The fact that we are imperfect humans is exactly why He guides us.

This is another thing that many gay Christians would agree with you on.

"Carnal" Christians certainly don't "shut" Jesus out.

Some Christians view sexual pleasure as a gift from God that’s meant to be enjoyed.

There are several places in this thread where, in one way or another, intolerance is getting a little too prevalent and judgements on other WP members are being made in one form or another, directly or implied.

But going by the honest opinions of many posters here "Gay Christian" is not an oxymoron and essentially, insisting that it is because [reasons] is uncomfortably close to a personal attack, denying Christ as accessible reality to others because they are Gay.

Therefore I'm going to put this thread to bed to avoid things kicking off any further and before it drifts into warnings territory.

Thread locked.
