A scriptural perspective

Not to long ago I read a post by a few liberal minded people on another web site and the topic was, "is homosexuality a choice or not?" This inspired me to carefully examine the scriptures to determine just how some people feel they are born this way. Lets just say for the sake of this blog that people could be born this way, with a certain sexual persuasion. If this is the case then that would mean people are born as pedophiles as well. The idea or notion that God would create a person to destroy a child's life by molesting them is insane and ludicrous. So we can deduce from reason and logic that it is by choice and not by design that one is homosexual. Okay now to the scriptures, it says in Romans chapter 1 that God allows people that continually reject Him to think in a way that isn't normal and it is called reprobate which literally means rejected. Romans 1 gives some pretty clear examples of how it is a persons choice and finally God stops trying to correct them and therefore rejects them. This indeed hard to accept due to the fact that God doesn't want anyone to perish and desires for all to be saved but if a person denies the very One who Bought them then He will set them free to live for their own lusts and desires. The question also stands for "gay Christians" in the church. Let's just say you were gay before your salvation experience but afterward you still feel gay and aren't being moved otherwise then 2 Corinthians 5:17 isn't being fulfilled in your life and I would question your salvation all together. That verse plainly states that if therefore any person is in Christ then they are a "new creature or creation", old things have passed away (when I think of this phrase it makes me think of someone Passing away) and Behold all things become new. So how does one stay Gay once saved? It doesn't add up to me. The person that chooses to remain gay after they come to the saving knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is rejecting Him as Lord and He will reject them as well. I feel torn when confronted with this subject because I don't desire to alienate anyone nor do I want to discourage a person from coming to Christ. We have been commissioned to the ministry of Reconciliation and hereby must find ways to fulfill this Commission.
