I was converted to Christ from homosexuality 30 years ago. Loneliness and isolation is the worse companionship. I am glad to listen this and realize I'm not alone.
If you were an immoral gay, then realize that being born gay doesn't automatically mean that all gays live immoral lives. I am not an immoral gay, but still suffered from the kind of alienation that gay people feel from heterosexual society. You cannot be "converted to Christ from homosexuality" because you cannot take your sexual orientation off "like a coat." Yes, it is possible to convert from immorality to Christ, but gay people were created by God the way they are and cannot take their sexual orientation off "like a coat."
Sorry!!! You cannot be converted out of your homosexuality! You are born gay, period ! Yes, conversion from a sinful gay lifestyle is what Christ is all about! The homosexual problem in America is that gays congregate in parts of the city (SF) where their only contact is with other gay people. Of course, sex is going to be exaggerated! Christianity is all about charity and helping the poor and downtrodden and real Christian people should interact with each other outside of sexual preferences.
So, a turning point in my life as a gay Christian came when I realised that being born this way or not, has no consequence - born AGAIN, has consequences. I don't believe in 'conversion therapy' or the 'ex-gay' groups, but that's a matter of opinion. Rather, what I have started (this is a new journey for me) to find, is that there is an immense challenge, but also a reward to be found in celibacy. I know this isn't a solution for everyone, and for those who can't take it on, there is a different journey to divinity for them - but all things are possible, ALL things, not some things. Part of the problem with some Christians is their incessant need to just 'throw scripture' at people as if it's a magic spell from a Harry Potter book. Scripture without love, respect, context or compassion - is just words. If yours is not to minister to an LGBT person - then don't, but you could be the link to someone who can. LGBT people feel as natural and normal being themselves as anyone else does feeling themselves. I focus now (try to, I'm a work in progress) on my identity in Christ and THAT is the identity I want to know more about - who is THAT guy. So if anyone is battling with this, just remember that - keep your eyes, your heart and your prayers focused on Christ, not the world. What your 'label' is - really doesn't matter. Just my two cents ;) Thank you for this chat, super helpful.
Dr Yuan is betraying gay people by acting as if being gay is a choice. It isn't a choice and you cannot take it off like a coat. Gay people around the age of 13 come to the awareness that they have same-sex attractions. Yes, one can not act on this or not, but the reality is that once a gay, always a gay. Churches should not be in the market of forcing people to reject their true identity. Yes, praise the Lord who accepts me for the person that I am: gay! He would never expect me to reject who I am!

@@levkamenev3904 Thank you, Lev for your understanding. Being an 85 year old gay, I finally am emphatic about what I say: God is diverse and creates a total rainbow of people. Some are straight.

Every one should know and understand the power of God. Nothing is impossible for him. In fact, he specializes in "impossible." "I'm possible," says he.
22:52 "Treat them well." 1st step in opening a door for conversation. Thank you Christopher Yuan! There's enough Pharisees out there who are or have shut doors either out of ignorance or plain hate.
Beware of false doctrines, read the holy Bible and believe in Jesus Christ.. let the holy spirit guides you, homosexual transgender, gay, lesbian, all this things come from satan, don't believe this and that teaching, people will mistreat you will and lead you to hell..
I do find it interesting that homosexual is NOT in the king james version. If the people back then viewed having sex with the same gender as power or apart of worshipping idols instead of something they have always been attracted to since adolescents how can that be the same?? One is more of an abuse or idol worship situation versus something that people wrestle with and try to pray away and change...even thoughts of suicide...thats serious!!
What happened to the audio for this presentation? The voice or sound level is so low that it's impossible to hear. Why not correct it and upload it again.
Skin colour is also a spectrum. I suppose Yuan would suggest we shouldn't say we are black or white because techincally those labels don't help, we are all just shades of brown?? I get what he's saying and sexuality is a spectrum. Most people fit nicely it seems within the two sides generally. But just because it's a spectrum (like skin colour) doesn't mean it's inaccurate to say "I'm straight" --- can we PLEASE just be honest with reality in this one and say for the majority of straight people in the world, it's not helpful to conceive of yourself as someone who is fluidly on a spectrum so therefore they can't define themselves as "straight" -- like, for most people, it is most accurate and helpful just to say they are straight. That's not going to change. The same is for gay and bi people. Also, when this guy says "I have opposite sex attraction feelings and it doesn't make being a Christian any easier" -- and then they laugh. Firstly, when this guy says this it just shows that he doesn't really understand what he's talking about. Of COURSE it makes being a Christian easier. This is undeniable. Why is this, because yes you have to say not to lust and sexual activity that is sinful, but as a straight Christian, you have the permission and space (and celebration) to turn those feelings into something life-giving that your heart craves: companionship, sexual love expressed in a healthy way, family, romantic love, etc. You have a giant YES for your sexuality, one that is celebrated. It's not easy. There's still temptation. Of course you say no to things, but get to say YES to something: marriage and love and companionship. Christians with same sex attraction don't get to have this YES. They never get any space or permission to actually wisely steward their sexuality in a way that might bring life. They have to kill their sexuality and desire for love for the rest of their lives ... and they will die alone. Please please please, straight Christians, don't say that the plight is equal. Does being straight make it easier to be a Christian. 10000% yes. "we all need to die to self" as Yuan says. This is true. But for the straight Christian, they die to their lust but also get marriage and companionship and romantic love, for the gay Christian, they die to their lust and love and sexuality and there's nothing afterwards. It just ends there. Death.
I have lived celibate my whole life. It was a bit easier for me due to Medical problems that make me tired and want to be alone. But it has been a wonderful life with my single friends. I also have freedom to go and do wherever I want. I hope you find some friends that make your life fulfilling
Notice he never mention Sodom and gomorah? That's where the answer is......You believe him? GOD got people sleeping under a bridge that can do a better job than him?
Thank you Christopher. I am a Catholic and agree with your beautiful message. Jesus is The Way, The Truth and The Life. Please keep my dear niece in prayer. May God continue to bless you and your ministry.
He is an excellent talker, loves being centre stage, is totally judgmental hiding behind a captive audience of shared faith. Behold the religious narcisst. Give me a genuine person any day
Question: It says in the bible that a woman that wears a red dress must be stoned to death. That law is over 2000 years old. Being that, wearing a red dress had a different meaning then, is it still relevant today..? Should women that wear red dress's be stoned to death. Or has the meaning in the bible changed..?
Rob K ???verse reference? But to answer your question generally, a lot of the specific laws in the old testament was given to the nation of Israel, the nation that was meant to represent God. The Christian church aren't supposed to carry out the punishments. (eg don't eat split hoove animals, don't work on Sabbath or be stoned) However, a lot of the ten commandments have been repeated in the new testament and those Christians should still keep. Lastly, We are saved not by keeping the law but by putting faith in Jesus
You're stupid on purpose.Willful ignorance because you are too lazy to understand what you are talking about is truly just stupid.Your statement is WHY the word stupid was invented.Grow up,Rob.
Why does membership in a church dictate our identity? To say that I am not gay; I am not straight; I am a follower of Jesus Christ: is actually just "sucking up" to homophobic Christian denominations that have the wrong concepts about gay people. Who needs to broadcast their church membership? Meanwhile, Jesus has told us that "saying is not doing." If you are homophobic, you are not a true Christian and are not living Christ's acceptance of all peoples. It is the Pharisee who parades his membership in a particular church in front of other Christians and we know what Jesus thought of Pharisees. Dr. Yuan, you are a Pharisee. I would have thought that you were intellectual enough to figure out the fact that many denominations are homophobic. To say that "I am not gay. I am not straight. I am a follower of Christ." is to play into the homophobia that is out there. You are "sucking up" to unChristlike people and in the process you are betraying what you really know about being gay.
Church membership and being a Christian aren't the same. True Christianity means receiving Jesus as Lord and Savior and talking to him and following him daily

Wow... "Don;t trust your feelings or your thoughts." (at 21:50) That's one of the most messed up ways of religious thought, in my opinion. Faith seems to me like a dissociative (sic) drug. I did that roller coaster for over ten years before I decided to go back to being myself and trusting my own instincts. Listening to this stuff reminds me how awful it all was.

@@franciskhoury4288 Hello Francis, I share with you one of my favourite sayings: The heart of the problem is the problem of the heart. I share with you one of my favourite videos teaching about Jesus living fully in our heart : th-cam.com/video/q4MaTzPTiF4/w-d-xo.html The teaching blessed me greatly. I hope you will be blessed by it too. .
Speaking to Christians: No matter what, the world will hate us, trying to have a relationship with the world and going to even a regular party is like going into a lions den. So going to a samesex wedding wether a only a reception should be something inspired by the Holy Spirit. I agree with him in the fact that we are all fallen, we all have our struggle BUT they did not mention deliverance at all. Yes it’s God that changes people, but how can you have a ministry and not mention how God made you free? We should be going from glory to glory, not struggle in the same temptation for a lifetime. That implies no growth. If you’re called and chosen by God, there should be growth and freedom.
P.S. I do thank the Lord for a testimony like Dr. Yuang, it’s amazing that he wants to please the Lord and the courage he must face everyday to be honest about his weaknesses and temptations! But he can be so much more effective WHEN he’s truly filled with the anointing of the Holy Spirit and is free indeed... God bless him!
I still think he's free even if he feels temptation. The thing about temptation is you can fully shut it out, you can even minimize it arising in the first place. Then there is no inhibiting to how you function really. There can be a lot of growth even while the temptation is still arising or "comming to you" every now and again. It doesn't have to be the same as bondage. Think of this: opposite sex attraction isn't a bondage even if a person decides to stay single for life. However it can be very debilitating if people let it in over and over again, and if they yield to it. Then it becomes a bondage. So same sex attraction can be a bondage but also not in the same way. That's what I think anyway.
I do think it's good that he's being transparent because God knows it all anyway and it can help someone with the struggle they are having. We all have our own walk with the Lord, so hopefully he's not justifying and instead sharing the truth so he's not causing others to stumble.
He is knowledgeable about what God says in the Bible wish is our light our source of the Truth we need to speak with Love Respect and truth and God will do the rest. But we need to be FREE from atractions every day temptation is normal for a human being. But if are in Christ you are a new creature property of the Holy Spirit. Now you can't call gay christian? Without relationship? can't be Like that. JESUS SET US FREE! piriot. we no longer are in the same life. and continuing have same sex attraction? Read book of Romans or book of Corinthians. God bless you all 📖✝️💗🙂👍
I am afraid your message is that the one in ten people that are born gay were not created by God. Yes, one can choose to be a member of a particular faith, but one cannot choose their sexuality. You are born straight or gay and there is nothing you can do to change this. Yes, one can choose to live an immoral or a moral life, but one cannot choose their sexuality. It is obvious you are ignorant and, worst of all, are dictating falsehoods.
I fundamentally disagree with your distinction between sex and gender, they are just synonyms but sex has become icky sounding to society these days. I will yield that gender-identity is not the same as gender, but fits what you are saying gender is.
He means to be Repetive of long duration thonging In ways unatural, looking at her with Preverson? Women made for us to admire, but not too the level of Preverson!
Ya, I’m not going to give up on a committed relationship just because a 2000 year old book says it’s immoral. You’re free to do so, and that’s your right, but it’s also my right to say you’re an idiot for doing so.
He did think for himself before he was a Christian and that is what got him so messed up in his life. He has way more freedom and has repaired his relationship with his parents because of Christ.
Yahweh is not real. The Bible is a book written and inspired by men. You guys have been raised in a culture to think of the Bible has a sacred holy book. But it is not. Overcome this feeling that the Bible is something you need to conform to.
Michael Peele same tired response to theism, why don't you try a little harder or better yet open your eyes to the truth in Jesus Christ? I know youre not ignorant
Then convince me. Give me evidence that proves that a man named Jesus is the MIND that created our universe. If you say, because the Bible tells me so, I can just easily make the assertion that magical pixies created the universe and based on the same quality of evidence that you have for Jesus, you could not refute my claim. I'm not ignorant, but it seems you are, or you are willfully delusional.
Okay . If you feel that way about the Bible , are you bold enough to apply your statement to all other religions as well - Islam , Buddhism , Hinduism , Mormonism , etc. or just Christianity ?
I was converted to Christ from homosexuality 30 years ago. Loneliness and isolation is the worse companionship. I am glad to listen this and realize I'm not alone.

You're really saying that a man shouldn't kiss his girlfriend before they're married? That's a pretty fringe idea.
Joshua Pitman that was about a married woman kissing someone who isn’t her husband.
Speaking to Christians: No matter what, the world will hate us, trying to have a relationship with the world and going to even a regular party is like going into a lions den. So going to a samesex wedding wether a only a reception should be something inspired by the Holy Spirit. I agree with him in the fact that we are all fallen, we all have our struggle BUT they did not mention deliverance at all. Yes it’s God that changes people, but how can you have a ministry and not mention how God made you free? We should be going from glory to glory, not struggle in the same temptation for a lifetime. That implies no growth. If you’re called and chosen by God, there should be growth and freedom.
P.S. I do thank the Lord for a testimony like Dr. Yuang, it’s amazing that he wants to please the Lord and the courage he must face everyday to be honest about his weaknesses and temptations! But he can be so much more effective WHEN he’s truly filled with the anointing of the Holy Spirit and is free indeed... God bless him!
I still think he's free even if he feels temptation. The thing about temptation is you can fully shut it out, you can even minimize it arising in the first place. Then there is no inhibiting to how you function really. There can be a lot of growth even while the temptation is still arising or "comming to you" every now and again. It doesn't have to be the same as bondage. Think of this: opposite sex attraction isn't a bondage even if a person decides to stay single for life. However it can be very debilitating if people let it in over and over again, and if they yield to it. Then it becomes a bondage. So same sex attraction can be a bondage but also not in the same way. That's what I think anyway.
You probably won’t see much transformation and deliverance because if there is a god, he doesn’t change people’s sexual orientation.
Amen.
I do think it's good that he's being transparent because God knows it all anyway and it can help someone with the struggle they are having. We all have our own walk with the Lord, so hopefully he's not justifying and instead sharing the truth so he's not causing others to stumble.
These comments in here are so mean… omg
Kissing is not a sin omg
He means if a men is married and kiss another is a sin
Kissing is an action of the heart. That is what God looks at. Its in the bible
He said kissing someone else's wife
This guy is really not answering the question?
Agreed
the arguments of this guy are all basically all based on christianity cmon! i cant take him seriously
Do more research and find out if christianity is true. You want to live a life based on truth. Ask God to tell you what is true
AMEN !!!!!
He is knowledgeable about what God says in the Bible wish is our light our source of the Truth we need to speak with Love Respect and truth and God will do the rest. But we need to be FREE from atractions every day temptation is normal for a human being. But if are in Christ you are a new creature property of the Holy Spirit. Now you can't call gay christian? Without relationship? can't be Like that. JESUS SET US FREE! piriot. we no longer are in the same life. and continuing have same sex attraction? Read book of Romans or book of Corinthians.
God bless you all 📖✝️💗🙂👍
I am afraid your message is that the one in ten people that are born gay were not created by God.
Yes, one can choose to be a member of a particular faith, but one cannot choose their sexuality.
You are born straight or gay and there is nothing you can do to change this.
Yes, one can choose to live an immoral or a moral life, but one cannot choose their sexuality.
It is obvious you are ignorant and, worst of all, are dictating falsehoods.
I fundamentally disagree with your distinction between sex and gender, they are just synonyms but sex has become icky sounding to society these days. I will yield that gender-identity is not the same as gender, but fits what you are saying gender is.
woah. this blew me away.
Follow Jesus and take up your cross and die daily please learn of him
He means to be Repetive of long duration thonging In ways unatural, looking at her with Preverson? Women made for us to admire, but not too the level of Preverson!
The third question was a stupid question

Ya, I’m not going to give up on a committed relationship just because a 2000 year old book says it’s immoral.
You’re free to do so, and that’s your right, but it’s also my right to say you’re an idiot for doing so.
Repent

Nah I’m good. I’d rather take my boyfriends 8 incher, than apologize to a deity that may or may not exist.
B K stop being a pervert
C Weed
I’ll stop having amazing gay sex when you admit god isn’t real, and deconvert from Christianity.
@@BK-qx6pl repent you still have time
Maybe it's time to stop worshiping a book and think for yourself.

He did think for himself before he was a Christian and that is what got him so messed up in his life. He has way more freedom and has repaired his relationship with his parents because of Christ.
Are you also skeptical about atheism?
The heart is deceitful above ( more than) all things and desperately wicked. Who can know it?
Yahweh is not real. The Bible is a book written and inspired by men. You guys have been raised in a culture to think of the Bible has a sacred holy book. But it is not. Overcome this feeling that the Bible is something you need to conform to.
Michael Peele same tired response to theism, why don't you try a little harder or better yet open your eyes to the truth in Jesus Christ? I know youre not ignorant
Then convince me. Give me evidence that proves that a man named Jesus is the MIND that created our universe. If you say, because the Bible tells me so, I can just easily make the assertion that magical pixies created the universe and based on the same quality of evidence that you have for Jesus, you could not refute my claim. I'm not ignorant, but it seems you are, or you are willfully delusional.
good argument... never occurred to me to use my brain. let me change my entire life because of a 4 sentence youtube comment
Then convince me that the Bible is a book written a powerful mind that created our universe.
Okay . If you feel that way about the Bible , are you bold enough to apply your statement to all other religions as well - Islam , Buddhism , Hinduism , Mormonism , etc. or just Christianity ?
