Do you wish to simply find a community of belonging? Are you seeking acceptance or truth?
Christianity lists homosexuality as a sin but then all sin is forgiven by simply asking for forgiveness. That partly answers your question but still
there's the continued action to take into account. Openly taking part in what is labeled as sin isn't going to win any acceptance from the local
congregation. Don't think that your choice of lifestyle is a special case. If you were to walk in with a bottle of vodka and start drinking like an
alcoholic, or start making out with your neighbor's wife, or commit murder in church you'd get the same reaction. We could have these "once saved
always saved" debates that honestly I don't have the answer too. I like to believe that no sin is worse than any other and that Jesus died for all
past and future sins but the average person won't have that discussion with you and it's sure not going to be discussed in a sermon in most
churches.
I'll might disagree with you on the topic but you can sit with me in church any day you wish. What did I read recently? Something along the lines of
"We often judge spirituality on what we are least tempted by." Homosexuality isn't my poison but mine might be much worse.
