[QUOTE="Little Joe, post: 1678955, member: 39122"] This is something I've pondered on before. If my son came home and told me he was homosexual or transgender or any of the other things like that, first of all I would be heart broke. I would still love him just the same but I would never just accept it as that's who he was. If he was young I'd get him some Christian counseling. I'd pray for him without ceasing, I'd call all my Christian family and friends and ask that they do the same. I'd be at the altar every Sunday praying that the Lord change his heart. I'd do the same for any other sinful lifestyle as well. I would also try to point him in the right direction through scripture. While I know we all sin daily, I believe there's a difference in choosing to live a lifestyle that is opposed to God compared to randomly sinning while trying not to sin. Both are sin, but how we respond to the sin is the difference. Choosing a lifestyle that you know is sinful is you just accepting the sin in your life and hoping grace covers it, whereas if you're asking for grace for sins that you're struggling to quit are 2 different things. And I'm not just talking homosexuality or transgender, I believe 2 people shacking up are choosing a lifestyle ( these are just a few of sinful lifestyles not trying to say they are the worst). Accepting these things are the equivalent of me finding out he is addicted to meth and me just saying "well that's just who he is". I agree there are probably some kids who struggle with the idea that they're the wrong gender from an early age but there are many that fall into that thinking it's cool. I'm at a school daily and I've seen it over the years. We wouldn't just accept other destructive behaviours in our children no matter how early in life they started, so why should we just accept this. I'm not at all suggesting anyone mistreat them, I have a young man that rides my bus that identifies as a girl, I probably treat him even kinder than I do the others hoping he can see the light in me and want the same for his life.
