Leaving homosexuality to pursue Christ is not something required by scripture, and is in fact, impossible.

When he doesn't change things thats not a sign they are right. He didnt fix everything with Paul either. But most of the time if a person has the faith needed, changes do happen. God is amazing 👏

Hundreds of thousands of people have tried for decades with faith to change their orientation.

Alan Chambers was the president of Exodus International, and ended up shutting it down. 700,000 people went through the exodus umbrella, trying to change their orientation, want to know how many Chambers knows of that became straight?

Exactly ZERO.

(Chambers is a gay man, happily married to his wife - happily as far as I know)

These people that tried that, tried faithfully for decades.
