The late pastor and Bible teacher Dr. J. Vernon McGee predicted that the believing Church in America would eventually be forced underground by persecution. He also predicted that the source of that persecution would be the government-approved mainline churches.

I believe that the two issues upon which the believing Church will never compromise are opposition to abortion and homosexual marriage. These are considered sacraments by the apostate mainliners.

Your points are spot-on. This is a good piece.

It’s too bad even Free Republic has people that will hatefully attack fellow conservatives. Attacks like the one or two comments on this thread probably come from those who are not Christians and therefore do not understand—cannot SEE—what’s coming from this massive embrace of homosexuality by our nation-at-large.

Celebrating gay "marriage" is like celebrating Sandra Fluke as father of the year. Fluke is not a parent, if she were a parent she would not be a father, and in any case there is nothing to celebrate about her devotion to government subsidized mass murder of the innocent. Similarly, there is nothing to celebrate about homosexuality, and it's not a marriage even with a big party and a cake.

Recipe for gay wedding cake:

Ingredients:

* 6 cups cake flour sifted
* 2 tablespoons baking powder
* 1 1/2 cups butter or margarine, softened
* 3 cups granulated sugar
* 2 cups milk
* 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
* 12 egg whites
* one cup fresh chicken droppings
* one cup fresh pig manure
* one cup fresh horse manure
* Cake Release

Makes:
12 cups of cake batter.

Instructions:

Step 1
Preheat oven to 325°F. Grease bottom of pans and line with waxed paper or parchment paper, or use Cake Release.

Step 2
Sift together flour and baking powder. Set aside. Cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Set aside. Beat egg whites until stiff, but not dry. Set aside. With mixer at slow speed, add flour mixture to butter mixture, alternately with milk. Beat well after each addition. Beat in vanilla extract. Gently fold egg whites into batter. Pour into prepared pans. Bake until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.

Step 3
Cut one cake in half and spread 1 cup chicken droppings in middle before topping with other half.
Top first cake with one cup well-blended pig manure.
Cut second cake in half and spread with fresh horse manure.
Chill to thicken and spread with classic butter cream frosting for that traditional wedding cake look.

Congratulations - your wedding cake LOOKS just like the real thing!

I remember a time not too long ago when many Freepers thought there would never be a state where 51% of the voting public would accept ‘gay marriage’ as possible.

When one’s definition of marriage is determined by whatever judges, pols, or the voting public think it is at any one time, it shouldn’t have been very shocking. To the state that’s all marriage will ever be. There are many faiths that will never have an absurd difficulty in defining marriage, as opposed to how the state defines the institution.

Thanks for the article. Sometimes I think that we just need to change the language.

Homosexuals, and their sympathizers, destroyed the word “gay”. Lots of people of my generation are named Gay, and it was a perfectly decent word. Now the homosexuals have undermined its meaning starting in the ‘70s and have turned it into a negative word. There is NOTHING gay about the state of homosexuality. To call homosexualilty “gay” is like calling evil “good”, sadness “joy”, uneducated “learned”, etc.

So, now they want the word “marriage” applied to their “unions”. Well, we could just outsmart them and change the name of heterosexual marriage. I don’t have a candidate for a name yet, but I’m thinking about it. Of course we’d have to alter a plethora of laws and regulations to show the differentiation.

I know this sounds like abandoning the battlefield. But, that is exactly how George Washington won the Revolution — disappearing from the battlefield and hitting the enemy elsewhere!

I’m reminded of Lot who accepted the conditions of Sodom around him in exchange for living “peaceably” with the homosexual inhabitants. He even offered up his own daughters to appease them. And when the Lord told him to get out, Lot dug in his heels so that the Lord had to literally drag him out of Sodom while his wife was willing to look back much to her destruction. And then all he could do was moan for what he had lost.

This should be a warning for all Christians that it is far better to live in the wilderness like Abraham than to compromise with homosexuals. There is much to be said for loving and wanting people to come to Christ. But we shouldn’t fool ourselves either.

Homosexuality is the dead canary in the coal mine of civilization. The fact that this is rampant throughout the earth should tell us something.

I wholeheartedly agree that we MUST love people to Christ. Though we need not be obsessive over one particular sin against another, we cannot wink at what Almighty God calls an abomination and which has caused the destruction of entire nations. Our first and primary objective is to preach the Gospel of the grace of God who gives to us eternal life through faith in Jesus Christ. It is only AFTER a person is regenerated and receives a new, spirit nature that he/she can understand the point of holy living that honors and glorifies God - not to BE saved, but because we ARE saved.

We would be sorely remiss if we did not help one another to come out of sinful lifestyles and that cannot happen if we pretend homosexual acts are "just another lifestyle choice" equal in value to heterosexual marriage. It would be one thing if the idea of homosexual acts being sinful was a "human" invention, or societal "norm" akin to Victorian prudishness in dress codes. But, the fact that God has ALWAYS condemned such actions from the start and enacted severe punishments for those who indulged in them, shows us that it is something that HE judges and denounces. It's not up to us to tell God how to manage His creation or deem right from wrong.

That really IS the issue here. A Godless people thinks it can decide for itself what is right or wrong, good or bad. As the article states, a society or nation that goes down that path without stopping and repenting is surely headed for destruction. It's happened before, it can/will happen again. May Christ find us faithful to Him.

Prepare for Gay Marriage [Warning]

Prepare for BRIMSTONE [HOT!]




Genesis 13:13
Now the men of Sodom were wicked and were sinning greatly against the LORD.

Genesis 18:20-21
20. Then the LORD said, "The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and
their sin so grievous
21. that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know."

Genesis 19:4-7
4. Before they had gone to bed, all the men
from every part of the city of Sodom--both young and old--surrounded the house.
5. They called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them
."
6. Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him
7. and said, "No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing.

Psalms 12:8 The wicked freely strut about when what is vile is honored among men.

Doonesbury Cartoon for Feb/08/2013

Isaiah 3:9 The look on their faces testifies against them; they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it. Woe to them! They have brought disaster upon themselves.

2 Peter 2:13b Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.


Ezekiel 16:49-50
49. "`Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.
50. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.



2 Peter 2

1. But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves.
2. Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
3. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
4. For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell, putting them into gloomy dungeons to be held for judgment;
5. if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others;
6. if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly;
7. and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless men
8. (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)--
9. if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment.
10. This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the sinful nature and despise authority. Bold and arrogant, these men are not afraid to slander celestial beings;
11. yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not bring slanderous accusations against such beings in the presence of the Lord.
12. But these men blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like beasts they too will perish.
13. They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done.
Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.



But there IS hope!!!

1 Corinthians 6:9-11

9. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived:
Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.


If you could NOT change, you would be in most pitiful shape...

I’m not so sure they should be so loved.

Scripture very well tells us of those who rejected God’s natural affection and God Himself and were then turned over to their reprobate mind.

Even when fulfilling the Great Commission, were are also told to sell our tunic to buy a sword if unarmed and to not cast pearls before swine.

For those who have never heard the Gospel, yes, we should love them and share the Gospel. For those who have heard, rejected, and repetitively run to their sin, then attack Christ and God in their arrogance, they are enemies of Christ, not those who are to be loved.

Vengeance is the Lord’s, but giving them additional love in many cases is simply casting pearls before swine and may aggravate their condition to even lower aggressive states than before.
