It will be interesting to see if the usual suspects ever try to browbeat Muslims and mosques in America over this issue. I would not want to be the judge who tries to force this practice on the Muslims (or work in his courthouse).
Among true Christians it is not a matter of holding out; it is non-negotiable. There’s nothing to talk about.
Nobody said following the Narrow Way would be easy. In fact Our Lord told us we would be hated for being faithful. But hated or not to remain faithful will result in hearing the words, 'Well done good and faithful servant!'on that last day.
Not to be contrary, but the Catholic, Orthodox, fundamental, and charismatic churches also reject homosexual marriage.
Between gay marriage and abortion for non-Muslims, how low before Muslims have the majority vote?
I’m so sick and tired of these negative-nilly articles. Writers like this offer up nothing positive and uplifting. There’s never any good news for religion. Sometimes it makes me actually want to commit suicide.
Catechism of the Catholic Church
2357 Homosexuality refers to relations between men or between women who experience an exclusive or predominant sexual attraction toward persons of the same sex. It has taken a great variety of forms through the centuries and in different cultures. Its psychological genesis remains largely unexplained. Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity, tradition has always declared that "homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered." They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved. |
Traditionalist Catholic would be another group...but apparently we’re too small to matter.
Their contention is ridiculous, a good number of other-than-evangelicals see same-sex “marriage” as ridiculous as well.
But they just put a target on our backs. Make no mistake about it.
It’s called “Holy Matrimony” for a reason, and there ain’t nothing holy about a pair of queers, that’s for sure.
Only between 20 and 21 countries recognize re-defined marriage. That is a tiny percentage of the entire world.
And neither the entire world, nor even a plurality of nations, will likely ever recognize it - at least not without Fascistic force applied.
I’m not sure if Lutheran Church Missouri Synod considers itself to be Evangelical, but I am fairly confident that it will never accept homosexual unions.
The Bible will never change, so a true Christian’s attitude toward behaviors God abhors will never change...
If evangelicals or Baptists accept “Gay Marriage” I will never set foot in church again.
Evangelicals are not just the last holdouts on Homosexual marriage. Every thinking person knows what marriage is. It is the union of a man and a woman for the purpose of procreation. Homosexuals cannot procreate!
