Homosexuality: An act of Immorality

Homosexuality: An act of immorality

Read Romans 1:18-32 As we look at homosexuality and finish looking at the danger of rejecting God and accepting immorality and unrighteousness, I want us to understand the direction that we are headed in this month. No doubt according to this passage that God condemns homosexuality, but please do not single this act of immorality out as the only part of this passage. We need to understand that God points out many immoral and unrighteous acts that He condemns. However please notice that it is the act of sin that He condemns that the person. There is always hope for someone to reject the sin in their life and turn to Christ and accept His forgiveness. We should not accept sin in any form, but we should never reject a person who is caught up in living a life marked by sin. For each one of us is guilty of that and yet God has seen fit to forgive you and set you free. Homosexuality is a sin no doubt against God, but the homosexual is a person who God died for and gives the opportunity to seek forgiveness. The only difference in God's eyes between you and a homosexual who is unsaved is the blood of Christ. You have been covered with the blood, the unsaved has not. We need to pray for those enslaved to sin and not condemn, we need to encourage and not insult, we need to help them see their need for Christ and not blind them to it. Father help us to love as you love, help us to see sin as you see it and help us to live a life that would point others to you.
