Gay Marriage?
“And the Lord God said, it is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help mate for him.
And the Lord caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; and the rib, which the Lord God had taken from the man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. And Adam said this is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.
“Therefore shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh” (Genesis 2: 18, 21-23)
It was God who designed the institution of marriage not the courts, judges, the Constitution, or society; therefore, they cannot change or the laws of God. There is no other origin of marriage in written world history other than the Bible. It is clear that the Bible teaches marriage as one man and one woman. Man cannot change this law. God made this law at the same time that he made the law that the woman will bear children. Man cannot change this law either. No marriage between men or between women will ever be recognized as legitimate by God. In other words God considers it sin.
“For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
“And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman burned in their lust one toward another, men with men working that which is unseemly and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was met…” (Romans 1:26-27)
Once a person’s heart is “hardened” against God he will never change his sinful practices. In the above verse it says that God gave them up to a reprobate mind. In other words God knew that they had sinned so hard and for such a long time that they had lost the ability to change their attitude about God. In addition, God will allow these persons to die the sin unto death. He will literally hand you over to Satan and let him have his way with you until you die. Do not let yourself get to this point.
It should be evident that God does not condone homosexuality as a lifestyle much less allow it as marriage. Homosexual “marriage” is nothing but evil direct from Satan. We must remember what Satan’s goal is in this world. Satan wants to destroy the family unit and by so doing cause doubt concerning the things of God and confusion in the minds of people in order to obscure the gospel. Homosexuals now can be ordained ministers, they can be married legally in some places, they raise children and they want government benefits normally reserved for real marriages.
Throughout history a number of countries have allowed homosexuality to become accepted and even mainstream. In every case these countries have been destroyed and never returned.
By accepting homosexual marriage we are setting ourselves up for a fall. Without the family our country cannot stand. Homosexual marriages are not a family. They are just unrelated people living together in defiance of God. God intends for his creation to survive. He destroyed the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah because of homosexuality as well as countries, cities and individuals since that time.
Let’s suppose that 60 to 75% of the population became homosexual over time. What would the results be? No big deal? Think about this. A large percentage of the population would die out. Homosexuals cannot reproduce by themselves plus there would not be enough children available for adoption. The bigger percentage of the population that became homosexual the less children would be born. So, the population would get considerably smaller with every passing generation. In addition, many homosexual couples do not want children so when they die there is no offspring. Homosexuals cannot procreate therefore they must depend upon someone from a real marriage between a man and a woman or a single woman putting up children up for adoption in order to have children. The only other option would be for a lesbian to be unfaithful to her partner and have sexual relations with a man (which would be sin) or to have artificial insemination from an unknown donor. In the case of a male relationship the only option would be adoption or a surrogate birth. In any of these scenarios the child would not be a blood relative of both partners and in some cases not a blood relative of either partner. What about grand children, cousins, in-laws etc? Can you imagine the confusion in a child being blood related to one of his parents and not to the other? As you can see not only is the homosexual marriage a sin (rebellion against God) but for homosexuals to have their “own” children could foster even more sin.
Children need a mother and a father to have a balance in their lives. As they grow up they receive training from a man’s point of view and a woman’s point of view who agree on the correct way to raise a child and therefore they gain an understanding of both sexes to better prepare them for life. Homosexual men especially are notorious for hating the opposite sex. If you don’t believe that simply go to a yahoo chat room and click on gay chat (if you can stand it for a few minutes) and just listen to the real homosexual men talk about women. The homosexuals portrayed on TV and in the media are not representative of real world homosexuals.
You may actually believe that you can be in a homosexual relationship and be blessed by God but you are only deceiving yourself. Homosexuality is a very bad sin because it absorbs you into the whole lifestyle. Everything that goes with it is evil. Once a person decides to turn against God then there is no end to the evil that he will do.
Homosexuals cannot procreate. God intends for his creation to survive. This is why He destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah. Homosexuality had become mainstream and therefore its people had lost their morality, their love for God, their ability to procreate and everything else that God intended the human race to be and the cities became useless to Gods purpose and destroyed the family. God is not quick to judge. He will give people time to change their sinful ways but sooner or later he will deal with people on a personal level and a national level if a country allows homosexuality to become prevalent in society and the ones who allow and support it will be judged along with the homosexuals. A few homosexuals in any society make little difference but when it becomes mainstream or even dominates it will certainly cause a nation to fall and has. The Apostle Paul has this to say about homosexuals and those who support homosexuality:
“And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge. God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity, whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud (arrogance), boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,Without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: Who knowing the judgment of God that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only who do the same, but (those who) have pleasure in them that do them.” Romans 1:28-32.
Homosexuals claim that the reason they need to be married is that they have a “loving” relationship and want to be with their partner for life. So what. Since the Bible originates marriage and defines it as a man and woman relationship they are in violation of Gods law from the start therefore, why can’t they just love each other. Being married to each other doesn’t keep them from living in sin as it would in a man and woman relationship. It is not a moral issue with them. There is no morality in a homosexual relationship. There must be another reason. A homosexual relationship is sin anyway you look at it so getting a marriage license does not make it valid in Gods eyes. Love is not the only reason that God instituted marriage between a man and a woman. Not only did he design the human bodies for having children in a man and woman relationship but He also designed the emotional pattern and the attractive features of the opposite sex. In addition the man was designed to protect and to provide for the woman. The father and mother concept was to give children a balanced outlook on life and respect for both sexes.
It’s all about money.
“For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, Godliness, faith, love, patience and meekness.” (I Timothy 6: 10-11)
Homosexuals want to get the same benefits from the government as real married people such as government retirement benefits, tax breaks etc. Another interesting point is they want acceptance in society from the vast majority of people who do not accept them now. How do they plan to do this? By getting a marriage license? No, by force. They want the liberal, God hating, pointy headed, pseudo intellectual, activist, law making judges to force the acceptance of homosexuality upon other people and thereby legitimize their sin and force the spread of sin to others by making it legal. It’s like prostitution or drugs. If these were legalized many more young people would indulge in them and no one could tell them not to.
They want to force alternate lifestyles to be taught in schools and even churches to children as a good thing. They have an agenda even though many homosexuals aren’t even aware of it. The average homosexual on the street is being duped by the homosexual leaders (more specifically Satan) to spread evil throughout the world in order to destroy Gods creation. I realize that all homosexual people do not want these things but by participating in the homosexual life style they are supporting the efforts of the leaders and destroying their own souls.
What do homosexuals believe? Among other things:
God does not exist or if he does he will bless my homosexual relationship.
Marriage is for any two people who love each other even between brothers or sisters, mother and daughter, father and son etc.
The Bible has been mistranslated by scholars and is really not against homosexuality.
It’s OK to hate the opposite sex.
If I don’t believe in God that means he doesn’t exist.
Children can be raised just as well with two moms or two dads as a mom and a dad.
God made me a homosexual therefore I can’t help being what I am.
God gave no one a free will to choose for or against him.
God does not really punish sin. I can ignore Gods laws and be happy.
God made me a homosexual and then condemns homosexuality in the Bible.
“Thou shall not lie with mankind as with womankind, it is abomination…Defile not yourselves in any of these things; for in all of these are the nations defiled which I cast out before you and the land is defiled; therefore I do visit (see) the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land itself vomits out its inhabitants” (Leviticus :18,22,24,25)
If you think in strictly secular terms homosexuality is bad enough to ban it because of its indoctrination of children to its lifestyle. It would be (and is now) taught in schools to children against the will of parents like evolution has been for years. Evolution has paved the way for homosexuality. Evolution says there is no God and homosexuality says since there is no God we can do whatever we want to do with no consequences. However, if you think in spiritual terms and believe the Bible you will realize why homosexuality is an abomination to God and a sin worthy of death.
If you are a believer in Jesus Christ and a homosexual you are committing not only a sin but an abomination in the face of your Lord. You will lose all of your rewards in Heaven and can expect sever discipline during your lifetime and could possibility die the sin unto death. You have absolutely no business living in such a sin which God takes very seriously.
If you are an unbeliever, homosexual or not, you must come to the realization that there is a God who has provided a “so great salvation” for you. You may think that you have sinned so much that God will never accept you into Heaven. You may not feel qualified or “holy” enough to enter into the presents of God. There are no qualifications to being saved. There is nothing you can do about past sins yourself. You cannot forgive yourself. You must be forgiven by God. You will be forgiven of all sin past, present and future when you make the decision to accept and believe in the person and work of Jesus Christ on the cross. Jesus Christ paid the death penalty for the sins of the whole human race and all you have to do is acknowledge your faith in Jesus Christ to God the Father in your own words wherever you are right now and eternal life is yours forever. We are on earth for one reason and that is to make a decision for or against Jesus Christ.
“For God loved the world so much that he gave his uniquely born Son, that whoever believes in him shall never perish but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through (belief in) him can be saved. He that believes on him is not condemned: but he that believes not is condemned already because he has not believed in the name of the uniquely born Son of God.”
The only thing that God will condemn you for is unbelief in Jesus Christ because Jesus is salvation and if you reject him there is no other way to be saved.
“Neither is there salvation in any other; for there is no other name under Heaven given among men whereby we must be saved.” (Acts 4:12)
This is something that we must all do. Your sin, your arrogance toward God, your meaningless marriage certificate, your good deeds and morality will do you no good when you stand before God at the final judgment and are forced to confess that you have rejected Jesus Christ. You will know that God is real at that point and you will know that he knows your every thought but on that day it will be too late to change your mind. We must accept him by faith and the time is now.
“Let not sin reign therefore reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in the lust thereof” (Romans 6:12)
“Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved” (Acts 16:31)
“For the wages (payment) of sin is (spiritual) death; but the gift of God is eternal life though Jesus Christ our Lord (Romans 6:23).
