    I'm a Christian - working in missions. I'm coming to terms w the fact that I'm queer. I'm so confused and terrified.
    Yesterday I came out to one close friend who is also Christian. And she came out to me.
    It feels so liberating to process w someone who is on the same journey as me.
    I am slowly learning to accept... whatever this is and to begin to figure out how it looks in my life. I'm slowly finding freedom, peace, faith, acceptance.

      MY Heart breaks for you. God is love but love cannot rejoice in wrong doing. One of the things Jesus said be not deceived. When God made Adam and eve they were perfect no sin . They fell when they disobeyed God . They died spiritually and after their super bodies wore out they died physically. Because of Adam and Eve sin we are all born sinners. We have a sin nature like a little ball inside of us that has potential for all sin. Whater
      It is exposed to . It loves to sin. We are all realted to Adam in his family. We are not in Gods family until we receive Jesus and become his children. John wrote to all who received him he gave the right yo become children of God. We must repent of all our sins and believe in Jesus and believe his word he is the living word. Believe even the clobber passages. God made us to function one way. Any sex outside of marriage between a man and a woman is sin. Even lusting after a woman is sin. Like we are all sinners.
      We all need Jesus. The Holy Spirit convicts us we are sinners . When we repent and believe in Jesus
      He gives us new desires we have a new nature that wants to please him. We can never find true love and peace living after the flesh . We need salvatiin forgivness of all our sins beliving trusting i n relying on Jesus. There is life to be found but Jesus said few find it. The road is narrow. Jesus and his word even the clobber passages. Jesus hates so much he died on the cross to pay the price for them. To set us free. He hates sin. He loves you. God does not rejoice in wrong doing.

    Thank you so much for choosing visibility. I've attended & been loved as a Christian at a non-affirming church, though I wasn't able to participate or serve openly because enough of my queerness was on display & I watched others be pushed out of leadership. My preferred denomination (Episcopalian) is actively affirming, yet God called me to wander & challenged how I see Them (& the Episcopal place isn't always the best place to quit drinking, lol). I always felt God say Hold on, stay for now. That said, this same church protected me & supported me in separating from my abusive immediate family. So, I have very mixed views about how the church received me in the past, but I definitely believe God's hand has been on my life all along as so much was being deconstructed. I'm thankfully now at a church in another part of the country where the pastor is openly affirming & leaders have discussed how being friends with people who were exposed to conversion therapy decades ago influenced their support & volunteer work with the LGBT community. I feel theologically & socially safer than I ever have in my life here, but I'm still in the closet re: the wider church, mostly because I don't want to endanger my prospects or open myself up to continued abuse. I've never suffered persecution for my queerness (oddly, other things, but not that) though I recognize sharing with the wrong person one time could have disastrous effects for myself & my preferred partner. Thank you for being out. I ask myself how many health problems do I want trying to hold it all in. In these moments, I hand it up to God as They made me Christian & will ultimately deliver us, especially from cherry-picking sins.

      Jesus practiced a lot of hatred towards other jews, so did Paul against sexual sinners, and John the Baptist against the divorced. Being a christian certainly requires a bit of hatred, even God is storing up his wrath.

  • @lauraabell9668
    @lauraabell9668 5 лет назад +3

    Jackie, first of all I never comment on RUclips videos this way, but something about your message touched me and I wanted to reach out. First off, I am so sorry for the ways Christians have failed the LGBT community. The story of the pastor humiliating that boy is just heartbreaking. No one should ever have to feel that they are cut off or without hope, especially because of something they can’t change. Christianity should never be used as a way to flex our own supposed “righteousness,” especially at others’ expense. The great equalizer is not that we’re all awesome though, it’s that we all *aren’t* -gay, straight, bi, whatever. We ALL have sins in our lives and are fundamentally messed up. And until we come to that place of realization in our lives, we aren’t ready for God. There’s a reason Jesus began his epic Sermon on the Mount with the declaration, “Blessed are the poor in spirit.” We have to have an attitude of submission when we come to God. That’s where the journey begins - total humility. It’s a heart that says, “God, I don’t deserve you, I can never repay you, and my life is now yours to do whatever you want to with.”
    Several times you reference a particular view on homosexuality - that it’s a sin to have same-sex-attraction and that people who are attracted to their own gender are going to hell. There may be Christians who preach this but they didn’t get that from reading the Bible. Let’s use something else as an analogy. Say I am a compulsive gossip. Every time I find out an interesting tidbit I have a BURNING desire to share it with the next person. If I feel that desire to gossip, have I sinned? No. Being tempted to do something wrong is not a sin. So even if you believe that practicing an LGBT lifestyle is wrong, the orientation itself is not sinful. God absolutely does not hate or condemn anyone for experiencing same-sex attraction!
    This comment is not the place for a verse by verse breakdown of what the Bible says about practicing an LGBT lifestyle, but I will contradict you and mention that same-sex sex has been going on a long, long time. Like back to the days of Abraham and Lot (Genesis 19). Sappho was a Greek lesbian poet in 580 BC. Besides the obvious medical advances that make gender reassignment possible, not a lot has changed between then and now. We can’t say that Bible commentary on homosexuality was actually talking about something else, if that makes sense.
    I love that you have a desire to grow and to ask questions and develop a faith that is truly your own. Keep seeking that. The good news is that God is unchangingly faithful and good, the hard news is that His truth doesn’t change either. He doesn’t “grow” along with us, because He was perfect from the beginning. His word is applicable for all time and for every culture. Are there commandments and principles I wish didn’t exist? Sometimes, yes! But I have to accept that God understands things I don’t and those difficult commands are there for a reason. But I won’t belabor the point. If you read all this, I’m very impressed - hope you found something useful or encouraging!

That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’ The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes.

    Hi Jackie, I’ve watched a lot of your videos in the past and I’m still subscribed to you because I just love you girl 😊 I would encourage you to search out the scriptures on this topic. Romans 1 clearly speaks that because those people were disobedient to Christ (they were acting out in homosexuality behavior and other sins) God gave them up to themselves, to their sinful nature. God in His love wants us all to come to repentance - because we all sin. Whether your struggle is drinking consistently, having sex outside of marriage consistently or engaging in homosexuality consistently. God wants for all people whatever their struggle is to come to repentance and salvation. What/Who do we love more? God or ourselves? If we truly love God we will obey His commands. Praying for you. Sending love and hugs 🤗

      I was raised in a Christian home, but I've known for years I'm a gay guy, I don't tell anyone , I keep it to myself , which is why my depression is bad a lot, I've tried to hide it for a longtime, but I know deep down I'm gay.

    i respect how you feel and your opinion. and i dont think you’re going to hell. my only question is this. you say you’ve done research and have resources validating it being ok to be gay and love God. but as a christian why isnt Gods active and living word and the holy spirit not enough of a resource? im in no way judging im just trying to understand your reasoning to trust more in resources that are more concerned about following feelings then truth. i love your page and in no way am i judging. just please help me understand the lack of trust in Gods word. whats the point of christianity if we cant trust his word and have to seek outside resource to validate how we feel?

      God’s “word” is, as much as we like to imagine it was breathed onto paper instantly, has been written and rewritten for thousands of years by men with their own beliefs and cultures influencing it. The Bible is beautiful and inspiring, but looking at it without taking into account the context of when each book was written makes you miss just how beautiful it is. It’s not only a book filled with God’s messages for us, but it’s also a book that details the journey of humanity coming to know God and coming to understand how deep his love is for us through Jesus Christ. I trust God’s word, and that’s the word I get through prayer and conversation with him daily.

      God's word has been translated many times over to get to the version you may have read. There is several words that were translated to mean homosexuality but are used as other terms throughout. Arsenokoitai is just one of them.

      @Drunk Drywaller no, that's. It what it means. I can send you videos if you'd like, but you should research what those original texts were, what abomination means she. It was first added to the bible translation less than 100 years ago, and what the rest of the versus say.

    God is god. He doesn’t conform to us. We cannot twist Christ to our liking. I was a misfit in church but I didn’t ever condone sin. Not my sin or my family’s. My mother didn’t condone my lifestyle but she loved me. Revelations, Jesus was speaking to John, Jesus called out the world for conforming to a new religion that accepted sin. There’s forgiveness to those that repent. Jesus said “go and sin no more” he didn’t hang out with sinners. He hung out with reformed sinners. That’s why he called out the man he healed for sinning. Jesus told him to pick up his mat and sin no more. When the man continued to sin Jesus told him to stop before something bad happened to him. There’s abundance of grace for those that actually try to hold fast till the end. 👈Jesus said that. Christ was clear. If you love him you’ll keep his word and love your brother. It didn’t say your brother will be in heaven with u. You just love him. You don’t condone sin... you love. God of Abraham was harder on the Jews in a time when there wasn’t modern medicine. Imagine how healthy and safe we all would be if we lived exactly like god tells us to. Bottom line sin has a price because god made us a certain way. “For refusing the truth I will turn you over to a lying spirt so you’ll continue believing your lies” ~ god said that. There’s no place more dangerous than not being able to repent. Pray about it and I will too. Ask god to give the person that is wrong nightmares. Believe it or not this worked with my parents when they disagreed with each other’s theology.

    Though I find it odd for one to love someone romantically of the same sex I never hated anyone for it. I can't say much about the religious part not coming from such a background myself though it didn't surprise me either. I may understand someone might speak against homosexuality for religious reasons but at the same time I doubt anyone would go out of their way to love someone of the same sex risking any kind of turmoil. I've often felt while we all have control over what we do but I figure I can't feel anything romantically for a man and if someone who is a man or woman and feels such feeling for the same gender then maybe they can't feel the same for the opposite.
    Maybe the bible isn't something that always should be taken literally or if you're gonna do that consider that since there's no physical evidence to support such stuff perhaps one need to be willing to think outside what they believe if not disregard it.

    Jackie!! I'm so sorry :( . I think people are generalizing the "Going to hell" Conversation piece. Hell is a place where you aren't surrounded by God. Not this fiery pit of gnashing of teeth. I'm just really sorry that after everything you've been through, that this is what it's led you to. I encourage you to look into Matthew Vines, especially his book. He's claiming to "re-train" Christians on how they've been wrong for 2000 years about what God says about homosexuality. Please PLEASE just take a look into him. I've read his book. It's 100% based off of Martin Luther's Revolution in the 1960's. This is a crazy attempt to brainwash people in the LGBT community, and I'm not just saying that. Think about how you and Alex were raised. now think about conforming to a New Age movement that justifies sin. Just please look into him.

    Hello Jackie. I want to tell you my opinion because it’s different from yours and the extreme you go to hell view you mentioned in this video. I want to start by saying I have seen your heart and many of videos and think you are a follower of God. But I think being attracted to the same sex is a sin. I don’t think you will go to hell because of that sin though. I see it the same as lying, sex out of marriage, adultery, etc. it is something I believe you need to know confess to God and turn away from but doing it doesn’t make you not Christian. That’s just what I believe though. I don’t see you any different because you see things differently. I am still looking forward to your next book and appreciate you opening up and sharing something like this. I respect you for that. And hope you continue to make videos because I really believe they make a difference

    • @MIKECNW
      @MIKECNW 5 лет назад

      Let me ask you a question. If you think it's a sin do you honestly think one's gonna act upon it if they feel that's all they're able to feel? You probably can't fee such feelings for a guy and maybe she's unable to do the same.

  • @kimberlymarrone67

    I challenge any and everyone of you to ask God to show you His truth and anywhere in the Bible it says it is not a sin about this way of living and believing . The difficult choice for you is to receive truth or deny Christ and what he really says in His word not what someone else says it says and means. That's a cop out to make us feel better to believe what some person with letters after their name means the truth as we sin. WE need to ask Him and see for ourselves. Unfortunately you have to use a book that's not even the Bible to defend your stance. And what's worse is you are teaching others and misleading them astray and that is a terrifying thing to do. I know, I used to lead others astray with my beliefs and I was very firm and I led many astray and when I came back to the Lord I fell on my face and asked for forgiveness. Leading others away from truth is by far the scariest thing I've ever done. If you deny Christ enough times he will harden your heart to sin and you will start to hate anyone and everything that disagrees with you. You also will hate the sound of someone reading the Bible. You will hate the sound of Christian lyrics speaking about Jesus and speaking about the one true God. It makes you seriously uncomfortable and it makes you agitated to even hear it especially anyone reading the Bible. Guaranteed if it doesn't bother you now it will start to bother you and this is one of the important moments that should tell you if the word of God read out loud is bothering me then something is drastically wrong. Yes it breaks my heart to say you will spend eternity in hell end all who believe this way should you not change your ways. Please don't hear that as judgment but hear that as deep concern. I pray in Jesus Christ name that God brings you truth, undeniable truth and that you would choose His truth before it's too late. Before he allows your heart to harden because after all it's your choice to keep denying Him and then the price for that choice is hell. If you and your sister think back in your life when you were young they're most likely is a common interaction of something you either watched on TV or listened to through music or experienced something physically that a point that a demon came in and confused you about your sexuality. Or it's a curse that came down through family generation. You will know I speak truth about God and the Bible because you will never have any peace no matter how you try to convince others and yourself how you're free and you're happy you're not happy you're not free you're miserable and you have no understanding of true peace. There are some videos if you don't believe me go check them out about people who have visited hell especially one man named Bill Wiese and explains what hell was like and it's terrifying. God be with you and that you will see the light. I love you with Christ's love. ❤

    You can't be a Christian if your living in defiance to God's word. You'll never be Justified and in-dwelt with the Holy Spirit by being a fornicator and bragging about your rebellion against God. Pray for discernment!!
    We are all in the same boat here on Earth as Romans says 3:10-12
    10 as it is written:
    “None is righteous, no, not one;
    11 no one understands;
    no one seeks for God.
    12 All have turned aside; together they have become worthless;
    no one does good,
    not even one.”
    You have to have faith and repent and ask God to come into your life! We all do. We are all sinners that fail miserably. Once He does you'll be Justified and the Holy-Spirit will dwell within you and change your heart and you'll want to please God and follow him not rebel. This is serious! We are only on Earth a very short time and then you'll have to give an account and eternity will then await you in one place or another?? Twisting scripture around is another BIG BIG No NO!

    Nothing but love for you Jackie. Glad you are being fully honest with yourself. But I do have a thought. Why identify yourself by sexual orientation? Why is that such a big identity? Because are more than your attractions. Another thought is, you don't think what you believe is becoming more about you than Jesus? Like it's about how YOU feel how everything affects YOU, your feelings matter over anything and idk. I just don't agree. I think you can have queer attractions but I just dont lean towards God 100% affirming those attractions being 100% ok to act upon. Especially Jesus says our very nature is corrupt. That just because we feel something, doesn't make it 100% right to do. I think it's to feel things and be open and honest 100% about it. But I don't see scripture affirming it. I think it needs to be less about us and more about God. Idk. Just some thoughts. God bless you

Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
