"All humans are simultaneously sinful and loved. All people, regardless of their story, are deeply and unconditionally loved by God, each created with profound dignity and worth, not one more than another. This is more than mere religious happy talk — it’s truth whether one is gay, straight, or otherwise. But, all people are also stricken with a terminal illness: sin. Everyone. No exceptions and to the same degree. Our sin demands our repentance and needs forgiveness, and God’s love and grace are where we find both. This is basic Christianity and the great equalizer of all people."

In Episode 11 of the Tshepishow Podcast I discuss Christianity and Sexuality. It is not an attack on anyone - in fact, I discuss the sins of “heterosexual” people. “We all have some manner of sexual drive that compels us to disobey God’s design for sexuality. But, while temptation is universal, it’s different from sin.”

I put the word in inverted commas because our identity is not in our sexuality.  We are more than our sexuality. Do not reduce yourself to your sexuality.

Be sure to check out the difference between Ceremonial Laws and Moral Laws from The Old Testament.

PS - There’s always somebody who has conquered what you’re struggling with. Find ‘em! For help. Let us subjugate our sexual (and many other) desires to our faith commitment.

Oh, and yes - you have free will. You’re free to do whatever. You’re free to serve whomever.
