This question is one that has been asked many times, but no one has ever had the right answer. The answer is yes, gay people can be Christians. Ones sexual preference does not make one any less of a person or a Christian. Being gay does not mean the person does not believe in God. Many people will ask, "How can you say that and believe that?"
The answer is simple. God does not judge his children. He does not discriminate. The bible says that gluttony is a sin. This would mean that every overweight person in the world could not be a Christian. If you look around you as you read this, pick out three people and think about each one.
The first person I see is an overweight construction worker. If we rely on the bible to guide us, he is a sinner. He is overweight. I could never like him.
The next person I see is a single mom walking her baby. She is not married and had a child out of wedlock. She is a sinner. I don’t like her.
The next sight I see is a man walking into the neighbor's house. Since this happens every day after her husband leaves and he only stays for an hour or so, he could be having an affair. They are both sinners. I don't like them.
Then I have myself, I have just judged three people because of what the bible says. I have committed a sin because I am discriminating against these people because of the way they live their lives.
Is it possible for gays to be Christians? Yes. We are all Christians if we believe in God. That is all there is to say. Your sexual preference or lack of good judgment (the horny neighbor, overweight person and single mom) does not make you not a Christian. Everyone is a Christian if he or she believes.
