The Bible says Jesus went through all temptations as man has! But, did Jesus go through temptations and feelings of homosexuality?

You are very vile.
This is why most people don't like homosexuals.

okay start at the beginning we need to discern what homosexuality is, ultimately it is a lust after the flesh [1 John 2:15-17] one of the 3 that all sin boils down to. sodomy is one of many by-products of being addicted to sexual things or physically touch and fulfillment, it may be different for everybody, some turn to bestiallity others adultery and fornication some pedaphilia etc, all are sins of the flesh and abominations in the eyes of God. But ultimately our flesh cannot be satisfied so we look for a way to "spice things up".
Now, Jesus' as a man like you and me was tempted in every way but found blameless, whether His temptation of the flesh was exactly the same as yours doesn't matter because the root temptation is the same. That same manhood or humanity combined with His sinlessness, qualified Him and Him alone to die for your and my sins and pay our debt to God for our crimes against Him.
So the important thing is simply to turn away from it knowing it is sin, and turn toward The God who can redeem and cleanse us of all unrighteousness.
God bless and hold you in the Loving arms of Christ.

I guess so, but he didn't YIELD to the temptation.
Hbr 4:15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as [we are, yet] without sin.
He chose to honor the Father, and homosexuality is not pleasing to Him.
Lev 18:22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it [is] abomination.
Lev 20:13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood [shall be] upon them.

If you want to take every word of the Bible literally, then yes, I would have to say that Jesus probably did at least wonder what it would be like. Can any of you out there deny that the thought has at least crossed your mind? I'm not saying that you have homosexual tendencies but I am fairly certain that at one time or another the thought of having a sexual experience with someone of the same sex has indeed crossed your mind even if you are totally straight.

Homosexuality is a result of sexual sin. He did not get tempted on every branch of sin but rather every category of sin. For instance, if someone told you he knew what an elephant looks like, you'd believe him. But he probably didn't see all of the elephant types and subspecies.

Only if he were gay would he go through those temptations. I suppose that gayness is somewhere inside all of us, with some it is deep and with others it is on the surface. I 'm sure Christ understood and underwent that temptation and was able to deny it.

Way to blaspheme! I'd start praying if I were you but to answer your stupid Q, NO he didn't go through homo feelings. It is wrong and he knew that becasue he was perfect! Who's to say he never saw a beautiful woman & thought of how pretty she was BUT he wasn't here for that. He didn't have lust or ever commit a sin. He was a perect human, the son of God & could not have relations with an imperfect woman. >:/

I think he conquered himself or evil through spiritualty. Because of this he can relate to what homesexauls are dealing with and understand their hardships. In his life he reached out to sinners and forgave them while he reprimended the so called perfect. I think he found love seperate from sexuality because of his strength and because he is the son of God, which we are not. We can only try and hope through whatever faith we have.

It says he did. How do we know? All we can tell you is what you've already quoted. You can ask him yourself in time, if you still want to. But know this, 100% of human males given truth serum confess they are afraid that they are homosexual. All of you fellows have some feeling you may hide from yourself. And yet you are fine people. So give it a rest already.
