“Scripture isn’t vague. Jesus was tempted in every way except sin (Hebrews 4:15). He bore the consequences of the fall—hunger, pain, grief—but not its corruption. He didn’t inherit our disordered affections. He didn’t entertain inward rebellion. And He certainly didn’t carry around sexual inclinations that violate God’s design.”
(The Dissenter) In a recent webinar podcast geared toward making the argument that same sex attraction is not sinful, Preston Sprinkle and Gregory Coles suggest that Jesus Himself may have experienced sexual attraction. Coles states, “It does seem like it sort of cheapens the passage to be like, Jesus totally knows what you’re going through, but not that part… Jesus didn’t deal with that part.”
Sprinkle agrees, as they speculated that, since God created humans as sexual beings, “the thing we call opposite-sex attraction is kind of just part of being human.” Their claim is simply that if Jesus was fully human, and sexuality is part of humanity, then Jesus probably experienced sexual attraction.
