I'm a girl, and I have a crush on a girl. I know that the bible says homosexuality is wrong, but is having a crush on her wrong, or would it only be wrong if I were to persue her? You can't help who you're attracted to. I know that now because I definately don't want tobe attracted to her. Am I sinning when it's not a feeling I can control?

no, dont worry about it!! i talked to my pastor last night at church about this! i am going through the same thing!! he said that yes its a sin and no god will love you no less!!!!! a couple of phrases pop into mind
1) "once saved, always saved"
2) "better loved than lost"

this guy once came to speak at my school, when he was younger, he thought he was gay, but it turned out he wasn't. Maybe it's really strong admiration or something? i'm just suggesting, but in my opinion it shouldn't be wrong, it's something natural.

Whoa whoa on the 'once saved, always saved' deal. That's not in my Bible. Man said that, not God. God doesn't care if you've prayed the "sinner's prayer," He wants to see if you meant it.

Back to the subject, the sin is not that you have a crush on this other girl, the sin is that you're focus isn't on God and you're leaving Him out of it. I'm not blaming you, but do you know how bad that makes him feel? Yes, it is very possible to hurt God's heart, he just takes it. His spirit envies this other girl so intensely (James 4:5), and he wishes you were attracted to him like that. So yeah I guess my point is it doesn't really make sense to God that you are attracted to this girl, and not him, when he can offer anything she can and much much much more. That's the only sin he's upset about.

From what I understand from The Bible it is wrong to have this crush and this is what I'm going to say: Nobody is perfect and our minds sometimes wander to places/things that aren't righteous. This is because the enemy, while most definitely not as powerful as God by any means, can place unholy thoughts in our mind. Now, he can't read our mind but he can see what we do and act upon that. If we stare at someone or just happen to glance at something by accident the enemy can throw a whole lot of bad things into our brain. Okay, the words "you can't help who you're attacted to" and "you aren't in control" are just lies of Satan meant to steer people astray and give in to their flesh. Remember that anything is possible with Christ who strenghtens you.


["No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it." - 1 Corinthians 10:13]

["My son, if sinners entice you, do not consent." - Proverbs 1:10]

["Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak." - Matthew 26:41]

^-^ The bible doesn't say homosexuality is wrong, neither does it say that having gay sex is wrong, as long as you do it within the confines of marriage.

So, if you have a crush on a girl, all I'm going to say is to make sure she's lesbian before chasing her. And you can PM me for more information on the biblical aspect; that goes for everyone else in the guild too.

I don't know if you're really bi. This "crush" you feel for another girl may not even really exist. I'm a girl IRL and I have a girl as a best friend. I love and admire here, but it's purely a friendship love. Think about how Jesus and the 12 disciples loved each other. You may admire this girl, or love her in a non-sexual way. Then, you aren't bi at all and you're "loving your neighbor." If you are lusting after this girl or her body, THEN it's a sin.

In Romans Paul states that "Men and women turn away from what is natural and lust after one another" in I believe chapter 2 (forgive me, I can never remember the exact chapter). And in Genesis God destroys the city of Sodom because of the men's homosexuality.

People tend to judge people who are different. I personally am sick of it.

Okay, if you think the author is wrong, why don't you refute his points? Remember to use original languages, cite scriptures, and link us to any sources for your arguments. ^-^

Also, cite me the verse where "God is sickened by homosexuals".
