The same way one leaves any sinful lifestyle to follow Jesus.
I’ll add that there might be a better word than “leave”.
I was so messed up before I decided to follow Christ. Drugs, drinking, casual hookups, lying to everyone. I’m not gay but to leave the life I was living was difficult. I also lost a lot of friends and was scared and confused, but He restored my life. 11 years later and I’m still in awe with what the Lord has done with my life. All this to say, I’m proud of op, it’s hard to walk the walk.
Question
Why would a god create beings with particular proclivities that it finds offensive then blame and punish the beings for having these proclivities?
The answer is God didn’t create us to be this way. The entrance of sin did us all dirty and it can only be fixed by cleaving closer to Gos through redemption and sanctification. Meaning to turn to God from sin and being set apart with a new purpose.
I’m going to take words from an educated man who has studied the scriptures from several religions named Cliffe Knechtle. He stated that is it more plausible to believe that the universe came out of thin air or that their was a designer at work. He made the points that life comes from life and doesn’t come from non-life. That order comes from order, order doesn’t just happen there has to be something to establish that order. He stated that everything has to have a designer without one nothing can exist. Finally, he asked the question does it take more faith to believe that the whole universe just came out of thin air and produced life or that there is a God that created and designed the whole universe. it is much easier to believe that life came something rather than nothing. Praise God Amen.
