Identity vs. behavior: biblical view calls homosexuality a behavioral issue, not core identity

Steven Anderson vs The Biblical Gospel 00:27:35 – 00:29:10

Explaining the communication breakdown between Christians and LGBTQ+ individuals

Biblical view: homosexuality concerns behavior and actions, not one's core identity — though the behavior is not entirely unconnected from identity. Popular secular view: sexual orientation is core identity. This causes a communication breakdown: Christians say "your action is sin" but the hearer hears "I reject your core being." Mike argues this is a genuine miscommunication between worldviews, not hate.
