traditionally, churches didn't have to speak to ones sexuality.....it was a given...as was growing up and getting married and having children and working for a living...

this strange bizarre culture we have no has no "givens".....no compass to go by....no rules/regulations/etc...

the churches are just winging it as the wind blows...

See that first word is where it all goes wrong - traditionally. When we base our morals on traditions of men - we build our foundation on sand. Because over the years, men can change their minds. What grandpa said was bad, I can say is good.

If we only had a written document that expressed perfect justice and morality, and was unchanging...

When men changed their minds, we could refer back to that document to get our moral compass pointed in the right direction...

this strange bizarre culture we have no has no "givens".....no compass to go by....no rules/regulations/etc...

And yet we have this thing called the Bible, the very Word of God.

To follow it, or not to follow it, that is the question.
