The Bible clearly lays out that Christ has paid the penalty for the sin of homosexuality (like every other sin) and also frees one from its power (like every other sin). Unfortunately, confusion and hostility towards this particular sin struggle has often left many struggling with it feeling unaccepted by self-righteous Christians. So we take a look at what homosexuality is, what causes it, whether its sinful, and how one begins to change and find freedom from it.

God intended sex to be a wholistic exchange of all of life between two intimately known and deeply committed people within marriage. God intended sex to provide a picture of Him, procreation, and pleasure and yet it was to require great self-sacrifice and self-control. In a culture that has become obsessed with the pleasure that sex provides they have pursued an experience of sex that is so far different than what God intended and it has left us more hurting, used, and lonely than ever before.
