Homosexual acts are sinful.That is written in the Bible.
A gay or lesbian,or anyone else for that matter,can repent and turn to Jesus.But that means stopping homosexual practice.

(1 Corinthians 6:9) What! Do YOU not know that unrighteous persons will not inherit God’s kingdom? Do not be misled. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men kept for unnatural purposes, nor men who lie with men,
(1 Timothy 1:10) fornicators, men who lie with males, kidnappers, liars, false swearers, and whatever other thing is in opposition to the healthful teaching
Females do not seem to rate a ]specific] mention.
however, they are advised to maintain a high moral standard.
Lesbianism would not comply with this.

I have a suspicion that there is no real place as hell. It is an invention to prevent people from straying into ways of life that Christian leaders do not agree with. In my opinion, it is irrelevant whether the Bible says anything or not. If the person is happy it should be all that matters.

Matthew 15:17-15:20
"Don't you see that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then out of the body? But the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart, and these make a man unclean. For out of the heart comes evil thoughts, murder, adultery, SEXUAL IMMORALITY, theft, false testimony, slander. These are what make a man 'unclean'.
Sexual Immorality consists of sex before marriage, sex with more then one person, sex with the same sex.... etc.
And yes, they can be saved from hell. But only by accepting Christ into their heart and asking him for forgiveness.

You cannot call yourself a Christian and be a supporter of Same Sex Marriages. It is against the word of God to support any homosexual agenda. The bible says it is sin period.
Leviticus 18:22
22 "`Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that is detestable."
Leviticus 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."
1 Corinthians 6:9-10
9 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
10 nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
Romans 1:25-27
25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator-- who is forever praised. Amen.
26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones.
27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.
Genesis 19:1-29 says God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah because of homosexuality. It stinks in the nostrils of God. Genesis 13:13 identify the men of Sodom as exceedingly wicked sinners. Genesis 18:20 says that the sin of Sodom is "very grievous." Genesis 18:23 adds emphasis to the portrayal of the inhabitants of Sodom as "wicked." Genesis 18:24-33 shows that God could not find even 10 righteous souls in Sodom. The perverts who inhabited Sodom, even wanted to rape God's Angels who had come to Sodom to rescue Lot.
It is clear. The same sex marriage agenda is against God, and is SIN, and that my friend is the bottom-line because the Word of Our Most Holy God says so.
Yes, they can be saved if they repent that sin and not repeat it and live a Godly lifestyle.

it's in the bible in a lot of places. for example, the men of sodom and gomorrah wanted to perform homosexual gang rape on the angels. while sodom and gomorrah were surely guilty of many other horrendous sins, homosexuality was the reason God poured fiery sulfur on the cities.
and yes, gays can be saved. God’s forgiveness is just as available to a homosexual as it is to an adulterer, idol worshipper, murderer, thief, etc.

A Christian is a Christian because he or she puts their trust in God through Jesus Christ. Nothing can get in the way of that once it's accomplished. God promises things in the Bible and a Christian will believe it. They trust God to fulfill His word, whatever God says, he will do.
What a Bisexual Christian such as myself has that's better than some who think something of their apparent 'straightness' is that I don't have to look very far to know that I am a sinner. I have hopefully zero spiritual pride to block me from knowing that I need God. I grow in that way.
'Those who are forgiven much love much'.

Galatians 6:7-8 " Do not be misled: God is not one to be mocked. For whatever a man is sowing, this he will also reap; 8 because he who is sowing with a view to his flesh will reap corruption from his flesh, but he who is sowing with a view to the spirit will reap everlasting life from the spirit.

Homosexuality is a sin. If a person repents, (turn away from) ask for forgiveness, and ask Jesus Christ to come into our hearts, we will be forgiven.
