Will i go to hell if im gay

Because salvation is by faith alone in Christ alone and we are not saved by our works good or bad, yes, a homosexual person can go to heaven. Having said this, however, there is always the question of whether such a person has faced their sin and truly put their trust in Christ.

When we talk about homosexuality

Hello, no, you will not go to hell if you are gay. The Bible clearly says that anyone who loves Jesus and believes that he died for everyones sins can go to heaven. When we ask if gay people go to heaven or hell, we may be using the label gay rather than considering the individual who may be struggling with temptation or confused about his or her sexual identity.

For the purposes of this article, we will define gay as “practicing a homosexual lifestyle.”.

One of the most challenging questions facing Christians today revolves around the subject of homosexuality: Is being gay a sin? Will being gay send me to hell? Can you be gay and still be a Christian? These are deep, personal questions that require thoughtful, biblical, and compassionate responses. I believe the answer is that some but not all practicing homosexuals will go to heaven, and others will go to hell.

Homosexuality is a sin - a heinous sin! But so is adultery - another sexual sin. Yes, you, the young male wearing the loud shirt, scarf, and skinny jeans. Yes, you, the student tutor with a 3. As long as I wish to profess my love for another man I will not be accepted for who I am by many denominations of Christianity. People now seem to have a horrible double standard about the reclaiming of salvation for those of us that decided to tell everyone how we really feel.

It just blows my mind that, because I want to fall in love with a man, I am doomed to a cursed afterlife full of wounds that never heal and infinite darkness. There have been times in my life where I could see the way out clearly and wanted to take it. To end it all and prove them wrong. I am meant for greater things and suicide will never be the best option. Ultimately, not all gays go to hell: this I believe.

Because of this belief, it is not in my best interest to send myself to be with Him before my time has come. My God and I have talked about the fact that I like boys, and we have decided that Hell is not my fate.
