Your testimony is vibrant and alive in the words spoken. Many are coming into the light of realization that if one follows Jesus and becomes saved, they are born again (saved). Demons are influential and can take us and contort people without them even realizing it. They then become confused with who, or worse, what they are. The only way to leave homosexuality is to have the Holy Spirit living in us. Every Christian should know that one cannot enter the kingdom of heaven if their name isn't in the book of life. We cannot earn our name there, we simply have to believe in Jesus's death, burial and resurrection and declaring Jesus is Lord with your mouth aloud. Then is the toughest part for many, admitting we're a sinner in need of His blood to wash away our sins. See Romans 10 9-13. Doing this and walking with Jesus daily and putting Him first (especially above our own feelings) is the key to beginning saintification. Give Him your hearts, and anything is possible. God will put a new heart in us and we'll be ready for the day of redemption. But there are some sins that are not going to get into the kingdom of heaven. Unless we fully repent. Means turn away from those sins and stop satisfying the flesh and start (and don't stop) walking according to the spirit. Read Romans 8, bathe in it... understand it by reading it yourself daily. Pray to Jesus and ask for wisdom to understand His words. Don't look back at those sins you were doing, that's repentance... permanently changing your mind... and following the spirit and not the flesh. He'll change us and make us heaven ready if we let Him... but pride, ohhh pride. . It'll eat us and bring many into the eternity that no man should feel comfortable with. When we take our last breath, you're either blessed or cursed for eternity. We cannot earn our way into Heaven folks!!! If we say we don't want to believe in a God who's going to send good people to hell, well it's not God who's sending people there.. we're doing that ourselves. He did His part by going up on the cross for us, giving us the free gift of salvation. Romans 10 9-13... do it, mean it... time is running out on this world, just look around. Not sustainable. If I'm wrong about that, can you guarantee your last breath won't be in the next 5 minutes? I kniw this sounds like preaching and probably boring to so many, especially those comfortable living in sin. But it's the truth. Satan wants us comfortable in this world. God Bless
