Question:
Hello... I'm new here, I just wanted to find a place where I can talk to other followers of Jesus... It's a touchy problem, and I don't wanna reveal my identity because it's really embarrasing.. I feel really bad about it.
My problem is that.. I feel attracted to men. And yes, I'm also a man. When I see one, I want to.. you know.. the flesh defeats me... and it gets worse because when I'm alone I look at pictures of naked men... and well... you know oh God this is really embarrasing.
I've tried praying, but I feel more attracted every day I'll go to Hell if this continues! Please help me
Answer:
You'll only go to hell if you fail to trust in Jesus Christ for the salvation of your sins.
Answer:
I will pray for you. The fact that you want so desperately to not have these feelings will help you get through this.
Answer:
Do you have a church family where you feel comfortable? Is this something you can share with someone who can walk alongside you?
I am sorry that you are facing this. It sounds like you are feeling very conflicted. Which is a GOOD sign that you have not grown complacent about your thoughts and actions. Will pray for strength. *smile*
Answer:
But I do enjoy it, I just feel that God wouldn't approve.
Answer:
I think I did not explain myself. I'm embarrased of saying it, but I'm happy of doing it. I got a boyfriend yesterday and I like him. But after doing anything with him I think I might be disappointing Jesus.

I hope you realize that these two sentences are, in point of fact, a contradiction.
you can be a gay christian. you won't go to hell for it. if you are comfortable with it, then be happy...
This is very true, but God does expect Christians to deal with sin in their lives.

"It's not wrong" and "it's a sin" are still contradictory, but that's for theology.
I was merely pointing out the Christian opinion since this is a Christian forum.
If you want to take the stand that homosexuality is "ok," you're outside orthodoxy.
Answer:
I would really encourage you to find someone in your church whom you can talk to and can serve as an accountability partner. Talking to us is a great first step, but you really need someone who knows you and can help you work through this. The reason that you feel so terrible about this is because it is wrong. The way to feel better is to do what is right. I will continue to pray for you. Again, I want to emphasize talking to someone - meaning a heterosexual Christian.

Answer:
The topic is: This man realizes that what he is doing is sinful, and he is asking for our prayers.
