2.3K opinions shared on Religion & Spirituality topic. I’m an atheist. However, your pastor is at least consistent with the content of his scripture. If one was to properly preach the “word of god” from a Christian perspective in regard to modern times, the homosexuals are almost public enemy number 1.
But yes, by all means leave the church. Why are you there anyway? You actually believe that stuff for real?

Asker+1 yExactly this is why a lot of us in the LGBTQ keeps these people put because we know how they are !

+1 yNo it's a church, with all honesty if they aren't against it, they are twisting the word of God, we shouldn't judge but we shouldn't support it either, I'd say pray to God and ask for guidance cause God still loves you, no matter the sexuality.

Asker+1 yI'm spiritual and don't follow religious doctrines , but at the same time I don't call myself a Christian just a believer in God
Asker+1 yMy sexuality is who I am and can't change that nor who I'm attracted too
- +1 y
I understand that, I think the reason it's this way is cause you focus too much on "religious doctrines" following the word of God improves your life, you are looking it as religious doctrines when you should be seeing it as guidance, what if I told you that if you followed the word of God and the guidance that your sexuality will change, would you believe me? It won't be a choice, it will just change, you'll notice the change, not forcing you or anything, it just fades away, you are viewing it as a "I'm this way and I gotta be this way" if this happened and all it took was for you to follow the words of God, would you accept it or reject it?
Asker+1 yI don't support the patriach and free from all that 💯
- +1 y
Well okay, God is always there, I hope one day you choose to follow, blesses anon 💯🤝
Asker+1 yI have a relationship with the creator and accept him but left religion a long time ago
Asker+1 yI believe love has no sexuality- man & man woman & woman man & woman- has no color or etc
- +1 y
Well it's not really about the love itself anon it's about how it's against the natural creation of a man and a woman, it was designed by God that way and homosexuality goes against that, it's why God is against it, we are suppose to bring life to the world and homosexuality also prevents that, love can come in many colors but love with the same gender can be expressed through friendship as well, a romantic love was designed to be between a man and a woman, it's why the natural design to new life is the seed of a man and the egg of a woman, God loves you either way and thats a promise but the reason it's against the word of God isn't because you are different, it's simply only cause it's against the natural design of what God created it to be, his love for you won't change but his guidance isn't there to hurt you, it's to help you; even if the guidance can be hard to swallow, I myself had to swallow a lot of things I didn't want too but I have to change and even tho I didn't see the better in it, following that guidance blindly has helped me a lot, it changes me for the better, change is scary that's for sure.
Asker+1 yPatriach is anti nature and goes against women - I'm not cut out to be married to a man nor am I attracted to men sexually or emotionally- the whole entire time I was with my ex husband I thought about another woman to make love too and embrace
Asker+1 yGuess what I still desire a woman's touch and love.. all I want not to make love to a woman and not going to go against my sexuality to do something that won't make me happy
- +1 y
Chasing happiness will deceive you, you are feeding the flesh, but alright, since neither one of us are going to change perspective, it's best to leave it here, good day anon.
Asker+1 yThere's no benefit to being married to a man other then stress and self servitude to a man which I'm not doing- a help mate / men want wives , maids, etc go hire these things
Asker+1 yFeeding the flesh when I've been sexually attracted to women since I was a teen and connected to women
- +1 y
Yep feeding the flesh, going for what makes you happy, what satisfies the flesh, you have to feed the holy spirit inside you and until you do, you won't really notice change, I disagree, I am aware that bad men exist and they treat women wrong and I can assure you if they followed the words of God on marriage, they would be better men, I do and I'm willing to provide, respect, protect remain loyal and love a woman that's willing to do the same for me when it comes to providing care for our children, remaining loyal to me, love me and be supportive and respect me, it's just the world is so messed up that women don't value men like me and men don't value women with all these features either, I apologize for the bad men you've ran into and the ones you are going to run into but in case you are ever curious for life change, the door is always open anon.
Asker+1 yI am holy spirit led and not dealing with a man - the idea disgusts me eveytime I think about how I let one of you touch me ( it's nasty and gross) no thanks I feel filthy
Asker+1 yA woman is only allowed to touch and make love to md
Asker+1 yMe.. sorry
Asker+1 yWhat makes you think I had bad experiences lol I don't have much experiences with men and furthermore it doesn't change the fact I'm attracted to women

Asker+1 yWhat does my sexuality have to do with church? I am affiliated with a LGBTQ church now
- +1 y
My point is when you give your life to Christ, you give all that used to be your identity in exchange for all he wants you to be. 1 Corinthians 6 vs 9-11 how can you in good conscience knowing that God says fornicators, adulterers, sodomites, homosexuals, extortioners etc will not inherit the Kingdom of God, still think it's in your best interest to leave a biblical church for one whose leadership decided that God's word means nothing. Is Jesus not powerful enough that a sexuality should be considered irredeemable. Pastors and church leaders that affirm sin shepherd God's flock to hell because they've ruled that feelings are more important than the word. Jesus is the end all be all, not sexuality nor its expression or lack thereof. Jackie Hill Perry is such an example. It is well
Asker+1 yLeave the patriarchal/ traditional talk for men and women who want to be together- those concepts or indoctrination don't apply to women like me as I'm gay and believe in God, but don't follow that.. you religious people are cult members in my opinion and I don't deal with you people sorry
Asker+1 yI'm going to be who I am and let God judge me just like everyone else will be judged 💯 not you or anyone else business to judge me.. furthermore that's it. A lot of you are hypocrites as many of you so called Christians don't live right yourselves
I'm sorry to hear this, what denomination are you from, I'm going to churchome as a churchome, and I'm having a pastor's conversation, if you want, try churchome

Asker+1 yI don't have a problem with his teachings - I have a problem with his views towards the LGBTQ community.../ I also don't support patriarchal beliefs
Asker+1 yChurches and religion is based on that
Opinion Owner+1 yOf course, that’s how God designed it. We are meant to turn away from our sin and conform to Christ. Here is a passage I hope you will find benefit from 🙏
Matthew 6:19-24
Lay Up Treasures in Heaven
[19] “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, [20] but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. [21] For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
[22] “The eye is the lamp of the body. So, if your eye is healthy, your whole body will be full of light, [23] but if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light in you is darkness, how great is the darkness!
[24] “No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money.
Even though this passage talks about money being a master over us it’s also important to note that anything can be a master over us and take away our devotion from him. When we let sin take hold it will cause our hearts to love one but hate the other. Unfortunately your feelings toward your pastor are also against Christ who has told us that if we love him keep my commandments.
Asker+1 yI'm not attracted to men - sexually or emotionally
Asker+1 yI know for a fact I won't be happy with men so there's no need to pursue them if there's no connection or spark there. Every time I lay with a man I think of a woman
Asker+1 yI did with my ex
Asker+1 yI'm not changing who I am and allow my happiness to suffer
Opinion Owner+1 yattraction just has to do with your heart it doesn’t mean you can’t find a guy you feel loved by. And i know you want to be happy however happiness isn’t really what you want. Happiness means that when life is going well you go well and when it doesn’t your miserable. Instead you want God to fill this void. Through his Spirit you can feel eternal joy and peace no matter what life brings you but you can’t have that while living a sinful lifestyle. It will quench the Spirit. Sex outside of of wedlock shouldn’t be done anyway. It may be better to be single and devote yourself to God so that you can bring him into the future with you then to live a life where he can’t blossom through you
Asker+1 yI'm not sexually attracted to men why is this difficult to understand- I don't want a relationship with a man only a woman who I know I'll be happy with! I dont find men sexually, emotionally, or mentally attractive !
Asker+1 yWhen I laid with my husband I hated it and found it to be disgusting to sleep with a man less more date one!
Asker+1 yI am waiting on my wife 👰♀👰♀
Asker+1 yI'm celibate for my wife so she can love and make love to me
Opinion Owner+1 yUmm but the problem is that God doesn’t ordain marriage between the same sex. Why do it the right way if it’s still wrong? It doesn’t make it better. This is about your relationship with God. It’s better to turn away from sin and figure it out from there then to live a life apart from him. But like I said you can just be single but if you continue in sin either God will chasten you or if you don’t belong to him likely nothing will happen and the Holy Spirit won’t convict you. I know this sounds harsh but God still holds his children accountable. Make sure that you are on the right side of salvation. Nothing could be more important.
Asker+1 yI have a relationship with God ♥️
Opinion Owner+1 yI would put that relationship first then. That’s the best advice I could give. Nothing is worse then when he takes away the joy of your salvation and turns away from you. I’ve been there and I’ve had my life fall apart because I wanted to do what I wanted instead of his will. but don’t do that. Don’t underestimate the horror that can come to your life. The evil one is your accuser and God will use him if it’s for a greater cause
Asker+1 yWhy be with a man when I know I won't be happy? That's not going to be fair to me or that man - actually ended things with my ex because I wasn't happy with him
Asker+1 yNot every woman wants a man or children - you men should pursue women who do
Asker+1 yStop chasing women who don't desire relationships with men - I'm happier with women and not even connected to men emotionally or sexually actually drained by you men !
Opinion Owner+1 yBe single
Asker+1 yNo gonna date a woman who I'm happy with and are attracted to
Asker+1 yCan't wait to marry my beautiful wife
Asker+1 y@Sean you about to get blocked on my post because you sound like a religious nazi nut case a demon in me no - you are one though running through this post like you're crazy ! At the end of the day I don't desire marriage or relationships with men get over it! Your homophobic and hate is showing !

Asker+1 yI just told you I don't follow religion or religious doctrines
Asker+1 yYet you continue to push Christian beliefs when I'm spiritual and believe in God by living right and doing right - the issue you Christian take scriptures and force your beliefs and views on others
Asker+1 yI read the Bible but don't follow Christian beliefs
Asker+1 yYou are crazy you're constantly pushing your views hard when I said I was non denominational
Asker+1 yI believe Jesus lives within us and I try to live right- my sexuality is who I am exactly how God made me
Asker+1 ySee a nuts I'm so glad I don't follow Christians extremely judgmental when scriptures say not to judge people
Asker+1 yPreach it some where else
Asker+1 yI don't need to be told the word of God when I read the Bible and have discernment
Opinion Owner+1 yAsker, the answer to your question is still no, you should not leave the church. If you think Christians are the worst to deal with, travel to the middle east and announce your homosexuality there.
Opinion Owner+1 y@sean1234 Asker wrote "Christians are by far the worse to deal with" in one of her replies. So let her go see how popular her homosexuality is in a non-Christian country. Like in the Middle East were homos have limited rights.
Asker+1 yYou all are especially you men when it comes to not being able to have access to women - you're not entitled to women that don't want you or desire anything with you
Asker+1 yI don't have sex with men because I don't desire too - I'm saving myself for my wife
Asker+1 yFurthermore I don't go around talking about homosexuality- you men should focus on women who desire something with you- I have no need to. pursue or further anything with men as it would be a waste of time there
Asker+1 yIdgaf how men feel lol
Opinion Owner+1 yAsker, I have not said I’m entitled to women. I said Don’t leave your church, and go to the middle east and announce your homosexuality there.
Your question said you feel your pastor making (probably just comments considering your attitude) about alphabet people counteracts your lifestyle and sexuality. And you are saving yourself for your wife. So you are either homo or a man pretending to be female.
So go to the middle east and proclaim your homosexuality. And if you get punished for it, enjoy thinking about that they are at least not those Christians that are the worst to deal with.
Asker+1 yWhy do I have to go to the middle east lol 😆 I don't talk about homosexuality freely - lol rofl noone cares what you men think and yes I left my church
Opinion Owner+1 yTo announce your gayness in a non-christian country that looks down on gayness and learn that Christians are not the worst.
You should join your church again.
Asker+1 yIdc about Christians gonna live how I live
Opinion Owner+1 yYou cared enough to say they are the worst. You should repent your sins and go back to your church. May God have mercy on you.
Asker+1 yYou people need a life- you Christians sound like jevoah witnesses how sad
Asker+1 yWhy would I stay with a man I'm not attracted to or desire heartfully - why I ended things with my ex husband quickly
Asker+1 yI can live my life how I want too now in peace and happiness
Asker+1 yI didn't stay. I divirced my ex-husband less than 2 years at that time I was still questioning my sexuality.. he knew that , but kept pursuing me
Asker+1 yNow , he's moved on and so did I
Asker+1 yMoving forward I don't waste men's time because they know where I stand
Asker+1 yMen shouldn't pursue lebians in the first place - won't sleep with a man and if I did there would be no romantic or emotional connection there
Asker+1 yI find it strange that you won't move on
Asker+1 yAnd stop asking these stupid questions I already answered 🙄
Should I keep attending church?
