When another brother and I went to visit him, he shared with us that upon meeting the Lord, he said that the Lord told him he’s not gay. He emphasized this again as I recall.
He had visited with his family to tell them he believed in Jesus , etc, but they rejected him, and told him to go away.
He happened to be in the city I lived in at that time , and needed financial assistance to get back east, so we helped him in that way, giving it all to the Lord.
This was just my little contribution to this thread.

Thanks for sharing, it was very good for you to help him. What I meant to say was that he was probably not 100 percent gay to begin with, more like he is bisexual so he could have had different feelings with opposite sex as well. Only time will tell. This is a very interesting story of a family who rejected their son due to him not being gay. Was the family not religious?

He told us when he told them about accepting Jesus, they were unhappy with him and told him to leave. It seemed to me they were unbelievers who hated Jesus or Christianity.

What ethnicity is he? I've know Native Americans that hate Christianity with a passion, for what Christians did to them. I can't blame them.

He appeared Caucasian.
