But to say that people who have same-sex attractions are the only group of people who need to go to a therapist to completely resolve those attractions isn’t something I find biblically accurate.
But sin resides, the power of sin resides in our flesh. It will always try us and it was always tempt us and therefore we always need to be submitting our mind, will and emotions to the lordship of Jesus Christ.
I find it a golden idol, honestly, where we have been hypocritical to ask people to resolve this issue in a way that we haven’t encouraged other people with other struggles to resolve.
For other people who are involved in unrepentant sin whether it’s the sin of homosexual sexual expression or gluttony or pride or heterosexual sexual expression outside of a monogamous heterosexual marriage.
But it doesn’t say anywhere in that passage that the people didn’t still struggle with temptation or that they never fell prey to that sin again whether it was the issue of homosexuality or any of the other things that are listed there.
