Dealing with Same-Sex Attraction and Growing in the Knowledge of God's Attributes

from Same-Sex Attracted and a Christian. Now What? · host Dennis Belkofer

In this episode, I share that growing in the knowledge of God's attributes (all of them and not only that He is love), safeguarded me from turning what I learned about how to deal with same-sex attraction biblically into a formula that centered on how it benefited me more than pleasing God. Please check out the episodes that chronicle how I learned to deal with same-sex attraction biblically. Growing in the knowledge of God's attributes transformed me from being a consumer, horizontal Christian focused on what God will do for me, to a vertical Christian, hungry to know all of who God is. It produced in me a love for what God loves and a hatred for what he hates: same-sex attraction and all desires of the flesh. I've found that growing in the knowledge of God's attributes is a deterrent to sinning against Him. It smashes any formulated and prescriptive way of living the Christian life. Formulas are impersonal. Growing in the knowledge of God's attributes is personal, between the believer and God. It fosters a desire to obey Him for who He is, not only for what He will do for us. Jesus said it all in John 14:15: "If you love me, you will keep my commandments."Email: [email protected]
