Lust is lust, Madeleine. It's the same, whether it be homosexual or heterosexual. Both are forbidden by the Lord.
We all have our struggles with at least one sin. Mine, for the longest time, has been the sin we've just discussed: lustful thoughts. But the more and more I pray to Jesus for forgiveness, guidance and strength, the less and less these thoughts occur. Some sins are pushed away immediately. Others take time.
There are two things we can do, Madeline: pray for these people and teach them the commandments and promises of the Lord. We are only commissioned to plant seeds. The rest is up to the Lord.
BTW, I like your avatar.
Homosexuality is a sin, Gerani. Why do you insist upon being blind to the truth? Ever hear of Sodom? Not only were the Sodomites thumbing their noses at God and his laws, but they were happily violating one law in particular: the one that forbids homosexual relationships, period.
You may not have chosen to be gay, but you can choose to avoid giving into those temptations. It doesn't even sound like you're trying.
