Same-sex Attraction

There is a difference from being gay and being attracted to the same sex. Many people group these two very different things together as the same thing, as one. When you are gay then you have decided to be in relationships with the same sex. Having an attraction with the same sex, on the other hand, does not mean you are now gay. This attraction, aside from what the masses would like to believe, doesn’t occur at birth. No one is born this way. With same-sex attraction, the individual can seek help to learn how to remove these temptations from his or her life. They must remember, though, not to act on these impulses, for the Lord clearly states that marriage is to be between a man and a woman.
