My daughter is a Lesbian - I happen to believe, that is the way God made her.

Her choices seem to be, to carry on living in a same sex relationship, live celibate, or hell as may right wing Churches, would like you to believe waving their Bibles.
Your views please.

how to reach them
by: Anonymous

I am experiencing this with a family member of my own, but how can you reach them if they do not think what they are doing is wrong? I have distanced myself from this person because I'm at a loss but I do realize that alienating them can only make things worse. What do I do?

I've spent most of my life as a lesbian. But it was a costly journey for me. Full of sadness and sorrow...deep sorrow. But by God's Mercy, he has set me free and called me out to be separate. I must say when a prostitue turns her life around, people no longer call her a prostitue but saved. My personal experience has been this...Although I have given my life totally to the Lord, People still call me a lesbian. Especially Christians. They are the worst. I have to ask God why do they keep calling me that when I have given myself to you? God says, I did not come to condemn the world but to save it. Let us live in Gods example and stop condemning the "HOMOSEXUALs" and start showing them God's love. Jesus said let him without sin cast the first stone. No one could throw the stone. My personal journey with Jesus is between me and Him. Satan keeps using people in my life to remind me of my past to shame me. However, Jesus died to set me free from sin. Please just love...that is what Jesus commanded.

I am not particularly religious and I am Jewish, not Christian, but I believe God loves everyone and He does not care about His people's sexual orientation. Homosexuality was not mentioned in the bible and therefore, God does not hate homosexuals or homosexuality.

God Loves You Daughter (and Lesbians) But Hates Lesbianism
by: Jude

I am sure my comment title kind of sums up all I would say. You daughter has made a wrong choice (pleas see Romans 1:18-end). God does hate homosexuality but he does not hate his created people. He loves them. That is why He gave all He has (Jesus) so He can have us all.

However, He gave us Jesus as a GIFT, not as a MUST. It's now up to us to accept/receive the GIFT, and then receive ETERNAL LIFE.

Anytime you see or call your daughter, please tell her of the love of God for her. Now, in view of God's love & mercy, she must not continue to show contempt for the riches of His kindness, forbearance and patience. She must realize that God’s kindness is intended to lead her to repentance (Romans 2:4).

God Bless You.

God loves everyone
by: Anonymous

The truth is God loves everyone.
He love you and he loves your daughter.
God has a plan for everyone, and I personally don't believe that God makes people homosexual but that is her choice to make.
Pray to God for him to guide her and tell her that you love her no matter what. As love is the most important thing in all the world. Rememeber that she has to choose her own path and will be brought before God, where he will judge her not you or me.
Remain faithful to Almighty and remeber that there is nothing more important that love.
I love you and wish you and your daughter the very best :)

I believe that your daughter has had an encounter with someone or something that has taken her self worth away from her. There are people groups that despise God and His teachings and they draw people into their ranks by making them feel that they can't live without them or their ways.

Sounds so near the mark: and then if I was to add between her mother and female partner, she is, been/has been fully abusuded mentally. That just makes me sound bitter and resentful against my ex wife.

GODS THE WAY
by: Anonymous

YES I WOULD LIKE TO COMMENT ON THIS ISSUE.

FOR A LONG I WAS WITH MY THEN GIRLFRIEND (NOW MY WIFE) BUT I WAS DATING MEN ALSO. THE MEN WOULD TELL ME "OH GOD MADE US THIS WAY". FOR A LONG TIME I CONTINUED ON WITH IT.

I KNOW GOD MADE MAN AND WOMAN NOT THE SAME SEX. I STRUGGLED WITH THAT LIFESTYLE FOR SOMETIME.

NOW I KNOW IT WAS THE DEVIL BRING MY PAST UP TO MY MIND - I'M MARRIED NOW BUT HE BRINGS MY PAST UP --

SO ANY ONE THINKS THAT THEY WERE MADE HOMOSEXUAL READ YOUR BIBLE -- PLZ CAUSE GOD DID NOT MAKE U THAT WAY

Your Daughter
by: Anonymous

i don't for one minute think that God created your daughter to be homosexual or cellibate. This is not part of his plan. In fact this totally goes against God's teachings and plans for our lives. I believe that your daughter has had an encounter with someone or something that has taken her self worth away from her. There are people groups that despise God and His teachings and they draw people into their ranks by making them feel that they can't live without them or their ways. Your daughter needs to come to Jesus and ask forgiveness and ask Jesus into her life and become one of His children and let real love fill her life. I would think that maybe you should approach her with the gospel. This may be very difficult at first, but if you bathe your efforts in prayer and direction from God and ask Him to touch her heart and make her ready to hear you, you may be able to reach her. She just needs to feel loved and protected. I know that only God's love is the perfect love and only through Jesus can we experience the total awesomeness of His love and forgiveness.

Homosexuality in the Bible Part 2
by: Ameerah

Answer Continued (ran out of room)...

If we continue on with that same scripture from where we left off, we see a perfect descriptions of what today's society is beginning to look like...

"They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless. Although they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them." (Romans 1:29-32 NIV)

So, the next question becomes, what can someone, like your daughter who is under the bondage of homosexual, do?

I personally know of many people that God has set free from homosexuality, and bi-sexuality as well. Like any bondage, if we are willing to admit that it is not God's will and humble ourselves before Him instead of thinking that our way of doing things is right and we have no way of changing (which is what the devil wants us to believe), God can break those things off of us with His love and guidance.

So, your daughter's only only options are not to live as a lesbian or to be celibate. If she is willing to take herself before the Lord and humble herself (which many find it hard to do in our current self-righteous society who thinks they can do no wrong - if it feels right no one can tell me it isn't mentality is running rampant) He has the power to change her if she is willing to change. But, she has to be willing which many homosexuals are not. There has been a certain kind of arrogance that has developed with many people who are bound under the yoke of homosexuality, and they almost wear their sin like a badge of honor. For many, they don't want to give it up because they believe that is who they are and they don't want anyone to tell them any different. But, that is not who God made her to be, and she can still be the person she was created as. It will not be easy, and she can not do it alone - [Only God can do it for her!] That is very important to note because only God can free someone from this kind of bondage. Anyone who tries to stop on their own will fail and begin buying into the lie that there is just no use.

I pray that I answered your question.

God Bless!

Homosexuality in the Bible Part 1
by: Ameerah

I know that this is a question that is close to your heart, so I want to take care in answering you. I am not one of those hate filled people who does not have one ounce of God's love running through their hearts. I believe in using God's love to draw people closer to Him, because once they get into that relationship with Him, His Holy Spirit will convict them of their wrong doing - that's Biblical.

But, I also don't believe in lying to people and trying to make them feel better about what the Bible says is bondage to sin. Now, when I say bondage, before each of us comes to God, we are usually under some type of bondage or spiritual addiction. Whether it be to pornography, fornication, alcohol, or whatever, we usually have our secret sins. The issue is that, for some reason, many people in the church have decided to make homosexuality out to be so much worse than all of the other bondages that people come to the Lord with. But, to God, bondage is bondage and sin is sin. He is strong enough to set each of us free from it if we are willing to humble ourselves and recognize that we really need Him (the One who loves us more and knows us better that anyone else).

I want to walk you through this rather long scripture, because it really tells us a lot about why some people are bound under the yoke of homosexuality.

"Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. [They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things] rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.
[Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.]

Furthermore, [since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. They have become filled with every kind of wickedness], evil, greed and depravity."(Romans 1:24-29 NIV)

Homosexuality is not from God. God did not make your daughter gay any more than He made someone else to be under any other kind of bondage to sin. Homosexuality is what happens in the absence of God. It is what happens to a country when, as a whole, they decide to choose to more worship (focus ones thoughts and love towards) themselves and the works of their own hands more than God. When that happens, God removes His hand of protection from them and they are vulnerable to all types of evil.
