You made this statement here-
Which strongly implies that you are claiming it is not wrong to find people of the same gender attractive.
And that depends on the context, seeing that the context of this thread is sexuality, then yes, I believe that sexual attraction leads to desire. Do you not believe its possible to deny those thoughts when they come into your head? Yes, I do get those kinda thoughts in my head, but instead of embracing them and making claims that "its a sin to be attracted to anyone therefore Im no more wrong than heterosexuals", I tell myself "ew no thats wrong and completely unnecessary".
The thought will come to your head, but you are in complete control over what you do with it.
If you are a follower of Christ who deals with these urges but denies them for Him, then I am happy. But you should think about how you speak to others. Claiming to be bi and proud does not help others come to Christ. Why not instead speak to people on a personal level, "yes I know your struggle, but I have been changed by the Lord"? I strongly believe that speaks volumes over "Im Christian and bi and proud".

No Noah wasn't a drunk Christian, David was not an adulterous Christian and Paul wasn't a murdering Christian.
Noah was found drunk,he wasn't a drunk. One time the Bible says that Noah was drunk.
David committed adultery once and said "my sin is ever before me". He repented,bitterly.
Paul was a Jew when he murdered Christians. It was when he came to Christ and repented after realizing what he had done. He was not a murdering Christian.
So the point is the same as I have said before,we fail as Christians but we do not continue to live a sinful lifestyle and none of these men did either. Committing a sin and failing is not the same as living in sin. If you are living in sin there was no need for Christ to die. We are to "come out of the world".
You added "proud". Again, Why do you add words to what I said?
Why are people on this thread trying to tell me how to communicate--how to represent myself?
It is possible for one to have the thought: "Wow, that guy/gal is really attractive!" And then, move on. Just because one might find men and women both equally attractive, does not mean that one dwells on these thoughts.
I feel like, since I made the statement "I am a bisexual Christian." some folks assumed waay too much from this small statement. This is what I mean by 'seeking understanding' before being quick to judge/speak. But, rather than accept this Biblical advise--you advise me to change the way I present myself.
15 Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners—of whom I am the worst.16 But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display his immense patience as an example for those who would believe in him and receive eternal life. 1 Timothy 1:15-16

Quote "You told me I'm not a Christian.
I told you you're slow to listen and quick to speak."
No,I told you the Bible says you are not a Christian according to Jesus teachings which you claim to follow. Either you follow His Word or you don't. It is you who is slow to listen and quick to speak.Im saying what the Bible says.
Because you have made yourself look like someone who both engages in homosexual acts and calls themself a Christian. And even without the word "proud", it still implies the same message. You came and said "I am Christian and bi", you did not say any more than that, leaving us with just that sentence to work off of. Where is the testimony of change? In what way does that imply He has changed your life? It doesnt, all it says is that you claim to be a follower of Christ and are bisexual, tell anyone that you are bisexual and they are going to automatically assume you are saying you engage in such acts.
And in a sexual way? Jesus tells us that even the thought counts as committing the sin. I agree that I can think a male looks good, but I dont look at him sexually, no. And that is the topic of the thread.

who made the post....
Here's what you ACTUALLY said (screenshot):
It is quite obvious. I'm saying nothing further on this topic of whether or not Kaylagrl said I am not a Christian.
If you cannot change your tone with me, I have no desire to converse with you.
