Honestly what do you say?

Lately I have been confused, on what to say to the LGBT community. For those of you who aren't familiar with that term, it stands for Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender. What do you say to them? Because I want to show them I love them and that I am there for them, regardless of their sex preference, but how do you also tell them that their beliefs are wrong? Because as soon as you say, homosexuality is wrong, they block out every other word you say and they hate you. Honestly, what do you say?

Comment by Lisi on August 6, 2012 at 4:07pm: @Meredith O. God doesn't like homosexuality. He speaks very much against it. So he didn't make people like that; those people conformed to the ways of this world. But that doesn't mean God doesn't love them and it doesn't mean he won't reveal himself to them.

Comment by Raquel Dumé on August 6, 2012 at 8:43am: @Lisi AMEN! Thank you for that :) It really helps, and everyone's sin is the same, so when God sees a liar and then a homosexual, He sees their sin as equal, so they are no worse than us.

Comment by Raquel Dumé on August 6, 2012 at 8:41am: @Meredith O. I think it's a state of mind, but I'm not necessarily sure if it's like something they are born with. I think over time they realize that they like the same sex more then the opposite sex. I don't think God would make them have a state of mind like that. And God would never give them something they can't control, they just choose not to control it, because if they tried, they could.

Comment by Lisi on August 5, 2012 at 4:13pm: My uncle is the youngest of my dad's brothers and sisters. And he is gay. Everyone else in our family is either Lutheran, Catholic or Christian. When I first found out about my uncle I didn't want to go near him. I always thought he was the cool uncle when he came to visit, even if he brought his friend. There's these two guys a few houses away from me who always keep their property looking great, they're super nice and have a cute dog. I didn't know they were gay either... Until my mom told me a couple years ago. Yeah, at first I felt kind of awkward around them or my uncle. Why shiuld I treat them differently now that I know more about them? They aren't harming me. Yes, the lifestyle is definitely not godly at all. But guess what? There's three things God has never seen before: 1. God has never seen a person that has not sinned, 2. God has never seen a sinner he does not love, 3. God has never seen a sinner he cannot save. Even if you don't mention God to them or that they way they're living is wrong in God's eyes, you can still serve them and show God's love.

Comment by Meredith O on August 5, 2012 at 3:29pm: I feel bad having no answers for you, and only questions but this is a really difficult topic. Where I'm confused is I don't understand it. Like do people choose to be LGBT, knowing that it against God, or does God design them that way and they can't control it?

Comment by Armoney Emmanuel on August 4, 2012 at 11:25pm: @haley the verses helped me alot to becuase one of my used to be best freinds are homosexual, and i tried too look past it, but it is hard because shes trusts me so much, i trust her too, its just she told me about every homosexual encounter she had (in detail) and now when every we hang out all i can think about is what she told me. I just dont know how to tell her its wrong because shes told me about how people not excepting her has made her go down in tears, and me, as her friend, i just dont want to do that to her, it will make me fell bad.

Comment by Raquel Dumé on August 4, 2012 at 8:12pm: @Meredith O. LGBT is obviously wrong, but what I don't get is why they can't see that. And why can't the rest of the world see that too? That's mainly what confuses me, and how do we get them to understand that it's wrong without them hating us for telling them the truth.

Comment by Raquel Dumé on August 4, 2012 at 7:36pm: @Haley Yeah, but the thing is, I don't actually know any homosexuals, yet, but I'm sure that going to secular schools I will come across one eventually. I'm just unsure about how to express my beliefs to others, people who aren't necessarily homosexuals, but are supporters of them. Like how do I do that without offending anybody? When the president of Chick-Fil-A expressed his beliefs on marriage, the LGBT community expressed hate, without even trying to understand why he believes this, they staged a protest on Friday, which I don't know how it went or how they handled it. I don't think befriending homosexuals is the best way to go, it just creates more hate, because yes, they sin by wanting the same sex, BUT we have to learn how to love the person and hate the sin, and I just don't know how to explain that. But thank you for the verses :) They are VERY helpful.
