Can a Person be Born Homosexual?

[-Phil]

Homophobia is really the ignorance of believing in separate things & the fear felt accordingly.
You’d have to be a fool to believe the thoughts and deny & suppress the feeling.

Sexually you can become the product of your imagination. I can imagine, though, more than the bears being sick beholding such activity...

Can a Person be Born Homosexual?


The very short answer to this, from the Holy Bible, is a resounding, NO!

Regardless of what so-called “science” may say, about some people who are born with a “homosexual gene”, the irrefutable evidence in the Infallible, Inerrant and Perfect Word of God, the Holy Bible, is very clear on this important subject.

It is IMPOSSIBLE for any human being, who is Created in the Image of Almighty God, though fallen, to be “born” as a homosexual.

In the first place, we read in Romans chapter 1, where Paul, writing under the Inspiration of God the Holy Spirit, says:

“For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due” (verses 26-27)

In this passage, we have the use of the Greek adjective, “physikós”, which is translated as “natural”. Here it has the literal root use of, “inborn”, which here means, “inherited from parents or possessed from birth”, as part of the humans DNA. God has made sure, that each and every person who is born, has from the time of conception, inbuilt in their DNA, the natural desire for the opposite sex.

In the second place, we also have the very clear Testimony of passages in the Holy Bible, where homosexuality is regarded as, and condemned as SIN.

‘You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination’. Leviticus 18:22

‘If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death; their blood is upon them’. Leviticus 20:13

‘For this reason God gave them up to dishonourable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error’. Romans 1:26-27

‘Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor persons who practice homosexuality, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God’.1 Corinthians 6:9-10

‘The law is not laid down for the just but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who strike their fathers and mothers, for murderers, for the sexually immoral, persons who practise homosexuality, enslavers, liars, perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound doctrine’.1 Timothy. 1:9-10

If humans can be “born” as homosexuals, then God, Who is The Righteous Judge, would not have said in His Infallible Word, that homosexuality is “SIN”. Because, if a person can indeed be “born” homosexual, as from their birth, then it is something that is outside of their control, and they cannot have a real “choice” in this.

The Word of God is clear, that homosexuality is SINFUL, and therefore not as part of the humans DNA, from their Creation in their mothers womb.

“Science” is perverting what the Holy Bible Teaches on this subject, to justify the SINFUL lives of those who CHOOSE to be homosexual, which is clearly against what God says.

I'm probably going against the crowd here but I would say there is a verse that seems to suggest that possibility. However, just because someone feels like they're homosexual they don't have to act on their desires. I don't think homosexuality in and of it self is a sin, it's the actions that go along with it. Let's face it, as heterosexuals, there are ample ways to commit sin against God. I believe if a person is a christian but feels they are homosexual but decides in their heart that their love for God is greater than their love for themselves and because of that, lives a life of celibacy, they would be fine. Their road would be infinitely harder than most but I also think their reward would be much greater because of that. Here is the verse: Matt. 19:12 - "For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it." The common definition of a eunuch is a castrated male, but how can a person be born that way. The fact is that eunuchs, because of a lack of testosterone, tended to act more feminine than masculine and many desired younger boys. In this case I think the scripture may be talking about a way a person acts, rather than a result of voluntary or involuntary surgery. Just an opinion, I'm not dogmatic about it.

Homophobia is a made up term used by the left to call those who simply do not agree with the immorality the left loves to wallow in. The left tries to make themselves the standard of morality (when they have none) whereby they think they alone can decide what is right and wrong for all people. Therefore if one does not agree with the left's immoral agenda one gets labeled a homophobe or a racist to the point those words have no meaning, that is, they mean only what leftists want them to mean.


phobia: - 'extreme or irrational fear or dislike of a specified thing or group'

A righteous hatred of a sin does not make one an "irrational phobe". Proverbs 6:16-19 there are things God hates but that does not make God an "irrational phobe". I hate murder but that does not make me a 'murder-ophobe', hating rape does not make one a 'rape-ophobe', hating pedophilia does not make one a 'pedo-phobe', hating thievery does not make one a 'thief-ophobe, hating adultery does not make on an adultery-ophobe. Such an idea is intellectually dishonest for it tries to make opposition to sin/evil/wrongdoing as 'irrational' when there is nothing irrational about hating things that are wrong.

People become homosexual while being alive, this is not natural and is against God and his law. This is from satan and is sin.

You’d have to be a fool to believe the thoughts and deny & suppress the feeling.

If the thoughts & beliefs were inspected & dispelled, all that would remain is the feeling.
And therein there would be no fear, and no judgement, and ye would see clearly ye was talking about yourself all along.

The key misunderstanding is that you or God hates.
Hate’s an emotion, not a thing, action or behavior.
Listen to ‘it’, and liberate therein.
Understand precisely why and how the suffering & fear are felt & it evaporates.
Then it’s revealed you love ‘them’, very very very much.

Right & wrong are just thoughts believed, opinions.
Gay people aren’t experiencing the fear & suffering you are, of your beliefs.
It’s ok if you’re gay. You’re perfect, as you are.

Appearance never becomes anything; only appears to.
You’re judgement is based on believing in things you’ve never even experienced (God, Satan & sin).
You speak of God in utter ignorance of what you speak of.

But most relevantly, you feel all the discord & suffering of doing so.
