在當今文化中,同性戀迷思之一是「只要你曾是同性戀,你永遠是同性戀」也就是同性戀行為是不可能改變的。這種說法不但與聖經教導相背馳,而且與事實真相不合。在哥林多前書六章11節,保羅清楚指出同性戀是不義且有些哥林多人過去陷於那些不義的生活,然而奉耶穌基督的名,借著聖靈,已經洗凈成聖稱義。使徒時代是如此,現在亦是如此。當今有不少人靠基督寶血和聖靈大能,完全走出同性戀生活模式,例如:「愛中行動」(Love In Action)創辦人法蘭克?渥爾湛,他已離棄同性戀行為有廿年之久,他絕非特例。有不少離棄同性戀行為重生得救的基督徒在世界各地見證並幫助有心改變同性戀行為的人。
Vonnie Pitts Vonnie Pitts was a heterosexual pastor at a church in New South Wales. She and two other pastors set up an ex-gay ministry based on the Living Waters program. After four months of training, they took three lesbians and two gay men through the intense six month program. When that didn』t work, they looked at other ex-gay resources for help. But over time, she learned that 「anyone who claimed to be 『cured』 had just gone into denial about his or her sexuality.」
She concludes: If I were to see any of the people that I took through the 『Living Waters』 program again, I would say sorry. My intentions were to help you through your struggle but I acted in ignorance.
