I've always likened hardcore Christianity to a game, wherein if you play well, you get health, happiness, prosperity, salvation and baptism in the Holy Spirit, but if you play badly, you chronically suffer from "ailments" such as addiction or abuse or homosexuality (using your example). You can ask for deliverance, but if it doesn't "take," there are only two possible explanations: 1. That's not how life actually works. 2. You are a failure.
