The first two human beings God made were Adam and Eve—a male and a female. As a man and a woman, God made them to enjoy an exclusive relationship with each other, different from all other relationships they would have. As a man and a woman committed to one another for life in a covenant before God (which we call marriage), they would become as one person.
The Bible says, “Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh” (Genesis 2:24). This union happens in sex. From this special relationship, families would be formed and nurtured, societies would be established, and God’s love for His people would be demonstrated by example of this committed and complementary relationship.
Homosexuality—the sexual union between two people of the same sex—goes against all of God’s plan for the unique relationship He set up for the man and the woman in the beginning. Instead of fostering love and security in a covenant (that is, committed forever) relationship and family, it promotes confusion, disorder, and sickness—while also failing to bring forth life. Homosexuality is not God’s intended way for humans, and therefore He commands against it in the Bible. “You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination” (Leviticus 18:22). Many may say that they were born homosexual, but through Jesus Christ, every person can be born again!
This is what salvation is, through faith in Jesus Christ: you die to your old self, sins, and desires, and you are born again in Jesus Christ, who was perfect and lived to please God. If this is what you want, confess and renounce (that is, leave) your sins and your old way of homosexuality and ask God to free you from it. Nothing is too big for God; He can save you from anything.
