A thoughtful pastor’s teaching on what the Apostle Paul says about homosexual behavior in his letter to the Romans

Homosexuality is the most vivid form of that breakdown. God and man in covenant worship are represented by male and female in covenant sexual union. Therefore, when man turns from God to images of himself, God hands us over to what we have chosen and dramatizes it by male and female turning to images of themselves for sexual union, namely their own sex. Homosexuality is the judgment of God dramatizing the exchange of the glory of God for images of ourselves.

Sadly, the members of the faith community have gone along with easy divorce, pre-marital sexual relationships (not a brief relationship prior to marriage) either numerous partners or moving in with one another and even having children without bothering to get married, doesn't act like the term "marriage" means anything at all so why bother to object when sodomites want their unions sanctioned.

Amen!
