Also, read the account of the men of Sodom and Gomorrah. They were abandoned to homosexual behaviors and God destroyed them all and the cities around them.
I am wondering if you are inquiring to be able to share info with another person or if you are inquiring for yourself because you are struggling with such desires? I want to be able to pray for you or your friend with correct info.
Some people are born having a disability of any kind, special needs, like say Asperger's syndrome or anything else, all sort of diseases yet from birthtime etc. Something went wrong during pregnacy, something went wrong during birth, many things are inherited from parents etc etc. Is God responsible for all those? Was it His will that those people were born with those? No, of course not. Who is the ruler of this world? Satan is, he rules on people through sin. Since mankind revolved against God and chose to go their way, they have to face the consequences of their choises and their sinful lifes. Wordly people are not under God's protection and concern, only His children are.
I understand. This is what my three sisters say for themselves.
Funny, though, none of them are following the Lord because they know that doing so is incompatible with their lifestyle and they do not want to give up their partners or lifestyle.
We were raised in a Christian home. Some of us remain believers but a number do not. (I have 9 siblings). So, I really don't know what to say to them, either, as they seem to be beyond convincing. I just pray for the Lord to change their hearts and orientation.
Believing that someone is born homosexual puts the blame and responsibility upon God for their orientation. This is a good way to relieve themselves of the conviction and guilt they have felt and have attempted to reckon with themselves in the process of coming to terms with this lifestyle themselves. After such a difficult struggle, I can see that it is very hard for them to hear nor consider that what they are living is sinful and not from God. So, we can have compassion for them because they often have very deep struggles due to this. But we still need to stay firm in knowing that this type of lifestyle is against God's ways and not give in to the reasoning of the current society that now approves of this lifestyle, thinks it is honorable, and that they are born that way. This is clearly calling evil good and good evil (anyone who does not approve of homosexuality).
the Word of God says in many places that homosexual relations and affections are sinful, abhorrent to God, and that those who practice homosexuality will not enter the Kingdom of heaven.

That being the case, she also thinks that God then is responsible for their condition.
