Thank you for reading my question:
"We shall be changed in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye."
The argument here is that most /many of the gay community claim to have been made gay from birth and its in thir propensity. Will we really be changed or will HOMOSEXUALS be in heaven and still be homosexual? Are gays and lesbians having a form of Godliness and denying the power thereof ( for example to change them!)..."I am lead to believe that when you repent and are born again, you should become a new creature...old things pass away " etc.. Serious issue. 2 points available if criteria met.
No offence intended, i am a sinner myself saved by the love and grace of God. I wish to help as many unsaved, lost or confused souls as possible.
I love Jesus , and we all need Him.
In love.
BIBLICAL EVIDENCE PLEASE.. In love.

No, sorry if this hurts but the bible is clear:
1 Cor. 6:9-10 Says: Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor HOMOSEXUAL OFFENDERS 10nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
But there is good news, notice Paul here does not call the gay homosexuals, he calles them offenders, this should make it clear that homosexuality is what they DO not WHAT they are. there are a lot of studies that are out there that say that some are just Born Gay. Well dugh!! it's called sin. every person on the planet has a stronghold, a sin that overtakes them, for some it is homosexual behavior, for others it is immoral sex, still others drugs, Galations 5:21b goes on to say that: "I warn you as I did before that those who LIVE like this will not inherit the kingdom of God."
in other words you have a choice to turn away from your sin, and that is exactly what Homosexual behavior is, SIN.

A person with same-sex attraction can be saved like anyone else, if s/he fulfills the same conditions. Just as is the case for me as a divorced person, and as God intended for all persons who don't have an opposite-sex spouse at the moment (single, widowed), we need to refrain from sexual activity. Some may say that's unfair, but it's not really -- though it IS tough. But just as we expect people with pedophilic desires ought to control them and not act on them, the same goes for anyone, gay or straight, who's not married according to God's plan.
I don't believe gays can become straight on earth, and Jesus said there will be no marriage in heaven, so I don't think our sexuality will have the same meaning for us then. Marriage on earth is a symbol of the unity of Christ and the Church. In heaven, the reality that symbolized will have come true and that symbol won't be necessary any more.

The question might better be: "Will gays not be in heaven?"
By starting with that question, rather than "why," you will be able to examine your original premise to determine whether it is sound. The first thing you'll want to do is define what you mean by "gays" and "heaven." You will have to examine the evidence that supports the idea that heaven exists.
While you stipulate "Biblical evidence," I must point out that there is little in the Bible that is verifiable. In order to examine a statement for its truth or falsity, we must first divorce it from metaphysics.
May I suggest Ayers' "Language, Truth and Logic," and Whyte's "Crimes Against Logic" as profitable reading?

Why can't you people see that the bible was written by men, who clearly had their own agenda. Doesn't the glaring contradiction jump out at you? Do you really believe that a God who loves and created our souls would be at all vengeful? It just amazes me that some people can just take any ones "interpretation" of a book that was written by men as the only truth. Can't you think for yourself? Sin and hell are man made words, not God made. Check it out yourself. The information is out there.

I wish I could give biblical evidence, but I can tell you my beliefs based on what I have learned in church. We are all sinners, gay or straight. The way to get to heaven is to believe in Jesus and therefore be saved. God forgives us our sins, no matter what they are(if you view homosexuality as a sin). There are many "straight" people who think they're saved, but they're not. I don't believe that God discriminates against anyone.

Seems to me that the Bible says that God makes ALL men and ALL women. That includes gays. Why would he not allow them back into heaven? A perfect God cannot create an imperfect man or woman. We here on earth bastardize that.

NO gays in heaven.Pls read the Romans 1(especially vs 25-27)They have abandoned the natural use of themselves.God never created anyone to have passion for the same sex.No one was ever born that way.The passion for the same sex was developed by their own doing.God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah because of this sin(origin of the word Sodomy).
Hope this is helpful

homosexuality is not an inborn characteristic....it is a lifestyle that has been chosen by the person....
i do not believe that homosexuals won't make it into Heaven SIMPLY because they're homosexuals.....I do however believe that if you have accepted Jesus into your heart and have read the Bible and asked God to open your mind to it's correct interpretation, then you won't continue that lifestyle.....there can be gay Christians.....they're still sinning by being gay, but we all sin......it's when you continue it habitually that you are getting yourself into some trouble....so no, i don't think that there will be gays in Heaven....but not because they're gays.....because they have apparently not truly become saved......I just don't see how you can be gay and become a Christian and NOT change that lifestyle

Gay dudes are the most kind and gentle people I have known. If they aren't going to heaven, then God is going to collapse under the weight of his own hypocrisy and we'll all go to Hell, so pray to God that he lets all of his children in heaven, or do the world a favor and send yourself to meet your maker right now. The most selfless thing you could possibly do is to take yourself off this planet. Really, think about it. Make one true sacrifice, for us, for God.

It is not the person. It's the act of the sin itself. All have the choice of sin or redemption.
Love the person...hate the sin.
