“Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God” (1 Corinthians 6:9-10).

Notice the first four words of the verse: “Do not be deceived.” Think about why God would put those words there. It’s because this isn’t verses about the wonderful truth that God cares about sparrows and people, or that He promises to supply all of our needs. This is about who will make it to Heaven and those who will end up in Hell. Nothing is more important, so make sure that you aren’t deceived about this issue—because there are many out there who are trying to deceive you.

Usually when a homosexual says that he was “born this way,” he’s saying that he can’t help being gay. But that’s like a fornicator saying that he was born that way because he keeps wanting to have sex with women. Or like an adulterer saying that he grew into his teenage years looking at married women and longing to have sex with them. In one sense the homosexual is right. He was born with a sinful nature that loves to sin.

The Bible speaks of some men “having eyes full of adultery.” We are like moths to a flame when it comes to sexual sin—especially lust, which God considers him to be committing adultery (see Matthew 5:27-28). Even though we love the darkness and we “drink iniquity like water” God holds us morally responsible and warns that fornicators, adulterers and homosexuals will not enter Heaven. Tragically they will go to Hell. So we were all born with a propensity to follow after sin, and that’s why we all need to be born again (see John 3:1-7).
