Being Gay is not a Sin

Hello everyone, I would like to let you all know that being gay isn't a sin and
I know this for a fact. You see I am a gay and God moves powerfully in my
life everyday, It began quite simply with a miracle. You see, I was very
severely mentally ill for almost 25 years. I was paranoid, heard voices, saw
things, hurt myself and others, often became horribly depressed and would
try to kill myself. I have been forcefully commited to psych hospitals many
times and I received a S.S.I disability chec because I was so disturbed I
couldn't work so I wasn't certifiable, I was certified. I have told this testimony
previously, it's on this site. After hours of prayer in which I demanded proof that
God loves me, he healed me of my mental illness. I am still gay, my fantasies are
of men only, I haven't taken any psych meds in over a year, no voices, paranoia,
delusions or thoughts of hurting myself. When I masturbate, which I try to keep
to a minimum, it's to guys and God still protects me from violence, I haven't been in
a fight since God healed me and fights happen a lot in prison. I cannot hide
what is in my heart and God still fills me with his spirit. I am attracted to men,
yet God still talks to me and comforts. I wouldn't change if I could, yet
when I call on God he still protects me from the attacks of the enemy, I'm
gay and God knows it, yet he surrounds me with his lover everyday, I want
you to think about this, if any man says he knows the mind and will of God
Ask him to walk on water or heal the sick. If he can't then you know he is
not as close to the father as he claims. However, I ask you to consider this,
we (as gay men and women) should not be promiscuous, we should not give in to
lust. God is love and if your relationship is founded on love it is in no way
displeasing in the eyes of the father. "Lean not on your own understanding," but
if you ask God about this and you do it with love in your heart for the Lord
and all his children and with a willingness to be a true servent of God and all
his children, he will answer. God loves us, all of us, period. May God bless you
all.

Peace,

Thanks for writing! I finished the transcription for your post. Thought is was a very fascinating read and perspective on God and homosexuality. Also glad to hear that you are not suffering any more.
