No I don't struggle with it. I have a thought on the subject however. I was reading an article on Relevant's site and I'm thinking about experiences that I've had and heard about in regards to Christians witnessing to gays.
I think we're going about it all wrong. I think we tend to focus in on that sin and approach these people with the intention of changing them, in this area, so that they can come to know Christ as their savior. But why don't we focus in on any other sin that people carry in their lives before they are, "ready to come to Christ".
No, what needs to happen is we need to show the love of Christ to them. In order for any homosexual to come to Christ they have to fall in love with Him right? How can you expect to tell them that they need to change and leave this "sinful lifestyle" behind them when they don't love God. What's the motivation. All your inviting them into from their perspective is to live the life of a monk.
Shoot! I wouldn't give any Christian the time of day if I was gay and they approached me with that mentality. I mean would you?
