Homosexuality

The Biblical view of morality is under severe attack by the left wing extremists here in America. Hollywood in all of its glamour, desensetizes us at a rapid pace, through and by her vile and perverse influences on and off the big screen ! What can we do, as strong Bible believing people, to counter act this polluted agenda of sin? First, we must begin by teaching that truth is absolute, and is found within the pages of the Bible (John 8:32, John14:6, John 17:17). Only the Sacred Writings are "given by the inspiration of God" (2 Tim 3:16), and we must guide people to the Divine source of authority and help. As of recent, the United Church of Christ (which is not affiliated with *the* church of Christ) has openly declared the acceptance of permitting their "clergy" to perform homosexual marriages with the approval of the church (if you can call it a church) ?!? Friends, this is the most blatant and direct rejection of truth, in regards to morality, that we have seen as of yet! Even Jesus Himself said, "Have ye not read, that he that made them from the beginning made them male and female" (read Matt 19:1-9)? Christ has all authority in heaven and on earth (Matt 28:18), and He declared, "If ye love me, keep my commandments" (John 14:15). Paul said, "The things I write unto you are as of the commandments of the Lord" (1 Cor 14:37). Paul, by the Holy Spirit, called homosexuality a sin (1 Cor 6:9) and those who persist in it, without repenting (Luke 13:3), and obeying the gospel (2 Thess. 1:8 ), cannot "enter the kingdom of God" (1 Cor 6:11).

Paul made known that homosexuality is "against nature" and is "unseemly" (Read Romans 1), and closed his remarks in that chapter by saying that they which practice such are "worthy of death" (a reference to spiritual death). Let us remember the words of Jesus, "Fear not Him who destroys the body, but fear Him who will destroy both body and soul in hell" (Matt 10:28). If we "fear God and keep His commandments" (Eccl 12:13), we will never be guilty of supporting the perverse, vile, and wicked lifestyle of homosexuality. While this message may be unpopular she is true and much needed! Let the Bible speak (1 Pet 4:11).
