Sadly but necessary, my discomfort with same sex relationships. gender identity.& transgender issues, is made crystal clear in Romans 1.
I'm not supposed to be comfortable with out of order relationships. I have tried to make this work in my mind but the Lord's truth overrides any attempt to do so.
And I have close family members who have been encouraged to believe love is love is love.
Society has put on the mantle of deception to perpetuate this wrong thinking.
I agree with you and I have family members who are in this lifestyle and it is always uncomfortable for me to be around them and their "spouses" at family gatherings. I keep interactions to a minimum outside of these gatherings. I do not wish to give them the impression that I think that their lifestyle is o.k. with me. I will always act lovingly and kind around them, but, since we all were brought up as believers and taught correctly about sexuality, they have pursued the desires of their hearts and flesh, and these do not have the approval of God in any way.
It is somewhat difficult to explain this viewpoint in the public arena these days as the going sentiment is to not say anything that would be judgmental to anyone or make someone "uncomfortable". (not thinking that we may be "uncomfortable" with the lifestyle of some that intersect with our lives.)
