The word of God plainly defines Homosexuality as sin. Therefore, to endorse homosexuality is the same as endorsing sin.<br /><br /> Although Homosexuality is not the only sin, it is the only sin that mankind commits with the body...not only is it sin, it defines the laws of nature to say the least.<br /><br />Moreover, we live in a period of idol worshipping. The biggest idol is popularity and the almighty dollar bill. It is a sad thing when folk turn away from the creator of wealth and embrace the emptyness of wealth itself. It is even a more troubling thing when folk permit preasures and human desire become more stronger in their lives than the word of God.<br /><br />Folk who feel that they need votes in order to survive, will alway cater to the majority vote caster. That is an established fact...this escalation of accepting the homosexual lifestyle is helping me to see that many who say they are Christians are not, and thats a sad thing.<br /><br />So then, what does the true Christian do? The answer is simple, keep holding up the things of God. It is Christ Himself who declares that if He is lifted up, He will draw all men into Himself.<br /><br />A true Christian will do good to all mankind, especially those who are of the household of God. A true Christian will not turn against a weak sister or brother and arm up with unGodly folk in an effort to point out fault..there is much i could say about the lifestyle of a true Christian, but I will close here by saying anything that is contrary to the word of God is sin whether it be homosexuality, hatred, or just plain ungratefulness for the things God has done...Rosahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10411253475019638306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2357475346759651140.post-85551144263274787322012-05-21T17:40:37.417-05:002012-05-21T17:40:37.417-05:00Ed,

Marriages are regulated by each state. The POTUS can do nothing to legislate Marriages. If you check out some of the laws of some states, living together is ok. I agree that this is a can of worms that needs to be explored. The common rule is, "one man for one woman for one lifetime." However, the divorce rate among Christians is just as high as non-Christians. Under grace or the standard marriage vows, there is no grounds for separation. I believe until death do us part.Berean01https://www.blogger.com/profile/01725816762386168069noreply@blogger.com
