Was the purpose of the teaching to say, we will be considered sinners for every thought we entertain, or was it to say, "be careful, guard your thoughts, for men do not sin, unless they give it some forethought?"
Have our teachings expounded upon the original intent so as to blur it beyond recognition?

Example.
Is it sin to see a person of your selection, think, wow, she's hot, and i bet ... and then go about your day, as opposed to, "wow, she's hot, it's time to put my game face on, and let's make a move. I'm going to do this and that, and thereafter we'll be swimming horizontal refreshment?"

Generally speaking, I believe we will be judged not just on what we have done, but on who we have become. I again reference Bednar's talk on clean hands and a pure heart. Quote:
To me that sounds like more than simply making sure you don't sin. It sounds like attempting to excise the desire to sin.

I am not sure how God will judge homosexual behavior. I am not sure how God will judge a failed lifetime of heterosexual celibacy either.
Yes it is a sin in the same sense that heterosexual sex out of marriage is a sin, but I don't think any of us know for certainty how God will judge these people. I can envision the Savior's atonement more than covering any demands for justice these people may face. |
