I just wanted to clarify that there were many people that have left the church because they didn't feel that they could turn to their pastor (or other saints). I'm not bashing pastors in general, because I have a great pastor; however, I have seen pastors rail in the pulpit that homosexuals were bound for hell with no hope.
How could someone struggling with homosexuality who was exposed to that type of preaching feel comfortable going to those pastors for counseling? God will lead people who are desiring change to the right person to minister to them. God knows what He is doing and I for one won't stand in His way with my personal beliefs.
Thank you though for mentioning something that needed to be addressed this evening.
