All you Christains or theist that keep lying on the devil regarding homosexuality are all bloody lairs! Is it the devil that allow men to explore their an*l interest again? Assuming we're debating about men and women now, you guys won't be swearing and blaming him for our madness. Even, there are reports that state the rate at which ladies wanted to be satisfied anally is on the rise, still, we're still blaming the devil for our dysfunctional behaviors. We should all remember one thing, human beings are explorers, and for us to get high at times we must try the abstracts. We should stop blaming the devil for everything! Any homo being caught in Nigeria should be beheaded! |

If u claim to truly believe in Jesus then you will ask him and he will make u free from this gay demon instead of trying 2 justify being gay. If u must know, u r actually not gay because God created u 2 be straight and anything contrary to what God does or says is obviously UNTRUE. The devil is always out to make u think what God has done or said is a lie hence u think u should be sleeping with your kind but God is not deceived and i sure hope u don't let urself be deceived by the devil. Just ask Jesus to help u and begin to declare with your mouth that u r straight and not gay, then start acting likewise; i assure u that every negative feeling will dissipate provided you have truly given ur life 2 Jesus. God bless u as u do and congrats on ur deliverance... |

Romans 1:21-32: 21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, 23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. 24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: 25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. 26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: 27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. 28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; Also, 1 Kings 14:24: 'There were even male shrine prostitutes in the land; the people engaged in all the detestable practices of the nations the LORD had driven out before the Israelites' To crown it up read, 1 Corinthians 6:9 '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 men who practice homosexuality': |

I believe in prayers. The truth is you cannot be a gay and still be a christian. If you are being tempted, its a different thing entirely though you must still pray. GOD loves gays but he hates gayism. So if you discover you indulge in it and cant do without it PRAY! Prayer works wonder. Let us be frank with ourselves, many of us have done this thing(mostly when we were young) its just that some people probably went indepthly and find it difficult to come out. We may be homophobic but we did something like this but when we see others do it we are disgusted. Now Many people have given their lives to CHRIST because of this(very many people including some of us that our mouths are sharp. Remember the same measure you use to judge others, GOD will use it judging you and even with a greater measure). Many big pastors have indulged in this before they gave their lives to CHRIST. And trust me CHRIST delivered them all. They may not want to share it because probably we will stigmatise them(though they've repented 'o'!) you know we christians are good in hypocrisy forgetting that JESUS CHRIST is our righteousness and that our righteousness is nothing but filthy rags before GOD. This gay thing is serious 'o'! And christians have to start a non discriminating counselling to people who think they cant change. Out of 10 guys just may be 2 or even 1 may not have engaged in this. Im a guy i know what im saying. Of the remaining 8 or 9, 3 or 4 especially may have done it indepthly, 2 of the 3 or 4 may give their lives to CHRIST when they discover they cant do without it and trust me, such get delivered(when they keep to JESUS) though temptations may come. Just 1 or 2 remaining from the 3 or 4 may be left with the thinking 'i can never change' so they may choose to either marry early to remove people's eyes from their status, or go after 'serious' chasing of girls, or come out to say they are gays. The rest 4 or 5 may show serious hypocrisy to it. Now bible says ask and you shall be given. In sin we were conceived abi. We were all born into sin. Just sit GOD down one on one to deliver you and he will. Ex gays are usually a threat to the kingdom of darkness as GOD empowers them with his power. The devil knows this and he has chosen to deceive men with such problems that they can never change. The truth is he doesnt want his kingdom to be attacked by this people whom GOD loves. GOD loves them but hates their sin. I tell you when a gay repents, he does more exploits than a straight fornicator who repents and stands a higher chance of making heaven than the straight fornicator who repents. |

there is a difference between sin and abomination. homosexualism is an abomination before God that is it is worse than sin. that means an homosexual is someone God doesn't even want to look at. so don't you try to justify that abominable act, homosexualism, its vile and disgusting before God and me. 1 Like |

Use googleyou dont need to but dont your brothers in kano do it? Their own is even worse they stand on the road. Even in kd along murtala square arent they there. I reside in the north and im telling you out of 30 to 40 abokis just 1 (who may have mixed with a southerner) may be straight. When some guys drive here, they fix some part of their leg on steering, mostly left. Why is that so? You people's own state is even critical because you need redemption which you cant get unless you believe in CHRIST as the son of GOD, SAVIOUR OF THE WORLD and GOD THE SON. Give your life to CHRIST it will do you good. GOD bless you IJMN. AMEN |

People don't get a choice about whether they are gay or not, they either are, or they're not. That need to be understood first of. There is no sin in having homosexual tendencies. There is nothing sinful in being attracted to the same gender. What is wrong in Christianity faith is acting on those tendencies. Many Christian churches choose to interpret the Bible differently and so choose to justify their sin, but many do not. Many Christian churches choose to ostracize gays as choosing this path, and thereby drive them away from their church. The trick is acknowledging their existence, and then supporting them in their trials. Homosexuals have hard trials. They either need to live a totally celibate life, or else they need to learn to love someone of the opposite gender. I can't tell which is harder. I have a close male homosexual friend who married a homosexual woman, who was his best friend. He loved her as a friend and as a person, and he has since learned to love her as a wife. They have two children together. I have another homosexual friend who will never go on a single date with anyone of either gender. That is what she decided she needed to do in order to keep herself free of sin. Both of these people have a hard life, and why God decided they needed this particular challenge in their life, I don't know. But both of these friends are dealing with it, in a righteous way, and I am very proud of both of them. 1 Like |

jidegirl12: This is the only place where Boko Haram and the rest of the Arab world would be justified when it comes to Western education. So you want to educate Nigerians on homosexuality, abi? What sort of education would that be? Who would blame Boko Haram for rejecting your so-called education? It profited nothing on the basis of morality. It used to be modest dressing in Africa. Now what do we have; our girls going unclad on the street; Nollywood copycatting Hollywood on sexual scene; lawmakers lobbying for legalization of infant and gay marriage; Fashola deporting own citizen based on some Texas law; Churches springing up everywhere based on white-man idea, Social sites collecting information of every one for govt purposes, and the rest goes on and on. Now, tell me, what education are you really talking about here? Do you want to teach me Physics, ooh maybe quantum physics, what about sex education or even sociology of life. I might even tell you more; the psychiatric theory of Homosexuality assert that homosexuality is a regression of the earliest. And maybe you haven't heard of Sexually antagonistic selection. Homosexuality is a condition viewed as a effect of female evolution. And anything that doesn't lead to reproduction dies a natural death! Yes we are underdeveloped as a nation, and yes education is still needed in some larger part of the country, but what we have is common sense and morality. The norms and teachings of our heroes past shall never be in vain. |

Movingcoil: u ar only seeing complicated things cos ur life is complicated and as u said itz confusing u, if u want to worship God, u do and if u don't want to serve him, just Bleep off and stopping confusing others as uve done to urself. that I fornicate does not give me the right to use bible to back it up. inshort gerrot It's funny how, in trying to tell someone that he's wrong, people get all so defensive to the point of insulting that person and probably beating that person for having a different belief. The difference between you and the boko haram extremist isn't that far-fetched. It takes just a little bit more before you start doing same. All because of what you believe in. In their minds, they are right, and fighting for a just cause...in your mind too, you are right. That is religion for you. It can wasp your mind and blind you from looking beyond what you've been told, or what you think you feel. I wouldn't reply you further. 1 Like |

Re: Can You Be A Christian And Still Be Gay? by topatee: 8:50am On Sep 04, 2013 |
Dear NL, please read very carefully befor you judge me What differentiates a Christian’s life from a non-Christian’s life is the struggle against sin The Christian life is a progressive journey of overcoming the “acts of the flesh” (Galatians 5:19-21) and allowing God’s Spirit to produce the “fruit of the Spirit” (Galatians 5:22-23). Yes, Christians sin, sometimes horribly. A true Christian will always repent, will always eventually return to God, and will always resume the struggle against sin. But the Bible gives no support for the idea that a person who perpetually and unrepentantly engages in sin can indeed be a Christian. Notice 1 Corinthians 6:11, "And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God." |
