Born That Way

1 Corinthians 6:9-11 (New Living Translation)

9 Don’t you realize that those who do wrong will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Don’t fool yourselves. Those who indulge in sexual sin, or who worship idols, or commit adultery, or are male prostitutes, or practice homosexuality, 10 or are thieves, or greedy people, or drunkards, or are abusive, or cheat people—none of these will inherit the Kingdom of God. 11 Some of you were once like that. But you were cleansed; you were made holy; you were made right with God by calling on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.

One of the arguments we hear about homosexuality (note it is just one in the list of sins Paul addresses … sin is sin) is that a person is born that way. This scripture says it is an indulged practice and is something which like other sin, one can be cleansed from. Homosexuality, along with any sin, is not beyond the power of God, through the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, to make one right.

God is omnipotent … all powerful, if one will lay their sin at the foot of the Cross.
