One of the "delivered" gay men I know was married for many years. He was a pentecostal (independent) pastor. Finally gave up on the charade and divorced his wife. The other ex-gay man I know is also now ex-ex-gay and divorced. To be fair, I may know some ex-gays without knowing that they are.

Unfortunately, what you have described happens way too often. I have heard of homosexuals who get saved, pray for years and years for deliverance from their feelings, get married and make families, and finally give up and go back to the gay lifestyle because they never really got any "deliverance".

Yes, and leaving a devastated family behind. I have to wonder, what's more dangerous: preaching the evils of homosexuality and convincing gays that they must change or burn forever, or just letting it go? Leave gays alone, and let the Holy Spirit do all the convicting and changing that He thinks is necessary. (IMO, that will be zero, but hey, I'm not the HS. He can do whatever He wants.) Isn't that His job?

Probably because it is the way you articulate your ingenious arguments, I mean how can anyone argue with all those facts that you give?
Yeah. As if you have presented any. LOL! At least I have spoken with homosexuals and even have two that I am friends with. How many have you spoken with to back up your claim that homosexuals choose to be attracted to people of the same sex?

I am not against preaching against homosexuality, any more than I am against preaching against any other sin. I am, however, against the way homosexuality is preached against. You don't win people over by demonizing them.
There IS deliverance AND salvation for lesbians and homosexuals.
It is not according to OUR faith. It isn't our demon to deal with.
It is according to THEIR faith. If a homosexual or lesbian has the FAITH and know their Word and their rights and does NOT let religion or religious folks hinder their deliverance....
Then they SHALL be saved and SHALL be delivered....and maintain their deliverance...in Jesus' name!
Amen....
