@Roxanne Meeks The community wouldn’t shun or reject him though. However, many people reject those who are LGBTQA+. If certain Christians don’t like it then they can just let us be. There is a movement because so many people have shown us so much hatred.
@Christopher Heskett Because he’s been shamed and lead to believe by the people around him that he is dirty. Most in the community have been there, why wouldn’t they want to help him love himself?
I can relate. I was praying in my bathroom when the Holy Spirit came over me, and all of a sudden, I was filled with the knowledge that God is real, Jesus is real, and I heard the words, " You are now adopted into my Kingdom". I was bawling, just like Becket. To God be the glory, He is just and merciful, and loved us first.
This makes me so sad because I was molested for years as a child and it has impacted the rest of my life. I’m 46 now and I’ve had so many broken relationships with men and women unfortunately only to eventually realize we live in such a broken world and God never wanted this for us. Thank God for saving me outta my mess. Not saying everything is always wonderful but at least I know I have a future and eternity with my Savior. 🙏🏽❤️
C'est Σ Hope you find fellowship in your walk with Christ! Also God promises that if you seek Him, you will find Him! And God always keeps His promises! The gospel means that you can never do what’s right, that you’re enslaved by sin, apart from God. So Jesus did all the work for you, so that you could be free to have a relationship with God!
Wow . Before encountering Christ, I used to feel the same way, I felt empty and void in the inside and my life had literally no meaning. But thanks to God the Father, today I’m saved and washed clean. This “Jesus thing” is real!!!
Exactly!! Just today I was thinking... what do people do when they don't believe in God? How do you survive the crushing despair or discouragement? We are so blessed to be shown God's saving Grace 😔🙏
@@applefarm6126 cool story bro. That's why my dad leads a happy life with a woman he loves and work he enjoys, right? Oh wait he's atheist so that isn't possible right? F*ck off
I love how he says he instantly knew the meaning of life. I also totally understand the whole thing about his identity. It’s interesting how there’s all these little things in our lives that we use to try to define who we are. But our true identity Is in Christ. We will never truly know who we are until we know who we are in Christ. It’s really something only the Holy Spirit can reveal to you.
Jessica N you were made by God and for God. You belong to him. You are so incredibly valuable to him. There is no one else on earth like you. You were fearfully and wonderfully made. You are not defined by skin color, culture, race, illness, career, intelligence, accomplishments or mistakes. You are who he says you are. He went to great lengths and willingly gave his own life in place of yours because he loves you that much. Knowing this about him creates a desire in your heart to reciprocate that love and strive to be all that God created you to be!! ☺️😉 That’s honestly just the “tip of the iceberg”
@@jessicac_k268 it is because it is more so a relationship than just a belief. We first believe, cultivate what we believe and in whom we believe and then we receive. Talk with Jesus, be honest, the same way you would talk to a friend, parent, etc. Be blessed. ☺️
I felt the same outpouring of love and peace the moment I was born again. It was the most amazing feeling I've ever felt. The feeling of pure love and peace surrounding me and fulfilling my soul. I was transformed and truly born again, a new creature in Christ. I love hearing others describe the same feeling I had after repentance and faith! Praise God!
I love how he said his Christian parents were sweet & loving about it. Versus condemning and kicking him out etc. the goodness of God Leads to repentance
Centurion Guards Oh my goodness....thank you for saying that...even going to the park without parental supervision. And, am I correct that this is a sanctioned perverse lifestyle choice (homosexuality), practiced by some Boy Scout Leaders?? You are not safe anywhere!! I met an elderly man who told me his little girl was sexually molested in the basement of a church by a church leader, and it devastated her and still devastated this elderly man. I am not catholic, but there is NO WAY I would want my son to be an altar boy, choir boy or give ANYONE the opportunity in that environment to make, my son his "boy toy"!! THERE ARE JEFFREY EPSTEINS lurking in every PERCEIVED safe place in our world today. What about the PORNOGRAPHY that kids are being introduced to either intentionally (even by their own sick parents), or accidentally stumbling across it at a friends or relatives home. I know an individual who carries scars to this day from stumbling into pornography at an age so young and so easily confused and impressionable. This story by CBN was incredibly uplifting, inspirational, and socially challenging!!
This is a foolish statement, you can't honestly believe excessive sheltering can be beneficial to a child, with educated reasoning and knowing of the parents your child will be going to stay with for the night there is nothing wrong with that.
*Brittany Blessed* ~ It's an half hour show, so lots to squeeze (literally) in during the time slot. And they do this with all their interviewees.. such a pain in the neck!

@@levi.walton13 We are sinners by nature and will always gravitate toward sin, therefore, it is impossible for us to choose God willingly. The Lord, through the gift of His Holy Spirit, makes it possible for us to listen, believe and obey Him. 1 Corinthians 1:9 🙏
@@emmanuelking9988 I agree (except I don't believe we are sinners at birth). What you said it equally true with what I said. Basically, God makes it possible, but we must still make the choices.
The interviewer sounds like she's taking over but it's because she only has an alloted time to do the interview, so she is trying to lead him to get to the main point of the testimony. It isn't easy to do.
Yes, that’s her job. I don’t think it’s so much about “ratings” as she wanted to get to the most crucial parts of his story in the limited time allotted.
I felt she took over most of the conversation and did not let him talk as freely as he should but then it's true, she has limited time. It's not easy at all to do but she can do better.
One thing I respect so much in this life: HONESTY and this man has that! Thank you so much sir for being so transparent. God bless you so much Sir. May God continue increase you. 💪🔥❤️😘
Camillie Collins, I think🤔 she may have had a certain time LIMIT to interview him and pushed him along to get him to quickly answer the main questions related to his book and to get to the point of the main reason for the interview.
The same this happen to me when I accepted Jesus as my Lord and savior. The Holy spirit came upon me. it was an amazing feeling. I knew I was changed that instant and my new life in Christ had begun.
Agreed! The way to handle a short interview time frame is to ask a few powerful questions that help his story unfold. She asked too many questions and it interrupted the flow. Great story/testimony.
Becket’s story shows why truth must be paired with compassion. You just don’t know the trauma that people carry around with them. Praising God for you and the courage to tell your story.
Good reminder. His account made me think that I should be more bold in sharing with people but to do it in a way that is kind and loving towards them. But they were also loving enough to tell him the TRUTH.
We gotta stop hiding behind the church walls all the time. Start talking with people, smile, have Bible studies with fellow believers, show kindness and that helps to open the door for witnessing Jesus Christ!❤
I am a Christian of 20 years, and it really saddens me when people conjure up what they believe is the “homosexual lifestyle.” Sexual promiscuity, pornography adultery and polygamy are not congruent with being gay, those are completely separate from gayness and they don’t come with it as a side effect. It’s my prayer that God works on some of your hearts and you’ll realize that personal bias and a mix of bad decisions is not synonymous with sexuality.
The description of homosexuality as a lifestyle is a blatent oversimplification of human sexuality in general and homosexuality in particular. The reason for this indoctrination of the collective societal psyche is paramount to the self validating delusion of heterosexuality possessing moral validity. The reason that we never hear the term " heterosexual lifestyle" is because there is no need to catogorize heterosexuality with such inherent connotative oversimplification in order to subconciously justify contempt and hatred through subjective comparison.
One of my uncles was abused by the stepfather for many years. He is gay now and lives with another man. Please, pray for his conversion. I know he was not born gay, the abuses caused this. He was a lovely and healthy boy before all this terrible thing happen to him 💔🙏😭 Lord, please, save him!
this whole page is insane. Who are you to judge your uncle. God says not to judge each other but forgive me but isn’t that what you are doing by praying for his conversion? I’m 100% a Christian. Im a soldier in the Salvation Army but i am also pansexual. Meaning I fall for whoever. Man or women. And My 8 ur old knows she’s free to love men or women. Just consider not judging. Understand him.
You're right to pray for your uncle. It's criminal what happened to him. These molesters of children destroy lives. But there is hope for redemption. God bless you and your uncle.
@@yesinichole - Pansexuality!! The latest 'trendy' bandwagon it seems to be fashionable to hop on for the highly suggestible and easily led! As for being 100% Christian, no; you're a 'Pick 'n' Mix' Christian, which is very convenient for the 'Do what thou wilt' brigade. No discipline nor logic required!! Absurd!
Beckett, thank you so much for sharing your story ! I am trying to tell one of my friends about Jesus and his saving grace . My friend is 80 years old and was a clothing designer/ maker - had her own shop in the East Village for 12 years - but now needs freedom and peace to go to her eternal home . Your words have encouraged me not to give up sharing the Word with her ....
I have struggled at times with bi sexual feelings but I've noticed that it's at its worst when I've been hurt by a man ie my ex husband and ex fiance. I thank God for being with me and giving me Christian friends and family to love. And a sense of purpose and peace beyond the husband and children I had hoped for.
That’s why I have animals and my children in my life because animals love you unconditionally and never let you down .I have my children to and they make me laugh. Animals are just love then when I go to heaven I want to be with all of the abused abandoned unwanted boarded and loved animals and children forever and just play with them and laugh
Praise God for His amazing grace lavished on us!! 😔 His mercies are new every morning - what a miracle that He would save such wicked people like us! I'm so glad to have you as a sibling in Christ and praying that you would be strengthened by Him, surrounded by those who uplift and edify you! You have a wonderful testimony worth sharing, don't ever be ashamed of Him who saved you!! ❤️
What I love about this story is his parents didn’t kick him out! I love how their parents remembered that love is the greatest commandment instead of resorting to condemning them all together simplify because he was gay. Jesus would have not condemned a homosexual, instead he would have said “come follow me.” Just like everybody else. Homosexuality does not get it’s special treatment, because we are all sinners In the eyes of God.
Clearly reading the comments most people are misinformed about gay people. I for one have NEVER been sexually abused and neither have any of my gay friends. We have spoken about this many times openly. I knew I was different for a very young age. I knew nothing about gay or the word gay. But I knew I felt very uncomfortable with woman when it comes to emotional things. Like holding hands, kissing etc. I also believe that yes there is people that turns out gay and is not actually gay. They gay from, yes abuse, confused etc. So please don't comment as if you know every single gay person in the world.
Some people suppress memories or feelings to the point where they can completely forget them. And as for being born gay, there isn't a proven gay gene. People are a product of their situation and surroundings. Not trying to pick a fight or to be right, just speaking from experience.
We will all pray and just know God will hear your prayer! The scriptures say the orayers of the righteous will be heard by God. That's what the body of Christ is for❤️ we pray for each other!
I love testimonies like this, PTL, but this interviewer is really rushing him and not giving him time to express himself. She is asking too many questions for such a short segment. Also, doesn't really share his emotions.
Not to start a fight, I truly want to know - I see a lot of people saying "if (gay person) is happy, who cares which gender they marry/are attracted to?" And I'm curious, if this man is happy as a Christian, why is it sad to you?
@Surround Sound We feel that he so afraid of hell that he is lying to himself & now to others as well. I can tell you that it is incredibly common for that to happen. & they often say that they still struggle with gay desires. That alone says that are in denial of who they are. No one canbe happy living in fear in hell for being themselves
This is awesome! I love it. I'm so glad he decided to change his lifestyle. It's stories like this that give us hope and helps us to remember how powerful God is! We just have to allow him to work in our lives. He can deliver us from ANYTHING! I'm just so happy for this man. He has been blessed 💟

One can change their behavior, that does not change their fundamental sexual orientation. I have known gay men who could only function sexually with their wives by thinking of the male anatomy. They are still gay. Just as men in prison who can only function sexually with men while thinking about the female anatomy are still heterosexual.
I’m trans and gay. Never molested. Never done drugs. Not alcoholic. Not empty or unfulfilled. Happily monogamously married. Have fun fitting that into your narrative. The big difference is I don’t deal with unjust guilt because I’m not a Christian. Poor guy getting sucked in to this cult through their emotional manipulation. If he’s happy, yay for him, but I hope he doesn’t reach the end of his life and realize he wasted his brief time alive denying his natural attraction over a lie.
Mainstream Christianity doesn't fit the characteristics of a cult.. God loves you, but we are all sinners. Some of us sin in different ways. He wasn't guilty about his sexuality before, he was empty. When man is seperated from God we feel that way. I hope you will know more about God soon, have a beautiful day brother ♥️
ya s 1. I’m not anyone’s “brother”, I’d have to be male for that. I’m not even YOUR sister. 2. I’m not going to argue semantics. It’s a group of humans psychologically manipulating someone into believing they feel “empty” or “sick” and offering a fake cure to a disease they don’t have. It’s a lie. We are not all “sinners”. Being gay harms no one. 3. If you have to try to be straight, you’re not.
@@alphi4868 1.) You're not getting the point. It's not about gender, rather than a term of endearment to others.

Bring gay doesn't harm anything, it is something between you and God and His intended purpose. I vehemently disagree w you the empty part. Millions of people feel 'empty,' without having anything to do with religion. There's depression and anxiety. This man wasn't guilt tripped by anyone before he decided to go to church. Who radically changes their identity and belief system after one simple church visit, unless it's something real. And we are all sinners. Name ONE person who is perfect? 3.) Sexuality isn't fixed, it's fluid. there is no denying that..
I battled with many things in my life due to sexual abuse trauma. I hope and pray that you all are healed and delivered and find the truth. Don’t allow the world to tell you that being with the same sex is okay because God doesn’t approve of it. No sin is greater than the next sin is sin. Just please don’t believe that you can sin and be comfortable in it and God says it’s okay. We will all be judged and you have to work out your own salvation and study yourself to find the truth.
Being gay is just a wiring of your brain. Spirituality and believing in God is a power of love, and it is beyond human capacity. The holy spirit fills us with this power that all humans are fullfilled and empowered by and spread through and onto others. We become one
I’m sadden to read all the comments. I believe in god and Jesus Christ his son. I also believe he loves me as his child and as I am. I pray for you all to have a forgiveness in your heart and cast no judgement amen.
Aw I'm sorry that people have ruined this for you 😔 I've only seen positive comments praising Him for His wonderful grace, I'm sorry it didn't encourage you. And ik I'm only one person, but if it makes you feel any better, judging this man is last on my mind. As for forgiveness, I don't think he needs mine - he's already been forgiven by God, and that is all that matters! ❤️
Jesus christ himself touched my head took away my Depression and anxiety and he said he will give me rest and he did. He delivered me from the depths of Darkness that consumed me which made me attempt suicide and Nearly succeeded But now I live for Christ and left Islam Somali ex Muslim here
The Lord is faithful in all His ways and promises. He says that he doesn’t want anyone to perish but to come to the knowledge of the Truth. All have sinned and fall short of His glory. Lord help us to come to the Cross, to know our Saviour and to remain in Christ all the days of our life’s. These are truly the end days. No one knows when they will be called home. May the Spirit of the Most High God abide with us amen 🙏🏽
I accept Matthew 19:12 as evidence for being born this way. Jesus replies to why some men wont marry women. He says “For there are eunuchs who were born that way, and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by others--and there are those who choose to live like eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. The one who can accept this should accept it."
But hearing his story I would think he would dislike men be against dating men coming up not wanting to date them because of what happened to him during his childhood. Also GOD saved his soul/ salvation that very night at that party this is why he started to look across the room and said “ What am I doing here” GOD was working on him the entire time. ❤️🙏❤️🙏
That's the impact of trauma - the experience was so painful that your psyche has no better way of dealing with it than eroticising your pain. It may also lead someone to reject their male / female identity
You have no idea how many times I've heard this story. I mean, a boy gets molested and ends up gay or a child molester. In Romans 1, it states that everything that happens in the natural realm also occurs in the spiritual realm. When molesting takes place, it unleashes demonic attachment to that person. Before they realize it, they believe they are gay, or desire to be a molester. Or both.
It goes for lesbians or bicurious people. That’s what happened to me. I never had sex with a woman but I have had obsessive scary thoughts about it that abusive therapists and family and friends I told I was abused sexually by a female classmate during a friend gathering when I was sitting and many girls were around me and we were fully clothed and she abused us all told me
Read first Corinthians 6:9-10 on what GOD who sends us to heaven or hell what HE SAYS about homosexuality! It says Homosexuals will NOT inherit the kingdom of heaven. Repent bf it's too late like this man did. This is great! So proud he is standing up for the truth ❤️🙌 Glory to God for healing our sins !
@ Madeline Russell it also says that disobedient sons should be stoned to death. Deuteronomy 21: 18-21. Some things just aren’t done anymore because it hurts people even what they did was wrong they don’t deserve such a severe punishment. Being LGBTQ+ doesn’t hurt anyone, so why care about how someone else loves if no one is getting hurt?
@MsMarian Rogers I completely agree. The only time it was seen as acceptable for two men to be physical with one another, was when a young boy starting at about 14 was being taught how to be a man by an older male who would teach him how to fight among other things. There is only one known case during this time period where two men had actually gotten married and that was in Egypt. Egypt at this time was seen as backwards because women were allowed to divorce, own property, have very important social positions, among other things. This is similar to one of the very big reasons why Galls were seen as barbaric as women were allowed to fight and have very important and sacred roles in their society. Homosexuality had been seen, at least mostly across the board as wrong but only because it made a man too much like a woman. Men having sex with one another at this time was a display of dominance. The mentality at the time in this region was that women were nothing more than property to be owned by men and free men should never be seen as property.
Untitled you’re so right. And did you know that gay men are at a higher risk of getting aids. More than 50 percent live with HIV. I studied about this first in college. It’s shocking how gays and their supporters don’t acknowledge this.
Witchy Poo did you know that gay and bisexual men are at a higher risk of getting aids? And syphillis. Look this up. It’s an epidemic among gay men. Sad!
One thing I don't think a lot of people who claim to be Christian truly understand is that there are MANY SINS that The Bible says that IF you DO NOT REPENT OF.....then you WILL NOT INHERIT the Kingdom of Heaven...... it even says if we do not become like LITTLE CHILDREN that we won't inherit the Kingdom of Heaven. As far as the OLD TESTAMENT and it's talk about STONING people to death for THIS or THAT and ALL of the OTHER so called SINS that were punishable by DEATH..... You have to remember that God sent a SAVIOR (Jesus Christ) and that when Jesus DIED on that cross FOR OUR SINS.....He ALONE took the punishment UPON HIMSELF that ALL of us DESERVED and STILL DESERVE to this day......once He proved that He had conquered death.....the OLD LAWS were DONE AWAY WITH because JESUS alread paid THE ULTIMATE PRICE and made THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE for US as SINNERS....while we were still sinners....Christ died for us....(The Bible says that WE ALL FALL SHORT of THE GLORY of GOD). I think John 3:16 sums it up rather well 😊 So there's really no reason to bring up the Old Testament unless you're going to it in search of all of the prophecies that were foretold during that time and then see how HUNDREDS if not MORE of them have since been FULFILLED and CONTINUE to be fulfilled to this day......Thank you Father for your son Jesus Christ who took upon Himself ALL that US SINNERS should have had to suffer through.
I can attest to this brother. Jesus Christ changed me. At a young age of 3 I lost my innocence but God had mercy on me. I renounce homosexuality and cut off all former sexual partners. I am now a New Creation in Christ and Jesus had mercy and gave me back what the enemy took from me. Now I am choosing obedience to God and will remain celibate until I meet my wife and I will love her like Christ loves the church.
Thank you so much! I am turning to God and repenting. It can be hard and messy and sin can be ugly. The Lord is powerful and merciful. Bless God! Bless you for your encouraging show!
I have been attracted to my whole life. I've prayed to God for deliverance, but to no avail .Please pray for my deliverance . Thanks, & God Bless you. ❤👍
There's nothing the Creator of the Heavens and the Earth cannot do. The more you read and find inspiration from the Bible, the less pressure you feel to do what's wrong. Look for a good Bible-believing and practicing church and belong. Jesus came to set the captives free! Your deliverance is certain!
Thank you for your testimony. I to have struggled and continue to. I wish it was as easy as saying I'm done with it. I still pray to God for it to go away. But hearing your story gives me hope.
WHEN DID YOU CHOOSE TO BE GAY? THEN GET OVER IT !!!!!!! UNLESS YOU WERE BORN GAY. GOD WILL NOT ALLOW YOU TO BECOME ANYTHING ELSE IF HE MADE YOU THAT WAY. SO, IN WHICH CATEGORY DO YOU FALL? OR IS SOMEONE WITH HIS/HERS POINT OF VIEW GOING TO TELL YOU HOW YOUR CREATION BY GOD WAS DONE ????? POINT IS: ACCEPT CHRIST, GET BAPTIZED, LIFE THE LIFE OF CHRIST WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT AND IT'S 9 GIFTS.... AND YOU ARE A CHILD OF GOD. DOES THE BIBLE SAY: TURN STRAIGHT AND YOUR'E OKY? OOPS. I HOPE YOU ALL THE BEST. GOD BLESS.
No one is born gay! It's Satan's deception. From the beginning it was not so! Matthew 19:3-8 It's God's will to deliver you completely. Cry unto Him with a sincere heart. He's closer than you think... God bless you!
Unless you've personally struggled with those feelings you have no idea how hard it is just to change. It's not a light switch you can simply turn off by praying. It's a daily battle for me and its the hardest thing I've ever faced.

@@periwinkleblue2 I have that feeling too especially looking at the other # of movies released. But praise God this story of changing hearts and minds is not unique but it all comes back on God is in control! And not our imperfect ways of living :)
i hope this interview inspires you into a deeper search for Christ Jesus so you can be set free from that bondage, complete freedom and peace. May the holy spirit lead you into complete deliverance. I really wish u deliverance. Wat happened to you is heart breaking, call on the savior to save u.
@Karey Landreneau it's so sad because they truly believe they do want to be gay - they're happy and content, and they don't realize how empty life is when you don't have a purpose, when your life has no other goal except to keep living. It's why so many kill themselves, and it breaks my heart to think that so many are spending eternity in torment because their eyes weren't opened 💔
@Aims Parry for sure, it's def not for me to decide. If it were up to me to decide, I would screw things up big time bc I'm a human. Which is why I'm thankful everything is for God to decide, and that He does decide, instead of leaving it up to us. Whatever we do has already been decided, like rn what I'm typing out has already been planned and the effects it has on other people have been determined by Him. (and btw, rereading my comment, I sound really really condescending and snotty like "oh WE know sm better than THEY do" - and I'm sorry I didn't word it better. I wasn't thinking about how others might read it, I was p much just thinking out loud because I used to be lost and I can't believe how different my life is because of knowing Him... but I still should have thought about how it reads to unbelievers instead of just being wrapped up in my experience)
More often than not the thread that seems to be common with these individuals is they were molested. So sad! I’m excited that God has turned him around 😊
Well first of you can't change your sexuality and secondly there is no relation between molestation and homosexuality homosexuality is a given trait like eye colour

I can't imagine the rejection he is experiencing in his former lgbt community. God, carry him through the storm.
@R Johnson Many in the community would be sad for him and upset but not hate him for it.
Rejection from the World lgbtqxyz is acceptance from God Almighty Lord Jesus Christ.

I can relate. I was praying in my bathroom when the Holy Spirit came over me, and all of a sudden, I was filled with the knowledge that God is real, Jesus is real, and I heard the words, " You are now adopted into my Kingdom". I was bawling, just like Becket. To God be the glory, He is just and merciful, and loved us first.
Praise God 🙌🙌🙌🙌 that is so powerful 🙏🙏❤️
Amen!
Where you delivered from homosexuality
This makes me so sad because I was molested for years as a child and it has impacted the rest of my life. I’m 46 now and I’ve had so many broken relationships with men and women unfortunately only to eventually realize we live in such a broken world and God never wanted this for us. Thank God for saving me outta my mess. Not saying everything is always wonderful but at least I know I have a future and eternity with my Savior. 🙏🏽❤️
I love how God redeems not just our future but also our past! I know he’ll bring much needed healing to you as he has for me! 😊
Amen!
God loves you!
Amen!
When the holy spirit leads you then you will immediately know the difference between right and wrong.
C'est Σ Hope you find fellowship in your walk with Christ! Also God promises that if you seek Him, you will find Him! And God always keeps His promises!
The gospel means that you can never do what’s right, that you’re enslaved by sin, apart from God. So Jesus did all the work for you, so that you could be free to have a relationship with God!
Amen
Amen
Wow .
Before encountering Christ, I used to feel the same way, I felt empty and void in the inside and my life had literally no meaning. But thanks to God the Father, today I’m saved and washed clean.
This “Jesus thing” is real!!!
Exactly!! Just today I was thinking... what do people do when they don't believe in God? How do you survive the crushing despair or discouragement? We are so blessed to be shown God's saving Grace 😔🙏
@@surroundsounds I survive it pretty well because I have family and friends that I love🙃people don't need god to be fulfilled
@@analigiabatres9114 People do need God to be fulfilled, these things are true, and real
@@applefarm6126 cool story bro. That's why my dad leads a happy life with a woman he loves and work he enjoys, right? Oh wait he's atheist so that isn't possible right? F*ck off
I love how he says he instantly knew the meaning of life. I also totally understand the whole thing about his identity. It’s interesting how there’s all these little things in our lives that we use to try to define who we are. But our true identity Is in Christ. We will never truly know who we are until we know who we are in Christ. It’s really something only the Holy Spirit can reveal to you.
Amen! I totally understand.
What is the name of this christian believe??? Im also christian but never experienced this like other chritians!
Jessica N you were made by God and for God. You belong to him. You are so incredibly valuable to him. There is no one else on earth like you. You were fearfully and wonderfully made. You are not defined by skin color, culture, race, illness, career, intelligence, accomplishments or mistakes. You are who he says you are. He went to great lengths and willingly gave his own life in place of yours because he loves you that much. Knowing this about him creates a desire in your heart to reciprocate that love and strive to be all that God created you to be!! ☺️😉 That’s honestly just the “tip of the iceberg”
@@jessicac_k268 it is because it is more so a relationship than just a belief. We first believe, cultivate what we believe and in whom we believe and then we receive. Talk with Jesus, be honest, the same way you would talk to a friend, parent, etc. Be blessed. ☺️
Jenny Rose , I love how you commented on this ! As our sexuality doesn’t define who we are !
I could stop crying either...in one instant the Holy Spirit moves in us and everything changes. Praise the Lord.
Amen.

I felt the same outpouring of love and peace the moment I was born again. It was the most amazing feeling I've ever felt. The feeling of pure love and peace surrounding me and fulfilling my soul. I was transformed and truly born again, a new creature in Christ. I love hearing others describe the same feeling I had after repentance and faith! Praise God!
I love how he said his Christian parents were sweet & loving about it. Versus condemning and kicking him out etc. the goodness of God Leads to repentance
Never let your kids sleepover anywhere.
Yupp, I thank God that I have parents like that. That could've easily happened to me if they hadn't.
Yep my mum never let me. Even though she knew some of my friends' parents she just couldn't esp when I was younger.
Centurion Guards Oh my goodness....thank you for saying that...even going to the park without parental supervision. And, am I correct that this is a sanctioned perverse lifestyle choice (homosexuality), practiced by some Boy Scout Leaders?? You are not safe anywhere!! I met an elderly man who told me his little girl was sexually molested in the basement of a church by a church leader, and it devastated her and still devastated this elderly man. I am not catholic, but there is NO WAY I would want my son to be an altar boy, choir boy or give ANYONE the opportunity in that environment to make, my son his "boy toy"!! THERE ARE JEFFREY EPSTEINS lurking in every PERCEIVED safe place in our world today. What about the PORNOGRAPHY that kids are being introduced to either intentionally (even by their own sick parents), or accidentally stumbling across it at a friends or relatives home. I know an individual who carries scars to this day from stumbling into pornography at an age so young and so easily confused and impressionable. This story by CBN was incredibly uplifting, inspirational, and socially challenging!!
Exactly y my parents wouldn't let me go to sleep overs
This is a foolish statement, you can't honestly believe excessive sheltering can be beneficial to a child, with educated reasoning and knowing of the parents your child will be going to stay with for the night there is nothing wrong with that.
born again and delivered into Jesus loving arms. he came to set the captives free. Glory to God!
The interviewer is interrupting too much let the man talk a bit
Right like she telling the story before he could!! Lol
*Brittany Blessed* ~ It's an half hour show, so lots to squeeze (literally) in during the time slot. And they do this with all their interviewees.. such a pain in the neck!
That's exactly how I felt!
I scrolled through the comments to find this lol
Seriously. I want her to shut up so I can listen.
His story once again confirms what the Lord says in the Bible...He Calls you to Him and it's not our doing. The Lord is sovereign and His Will, will be done.
He calls but it's our choice to accept.

His parents were probably praying for him.
I think they were!
They did
Soooo true
The interviewer sounds like she's taking over but it's because she only has an alloted time to do the interview, so she is trying to lead him to get to the main point of the testimony. It isn't easy to do.
Yes, I can hear her leading into what will achieve best ratings.
Yes, that’s her job. I don’t think it’s so much about “ratings” as she wanted to get to the most crucial parts of his story in the limited time allotted.
I felt she took over most of the conversation and did not let him talk as freely as he should but then it's true, she has limited time. It's not easy at all to do but she can do better.
One thing I respect so much in this life: HONESTY and this man has that! Thank you so much sir for being so transparent. God bless you so much Sir. May God continue increase you. 💪🔥❤️😘
What was the point of having him on the show if she was going to answer the questions herself and not let him speak??🤔🤔
Exactly, sometimes they do that, and I'm like.... -_-
Camillie Collins,
I think🤔 she may have had a certain time LIMIT to interview him and pushed him along to get him to quickly answer the main questions related to his book and to get to the point of the main reason for the interview.
When you run a talk show you have to control the dialogue.
She had to help not run down "rabbit trails" and keep him on track for a certain amount of time ...
Don't be a spoiler, she is doing what big boys call , a facilitator.
The same this happen to me when I accepted Jesus as my Lord and savior. The Holy spirit came upon me. it was an amazing feeling. I knew I was changed that instant and my new life in Christ had begun.
Hlo
Can we talk on personal
Childhood experiences have a great impact on our lives as we grow ...May God heal each and everyone listening to this testimony...........
That was awesome...when the spirit hits you like that...wow
.
IT IS🤗ITS A PURE RELEASE😭
She's a terrible interviewer. Keeps interrupting just when he gets going.
Wrong, she’s moving the interview along in the time frame they have
I think she had a time limit she had to work within for that segment.
Agreed! The way to handle a short interview time frame is to ask a few powerful questions that help his story unfold. She asked too many questions and it interrupted the flow. Great story/testimony.
Yes. When the Holy Spirit hits you it is Amazing ❤
Thanks!
thank you very much!
Becket’s story shows why truth must be paired with compassion. You just don’t know the trauma that people carry around with them. Praising God for you and the courage to tell your story.
Props to the bible study people in the cafe. Let your light shine.
Good reminder. His account made me think that I should be more bold in sharing with people but to do it in a way that is kind and loving towards them. But they were also loving enough to tell him the TRUTH.
We gotta stop hiding behind the church walls all the time. Start talking with people, smile, have Bible studies with fellow believers, show kindness and that helps to open the door for witnessing Jesus Christ!❤
Amen
I love these stories of redemption!
I am a Christian of 20 years, and it really saddens me when people conjure up what they believe is the “homosexual lifestyle.” Sexual promiscuity, pornography adultery and polygamy are not congruent with being gay, those are completely separate from gayness and they don’t come with it as a side effect. It’s my prayer that God works on some of your hearts and you’ll realize that personal bias and a mix of bad decisions is not synonymous with sexuality.
The description of homosexuality as a lifestyle is a blatent oversimplification of human sexuality in general and homosexuality in particular. The reason for this indoctrination of the collective societal psyche is paramount to the self validating delusion of heterosexuality possessing moral validity. The reason that we never hear the term " heterosexual lifestyle" is because there is no need to catogorize heterosexuality with such inherent connotative oversimplification in order to subconciously justify contempt and hatred through subjective comparison.
@@christopherscheiber1439 such big words. do you feel like you're smart? haha, on the contrary...

Do not ever let your kids spend the night anywhere. PERIOD
Not even in their homes. In fact, don't even let them sleep!
So true. Every moment should be spent devoted to prayer to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Jesus rose from the dead, no beds in this Holy house!
One of my uncles was abused by the stepfather for many years. He is gay now and lives with another man. Please, pray for his conversion. I know he was not born gay, the abuses caused this. He was a lovely and healthy boy before all this terrible thing happen to him 💔🙏😭
Lord, please, save him!
🙏🏼🙏🏼
homophobe
this whole page is insane. Who are you to judge your uncle. God says not to judge each other but forgive me but isn’t that what you are doing by praying for his conversion? I’m 100% a Christian. Im a soldier in the Salvation Army but i am also pansexual. Meaning I fall for whoever. Man or women. And My 8 ur old knows she’s free to love men or women.
Just consider not judging. Understand him.
You're right to pray for your uncle. It's criminal what happened to him.
These molesters of children destroy lives. But there is hope for redemption.
God bless you and your uncle.
@@yesinichole - Pansexuality!! The latest 'trendy' bandwagon it seems to be fashionable to hop on for the highly suggestible and easily led! As for being 100% Christian, no; you're a 'Pick 'n' Mix' Christian, which is very convenient for the 'Do what thou wilt' brigade. No discipline nor logic required!! Absurd!
Beckett, thank you so much for sharing your story ! I am trying to tell one of my friends about Jesus and his saving grace . My friend is 80 years old and was a clothing designer/ maker - had her own shop in the East Village for 12 years - but now needs freedom and peace to go to her eternal home . Your words have encouraged me not to give up sharing the Word with her ....
I have struggled at times with bi sexual feelings but I've noticed that it's at its worst when I've been hurt by a man ie my ex husband and ex fiance. I thank God for being with me and giving me Christian friends and family to love. And a sense of purpose and peace beyond the husband and children I had hoped for.
That’s why I have animals and my children in my life because animals love you unconditionally and never let you down .I have my children to and they make me laugh. Animals are just love then when I go to heaven I want to be with all of the abused abandoned unwanted boarded and loved animals and children forever and just play with them and laugh
@@kathyr.8135 that’s understandable (I had a loving Labrador too) but the only entity that can show you 100% unconditional love 24/7 is actually God.
God delivered me from homosexuality! :D
Praise God for His amazing grace lavished on us!! 😔 His mercies are new every morning - what a miracle that He would save such wicked people like us! I'm so glad to have you as a sibling in Christ and praying that you would be strengthened by Him, surrounded by those who uplift and edify you! You have a wonderful testimony worth sharing, don't ever be ashamed of Him who saved you!! ❤️
Amen, all things are possible in God!
God Is Great 🙏🙏🙏
No he didn't, because God does not exist and you can't quit being gay.
Hallelujah!!!
What an incredible testimony...goosebumps!!!
What I love about this story is his parents didn’t kick him out! I love how their parents remembered that love is the greatest commandment instead of resorting to condemning them all together simplify because he was gay. Jesus would have not condemned a homosexual, instead he would have said “come follow me.” Just like everybody else. Homosexuality does not get it’s special treatment, because we are all sinners In the eyes of God.
It's NOT a sin.
Please block out more time for stories like this. The host rushed through way too fast. This story is too important to rush.
Clearly reading the comments most people are misinformed about gay people. I for one have NEVER been sexually abused and neither have any of my gay friends. We have spoken about this many times openly. I knew I was different for a very young age. I knew nothing about gay or the word gay. But I knew I felt very uncomfortable with woman when it comes to emotional things. Like holding hands, kissing etc. I also believe that yes there is people that turns out gay and is not actually gay. They gay from, yes abuse, confused etc. So please don't comment as if you know every single gay person in the world.
Some people suppress memories or feelings to the point where they can completely forget them.
And as for being born gay, there isn't a proven gay gene. People are a product of their situation and surroundings.
Not trying to pick a fight or to be right, just speaking from experience.
I can relate to you
Its fear!
Correct brother - the happy gays are usually the "natural gays"
Most have

Praise God! The angels in heaven are praising God for this!
I love testimonies like this, PTL, but this interviewer is really rushing him and not giving him time to express himself. She is asking too many questions for such a short segment. Also, doesn't really share his emotions.
Awesome testimony, I am so glad he reclaimed his true God given identity. The truth set him free.
Sad, sad, sad. Hope one day he is able to accept his true self as a gay man.
Amen!
Not to start a fight, I truly want to know - I see a lot of people saying "if (gay person) is happy, who cares which gender they marry/are attracted to?" And I'm curious, if this man is happy as a Christian, why is it sad to you?
@Surround Sound We feel that he so afraid of hell that he is lying to himself & now to others as well. I can tell you that it is incredibly common for that to happen. & they often say that they still struggle with gay desires. That alone says that are in denial of who they are. No one canbe happy living in fear in hell for being themselves
Agree - he is underneath it all a very sad person
I love his testimony!!!!!!!!!!! I love you Beckett though we haven't even met
Becket is a precious soul. God bless him in all areas of his life.
What an awsome testimony...I cried listening to how the Holy Spirit came over you in such a powerful way! The interview should be longer...
Love this guy The proof of prayers of mothers
This is awesome! I love it. I'm so glad he decided to change his lifestyle. It's stories like this that give us hope and helps us to remember how powerful God is! We just have to allow him to work in our lives. He can deliver us from ANYTHING! I'm just so happy for this man. He has been blessed 💟

One can change their behavior, that does not change their fundamental sexual orientation. I have known gay men who could only function sexually with their wives by thinking of the male anatomy. They are still gay. Just as men in prison who can only function sexually with men while thinking about the female anatomy are still heterosexual.
What a wonderful story of God's work! Glory to His name now and forever.
Please pray for my brother
I’m trans and gay. Never molested. Never done drugs. Not alcoholic. Not empty or unfulfilled. Happily monogamously married. Have fun fitting that into your narrative. The big difference is I don’t deal with unjust guilt because I’m not a Christian. Poor guy getting sucked in to this cult through their emotional manipulation. If he’s happy, yay for him, but I hope he doesn’t reach the end of his life and realize he wasted his brief time alive denying his natural attraction over a lie.
Mainstream Christianity doesn't fit the characteristics of a cult.. God loves you, but we are all sinners. Some of us sin in different ways. He wasn't guilty about his sexuality before, he was empty. When man is seperated from God we feel that way. I hope you will know more about God soon, have a beautiful day brother ♥️
ya s 1. I’m not anyone’s “brother”, I’d have to be male for that. I’m not even YOUR sister.
2. I’m not going to argue semantics. It’s a group of humans psychologically manipulating someone into believing they feel “empty” or “sick” and offering a fake cure to a disease they don’t have. It’s a lie. We are not all “sinners”. Being gay harms no one.
3. If you have to try to be straight, you’re not.
@@alphi4868
1.) You're not getting the point. It's not about gender, rather than a term of endearment to others. I don't know if I have misgendered you, but I assumed brother because you said you were gay.

2.) Bring gay doesn't harm anything, it is something between you and God and His intended purpose. I vehemently disagree w you the empty part. Millions of people feel 'empty,' without having anything to do with religion. There's depression and anxiety. This man wasn't guilt tripped by anyone before he decided to go to church. Who radically changes their identity and belief system after one simple church visit, unless it's something real. And we are all sinners. Name ONE person who is perfect?
3.) Sexuality isn't fixed, it's fluid. there is no denying that..
@@yas3957 Sexuality can change on the surface, but the roots of the gender(s) you are attracted to don't change.
I battled with many things in my life due to sexual abuse trauma. I hope and pray that you all are healed and delivered and find the truth. Don’t allow the world to tell you that being with the same sex is okay because God doesn’t approve of it. No sin is greater than the next sin is sin. Just please don’t believe that you can sin and be comfortable in it and God says it’s okay. We will all be judged and you have to work out your own salvation and study yourself to find the truth.
Being gay is just a wiring of your brain. Spirituality and believing in God is a power of love, and it is beyond human capacity. The holy spirit fills us with this power that all humans are fullfilled and empowered by and spread through and onto others. We become one
I’m sadden to read all the comments. I believe in god and Jesus Christ his son. I also believe he loves me as his child and as I am. I pray for you all to have a forgiveness in your heart and cast no judgement amen.
Aw I'm sorry that people have ruined this for you 😔 I've only seen positive comments praising Him for His wonderful grace, I'm sorry it didn't encourage you.
And ik I'm only one person, but if it makes you feel any better, judging this man is last on my mind. As for forgiveness, I don't think he needs mine - he's already been forgiven by God, and that is all that matters! ❤️
Beautiful testimony. Praise God
just wow. I wanna pray for him he just seems actually very genuine

I love his testimony. God bless you!
Love this man! God bless you Becket!
I accept Matthew 19:12 as evidence for being born this way. Jesus replies to why some men wont marry women. He says “For there are eunuchs who were born that way, and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by others--and there are those who choose to live like eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. The one who can accept this should accept it."
💕💕💕 I love how powerfully the Lord has changed your life Becket! I could listen to testimonies like this all day!💕💕💕
But hearing his story I would think he would dislike men be against dating men coming up not wanting to date them because of what happened to him during his childhood. Also GOD saved his soul/ salvation that very night at that party this is why he started to look across the room and said “ What am I doing here” GOD was working on him the entire time. ❤️🙏❤️🙏
That's the impact of trauma - the experience was so painful that your psyche has no better way of dealing with it than eroticising your pain. It may also lead someone to reject their male / female identity
Trauma is a very strange thing, trust me, there’s no logic to it.
This mans story is amazing! I want to read his book.
You have no idea how many times I've heard this story. I mean, a boy gets molested and ends up gay or a child molester. In Romans 1, it states that everything that happens in the natural realm also occurs in the spiritual realm. When molesting takes place, it unleashes demonic attachment to that person. Before they realize it, they believe they are gay, or desire to be a molester. Or both.
It goes for lesbians or bicurious people. That’s what happened to me. I never had sex with a woman but I have had obsessive scary thoughts about it that abusive therapists and family and friends I told I was abused sexually by a female classmate during a friend gathering when I was sitting and many girls were around me and we were fully clothed and she abused us all told me

Read first Corinthians 6:9-10 on what GOD who sends us to heaven or hell what HE SAYS about homosexuality! It says Homosexuals will NOT inherit the kingdom of heaven. Repent bf it's too late like this man did. This is great! So proud he is standing up for the truth ❤️🙌 Glory to God for healing our sins !
@ Madeline Russell it also says that disobedient sons should be stoned to death. Deuteronomy 21: 18-21. Some things just aren’t done anymore because it hurts people even what they did was wrong they don’t deserve such a severe punishment. Being LGBTQ+ doesn’t hurt anyone, so why care about how someone else loves if no one is getting hurt?
@MsMarian Rogers I completely agree. The only time it was seen as acceptable for two men to be physical with one another, was when a young boy starting at about 14 was being taught how to be a man by an older male who would teach him how to fight among other things. There is only one known case during this time period where two men had actually gotten married and that was in Egypt. Egypt at this time was seen as backwards because women were allowed to divorce, own property, have very important social positions, among other things. This is similar to one of the very big reasons why Galls were seen as barbaric as women were allowed to fight and have very important and sacred roles in their society. Homosexuality had been seen, at least mostly across the board as wrong but only because it made a man too much like a woman. Men having sex with one another at this time was a display of dominance. The mentality at the time in this region was that women were nothing more than property to be owned by men and free men should never be seen as property.
Untitled you’re so right. And did you know that gay men are at a higher risk of getting aids. More than 50 percent live with HIV. I studied about this first in college. It’s shocking how gays and their supporters don’t acknowledge this.
Witchy Poo did you know that gay and bisexual men are at a higher risk of getting aids? And syphillis. Look this up. It’s an epidemic among gay men. Sad!
One thing I don't think a lot of people who claim to be Christian truly understand is that there are MANY SINS that The Bible says that IF you DO NOT REPENT OF.....then you WILL NOT INHERIT the Kingdom of Heaven...... it even says if we do not become like LITTLE CHILDREN that we won't inherit the Kingdom of Heaven. As far as the OLD TESTAMENT and it's talk about STONING people to death for THIS or THAT and ALL of the OTHER so called SINS that were punishable by DEATH..... You have to remember that God sent a SAVIOR (Jesus Christ) and that when Jesus DIED on that cross FOR OUR SINS.....He ALONE took the punishment UPON HIMSELF that ALL of us DESERVED and STILL DESERVE to this day......once He proved that He had conquered death.....the OLD LAWS were DONE AWAY WITH because JESUS alread paid THE ULTIMATE PRICE and made THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE for US as SINNERS....while we were still sinners....Christ died for us....(The Bible says that WE ALL FALL SHORT of THE GLORY of GOD). I think John 3:16 sums it up rather well 😊 So there's really no reason to bring up the Old Testament unless you're going to it in search of all of the prophecies that were foretold during that time and then see how HUNDREDS if not MORE of them have since been FULFILLED and CONTINUE to be fulfilled to this day......Thank you Father for your son Jesus Christ who took upon Himself ALL that US SINNERS should have had to suffer through.
Thank you for this video 700 Club, and of course thanks for sharing your story Becket Cook. God bless you all.
You are a very handsome man smart whitty fun worldly and God loves you. I'm so happy for you!!! Congratulations!!!
I can attest to this brother. Jesus Christ changed me. At a young age of 3 I lost my innocence but God had mercy on me. I renounce homosexuality and cut off all former sexual partners. I am now a New Creation in Christ and Jesus had mercy and gave me back what the enemy took from me. Now I am choosing obedience to God and will remain celibate until I meet my wife and I will love her like Christ loves the church.
Amazing all powerful Lord God, he changes people. He changed me. Thank Lord Jesus Christ for your unfailing love.

WHEN DID YOU CHOOSE TO BE GAY? THEN GET OVER IT !!!!!!! UNLESS YOU WERE BORN GAY. GOD WILL NOT ALLOW YOU TO BECOME ANYTHING ELSE IF HE MADE YOU THAT WAY. SO, IN WHICH CATEGORY DO YOU FALL? OR IS SOMEONE WITH HIS/HERS POINT OF VIEW GOING TO TELL YOU HOW YOUR CREATION BY GOD WAS DONE ????? POINT IS: ACCEPT CHRIST, GET BAPTIZED, LIFE THE LIFE OF CHRIST WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT AND IT'S 9 GIFTS.... AND YOU ARE A CHILD OF GOD. DOES THE BIBLE SAY: TURN STRAIGHT AND YOUR'E OKY? OOPS. I HOPE YOU ALL THE BEST. GOD BLESS.
No one is born gay! It's Satan's deception. From the beginning it was not so! Matthew 19:3-8
It's God's will to deliver you completely. Cry unto Him with a sincere heart. He's closer than you think... God bless you!
@@olivew.o.j2497 GO READ YOUR BIBLE AND STOP MAKING UP STORIES ABOUT THE BIBLE. END OF SUBJECT. !!!
Unless you've personally struggled with those feelings you have no idea how hard it is just to change. It's not a light switch you can simply turn off by praying. It's a daily battle for me and its the hardest thing I've ever faced.
@@geoffreydunn8451 how are you certain that it will ever change, that thats really what god wants? just out of curiosty from someone in the same position
When he mentioned the Holy Spirit I felt the spirit at that moment, nothing like the gospel
Ahh he just seems so happy now, real struggle, and he got a real answer
He was the youngest of 8 kids, consistent with Blanchard's theory... He also still speaks with gay voice
With GOD all things are possible!!!
Jesus loves gay people. The true love puts all the fears aside. Eternity with the Lord will be the real glamour.
Jesus loves all who do wrong. DOESNT mean keep doing it
Amazing story and God's Great Great Work, but it felt as if the lady had a train to catch! Have him talk please...
*Ynet SV* ~ Feels like the interest is in the sexuality rather than the story of him finding his Christ faith. I get the sexuality informs the journey, but still too much emphasis on the former.
@@periwinkleblue2 I have that feeling too especially looking at the other # of movies released. But praise God this story of changing hearts and minds is not unique but it all comes back on God is in control! And not our imperfect ways of living :)
Thank you for a wonderful testimony brother! Praise the Lord.
I was molested by my uncle and I had the exact same thoughts that if I told my dad he would kill my uncle and he would be in prison because of me.
i hope this interview inspires you into a deeper search for Christ Jesus so you can be set free from that bondage, complete freedom and peace. May the holy spirit lead you into complete deliverance. I really wish u deliverance. Wat happened to you is heart breaking, call on the savior to save u.
May the lord bless you and protect you from all evil ❤️🙏🏽
I was sexual abused by my uncle as a child! But is this to do with homosexual! My uncle was not gay who rape as a child! He was straight!
Such a powerful encounter with truth.
The Lord didn't change me during 20 years of trying. Maybe He doesn't mind me the way I am after all...
God loves us all as we are I believe. Pls dont live beating yourself up or anything.
God is LOVE, acceptance and forgiveness.
Bless you ❤🙏
@@OzmaOfOzz Thanks!
@@joepugh678 do NOT change your sexuality you will have a fake and unfullfilling life
@@BMcCosmic Well, I learned that the hard way!
@@joepugh678 BTW I mean gay to straight I'm pro LGBT
Bravo to you Becket Cook!Hey you...Cook is my maiden name!I'm one of your youtube subs!Praying for you daily Becket!
These people are not gay they are lost to God we should pray for them
@Karey Landreneau it's so sad because they truly believe they do want to be gay - they're happy and content, and they don't realize how empty life is when you don't have a purpose, when your life has no other goal except to keep living. It's why so many kill themselves, and it breaks my heart to think that so many are spending eternity in torment because their eyes weren't opened 💔
@Aims Parry you are so right it is your right to make that digression God gave you free will
@Aims Parry for sure, it's def not for me to decide. If it were up to me to decide, I would screw things up big time bc I'm a human. Which is why I'm thankful everything is for God to decide, and that He does decide, instead of leaving it up to us. Whatever we do has already been decided, like rn what I'm typing out has already been planned and the effects it has on other people have been determined by Him.
(and btw, rereading my comment, I sound really really condescending and snotty like "oh WE know sm better than THEY do" - and I'm sorry I didn't word it better. I wasn't thinking about how others might read it, I was p much just thinking out loud because I used to be lost and I can't believe how different my life is because of knowing Him... but I still should have thought about how it reads to unbelievers instead of just being wrapped up in my experience)
Hallelujah! I love this beautiful story of redemption and so very grateful for living examples of the word like this 🙌🏾💓
More often than not the thread that seems to be common with these individuals is they were molested. So sad! I’m excited that God has turned him around 😊
Well first of you can't change your sexuality and secondly there is no relation between molestation and homosexuality homosexuality is a given trait like eye colour
BMcCosmic Are you just regurgitating what you were brain washed to believe?
@@florence3448 no are you cause it seems like it since I'm using facts and religion refutes them with no evidence you just believe
@@florence3448 no, dumbass, its the truth
Wow! This is powerful! Love this testimony!!! 🙌🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 praise God!
This dude should stay the way he is. I like him being gay.
Maybe LA is his problem. Lots of chilled gay guys in western australia
That’s.. a messed up think to say
