    How does a Christian parent handle a "gay" child?
  • Adam - In Reply on Ephesians 2 - 4 years ago
    It's my opinion that homosexuality is a choice just like any other sin. It should be made clear that it's evil and wrong. Society works hard to convince people that sin is ok, like this, killing babies, fornication, adultery, profanity. So, a parent must work overtime to counteract those messages and shield someone from the deception and lies.

    It's also my opinion that having gay feelings is a result of nurture, not nature. No one is born with it. In almost all cases the one with same sex attraction has had drama with their parents which prompted them to associate one gender with negative emotions and the other with positive ones. The liberal media/movies/music/culture has the same forces. Friends/peer pressure has forces. There are many persuasive forces to counteract that can color someone's perceptions and associations of things. However, the good news is people can change their associations of anything through regular practice. Most people assume they are victims of their own associations as if they don't have a choice. That is a false assumption. People absolutely have a choice in what they think/feel about others, their parents, God, and themselves. When you change your associations to stronger, more positive, more accurate ones, it's like you can see the world through a whole new lens- you can change your life and your emotions. God already gave you the freewill to do so. This is why Paul said he found the secret to being content in all situations. External circumstances are irrelevant to his joy. He was in prison, starving, tortured, etc. and had positive emotions of joy. Phil 4:8. This is profoundly empowering to someone who realizes this truth.

    A parent should absolutely be unconditionally loving 24/7 to their child, but you can give 100% love and lovingly rebuke bad behavior, instruct, and model good behavior.
