrow and a contrite heart God will draw near to you. Pay attention to verse 11 in 1 Corinthians.
1 Corinthians 6:9-11 Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.
You @imjustcookingpizza9354 are a child of the devil. You do not love homosexuals you hate them so much that you do not care if they go to hell for not telling them the truth. You are going to hell for it and for having blood on your hands and being lukewarm that God will vomit you out of His mouth on your day of judgment. Repent sinner or you will likewise perish. My homosexual friends do not listen to this child of the devil he wants you to go to hell. Rebuke him severely.
such a good lad, very well put together video! Keep up the amazing heart felt content!
Amen and amen!
Thanks so much Randolph! God bless!
Thanks for sharing bro. Keep the faith. I have a similar struggle and it's helpful to hear your testimony. God bless you.
So glad it could help, God bless you Adam!
I'm so sorry you've been brainwashed to believe your love is sinful. it is not. queer love is beautiful, joyous, and powerful. stop hating yourself and start being yourself.
Stop using the language of the oppressor classes. Q--r is a slur. Say Gay or say nothing.
God bless you and your walk brother.
“O Lord, who may abide in Your tent? Who may dwell on Your holy hill? He who walks with integrity, and works righteousness, And speaks truth in his heart.”
Psalms 15:1-2
if only he knew God created him LGBT
@@pastorbri Wrong lying child of the devil words coming out of your mouth from the pit of hell of your father Satan. If He created them that way then explain to me why is He going to send them to hell?
Say Gay or say nothing.
Thank you for explaining about repentance, and salvation. I've missed your videos! So glad to see this.
Thank you for sharing. Hearing someone else's first hand experience is very valuable. It's difficult having this conversation with Christians. They either lack understanding or empathy.
Thank you so much brother, and I completely agree! God bless!
@@christianconvos would you mind sharing your experience with regard to advice on dealing with loneliness and living a celibate lifestyle.
I'm in my twenties but have found Christ really early in life. As a result, I do wonder about possible opportunities that I have missed or relationships I could have pursued. I do occasionally mourn the life and "version" of myself I would have been. It's surprising how much influence something as simple as sexuality can have on one's life.
I fully accept the sacrifices I have made, to live a life inspired by Christ. I would just like to know your take on navigating life in singleness.
@@Jeremy-wp4yh Hi Jeremy! I would be happy to make a video talking about this. I completely understand what you mean. You can also feel free to email me as well if you ever have any other questions. God bless!
@@Jeremy-wp4yh I couldn't do it. I was a committed, born-again Christian for 30 years, but forcing myself to stay celibate and try to be straight slowly destroyed my whole life. God does NOT give everyone the gift of celibacy. I've decided to act in faith, hope and love, and trust that God's grace will be sufficient for me, for Her power is made perfect in weakness. And now I'm not torturing my male parts and drinking myself to death any more, praise the Lord!
@@ChristianCatboy Most people ultimately leave Christianity because they want the truth to conform to their lives, rather than conform their lives to the truth.
Following Christ is about self-sacrifice. The sacrifice in question is the flesh.
You are very brave. Thank you for sharing so that you can help others. May God bless you always and merry Christmas.
Thank you so much for that encouragement, Eve. God bless!
Thank you so much for speaking up about this!!! It's so true, usually advice and videos on this are so extreme on either repentance of homosexuality or complete acceptance of actively living that lifestyle. I relate to so much of your story and what you shared and I've never really met any other Christians struggling with the same thing, so this was so so encouraging and helpful! Thank you so much and thank God for showing me this video. ❤
God bless! :)
So happy you discovered the truth, what you said is the truth, my prayer is that God use you to help so many others, you will be that light that he will use, bless you my friend.
Thank you so much Melinda! God bless! :)
Thank you brother for sharing your life and journey with us. What a faithful servant you are . And what a witness you are to the world around you. Choosing a life of obedience to our Lord over your own desires. I can imagine him rejoicing with the angels in heaven when you overcame this temptation . I am praying brother that you will continue to grow in the knowledge of our Lord , with all spiritual wisdom and understanding that you may bear much fruit and bring him great joy.
That he will strenghten you my beloved .
"Those that honour me I will honour " says the Lord .
Thank you so much Laura, God bless! :)
"These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. They worship me in vain; their teachings are merely human rules."
Thank you for making this video. I’ve struggled with this for years and have never told anyone
You're definitely not alone Denny, hope the video helped! God bless!
Thank you sharing your testimony. It is greatly appreciated 😍❤️!
Thank you so much Saundra! God bless!
Thank you so much for sharing your story!!❤️
Yes!
Thank you so much Hayden! God bless!
Im proud to be able to call you a brother in Christ! You have seen your struggle and fleshly desires and have submitted yourself to god for you're convictions of the truth.
Being gay is nothing i have delt with but i did struggle with lustful attraction and premarital sex and that is not biblical either. But through the grace of God through Christ I am able to see the fault and address the issue.
I pray you be able to keep being a testimony to those that struggle in the same ways you do but also to the ones who have a hard time accepting the fact that you do struggle with this.
My lovely wife and i run a bible study over 2 peter 1 focuaing on verses 5-7 and how incorporation of those traits in our lives allows God to refine and sanctify us through time. I encourage you to read and study that and hope it blesses you as it has us.
Blessings Brother!
Hey! Gods helped me with the legalism, but I’m still struggling with it. I’ve fallen into the trap of thinking repentance contributes to my salvation, will you pray for me? I’m having a rough time having a grace based relationship. Thanks!
I’m praying for you to convert to Judaism and have a same-sex Jewish wedding.
We do need to repent, as in turn away from sin, but not sure what you are referring to. I felt the need to point out, in case this touches on what you are worried about, that there is a difference between feeling a temptation for something (being same-sex attracted or whatever it may be) vs. acting on it (which *would* be a sin). Others condemn people for experiencing the temptation, but it is not a sin to be tempted. It's only a sin when you act on it. I hope that helps you or at least someone else. We all have our own things we struggle with, sin, temptation, etc., so we shouldn't condemn others. ❤
If you are still relying on circumcision of the flesh (= outward repentance, marked by conformity to cultural norms), then you have "fallen away from grace", and "Christ will be no value to you at all." (cf. Galatians 5). Jesus fulfilled the Law! "It is for freedom that Christ set us free, so do NOT submit again to a yoke of slavery!"
Thank you, and may God continue to bless you!!!
Trying to rationalize self-hatred and hiding behind God to do it is the opposite of a blessing.
I used to struggle with homosexuality as an evangelical in the 1980s. I was about your age. Fast forward to today at the ripe age of 57 and Im now in a civil partnership of some years. I had one or two profound experiences with God during the 1980s that convinced me that God cannot be boxed into, or limited to Christian doctrines. Spiritually, for me at least, Homosexuality has been a hard gift. I've learnt so much. I genuinely wish you the best on your journey. God bless you ❤❤
God bless you and your husband.
Hello David, thank you so much for sharing that and for your kind words, God bless!
Thank you for this I actually started questioning my sexuality a while ago and I've never really gotten over it
So glad it helped you Caiden! God bless!
Hey, you. Yeah, you. I love you.
Words can't express how wonderfully happy this video makes me to hear and see.
Thank you so much! God bless!
ThankQ for sharing your Testimony. May GOD Bless You, Keep You, Cause His Face To Shine On You. May He Be Gracious To You and Give You Peace💙 Amen 🙏🏽
Thank you so much for those encouraging words, Marcus! God bless!
Hello brother! Keep speaking truth! This video is a blessing to many.
I would just like to ask what do you mean at 8:24 (about repentance)? Maybe it wasn't just clear for me. Thank you!
Hey brother! In that part I am referring to people who say you must repent of sins in order to be saved. I believe repenting of sins is something we should do after we are saved, however, it does not get us saved, nor does it keep us saved. Hope this clears things up! God bless!
@@christianconvos I think in that one, I somewhat disagree. Because repentance is necessary to be saved and it is necessary for the forgiveness of sins.
As Jesus said:
I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish. I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish.”
Luke 13:3, 5 NIV
Also, the apostles like Peter were preaching to the unsaved people the message of repentance.
Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Acts 2:38 NIV
Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord,
Acts 3:19 NIV
In the stories in Luke 15, there is joy when there is repentance, that is, when there is salvation.
I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.
Luke 15:7 NIV
I hope this helps, brother ❤️🙏
I knew I was gay in 4th grade. Saw one of my friends take off his shirt and I was like 👀. But I am kinda attracted to girls too so that's the silver lining. As of now, still a virgin at 25 and am REALLY struggling recently but it's as you said the flesh makes literal WAR with our spirit. That's why we gotta get close to God cuz we are never gonna be enough. Jesus saves us not ourselves. All we're called on to do is repent of our sins and try our best not to do them again and God does the rest in sancfifying us (making us holy and different than the world). So keep on going brother. God willing we'll make it to Paradise.
Sad to see so many denying who you are (who God made you to be!) I'm very happily bisexual! The verses refrencing homosexuality in their original hebrew refrence pedophilia and are mistranslations! It's ok to feel how you feel and to love who God made you to love :)
@@Samsamhamram I will be honest. I've since left Christianity and am now openly gay and much happier. I will be taking this comment down soon.
Edit: Or you know what ima leave it up so others can see my transformation. From religious zealot to critically thoughtful agnostic.
@@Dragontron20 HELL YEAH ME TOO! I was just on here trying to convince people that it's ok to be yourself no matter what, that's super cool. Similar journey towards agnosticism myself. Glad you've found yourself in this life :)
@@Samsamhamramwe are all born into sin but Jesus said we must be born again! You won’t understand until you have an encounter with Jesus! His love changes us forever
@@Dragontron20come back to the Lord. As someone who was Christian, backslid heavily especially in sexual sin, and God chased my heart AGAIN and now I’m surrender to Him again, his love is so amazing and wonderful and it fulfills every part of us! When we try to find love, joy and peace outside of God our flesh gets strong and we become slaves to the things of this world, that’s why we must constantly have a relationship with the Father. Not only have I started seeing and experiencing the supernatural again, healing, prophecy etc, I have peace and joy daily, and I never went more than 7 days without feeling absolutely depressed and I haven’t been depressed since I came back to Jesus❤. It’s been 7 months going strong with Him. Please start seeking Jesus, even if you have to start over with a whole new mindset of what you once had. He will reveal himself to you and such an amazing way! Jesus loves you so much, he wants you to get to know the Father and his heart. ❤
This is such a ministry you’ve been blessed with. Thank you.
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for your testimony. Love you brother god bless you.
Thank you so much Eduardo, God bless!
I appreciate this a lot. It’s tough connecting with Christian thought as gay men who want to pursue a partner who is also united with Christ. And I’ve been searching a while as a single man turning 50 this summer.
Thank you for sharing this perspective, it's one that has been difficult for me to find among other believers. Sin does not send you to Hell, good works do not send you to Heaven. It's about receiving the gift of Christ's sacrifice; that alone is what allows us to have fellowship with the Father.
Totally agree Adrian, thank you so much! God bless!
Amen. And Christ's sacrifice was sufficient for us. There is no need to keep suffering for sin. That's the Gospel message that rescued me from hating and torturing myself for being gay, thank the Lord!
Awesome video. What church do you go to? So hard to find any good free grace preaching churches nowadays. I listen to Yankee Arnold, BibleLine(Jesse Martinez), Tom Cucuzza, Onorato Diamante, and John Ricci, on youtube as they are some of the only people that preach the true gospel of Jesus Christ.
Thanks so much! Yeah it really is so hard to find a free grace church. I also like Yankee Arnold as well! I used to watch Calvary Chapel of Philly and they were mostly free grace. It really is hard to find true free grace preachers nowadays. God bless!
God bless you brother. I have such great respect for your desire to put Christ before your flesh. I pray that your walk continues to get stronger and your testimony helps so many others.
Thank you so much for that encouragement, God bless!
What part of “thou shalt have no gods before me“ do g-nt-l-s not understand?
Amen. God bless you brother. It's not about homo to straight but about being God's child.
Amen, God bless!
Thanks for being so honest about it! You are right, talking honestly about it is discouraged, which is a shame. The homosexual feelings aren't a choice or anyone's fault. I've struggled with attraction to women as well but I know it's down to childhood trauma and I am permanently with a man and try not to think about it, kind of
Homophobia is the real sin
Romans 1:25-28 it may not be a choice but it’s not something you were born with either
Thank you for making this video!
Thanks Olivia! God bless!
I think we all struggle with something. But I know that the word of God never says it would be easy. The path is narrow. I have been married for 29 years and for the last 24 years my wife has been disable. It is not easy to live like that. But I know that my saviour is always with me and helps me to get thru to the difficulties of this life.
good on you bro keep it up
For sure, like it says in James, in this life we will have trials and tribulations. However, the knowledge that we are already saved by Christ's blood alone is what motivates us to keep serving The One who saved us. God bless!
I’ve been there too brother. I’m putting the finishing touches on a book of my story. Blessings.
God bless!
Hopefully it ends with you in the loving arms of a handsome prince.
Felt so alone in this! I'm a married gay male , who was panged with guilt about defying Christ's definition of marriage...been w my husband now for 25 yrs...but have chosen celibacy..now I fight the porn monster...no matter what I try I fall into one sin or another 😢
Very sorry to hear about that Jeremy, I appreciate you being so open and honest and sharing your experience. God bless!
Celibacy is a choice. Homosexuality is not.
Hey man, I really liked your video and appreciate a man who speaks honestly of his heart. I do think however to say we are not saved by repentence is not something the bible teaches, Jesus does say that whoever believes will be saved, but he also says we will perish unless we repent. Believing and repentence should go hand in hand, as when a person truly believes in God, they will desire to repent and turn away from their sin. I am sorry that you had to struggle through those attractions, but thoughts you cannot control do not make you sinful, it is the act of wanting to fulfill that desire and physically doing so is what leads us to fall into sin. Perhaps I am wrong, we all still have so much to learn, but it is important to not take scripture partially. God bless you man
Hello Noah! Thank you for your comment! Regarding your comment, I do believe that repentance is necessary for salvation, however, what is it that we are repenting from? In Hebrews 6:1 it says to not lay again the foundation of repentance from dead works and of Faith towards God. The Greek word for repent, "metanoia" literally means to change your mind. So, we see that we change our mind about trusting in our "dead works" for salvation (anything that is not Christ alone) and turn to Faith in God instead. I am all for repenting of sin, however, nowhere in Scripture does it say that we repent of sins for eternal life. Rather this is something we SHOULD do AFTER we are saved by Grace through Faith alone as it just makes sense that we would serve the one who saved us (Romans 12:1). Regarding sin, I would actually disagree that sin is not just limited to wants and acts, as sin is a part of our very nature, this is why Scripture says that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God (1 Corinthians 15:50). We sin in thought, word, and deed. This is why Jesus had to come and pay for all of our sin because there is no way we could have gotten rid of it (we sin so much more than we realize). Not only this, but sin requires atonement and repenting of sins doesn't atone for our sin, so even if you repent of your sins, those sins are still on your account (Hebrews 9:22). Only the blood of Christ is an acceptable sacrifice for ALL of our sins, and this is applied to us the second we believe The Gospel (Ephesians 1:13 & Acts 16:30-31). I hope this helps clear things up! God bless!
The only thing you have to repent for is hiding behind Jesus to justify attacking God for making you a homosexual.
I had to come to the same conclusion about my life. I'm hetero male and have struggled with sex & relationships my whole life. This is compounded by being divorced years ago.
Scripture is clear about my circumstances, the proper act of loving obedience & appreciation for all God's done is to remain single & celebate.
That terrified me. But what an amazing gift it's turned out to be for so many reasons. Any struggles I've had are nothing compared to the difficulty of doing things my own way.
Happy for you andbthanks for your voice.🙏🏽
Scripture is indeed clear, but not on the teaching that gay people need to remain celibate. Please consider Matt 19:12 and Galatians 3:28.
Love this Jack! Thank you for sharing brother! We all fall short but I’m so grateful we are saved thru Christ alone ❤️
Amen! God bless!
My grandson came out as gay when he was 16. He is a Christian, but isn't walking with God and believes every Christian is homophobic. He walked away from our relationship until last summer when I saw him briefly and hugged him and told him I missed him so much. I've invited him to come see us several times by text and he finally came for dinner in August and I was so excited to see him and have him visit. He is 19 now. He came at the beginning of November and painted with me and he talked a lot and it was so wonderful to be with him like we used to be. I homeschooled him and his sisters for 6 years before they moved 45 min. away. I invited him to my annual grandchildren Christmas party and he came and on the way home, he told his older sister that he had been told that I and my husband were homophobic and he was surprised that we weren't. I am not sure what they mean by being homophobic. Does that mean we are afraid to be in a relationship with them? Can someone define for us what they actually mean by being homophobic? I love my grandson. I believe the Bible is true, but that doesn't mean I shun people who disagree with it or don't live it out. I still have friends that are not Christians. I don't condone some of the things that they do, but that doesn't mean I don't associate with them. I love them and pray for them. I have several people in my life that are gay, a niece, a nephew that died of AIDS, a brother-in-law and I love them all. I don't condone their lifestyle, I won't celebrate it...does that mean I am homophobic? I am truly wondering what it actually means.
Hello Don and Birdie! Thank you for your comment and for reaching out. I would say that homophobia is more of a strong feeling of hatred or disgust with that community. I know other people have their own definitions for the term but from what you have told me, it sounds to me like you are extremely loving towards your grandson as well as the other friends in your life. I hope this helps! God bless!
Please include me in your prayers brother because am struggling the same and thanks God lead me to your videos.
Will be keeping you in prayer, Ryan 🙏 God bless!
Love your testimony
The struggle is real. Thanks for sharing your testimony.

The good Lord has brought me and my husband a same sex attracted neighbor. By providence I have been cooking him dinner once a week and showing him Christs love. I don’t know if he knows if I am a Christian but I pray for him as I make the food. We never know how our Lord is using us to reach the suffering. May the good Lord be with you all ❤
When you say you don't need to repent to be saved, can you elaborate on what you mean? My understanding of the Gospel in the Scripture is that repentance of sin is required to receive the gift of salvation, regardless of whatever specific sins we are struggling with, however repentance isn't some "work" where you go through the motions of praying and asking God to forgive you, but rather an attitude of genuine sorrow for your sin. Also while I believe it only takes one time to repent and receive eternal salvation, continual repenting of specific sins does aid in the process of sanctification. But it has to be a genuine repentance, not a going through the motions. What are your thoughts?
Hello Bach Beethoven Berg, I believe that repentance is required for salvation, however not specifically repenting of sins. In Hebrews it says we repent of dead works, towards Faith in God. I believe repenting of sins is good and something we should do (as I've said in many videos) however, repenting of sins is a work as it says in Jonah and as it says in Romans, salvation is not of works. We repent (metanoia = change of mind) from trusting in our dead works for salvation and turn towards Faith in God. Hope this clears things up!
I hope to see a day where a child can openly share their struggle with this and not feel hated or misunderstood. This isn’t a choice. Why would any follower of Christ want this? I just want to try to live a celibate life without the whispers, the questions about why I’m still unmarried, the judgment. The cross I have to carry is just heavier than what most have, but it would be nice if fellow Christians could help me carry it.
God said it when he created Adam and Eve. It is not good for man to be alone, so why was I given no other option than to be alone? To the Christian’s who hate homosexuality and say awful things, would you be able to live without ever having a first kiss? Never having romantic affection, sex, a lifelong companion? It is such an isolating lonely life. I will stay strong though.
Amen, it is unfortunately misunderstood by so many. God bless!
It appears that many of those feeling they are homosexual were exposed to pornography or sexual abuse during early childhood. There maybe deliverance needed. I honestly believe if whoever struggles with any kind of sin and cries out to God, they will be delivered. What can you say on this?
I would say that we all struggle with sin in many shapes and forms and for different reasons. God certainly has the power to heal, but that doesn't mean He is going to "cure" everything as Paul prayed for God to remove the thorn from his side 3 times and God told Him that His Grace was sufficient for him. Some struggles, God cures, others, He gives us the Grace to manage and live with. Hope this answers your question. God bless!
Thank you for the video.
Hope it helped! God bless you John!

Its good to talk about
And help others
Totally agree, God bless you Dave!
I need to make another "gary gays-can't-be-saved" parody.
I've been learning and doing Free-Grace vids for a little over a year. I yell and call names a lot... but I see people preaching ROYS/POTS as being asleep, and someone has to conk them over the head. The people that reformed my various theological standings, over the years woke me up. Their messages were simple, clear, bold, even upsetting.
But it was cool to see your nice, calm video. Didn't think of that demeanor as possible, guess I'm just wired differently. 😅
Anyway, you're still bold to share the Gospel of Grace unashamedly; Godspeed to that!
#rawgrace
Thank you so much! Keeping a calm demeanor when people are ignorant is definitely a skill I am still working on haha. God bless!
Bless you for sharing this, you are such an encouragement.
I have been on my own and celibate for 23 years.
We can do all thing through Christ who strengthens us, all glory to our Lord and Saviour 🙌
Amen, God bless!
but it is God that creates LGBT people
Are you 23 years old or in your 30s and have been celibate since you were of age to date?
@@joseffwilliams7369 Homophobics lie so who knows.
@@joseffwilliams7369 Hi, I am 60. Sorry I didn’t make it very clear in my post.
Hey, do you allow yourself to be friends with someone you have had feeling for? I mean i want to remain friends with someone but I fear that It is now enough according to the Gospel. I love this person deeply but do not have any kind of sexual desire or would ever be in a romantic relationship with them
Hello Ang! I personally believe it depends on the person. Personally, I am actually still friends with someone I dated a long time ago, but I also know that some people may feel like they can’t remain friends with people for different reasons. If you start to feel like what you are doing is wrong or start to question whether or not you should remain friends with someone, I would take some time to try to figure out why you might be feeling that way and then go from there.
You dumped him for Jesus, but insist “still being friends“ while holding out on him. That’s morally wrong.
What do you mean "actively living it out"? I'm abstinent with my boyfriend for over a year. We aren't ready for marriage yet.
Gay men who don’t want to be promiscuous are often stigmatized as being “sex negative” simply for having standards and for wanting to be wanted for more than just a one-night stand.
Waiting until you’re married is not the same as celibacy.
I agree with everyone up until how you word 8:02 without further diving into what that means , from a scriptural point. Anybody can take that and say " okay cool i dont have to repent. I just need to " actively " pursue God.
my best friend into eternity. love u forever.
Love you so much too! God bless! :)
Its a struggle for sure. I, feel this way as well. Thank you
God bless!
You can't change your sexuality, you can only change your perspective of love, and then you will feel attraction to that person, not because of sexuality but for the person you love, that's how it is with God; we don't try to be perfect, instead, we live our lives for God, and we love Him because He loves and wants the best for us. So as a homosexual person, don't think that to become a Christian, you have to try and become straight, even straight people lust and fall into temptation, and they can only change if they put the love of God first; the same applies to you as well, we are all equal🙏❤.
God bless brother. If it's any condolence, lust is still a hell of a demon as a straight man. Marriage doesn't cure it, straight men still need to fix their hearts.
Great testimony ❤❤
Thank you so much Nipun! God bless!
If you’re struggling with this it means you need to be closer to Jesus Christ✝️

Awe, I am so sorry you all it sounds difficult, and more than black and white. I am not same sex attracted but I am single and have been for a long time. I made serious sacrifices for the Lord.

Good job bro!
Thanks Justin! God bless!
I clicked on this video just out of interest. I'm not homosexual. But the message I got from this was so simple. That I am save by God's grace alone. Not through repentance. The church that introduced me to the gospel who I left later in my teenage years because the culture there got toxic had such a huge focus on repentance. I remember being young and fired for God, I had this one question for my church leader "what if I sinned and I didn't repent before I suddenly died - will I go to hell?" she literally said "yes". Every time I would sin, big or small - I would quickly repent. This made me so paranoid and anxious. Eventually this act of trying to be good and repenting every time I fell short led me away from the church. I'm now finding this video and realising that I was falsely taught all these years. Thank you for providing the verses! God bless you.
So glad the video helped! God bless!
I really like your speech.
Thank you Terry! God bless!
Hey, ex Christian here. LGBTQ+ rights are really important to me, because as much as my personal study of the Bible lead me to believe that it was in fact homophobic and transphobic (among many other things), however it never once offered me a reason to believe that it was harmful. It seems to me you believe that homosexuality isn’t moral. I’d like you or anyone else to offer me one reason that doesn’t boil down to “Because god said so.”, and if you can’t- you really shouldn’t believe it is. I have never believed that god would just decide things are bad arbitrarily. If he is “goodness” in it of himself, then it would follow that going against him would cause harm to yourself or others.
However! I would like to be kind and say that while there are tons of offensive things implied in this video, you never actually criticized homosexuality directly or the people who practice it. That is a good thing, even though I think it’s pretty wishy washy and non-committal. I’m glad you’re not committing to homophobia.
i’m struggling so bad right now i have a fiancé and i believe ive been straight ( i thought i was lesbi in middle but it turned to be a phase) i hate that i feel like im attracted to women again . thank you for your video because im not doing so good :(
You don't have to choose between being straight and being lesbian.
Bisexuality is a thing
*_Amen Jack!_* well said.

Thanks so much for posting this. It is so similar to my journey with sexuality. I have arrived at many of the same conclusions as you and have been wanting to share my testimony. For me, that mainly came in the form of writing a short story and putting it up on my website, but I might also share it as a video now that I have seen this.
Thank you so much!
Thanks so much Matouš! It is super encouraging to know that there are other brothers on this journey with us. Would love to check out your website as well so feel free to reach out! God bless!
@@christianconvos Sweet, I'll try to remember to link it here when I host it publicly.
I am so sorry you've been brainwashed into believing your unchangeably intrinsic identity is sinful! I have been in your shoes, but I promise when you leave the cult, stop hating yourself, get to know your true self, and allow yourself to experience queer love, life will become more beautiful than you ever knew was possible. Love is not wrong. Love is joy. Do not stand in opposition to love - live through love. It's waiting for you. You just need to stop hating yourself first
In the UK there is a group (apparently) for same sex attracted Christians. They help and support one another as they study and pray etc. I'm not same sex attracted, so I'm not 100% what their ministry is - my son works for a big church over here in the UK and he had to go to a talk given by the people leading the ministry!
You know, we all struggle with a variety of sins, whether it's opposite sex or same sex attraction, lust, hatred, envy etc - stay strong and keep looking to the Lord!
Sooooo, I felt led to watch this and also to type this up.
So when I was in secondary school, I fell into pornography as well as same sex attraction to my best friend later down. Multiple people had also confessed to me (male and female) and during that time I was a Christian. I was always plagued with sexual dreams etc etc.
I needed deliverance cause a. Said best friend was a witch. B. I was living a life of unrepentant sin. C. I was essentially being peer pressured to accept homosexuality.
You must repent and walk in that repentance aka staying away from the things that cause you to fall into sin.
I felt like a imposter, I felt disgusting in my own skin because I knew God was not pleased. I became so wrapped up in sin that I literally told God, "I don't want to repent and I'm not going to lie to you and say I am when I'm not, so you give me a heart of repentance." That was simultaneously the most terrifying rebellious thing I've ever done in my life, BUT, because I said the truth, it was the best thing I ever did. Two weeks later, God broke me and I repented in tears. It was a year and a half journey after that to be fully delivered but it's worth it.
So to my brothers and sisters in Christ who are afflicted by these things, you do not wrestle against flesh and blood so you must put on your full armour. Read the scriptures, seek his face, draw nearer to Him. Submit fully to him and He will set you free. It's hard, it's tough but it's worth giving it up for Christ, because the spirit of homosexuality is an Anti Christ spirit. It desires to draw you away and destroy you. It's pride, and God hates pride , and pride goes before the fall. It's an abomination and God hates abominations. That's why Jesus Christ died, to set you free. So that when the Father sees you, He sees His son. I pray you receive the deliverance you all need and can live a life according to the will of God. God bless you and I love you all. Keep on fighting with the Word of God as your weapon and you will be set free.
I can relate. I like you have SSA and I agree with God on what sin is. We are in a body of flesh that always wants what it wants. Once we are born again by the spirit we then recognize this. I personally can’t live out a gay lifestyle in that I can’t get gay married or be in a same sex romantic relationship because scripture is clear as day on this. But we are still in a body of hormones and needs and because we aren’t with a wife and able to engage with a wife that way its a challenge that is unique to people like us. Its a battle between the flesh and the spirit but like you said we aren’t saved by our law keeping or our sin management I like to call it. But ultimately our Jesus knows we are weak he knows us better than we know ourselves. And his grace is sufficient for us. And the beautiful thing is Jesus loves me regardless. He loves you regardless. Anyone who says different is a heretic and I would question if they even have the fruit of love. Jesus was clear on love thy neighbor as thyself. And also most Christians don’t realize that same sex attraction is not a choice. Now what we do with it is but even that is brutally difficult because we are all humans with hormones and physiological pulls and emotional issues. Its simply being a created human by God. Its just that even at our biological level we are born into flaws. Sin from Adam Eve entered the world and even our genetic makeup is flawed by original sin. Thank God Jesus takes us imperfect sinful beings and makes us imperishable by his once for all sacrifice on that tree. He saves all who believe in him for it. Easy believism ? You better believe he made it easy. Because if he made it hard then ain’t anyone making it to heaven my fellow believers. Remember you and me would have to be PERFECT and SIn FREE and remember it is clear in scripture that anyone say they have no sin the truth is not in them. God bless you for opening yourself up to possible pariah status. But Jesus has you and since he does who can come against you right? Jesus is KING!!! And he brings me such joy and humility. I bow down now and I am so blessed. Love you brother! Jesus plus nothing equals EVERYTHING!

This is a good testimony Jack and I have to admit that I lol at the soy milk comment; I never heard that before!

@@MadMScenery To life in celibacy like a monk is a decision for a spiritual life.
When a homosexuals declares himself as a (not existing) "ex-homosexual" and lifes in celibacy out of guilt and shame, this is not a decision for a spiritual life, this is a wrong decision based on a wrong man-made morality.
Homosexuality is a natural healthy born sexual orientation with an evoutionary meaning.
So the reason is important why you decide to have a loving partner or not or creating a family or life alone.
A man-made false biblical moral is no good answer here.
You cannot remain in grace without repentance.

I am struggling with exactly this. I just get so angry because I feel robbed of a romantic life. Other inherent sins feel so different to this. Jealousy, idol worshipping, gossip, etc. they are all things we can manage to an extent. But this desire is so strong and so prevalent that you can never lead a "straight life" and enjoy sex the way God intended it. It's almost like why did He choose me of all people to never be able to have good, biblical intimacy without feeling shame. It just feels so unfair.
I completely understand how you feel, I definitely have had similar questions as well. I would be lying if I said I have the exact answer to why things are the way they are, but I just try to continue living life trusting The LORD. God bless!

Hi! It's sooo Amazing to see you young folks challenge many of us Christians Today, with ur lives & your Struggles, to Decide to pick up your Cross & follow our Lord. Bcos Paul said; "it is in our weakness, that we are made Strong".
The conflict within Man did not start Today; (Romans 7&8)Tells us how we can be set free from the Power of Sin. Please... Peeps, It is not ur Nature or Identity. It's d Power of Sin. But Jesus sets us Free from Sin & Death(John 8:34-36), through the Greater Power of the Gospel (Romans 1:16). God's Grace is Always Sufficient for us All, " 'IF' we seek Him, we will find Him, when we look for Him, with All... Our Hearts".
Yes, God sooo Love us and He wants to save us, but He wants us to come near to Him First. Check out the book of HOSEA or watch the movie, to capture the Love of God for us.
Thanks!
Thanks for sharing your story, man! I too am a Christian with SSA, and when I first came to terms with it, I started watching so many coming out videos. But they were all created by people that supported that lifestyle, which led me to start supporting that lifestyle myself. But after a couple years, I realized that is not what God had planned for me. So it’s very encouraging to find a video of someone’s testimony about their SSA without the video ending with “do what makes you happy” or something along those lines. And if you want any books on the matter, I suggest looking into Sam Allberry. He is a pastor that also deals with SSA and has written a few books including “Is God Anti-gay?” and “7 Myths About Singleness.” I’m currently reading that latter, and it has been changing the way I look at my celibacy. No longer as something comparable to a curse, but as a gift. Keep making great videos and God bless!
Thanks so much Samuel! The struggle is definitely real, but God has us on this path for a reason and God will certainly be with us through it. God bless!
