Churches being forced to preform gay marriage.
1/27/2014 | Darren Morrison

Churches being forced to preform gay marriage. Many Gay advocate groups try to assure that Churches will not be forced to preform gay marriages. But while they are saying this, law suits spring up in States that already have gay marriage. Once gay marriage is legal many will use the equal protect laws to force there will and Bible believing Christians on your church. I have always believed that gay marriage is being pushed to try to make them seem normal. To make homosexuality main stream and total accepted but most gay people see the Bible Christianity and many churches as a stumbling block for them. There already pro-gay churches all over the United States but that is not enough they want all churches to accept them and they want the bible changed to make them just like the rest of us. They have already changed many of the modern versions of the bible to be pro-gay like the NIV and NKJV among others. But that is not enough they want to ban the King James Bible the most popular version and worlds best seller ever. They want to make it against the law for churches to refuse to preform gay marriages. How did I come up with this information well quick internet searches will reveal news story of Gays suing churches that refuse to preform gay ceremonies regard less of Gay groups saying that will never happen it is already happening. In Canada it is illegal for preachers to preach out load verse deemed to be anti-gay. Saying certain verse in the bible could put men of GOD legal problems and the United Nations wants to adopt those hate speech laws worldwide. What can we do about it? Well the most important thing is to do is to spread the word to non-believers to tell everyone everywhere to repent that could change the tide. Other things you really need to do is place a statement into your bi-laws that you may only preform marriages what you believe they ought. Make sure to be very specific with your wording. Just saying it is in the bible will not hold up in courts. Courts are of the world not of GOD. Whether you are in a church building or a home church this should be done to prevent frivolous lawsuit to drain money from your church, this is an ever growing injustice of the left, finding people they do not agree with a sue them to rob people of money by using the courts.

They are not being forced.

They are being told they must do so to receive special tax-free status as a church.

Stop leaning on the government, you can do what you want.

Homosexual and leftists radicals have taken this one step at a time and NEVER give back a step taken. They will not stop until not only is homosexual “marriage” accepted but also approved. It is also clear that radical homosexuals will not coexist with Christianity. While Christians preach peace and tolerance, homosexuals attack using just the opposite tactics. Of course these radicals will be assigned to the pits of hell eventually, but it will be tough going for Christians until that happens.

He did not say churches are being forced to perform gay marriages. He said preform. I'm not sure what's involved there, but I'm sure it's different.

What is the source? Is this a vanity?

It's been months since he's posted anything. Maybe RMrattlesname (who I assume is also author Darren Morrison) forgot.

At first I thought it was a typo, but I’m seeing the word “preform” a lot here...

I’m sorry, but the NKJV is just as opposed to homosexuality as the KJV. In fact, it is actually a little more specific. For example, in 1 Cor. 6:9 the KJV refers to “the effeminate” not inheriting the kingdom of God, but the NKJV refers to them as “homosexuals”.

I don’t disagree that gays would like to make the Church bow to their will, but such hyperbole does not enhance your credibility.

Scary spelling and grammar. I can see a day when churches won’t do weddings, in order to avoid this problem.

It's a mutiny of deviated preverts!

"Marriage" has a civil definition in many places, which at one time corresponded to the religious definition. "Holy Matrimony" has only a religious definition.

If churches refuse to perform anything other than services of Holy Matrimony, the State can do nothing about it.

Advise your congregation and pastor accordingly to make sure that your church by-laws are explicit on this point and there will be nothing a pair of faggots can do to make your church perform a service its bylaws do not provide for.

FReegards!

Preform? Doesn’t that have something to do with the pouring of concrete?

I used to think that way too, but now that judges are requiring that pastry shops bake cakes, an photographers take pictures for gay weddings, I'm not sure if it's true anymore.

Even for-profit businesses aren't allowed to choose their clients anymore.

I don’t see this as a possibility or a problem. You would have to fight the Catholic Church on this, and they won’t marry or even bury someone who’s not OK with the church.

Sure, you can. Just like the cake bakers in Oregon, and the photographers in New Mexico.
