The New Birth isn't a magic bullet that immediately fixes everything in us that is broken.

Of course the flesh must be battled on a daily basis.

Carnality grows back like our fingernails.

But homosexuality is not your garden variety sin.

It is a deep perversion that flies in the face of nature and the order of creation itself.

Romans 1 makes that very plain.

I will say this--not every person struggling with homosexuality arrived there by the same path.

Children who are abused and molested and grow up confused as a result are a totally different case than those who go the route described in Romans 1.
