I love that last line about "stop saying you're born this way because when you give your life to God, you were born again".
and gays stay gay as heterosexuals stay straight when they are born again, sorry....born again gays stay gay.
@@pastorbri you can't be born again made new and still remain in your old ways...all this means you have never accepted Jesus truly.
@@brianbrandy9492 so homophobics who are born again and STAY homophobic were not renewed then....ur right! So homophobics have never accepted Jesus.
@@pastorbri Who is homophobic? And the Bible says homosexuals will not inherit the kingdom of heaven.
@@d.jcheetah8724 YOU are homophobic, the bible never even says homosexuals will not inherit the kingdom of God as the word homosexual did not exist in pauls day......do u often lie in Gods name?
I’m praying on it !!! I lived my life as a transgender woman for 14 years out of nowhere God took that desire out of my heart !!!! I feel like he is still working on me I’m just putting it all in his hands !!! Thank u God for bringing me this far !

no sin in being trans mate
🙏 Praying for you
@@pastorbri don't negate what God is doing in his life!
@@Billie_Marie_ which god though? LMAO
Having been out of the gay lifestyle for 30 years and being happily married I can testify fo the saving grace of Jesus. I always hated the lifestyle but felt compelled to live it. I love who I am now. I live in a freedom that only God can give.
Jesus is healer!

@@josukehigashkita5365 God said the old law is dead so why are u still under it?
I just want everyone to know. Having homosexual thoughts urges is not a sin!! It’s the lifestyle that is. Ask Jesus for guidance and you will overcome the thoughts and urges. I am still having my battle with homosexuality as I’m only 12. I may still have these thoughts but I will not commit the actions
I've been surching all my life to serve the Lord and be a gay man. but I can not serve to masters? THIS A TRUTH. please keep in your prayers I am coming home to the Lord JESUS 🙏 ❤
THERES NO SIN IN BEING BORN GAY. there never was.
@@pastorbri You're an idiot.
Nick Johnson you can be free in Jesus' name. This has a spirit behind it. If you want to choose Jesus and have only one master (and the best master to have ever) you must get rid of the spirit. Email mike@hardcorechristianity.com if your interested in learning how to fight to be free. Deliverance ministry is real and biblical and I have been through a few sessions of prayer and I overcome sin better than ever. Still far from perfect but a working progress. Be blessed
@@pastorbri No child is born homosexual.
@@ezekiel440 You shouldn't call people idiots.
I am gay and I see more lust in the gay community. There is no love in the gay community and I dont want to be apart of that. I want to devote myself to God. To Jesus.
God bless you Justin. I really hope and pray that God brings you out of that lifestyle. Until then, I pray He gives you the self-control to resist your same-sex attraction. Thank you for your comment.
It takes a LOT of courage to step OUT of that life style. GOOD 4 u Justin
i pity you

praise Jehovah! Be blessed. I will keep you in my prayers

Allen, I watch your videos often, and I appreciate everything you stand on. You don’t sugar coat anything, and I love that God has put you out there to tell people about the Gospel.
Man, I lived that life as a homosexual for 11 years. 11 years!! I’m a PK, and I grew up in church. I knew God was real, I believe that I was saved when I was younger, but after the last several years of living that life, it got dark. (The Bible says sin is fun for a season). I knew something was missing.. & God started giving me dreams of the rapture.. I was doing other sinful things along with that lifestyle that slowly crept upon me.. I was a slave to sin, but God spoke to me and told me to choose. Back in December of 19, I started getting more into the word. I’ve had several struggles since then, but God has helped me through it. One night I felt the Lord speak to me heart and just told me to let it go... and I did!! I asked Him to come into my heart, and pleaded for His forgiveness. The feeling I felt inside was just indescribable. Satan has me convinced for a long time that I wasn’t saved, and that I was a reprobate. When I started listening to God, one day I was in the car, driving down the road and I felt God’s presence so strongly that I bursted out in tears! I felt Him in my heart, and I honestly knew in that very moment that I was 110% assured that I was saved. I begged and pleaded for His forgiveness and felt His love so strongly. I was crying so hard that I couldn’t even see the road, & He was there guiding me. I no longer live in that lifestyle through Jesus Christ, the Savior. I’m so happy that I gave all that up because God has shown me that I can overcome through Him. God has taught me self discipline, and God is the ONLY man I need to be in a relationship with. HE gives me everything and more than any man could ever give. Actually, I’ve prayed for awhile that he will give me the attraction for women, and He has!! Anything is possible with God!! His love sustains me! He lifts me up, and He loves me! For who I am through Him!! I am forgiven of those choices that I made. He is a wonderful and mighty God!!
What a wonderful testimony you have! I slso have had struggles
in this lifestyle too God has been
my helper in not acting out. I don't
have the desire for marriage to a
man, but Jesus keeps me holy in
spite of temptations.
Amen. I'm am very glad that God spoke to you and very proud that you obeyed God
Glory to God! I pray He will continue to guide you!! :))
Powerful testimony! It encouraged me
hallelujah
When we correct someone we must do it with love and compassion.
Exactly!
@@matshadi1999 which is why homophobia is the real sin.
@M C We should be correcting people. Not because we are God but because no one will take a cure for a disease they do not know they have-sin. Therefore we should be warning people of hell and judgement day and begging that they repent and trust in God. John 7:24 says to judge with righteous judgement. 1 Peter 3:15 also says to be ready to give answers to those who ask the reason for the hope that is in you, but to do it with gentleness and respect. So in conclusion, we should correct/judge with righteousness. Especially if we, as Christians, know that they will end up in hell if they do not repent and trust in the Savior. Always remember [as an example] that God considers hatred to be murder, which means His standards are way higher than ours. And on judgement day, many people will go to hell simply because they were not warned that the sin they were holding on to so tightly would eventually drag them to hell. This isn't targeted at homosexuality, it is targeted at ALL sins. If you call yourself a Christian but are still a fornicator, idolater, adulterer, homosexual, sodomite, thief, coveter, drunkard, reviler, or extortioner, then you are not a Christian for one reason: you have yet to repent.
@@mayahj348 wrong, its called judging, more so when ita topic we know nothing of, like most homophobics have no idea what homosexuality even is or means so they assume they do and make judgments, just as the racist religious folk used to do and they also used the bible. Which is why homophobia is a sin just like a fornicator, idolater, adulterer, a racist, a bigot, thief, coveter, drunkard, reviler, or extortioner, then you are not a Christian for one reason: you have yet to repent.
pastor brian so is homosexuality a sin?
Although im a Christian, I needed to see this because I sin. I needed this so I can repent. Lord please forgive me.
How is it your fault for who you’re attracted to? I tried to ignore my feelings for females for 10 whole years because I thought it was a sin. I asked God to take these feelings out of me. He never did, I just keep suppressing it. God made all of us beautiful & unique & He doesn’t find us disgusting. If you’re interested, I suggest researching the other side that says it’s not a sin. Look up where the word “homosexual” came from & how it was used in the Bible. You are not alone.
everyone sins, the homophobics who lie in this video sinned.
@notformebeaky so u think homophobia is not wrong! weird.

I’ve read your comments here, and aside from the rather dubious claims you made about STD and abortion statistics (couldn’t help but notice you were quite vague on your sources there) my only serious question is why are you here in the first place? It’s quite obvious you’re an atheist, or more precisely an anti theist, so what possible interest do you have in THIS perspective on THIS topic? If you’re so sure of your views, why do you find it worth your time to be here expending mental energy on people and views you believe to be absurd? I’d welcome the discussion with you.
I'm not homosexual but I feel for them that wish to be christian. It can't be easy.
Nobody said life would be easy but everything we go through is for a greater purpose to give God the glory. Yes indeed, God will turn everything around for your good for his Glory ❤️❤️☺️
"Let us open our Bibles and read" I love how you rely on the Word of God to speak to us!! The Word of God is Truth! God bless you my brother🙏🏾🙏🏾

and the word of God hates the homophobic lifestyle choice
@@pastorbri You're spreading hate june throughout this comment section and harassing random people.
@@ezekiel440 so love is hate to you...I see.....no wonder you are lost....
@@pastorbri Are you an employed person? the amount of time taken to twist scripture and reply to almost every comment on here is too much for you to have another life.
By far, this is the most biblical and loving and clearest explanation I’ve ever heard on this topic!
Thank you and God bless you, brother Allen.
you need to hear from more christians then.
Aaaamen.
@@spiritfilled2589 glad u agree homophobia is a sin.
pastor brian fear of homosexuality isn’t accurate the term homophobia means your afraid of them. Are you afraid? What your trying to argue is that we shouldn’t be concerned with sin. Your not God. You don’t get to redefine sin. Fornication is fornication. The meek shall inherit the earth. Are you meek to God?
@@chaimomma9198 look, a phobia is not a fear, its an irrational hate, dislike or fear or all 3. So no most homophobics don't fear gay folk, its worse than that and its a choice.....if ur following this lifestyle ur not being very meek.
I refuse to be labeled by my temptations. I'm a child of God.
There is literally nothing wrong with being gay this is completely natural and genetic and there is proof to back up my argument you need to break your christian brainwashing and live a happy life with your gay partner
@@BMcCosmic
Is there anything wrong with being gay or having a disability. No. What about the acts of homosexuality, doing drugs or getting drunk? If anyone is gay, that doesn't give the right to do the act of homosexuality. If anyone has a disability, that doesn't give them a right to do drugs or getting drunk. Everyone has free will to do sin but that doesn't give them the right to do it.
@@kennethray3653 so whatyiu are admitting that god made a group of people that would naturally sin based on their sexuality and expect them not to act upon it which is an oxymoron and the word homosexual was added to the bible in 1946 and was never used before that
And 'flattening atheism' which is the stupidest name I've ever heard btw I don't know how you'll flatten atheism when there is hard evidence for it and Sodom and gamorah are sinners because they literally raped a population of an entire city it is never implied that they are homosexual
@@BMcCosmic
Well, I have a disability. And I have desires, but I don't act on them in committing fornication in my life but does that make me perfect? Far from it. In fact I used to think a lot of Christians at my church were way ahead of me. But I realize the truth that we as a Church of the Body of Christ are equal. God sees the body of Christ as a family, not a dysfunctional family. I went through and still are going through a very dysfunctional family.
I've been physically abused, sexually abused, and being manipulated by my Earthly father. But I have a Heavenly Father that accepts me for who I am in christ. I don't care if I was gay or disability. My Earthly father did not accept who I was and he did not act like a father.
My Earthly father didn't abuse me from any acts. My Earthly father abuse me because he thought I was stupid. If your Earthly father didn't love you, let me tell you the heavenly Father loves you with unconditional love. This is the Father I wanted to please because he loves me unconditionally even though I was different. My Earthly father did not.
I use to be transgender (female to male) for about five years? Maybe longer. At first I didnt wanted to give up that life and I didnt know how to, but when I finally cried to God and said, "I give up this life; change me!" I felt this dark spirit (a dark presence) leave from around me, and after all those years of wanting to be male... I felt normal to be female. I gave glory to God for changing me, but it took about a week or so to fully let go and God took it from me that nasty life.
Still, to this day, I feel fine with being a woman. Glory to God forever! Amen!
does it feel normal to be transphobic now?
@Princess lets hope other homophobics ask for their freedom too then as homophobia is a sin.
@MalcolmAmin Thats because this is not what transphobics do old bean, its a far worse mental disorder.
@@pastorbri it feel amazing to not being gay and trans again. Gay = bad. Bible live in my heart now.
@@pastorbrigay is a sinful choice though. You guys just act in everyway from real life to internet like it is normal thing. Just because you're weak and sinful don't read and care about bible doesn't mean we just like you.
I have a friend who used to be a Christian homosexual. God enabled him to overcome that, and he is now a happily married man with children.
It's a risky thing to do. I once knew a couple with kids, but after I moved away I heard from one of their relatives that they broke up because the guy was actually gay but had been advised to marry a woman on the basis of same-sex relationships being a sin. I've often heard of mixed-orientation marriages that have failed. Some people are bi, though, so I would expect it to work out sometimes.
In Revelations 3:16 "So, because you are lukewarm-neither hot nor cold-I am about to spit you out of my mouth. " You cannot be a fence sitter. Either you take one side
Oooh. Now that's a good one.
@@UnfilteredMedic just a shame homophobics choose the dark side.
@@pastorbri 😆 Typical response. You stain the word and title Pastor by not following God in this.
@@UnfilteredMedic typical homophobe who hates Gods word to support their own satanic homophobic lifestyle choice..... You stain the word and title "christian" by not following God in this.
@@pastorbri You come off as a demon. What you post is what Satan would say
No matter what we were before we were saved, if truly saved we are ''a new creation in Christ Jesus!''
which means homophobics change
yep
pastor brian the Bible must be homophobic to you.
Actually if you can find a quote from Jesus saying anything about being gay, then you can say you're not putting words into Jesus's mouth.
Spicy Whagaian Jesus did not directly say anything about homosexuality. He did not need to, for He was ministering first to the Jews, who were well aware of God's stance on deviating from the opposite-sex context He gave for marriage.
Honestly I believe that if your a Christian you are suppose to be “Christ like”
Tell that to straight Christians thx you
God sees us as Christ like because we are covered by his blood if we believe what he has done on the cross. To be human is fail and reach out to God for strength. We are called to share God's love to demonstrate God's love to others.
I agree and as Jesus never mentioned LGBT issues neither can homophobics
@@beigebiscuit8081 which is how we know homophobia is a sin
@@willwowxdrice642 I'm saying this to all Christians, not just the homosexuals. So the message goes to straight Christians as well.
This was spot on, simple and powerful. I remember hearing another Christian TH-camr saying God doesn't need us to be ourselves, he needs us to live our holiest life. That's stands out to me. God loves us as we are, he's even faithful to the non believer but, God deserves our loyalty.
how is lies spot on? Homophobia is a sin of satanic levels. Don't follow the satanic advice in this video
Thank you for this video. I am gay. Years ago I believed that I could be gay and Christian, just in the manner you so aptly described. This did not last, however, as ultimately I was unable to truly reconcile the gay liffestyle with Christianity. I ended up becoming an atheist, not purely for this reason, but one of many reasons that I won't go into at this time. I listened to so much about being born this way, just being who I am, Jesus never spoke on homosexuality, and even gay churches and such. One thing I always noticed which prevented me from buying into the notion was the simple fact that they were all tap dancing around the issue, distorting facts, and bending over backwards to make it ok within the confines of Christianity. It all seemed very insincere to me and their view on things just did not add up.
In my thirteen years of atheism, I partook in homosexual activity, was a vocal supporter of gay rights and gay marriage, and scoffed at Christianity. During the last few years, I settled down and stopped arguing. Honestly, I looked at the homosexual lifestyle and saw a lot that I did not like. There is so much jealousy, cattiness, and a party atmosphere all of the time. Being rather old fashioned, I looked for something more and could never find it. It always seemed to be sex first, and sexuality was the center of everything rather than merely being one aspect of the person. I could never let go of my hope of meeting a good man and having a real relationship, and thus I ended up feeling like I did not fit in with the gay community. I was even told once that I was too conservative. Well, that is something I can't really change. I speak for no one but myself with this post.
When I finally stopped rebelling and turned back to God, he began working on me in ways that seemed impossible so many years ago. Now, I have learned to give my problems to God rather than trying to fix them on my own in an effort to please God. I prayed about whether I could ever have companionship, and in my heart God answered me and made it clear that He does not want me to live the homosexual lifestyle. He has taken a great bit of the temptations and urges away, but not all. I mean, I know I am still gay. I know that I have no desire to be with women. Yet I no longer chase after the gay lifestyle. I accept this, and in a way that no one can understand, I am fine with it. I know God has a plan for me and I know He continues to work it all out. Temptation is still there at times and there is no expectation of changing that, but I have learned through God to be ok with it. The struggle is gone, as now I see clearly and place my faith in something more than what this Earthly realm can offer.
I know many out there would roll their eyes at me, or feel sorry for me because I am trapped by religion, but those people will never be able to understand what it is to have peace and acceptance about it as I look more to God. I am happy, and the whole gay thing doesn't really cast a spell over me like it once did. God has taken those things and made it bearable. This is something I never thought I would say, but I never thought it because I did not know how to truly leave it in God's hands. THIS is who I am now, and I am thankful to the Lord for it!
Jamie Braswell that was super vulnerable. Thanks for sharing.
@@austincallaghan2606 , thank you for taking the time to read what I had to say.
Now it sounds like you're just a self-hater. What a shame that religion has muddled your mind to the point you can't even love yourself for who you truly are. It's truly sad.
I'm not judging you or anything, but I'm gonna drop truth on you. If you're still gay, you're still rebelling. Allow God to transform you. You want to please God, so be sure to yield to Him. Allow the holy spirit to guide you. When you come to full repentance, you'll know you're being transformed. Right now, you're kidding yourself when you tell us you have turned completely to God but you're still gay. You can't have both.
Can't believe this comment only got SIX likes!
When you were talking about gay people saying " I was born that way", I have always thought if someone was... truly, "born that way", felt attraction to the same sex as long as the remember, felt like they wanted to be the opposite sex than they were born, there entire live. That was different. But when you said, we're all born into sin.. but when we're born again we are a new man... a light went off in me...I was born an addict. ( had to withdrawal from alcohol) I have struggled with addiction as long as I remember... but that didn't give me a ticket to continue being an addict. I was delivered from that desire ( spirit) . Made me think of this is a whole new way, thank you
you was not born an addict, its something u chose to do. The only ones born an addict is if their mother abused something that caused her baby to be the same, but thats still because the mother chose to abuse something........so not the same thing in any way.
pastor brian you are a liar. A demonic troll.
@Frustrated Omegle I think its other peoples business.
@@pastorbri I think that's what she said. She said she had to withdrawal from alcohol as a new born I believe.
@@dewydcb9864 just as homophobics need to withdraw from their hate as a new born.
The truth is offensive and being offensive is becoming a crime.
Yeah, it's sad how people take criticism these days :(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((
explain it to me. Of course, a God doesn't exist and of course the story the church wants to tell is a big joke. But even if god existed and gay men exist, then either God is okay with it or even wants it or he failed. and if he failes so often he can't be a God. problem solved.
@@matthisk4658 God does exist. We chose how we want to live. Just like you chose to follow the law or not, you can chose to follow God's law or not.

Roman's 8: 30 - 47
Truth and Freedom
30 As He was saying these things, many believed in Him. 31 So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed Him, “If you continue in My word, you really are My disciples. 32 You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
33 “We are descendants of Abraham,” they answered Him, “and we have never been enslaved to anyone. How can You say, ‘You will become free’?”
34 Jesus responded, “I assure you: Everyone who commits sin is a slave of sin. 35 A slave does not remain in the household forever, but a son does remain forever. 36 Therefore, if the Son sets you free, you really will be free. 37 I know you are descendants of Abraham, but you are trying to kill Me because My word is not welcome among you. 38 I speak what I have seen in the presence of the Father; therefore, you do what you have heard from your father.”
39 “Our father is Abraham!” they replied.
“If you were Abraham’s children,” Jesus told them, “you would do what Abraham did. 40 But now you are trying to kill Me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. Abraham did not do this! 41 You’re doing what your father does.”
“We weren’t born of sexual immorality,” they said. “We have one Father-God.”
42 Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love Me, because I came from God and I am here. For I didn’t come on My own, but He sent Me. 43 Why don’t you understand what I say? Because you cannot listen to My word. 44 You are of your father the Devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning and has not stood in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he tells a lie, he speaks from his own nature, because he is a liar and the father of liars. 45 Yet because I tell the truth, you do not believe Me. 46 Who among you can convict Me of sin? If I tell the truth, why don’t you believe Me? 47 The one who is from God listens to God’s words. This is why you don’t listen, because you are not from God.”
I pray right now that you will find the truth in Jesus.
I promise that you'll be glad you did. I'm a living testimony of a life that was dark and I thought it was okay. I did what I wanted without a care. But by the Grace of God through my Mother's prayers I surrendered my life to Christ and was born again. I will be Forever grateful to God.
Jesus Loves you!!
@@graciekambino467 Well if you prefer legends, myth and lies over truth then you may believe the shit you can read in the bible. If the bible is true, how can you know koran or tora aren't ? You can't. The bible is just some random dudes telling a story. I can do that as well. Will you believe everything I say?
I agree every Christian should look at their own life before so easily judging anyone. The world is broken and full of sin and temptation. We need to stay in the truth in order to survive as a Christian. God waited for me until I was in my 50's. So many things I regret, but once I accepted Jesus, everything changed for the better.
which is why homophobia is a sin
Keep in mind that we can judge according to God's standards, not our own.
I’ve been having homosexuality feelings since I was young! When I went to high school which was full of other homosexuals i became friends with them and thought it was ok to do the things or feel that way! I’ve went to bars, events and festivals! It wasn’t too long ago I seen the truth and fasted. I also fell back in recently. I told myself you know this isn’t right, I know in my heart I had to stop, repent and turn to GOD. It is not easy but it is worth it for the Lord and yourself!
homophobia isn't right though.
@Pancakes Syrup I KNOW he never said he was homophobic, but homophobia has caused him to feel bad. If u have gay friends u must love them as God loves them, which means u love them AS THEY ARE. How do they feel about ur homophobia?
Stay strong. Can you make some new friends? Man, it's so important to have brothers around you who you can trust. Who want what's best for you. And you have no desire to use you, but just want to see you become holy. And want to see you glorify God.

pastor brian obviously you are a child of Satan because Christ does not tell us to embrace sin, god creates man and woman and sexual perversion is not of god and sexual immorality will keep anyone out of heaven, so homophobia is not real, because we hate sin and love the sinner, as a gay man who has been redeemed by the blood of the lamb understands I am not a child of Satan and therefore cannot be a victim of homophobia because it’s a lie.
I know this is an old clip but it still so relevant and needed. You laid an excellent foundation going into your point. You covered so much in 8 minutes! Thank you for sharing this.

@@pastorbri it's not homophobia to say "You're believing in a lie. This is not a desire you should be making a lifestyle out of. And it's not something you're stuck with. With Jesus you can resist it".
"Godly wisdom rest in the heart of the discerning" (Proverbs 14:33). Many people have worldly wisdom, but only a few have Godly wisdom! Seek Godly wisdom!
Amen! So many are well-versed in culture and what society says, but are seriously lacking Godly wisdom. You could say they have godly wisdom, but not Godly wisdom. You can even see it in the comments here.
sadly homophobics have none of Gods wisdom eh
How many people in hell wish they were judged (uncomfortable truth) before they were judged for all eternity? How many people that God loves that are in hell right now because of sin?
Ontshiametse Otlotleng Kekana you can ask that again 😢😢😢
Good point
yes, bet lots of homophobics in hell wish they had listened, bit late now.
@@pastorbri true
They chose to Sin and ended up where they could only go, Hell...
God can change anyone... You also just have to do your part
I have personally struggled with this sin all of my life however about two months ago I had confessed this to my pastor and asked God for forgiveness of my sin. Since then, I have been going to church more and trying to read my word everyday. Although the struggle may be hard at times I still hold strong to my faith so that way I could continue to fighting the good fight!
timrod94 ask God about it. Research the other side that says homosexuality isn’t a sin. Don’t just go by what your pastor says because he’s only a human just like all of us, talk to God about it. In my experience, the feelings & attraction won’t go away. Will God really dismiss your desire to love the person you want to love? God cares for us, He even cares about your desires. You don’t want to either be single forever or be with someone you don’t want to be with & always have to wonder what if. Pour your heart out to God, He can handle it, God’s love is greater & His love is great enough to accept you however you are.
God knows we all have different struggles with sin & anyone who truely know our Lord jesus completely have their desires changed it is simply to please him & our inner fighting shows God is working in us. I thank him everyday. 18 months ive known our Lord jesus christ he as changed my life & heart so much it blows me away 🙌🙌🙌👏👏👏😃😃
Nicole McP that’s a lie from the pits of hell and just because you want to believe that lie don’t lie to other people who already know the truth... Jesus didn’t die so we live in sin but so we could be free from ungodly desires he is holy God and desires the same from us no matter what your sexual preference is
Timrod94. I beg you in God's name not to listen to Nicole p.
There is no other side that says homosexuality is not a sin. That other side is a carrot dangled by the devil. TIMROD,TIMROD,TIMROD .
I call your name three times. You did the perfect right thing by telling your pastor. And it was the holy spirit that convicted you of the sin John 16 vs 8. Don't let anyone tell you to accept what the holy spirit is convicting you to reject. You may lose him forever but God forbids, that will never happen to you.
And NICOLE P I beg you in the name of God to accept Jesus as your personal Lord and saviour again. Accept his word as the only standard for your living and disbelief any other notion telling you the bible is wrong on homosexuality. It's the voice of the devil
why struggle with how God made you to be?????? Homophobics who should struggle with their sin.....but they embrace it. There is no sin in being gay....sorry there never was.
Don't call evil good and good evil!
Thank you Holy Spirit!
God clearly said it is not God for man to be alone, yet when it comes to people attracted to the same sex, many christians tell them they have to stay single. so that's calling good what God calls not good.
just saying.
Amen!!! EVERYTHING that comes from our Lord is purified, good and usable!
@@MusicalRaichu God created male and female. A man is meant to be with a woman. Don’t lie.
@@jesst1306 You quote the scripture that say "God created male and female" and I agree with that too.
You follow with the statement "man is meant to be with women" which is totally made up. Please tell me where the Bible says that.
Then you accuse me of lying when I'm correcting the lie that has permeated our churches for far too long and has caused incalculable harm. Tell the kids that have gotten kicked out of home that they're lying to their parents that they can't "repent" from a secsual orientation. Tell the broken families where gay men were advised to marry women because "it's God's plan" that they're lying that they can't make it work. Tell the people who took their lives because they were led to believe that God won't accept them and found themselves unable to make themselves "acceptable".
The church's beliefs on this matter have been a total disaster and - get this - they keep changing their beliefs because it simply doesn't "work". first it was being homaseksual was a sin. but then they weren't able to "repent" and ended up suisidel when they tried. so then it's a sinful desire. so life becomes an unbearable struggle. now it's yeah it's a natural variation like science says but God says no so you have to stay single all your life - in direct violation of God's word.
Please do your research and back up your statements and accusations with facts.
and homophobia is evil
I’m a lesbian and I’ve been with my girlfriend for 10 years, and I’ve been so convicted, I want to live for God and not in sin. I love her so much, it hurt so much thinking about life without her, but it hurt to know how much I’m hurting God. I don’t know how to end things… I need help.
Please do not end your relationship. Read Rom 13.8-10 All God's commands are satisfied by loving one another. If you and your partner are in a loving relationship and not doing anything to hurt anyone, then you are keeping ALL God's commands.
This guy's ideas are based on a mistranslation of the Bible. The Bible does NOT say that homoxesuals will not inherit God's kingdom. There wasn't even such a concept as being gay in those days, so how could the Bible have said that?
I recommend this video: th-cam.com/video/ezQjNJUSraY/w-d-xo.html

@@alaszepieniec106 it's not true that you can't. on the contrary, God said "it's not good to be alone". this guy is completely wrong.

The more you grow to love God more. God will help walk you through the process to end the relationship. God will help you through the process to grieve the loss. And God will continue to walk you through the next part of your journey.
Keep in God. God will not abandon you as you walk through the struggles.

It is not the end of the world. Jesus does not want you to struggle with sin. Jesus was in a struggle of wits with Satan in the desert. It was his natures as man and as God that enabled him and provided the strength to fight and to win. We are doing pretty good when we realize our sins and try to be mindful of their effects. God wants us to enjoy the life he was gifted to us. It is not healthy to have an ongoing struggle with sin. You do not need prayers. God has given us all great powers that we do not hone. Try to find a way to be mindful of sin without obsessing. Don't be an obsessive-compulsive Christian. All of us have hands that get a little dirty now and again. That doesn't mean we have to spend 24 hours a day washing them. Live, cherish, and truly experience the life you were gifted.

Throughout the learned eras of the Classical Greeks, the Romans, the Renaissance, the Great Awakening, and now, in the era of applied technology and science, that specific fear is no longer of use. Instead we observe, study, and educate ourselves in this age of discovery and intellectual progress. Unfortunately, I think that some of us still retain the gene responsible for that fear.

Thank you so much for tackling this topic. You did a wonderful job. I never thought on the last part of that "log in eye" scripture. You can judge but you have to get yourself right first. We tend to skip over that part. So, I've learned something about the scriptures and I've been a Christian a long time. These people need to be loved with the love of Jesus. That is the only thing that transforms. Are you a pastor? If I lived in your area I would go to your church!

@ENFORCER hey man just wanted to know what made you think this video was bull?
Hey dude think of it like this
Back when the Bible was written there really weren’t loving homosexual relationships
Back then people were just kinda like ya know I wanna get some of that good man sex and then they dip
Which is not good
It’s the same as some heterosexual dude having the same idea of just kinda like abusing sex and being like ya know
Nowadays there are people who are given the chance to love whoever they want
Not in like a sinful way ya know
From what I’ve come to figure out after being catholic for my whole life is that if u ain’t doing nothing wrong but are loving others God’s gon find u alright
@ENFORCER what made this video bullshit answer the question
Nathanael Wade to be honest, just reading his first comment, it seems that his statement is coming out of hatred, it is clear, since he assumes that if you are a Christian then you are a pervert child abuser.

I'm out and about, so I had to use the captions. Very well done. I've never heard anyone break it down that way. Glory to God
I've struggled with my sexuality for a while. I have been raised Christian my entire life, and I've subtly noticed my attraction towards the same sex grow and grow. It's something I can't control. I have prayed and asked God repeatedly to just give me joy and happiness, cause I felt like I didn't deserve it [since I was having these attractions]. I basically tried to "pray the gay away". It didn't work. Since figuring out my sexuality, I truly believe I have grown closer to God. He has helped me find my true self, and I can say I am proud to be both homosexual and Christian.

I realized, my sinful nature was always going to come up, but I had to remember what the Word said and put it to use. Living by the Spirit does give us self control. The renewal of our minds which happens when we walk with God changes our perspective of how we see life, other people, and OURSELVES. With God, all things are possible.
Francisco Gonzalez i am in this place right now where God is convicting me to fall in love with Him first. I have decided to surrender to him-even my sexuality.
do you still have attraction to men? sexually? If so, you're still homosexual. Homosexuality doesn't really mean lifestyle, practice or action, it means it's an identity for a person who's still attracted to a same-sex. Even you practice it, disregard it, the fact that you find attraction to men, especially sexually, you will still be identified as gay. Because Straight people are identified to be attracted to opposite sex.
Action is a choice. Don't compare homosexuality with attraction to cigarettes, that's a different thing.

pastor brian - I think Christians should be able to show love to those dealing with same sex issues. Part of the problem is the use of secular humanist culturally constructed words like “homophobic” that imply a fear of homosexuality and actually shut down any constructive conversation. All Christians must gently instruct others of the real dangers of same sex behavior. That is not homophobic but rather wise counsel spoken in love.

pastor brian -- homophobia is not real. I will make up word; Murderphobia, or thiefphobia! Christians realize homosexuals have a “heart” condition that bends them to an unnatural desire that God has already stated is an abomination. That’s not homophobic that is rejecting to affirm or condone what is sinful desires and behavior. Christian acknowledge sin is sin and don’t fear being judged for another’s behavior. Fact is homosexuals are the very people that want to force Christians to affirm their gay lifestyle. That is not love that is a denial of God’s plan for humanity. I pray you can recognize your own biased hypocrisy. You attempt to hold others to a standard you don’t believe yourself. Poor sad brah.

Don't forget verse 6 “Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces."
From the comments, I've realized that so many others have experienced the same thing that I have. I've never been homosexual or felt that way in any period of my life but have definitely felt pressured from other people, especially in high school, that made me think certain things were ok just because everyone else was doing it. I always thought that "oh, peer pressure isn't a big deal, I won't be lured into drugs and what not" but the reality is that is isn't only drugs. It's also the fact that people all around you support abortion, women's rights(superiority over men), and encouraged me to hate certain people because everyone else did. And I fell for it. I think back on that and realize how foolish I was. I was most definitely not born again and had the world and it's evil ruling over me(Satan).You really have to be careful how Satan controls you because it's not in ways that you may think are bad, but it's in the ways that you know YOU personally can be controlled. For me that was through feeling better than everyone else because I was "smarter" or for some other reason. And it gives you a good feeling to think that you are better than someone else, but that is exactly what Satan wants from you. To feel superiorieoty of yourself rather than feel compassion for people who are just as much as a sinner as you. I have come to realize that I am wicked at heart, one who has stored up so much wrath of God everytime I have sinned, but also forgiven because of the realization of my evil heart and my need for the Savior Jesus Christ. Look to Christ for salvation, He is the only Way and Truth!!✝️✝️
it is homophobiaa that is the real evil sin here
This was such a great answer! The standard is the same for all of us! Sin is sin..
but not really
homophobia is sin
@Angel Agbettor ironic you think you might be christian saying Gods word is spewing nonsence.....are you a satanist?
I thought you were gonna go the other way at first. THANK YOU for speaking truth! We need more like you 🥰 God bless.
homophobia is not based on truth
Well done brother !! The way you delivered this word was amazing
heres a better one....homophobia is a sin
You are truly a child of God! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
All I got to say is "you cannot have 2 masters"
@Adolf Hitler's Missing Testicle he means, you serve your flesh or you serve God. Can't serve both.
Exactly. God or the world. Not both. You can only please one
Have you ever heard of S&M? You can have more than one master.
Kevin Vorster God should be your only master.
@@Sl-by1ss if he shows himself, still no
Please for my niece Kay she is in the hospital.
Mental breakdown.
@Melanie Janae Thanks so much.

Praise God.
It'll be okay. I'll pray for you.
I brought your dear niece before His mighty throne. He has heard the prayers of His saints. Trust that He will answer according to His will. Blessings
may i ask why? i hope she gets better.
unless she's homophobic like everyone else in this commemt section. then i don't care.
Have you ever studied the translations of the word homosexual through out the different printings of the Bible? 🤷♀️
Do you mean the origins of “Arsenokoitai?”
Scott Smith more, but yes indeed I believe so
I do understand that some do say "boy molesters" instead of homosexuals, and that may be true, but thinking of before Sodom and Gomorrah got destroyed, didn't the men have bad feelings towards other men? They wanted to do sinful things to other men and only for lust, for their pleasures. Therefore, even if those thoughts may be alright, it can lead to nothing but your own wants and not living for God
It may be a moot point. Jesus says clearly that the sexual relationship is one man, one woman, joined in marriage for a life time. Any sexual relationship outside of that is unacceptable. Doesn't matter if it's homosexual, heterosexual, bi-sexual, pan-sexual, fornication, adultery, sodomy, molestation, etc. Jesus keeps it very easy for us to understand what his plan is for our gift of sexuality.
@@archenwolf wasn’t that a story of rape though? Not consensual committed relationships. I don’t know if that’s really comparable🤷♀️
Right on🤙🏽Thank you, Allen Parr 😀
You must be Denzel washington's brother
I just said the same that he look like den
If Denzel Washington taught the bible... this is the image before us... Alright Ok... Ok Alright!!!
I WAS THINKING THE SAME LOL

I think saying "homosexual christian" is a contradiction. Thats like saying "lying Christian" its sin. We should make sin our identity. As someone who has been freed of that lifestyle I was freed because I never truly allowed that to be my identity. My identity was first in Christ
Thank you!!
Same!!!
I’ve heard older Rabis agree with me that homosexuality is all good, he was a really cool, smart, and open minded person. Obviously not Christian but yeah, love is love
Flesh and Blood did not reveal this to you. Praise God for simplicity and clarity. Remain Blessed
@@ali773n Christians don't go by the old testament anymore, it's done away with. But even if it were not, every place in the bible that seems to speak against homosexuality did not say that in the original hebrew, Aramaic and Greek texts the bible was originally written in. It spoke of pedophilia. Not being gay. Plus having same sex attraction feelings is being gay, so you can be gay(have gay feelings) and be a christian.
Here are some bible scholars who speak on this issue: one would be Teresa j hornsby, Ellen T. Armour, Michael Joseph Brown, Sean D. Burke, Heidi Epstein, Deryn Guest, Jione Havea, Teresa J. Hornsby, Lynn R. Huber, S. Tamar Kamionkowski, Joseph A. Marchal, Jeremy Punt, Erin Runions, Ken Stone, Gillian Townsley, Jay Twomey, and Manuel Villalobos.
Plus people say keep the ten commandments but Which 10? The 10 in exodus 20 that broke or exodus 34 that made it into the ark and included the feast days? And why did God say his feasts days and Sabbath are forever but we say they are done away with?
I guess a better question is, can someone be saved and yet at the same time continue living the homosexual lifestyle? "Shall we continue in sin so that Grace may multiply? Paul says absolutely not! How can we who died to sin still live in it?- Rom 6:1-2
Amen.
You penned that perfectly. Love it
I guess an EVEN better question is, can someone be saved and yet at the same time continue living the homophobic lifestyle? ANSWER OBVIOUSLY IS NO.
@@pastorbri You call yourself a Pastor, show me where the Biblical text supports your sin of homosexuality. It doesn't, ....so how are you a Pastor if you are defending homosexuality? Again look at what God says about homosexuality-1 Corinthians 6:9-10 (NASB95): Or 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 effeminate, nor homosexuals,
10 nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God. -Leviticus 18:22 (NASB95): You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination. Are you willing to call God a homophobe? You are at odds against the Biblical text therefore at odds with God.
@@TH-camhatesconservativespeech You call yourself a Christian????? Mmmmm show me where the Biblical text supports your sin of homophobia being a good and holy thing. It doesn't, ....so how are you a Cif youhristian are defending homophobia? Look how u abuse Gods word by using a modern bible for 1 cor 6;9 as ONLY modern bibles slyly slip in the word homosexual which as a word did not exist in Pauls day, in fact as a word it never existed till 1869 so it seems ur ok with adding to Gods word also so u support 2 sins......Are you willing to call God a pro hater and pro abuser? You are at odds against the Biblical text therefore at odds with God. Assume you hate God for some reason????? You even list levitical law which God himself said almost 40 times is a dead lkaw so Gods word is not enough for you?????? Have you always thought of God as a liar????
I used to be bisexual, then one night i felt a conviction of my sins. i experienced true godly sorrow for the life i lived. It's absolutely true, when i was reborn in christ, i conquered the sins that i used to struggle with.
I've also made it a goal to stop cussing, to live a christ like life as much as i can, and i made it a goal to not be a lukewarm follower in christ.
you are just straight dude
Thank you, Denzel Washington, for posting this video.
I immediately thought the same thing.
Lol!
He does!! 😂
That's what I thought,,,he reminds me of Denzal Washington,,,he looks like him,,I'm not alone that think so.....😀
LMAO 💀
You hit the nail on the head, when you said that we are all born a certain way in regards to sin, but that's why we have to be "Born again!"
so homophobics are not born again then.
I TY for this. You didnt far too much beyond what I already knew but I will continue carry my cross as I pass up all you flesh that comes my way
Arguably, the most sensible, accurate discourses on this subject on TH-cam, indeed, on Earth! Let's get in touch.
First off, bravo to you for being brave enough to touch on such a subject.
I'm still processing your video....because it was very through and very insightful and I can't/won't dismiss it. But...🤔...I'm still processing
well don't fall for the homophobic lifestyle as u think on these lies.
@@pastorbri It's not a lie it's the truth, a difficult truth for some but truth is truth.
@@yan24to nope homophobia is based on a lie.....THAT is the truth......might be difficult for u but its still a truth.
The main issue here is that one can not serve two masters. That is the biggest issue concerning Homosexuality. Many gays verbally profess to be a Christian, serving God, but they're fruits give a different testimony. They're fruits proclaim that they are serving Lucifer. So NO, I do not believe one whom professes to be Gay can also be Christian. It's an OXYMORON. You can't be both. Your either a born again Christian, or your a non-saved Homosexual.
Jeffrey Sasquatch great answer
Amen
I wish he would've said it like that
Jeffrey Sasquatch I completely agree. A homosexual should no longer consider themselves as such once they put on the new man. Even if they have slip ups, or the enemy tries to attack their mind. They are no longer a homosexual. There's a lot of compromise these days', not saying the guy in the video's doing that, it's just people I feel are afraid to be outspoken on this as it pertains to the Word. I would be pretty offended if people said I'm a drunkard, because of who I used to be. Even if I'm tempted to drink like that again, I am no longer a drunkard. These labels are silly. One's either Christian or not.
Agree, you cannot identify yourself as a homosexual and live a Christian lifestyle at the same time. I think that some people may struggle with thoughts of homosexuality just as others struggle with porn, but living and identifying with the group is not right just like living as a pornstar isnt right
I love the way that you explain things your speech is clear, and very understandable you got me as one of your fans thanks big bro❤
Hi sister's and brother's in Christ. I am so grateful since i accepted Jesus as my personal Lord and savior. I've been part of LGBTQ before but now I'm proud to say I'm straight girl. 💛💛
so bisexual really?
@Wayne I know, I laugh at uneducated homophobia also.
I love your brave honesty to teach and impart truth. Great video.
not really honesty though u know.
Thank you for the wisdom especially on the "Born this way" statement. I think that was a very helpful way to bring clarity and even hope into conversations.
homophobics were not born that way, its a lifestyle they choose with pride.
@@pastorbri Please, I think we understand.
@@brandynlovett4054 ah u agree homophbobia is a lifestyle choice then!
@@Yue4me LOL WHAT???? HA HA U believe that? Homophobia is natural, Oh my......ha ha ha........then tell me, since we know homosexuality like all other sexualities exist in all mammals, shows its natural but only 1 human suffers homophobia, the human, means thats unatural......sorry.
But you a person who likes the Homophobic lifestyle is an abomination because killing someone else genes and destroy their life by in the long run. it's a work of Satan who always search and destroy . making them confused and believing a lie.
YOU NEED TO REPENT MATE! FAST!!!!!
@@Yue4me no answer eh.
Thank you for the excellent explanation!
I love how you handled this with love & truth. Keto up the good work & God bless you. I believe I'll go on & subscribe, lol!
homophobics do not know what love is though or truth.
Your name is not Allen. Your name is Denzel Washington.
I'm done.
i thought I was the only one thinking that =-O
I was waiting for this comment 😂😂😂
Wait. What?!!! That's not the name???!! =-O
@@cherishn6008 u guys srs? =-O
My oh my...this is so far and way better explained than many i have listened to. Thanx bro, God bless
now read the bible to see this is wrong info.
u need to hear more then
Excellent discourse. Really loving, honest and definitely Biblical. Where have you been 😊!??
Brother ,,,I'm so happy I've found you because I totally agree with everything you say ....love seeing your videos !!! Keep them coming ,,,,
ya do know homophobia is a sin though?
I love how compact he is with the information and gets right to the issue
One thing is for sure, with God all things are possible once you believe in Him. He is with you, and i know i'm sure of that.
I believed in Him. I pray everyday. I even went to Catholic school twice and did all the religious stuff that my schools told us to do. Went to church every Sunday and helped my mother in church service. I hated myself for being gay for years and I did not believe that I'm attracted to same-sex. I'm now 30 and still gay and struggling to find attraction to women.
Once you believe in him and change your life and live your sinful life he will be with you
@@nike-pv3df i think it might be time to consider accepting atheisim or at least accepting that you are gay. I know you want to belive, but the truth is, you can never change who you are attracted to.
@@hoperichcorn4559 Live your sinful life?? Please tells me that was a typo!
