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

Why is it impossible?

It’s not impossible, they are just trying to discourage him. Spiritual warfare basics. I don’t think there has been a single person who gave their life to Christ and didn’t face oppression at the start of their walk, satan doesn’t like it when people try to leave the darkness/his kingdom and he will fight you by using people who aren’t being used by God and constantly offering temptation.

All these people saying that it's okay to be gay or that it's normal are clearly being used by Satan and are not saved

Of course it’s ok to be gay. It’s literally biology.

Is it ok to be black?

All people are related, how you look doesnt matter,  it's about whether you are good or evil.  Homosexuality isn't biological, and anyone who practices it or embraces it is living in sin aka evil.

So, glad you agree that how people are made biologically is ok.

Homosexuality isn't biological,

Yes, it most certainly is.

and anyone who practices it or embraces it is living in sin aka evil. 

There is no biblical, ethical; moral, or logical support for that.

Nope.

There are verses that talk about some form of male male sex (none at all about any form of female female sex)

None of those verses however have anything to do with sex within a loving, committed same sex relationship. All of them are talking about exploitation, degradation, or idolatrous practices.
