Sex and Sexuality, a Spiritual Discussion

Many have seen and/or heard the statement made by Mr. Allen Chambers of Exodus international regarding the "immutable" (unchangeable) sexual desire/orientation of those who are in same-gender relationships. He said ""I do not believe that cure is a word that is applicable to really any struggle, homosexuality included," said Chambers, who is married to a woman and has children, but speaks openly about his own sexual attraction to men. "For someone to put out a shingle and say, 'I can cure homosexuality' — that to me is as bizarre as someone saying they can cure any other common temptation or struggle that anyone faces on Planet Earth."

He also stated... "the ministry's emphasis should be simply helping Christians who want to reconcile their own particular religious beliefs with sexual feelings they consider an affront to scripture. For some that might mean celibacy; for others, like Chambers, it meant finding an understanding opposite-sex partner."

Chambers believes... that "99.9 percent" of people he's encountered in two decades with Exodus were not able to completely rid themselves of same-sex attraction. He believes the organization must be honest about that when people come looking for help.

Is this truth, is homosexuality the "only" sinful desire that the Holy Spirit is powerless to resolve? Are those with same-gender attractions sexually broken or are they created by God to be "sodomites"?
