Sexuality and Identity | Never Too Far Gone

Sexuality and Identity | Never Too Far Gone

Where it should have paved a path home for the sinner to receive forgiveness by the works of Jesus Christ, instead, proclaimed that a person’s worth would be found in their virginity. If a person engaged in sex outside of marriage, the tone of the message was that they had failed or let God down. In truth, the Gospel never labels a person as too far gone or beyond the reach of God. Those struggling through sexuality and identity can find solace and acceptance, of who they are not what they do, in the arms of God and always return to Him. Then, having been forgiven and redeemed, we all should actively flee from sexual temptation so that God would be glorified in our sexuality.

Life goes beyond the simply defining ourselves by a gender structure, sexual behavior, and any other related signifier. As Christians, we cannot begin to sort through our identity apart from being in Christ more than we can our gender and our sexual behavior. Nor can we rightfully identity according to how we see fit. Our identity can only rightfully be crafted by the hands of the master craftsman who designs and establishes all of creation.
