Supreme Court rules 5-4 that same-sex couples can marry in all 50 states
Our Country has just decided to leave God totally out of our country. When a nation turns from God’s Truth, the Lord will no longer bless us like in the past. Shame on our country.
“Behold, I set before you today a blessing and a curse: the blessing, if you obey the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you today; and the curse, if you do not obey the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside from the way which I command you today, to go after other gods which you have not known. (Deuteronomy 11:26-28 NKJV)

Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.” (Genesis 1:26-28 NKJV)

For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH.” For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things. Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.
(Romans 1:17-32 NKJV)
*
if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land. (2 Chronicles 7:14 NKJV)

Liz, #1 I do not appreciate your cussing. Therefore, I am going back into comments and ##ing out your words.
#2 When God created the world, it was created perfect. “Male and female” created He them. In Genesis 3, you will read where, because of sin, God cursed the world. It was so bad that God condemned the whole world, minus 8 people on board the Ark, to death. God did not make three; man, women, and homos. He made man and women and intended on those two becoming ONE. Two men or two women cannot become one.
#3 We are not calling you names. We have only quoted scripture. If you are angry, it is at God. He loves you as do we. We just do not agree with your rebellion against Him.

Don’t make me laugh, you hobestly believe that god loves you because you single out the minority? He doesn’t. God has no exceptions for his love AT ALL. I guarantee you sin every single day just by wearing shoes with laces. The bible has exaggerated commands that no one will ever truly follow the way he wants. That being the case, no one goes to heaven. Besides, the living world with people like you stuffing your crotches into the bible and blasting the minorities with your unwanted loads are what make the world hell already. There cannot possibly be anything worse that that and I pity your entire religion for believing such worthless trash.

Wow this is f### psycho. Are you all serious? Love is love. There is no difference. God also says you can’t wear two different types of fabric, you are all insane. If god made everything then he also made gays. If he makes no mistakes then why do hateful people like you exist? You bring total disgrace to God’s image of human kindness!

Paul in Romans 1 does not list homosexuals as worthy of death but does list the gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, rebellious toward parents, foolish, faithless, heartless and the ruthless. No one clamors that Paul must be literally followed in this regard, as he himself indicates that we are not to judge others because of that list!

My issue is with you. Your issue is your mixed up understandings of religious study. To read is to see, but to observe is to understand.

“God saw everything that [God] had made, and indeed, it was very good.” This verse literally and inescapably means that ALL of creation is good. It also means that homosexuality, as an incontrovertible part of creation, is therefore irrefutably good.
Ta dah! Check it out I can quote the bible too!

Thanks, both of you for commenting. I usually don’t say much politically, but this ruling really deeply saddens me. We must try harder to love and win others to Christ before it is too late.

I have not been listening to the news this morning, so I just heard that sad news here. Our country and our world is more and more as it was in the days of Noah.
But though our country goes down, there will still be individuals like Noah who are faithful. Our faithful prayers and writing will be used for His glory. I pray many will not regard this new law as freedom. We must always follow the Lord!

These conclusions mean that Homosexuality is a part of creation not a deviance from it. Genesis 1:31 tells us that when God completed creation, “God saw everything that [God] had made, and indeed, it was very good.” This verse literally and inescapably means that ALL of creation is good. It also means that homosexuality, as an incontrovertible part of creation, is therefore irrefutably good.
So you can ### ###. Love is love.

In other words, hateful people like you are more likely to see help than anyone in the lgbt community. Also being deceitful is probably pretty bad too, which is also involved here, because I only ended up here looking for information about birds. You, this website, and your concept of religious beliefs are all f###ked up.

It is clear from Romans 1:24-27 that people who were not thankful to God but rebelled against Him, God finally gives them up to impurity and degrading passions that are unnatural. This is what homosexuality is–unnatural passions where women desire other women and men desire other men. This unnatural passion in itself is God’s wrath against them.
As for Genesis 1:31, this is just after God’s creation and before sin came. At this time there was just Adam (a man) and Eve (a women), and they were husbasnd and wife. Homosexuality didn’t come until later when sin came.

The term “homosexual” didn’t exist until 1892. Some modern Bible translations say that “homosexuals” will not inherit the kingdom of God, but neither the concept nor the word for people with exclusive same-sex attraction existed before the late 19th century. While the Bible rejects lustful same-sex behavior, that’s very different from a condemnation of all gay people and relationships.
