What do I do now? I just had gay oral sex with another man? I feel so guilty.

So, you're alone because you don't have family and friends, and you're having random hookups with men to not feel alone?

Did it work? If what you did was good, why are you running over to a Christian board? Why are you not celebrating it? Are you here just because of guilt and fear?

Well, people here can't forgive sexual sins. No man or woman here is capable of providing above and beyond what God can do. I am not God and I cannot forgive sin. I'm just a human being. Just a random person on the internet.

Maybe you'll find a hundred atheists here who will congratulate you, though.

Do you know God? Has he revealed Himself to you and answered your prayers? Or, have you just been told about Him? Are you just afraid of Him and the larger consequences of your decisions? Like, in the end, not getting married to a woman and sleeping with men instead?

Maybe you're afraid of this new reality that your choosing for yourself and looking for permission?

You can get that from unbelievers. If that's what you want and need.

The apostle Paul said sexual sins are sins against the body. Sex outside of marriage is a form of self destruction. Casual sex may temporarily console or even entertain you for a while, until you find those feelings of emptiness and loneliness drive you into things you really regret (as you get older and more bold in your decisions).

You could also catch a disease or become spiritually sick. And, that would be the price you have to pay. And, no one here, your sexual partners, or the athiests here, can heal that or pay the price for you.

Your flesh and other people's flesh (and words) cannot save you from your sin. Your body is a temple made for a living God. He wants you to keep it holy. To surrender yourself and live for Him. Only Jesus can save you and forgive sin, if you believe that.

It's up to you to believe and follow Him (or not). It's your life and choice.
