Last
Week’s Bible Question
Q:
Who
said: “A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from
heaven.”
A:
John
the Baptist (John 3:27)
This
Week’s Bible Question
Who
said: “Lord, trouble not thyself; for I am not worthy that thou
shouldest enter under my roof.”

If
you are busy being good,
And
doing just the best you could,
You’d
not have time to blame the man
Who’s
doing just the best he can.

WHERE
DO WE GO FROM HERE?
Luke
Shira
Same sex
marriages are here! “Pandora's Box has been opened." A polygamist
with five wives and twenty-nine grandchildren has stated he has as much
right to his family as the same-sex marriages. The argument being, what
two consenting adults do behind closed doors is no one's business. A man
was on one of the talk shows and said he loved his horse and wanted to
marry the animal. His argument was the same as the other two.
My,
my! Where will it all end? Anyone with an ounce of sense can see that
everything mentioned has to do with behavior. People are not homosexuals
because they were born that way, but because of their desire. God did
not create people and then condemn them because they are that way. Sodom
and Gomorrah and the cities about them are mentioned specifically as "giving
themselves over to fornication and going after strange flesh”
(Jude 7).
The
spirit of Sodom is about us everywhere - on TV, in the movies, in books
and magazines, and in the newspapers that tell of an ungodly judge who
declares same-sex marriages legal and acceptable.
Listen
to the law of God to Israel, "There shall be no whore of the
daughters of Israel nor a sodomite of the sons of Israel"
(Deuteronomy 23:17). Read Romans 1:26-27, "For this reason God
gave them up to vile passions, for even their women exchanged their
natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men leaving
the natural use of the woman burned in their lust one for another, men
with men committing what is shameful and receiving in themselves the
penalty of their error which was due." There will be no room in
Heaven for a practicing homosexual. Am I being cruel? No, just quoting
God.
It
was made clear from the beginning that God intended for a man to have a
woman for his mate. God "made" a woman for man from
man's own side and presented her to man (Adam). Not man for man, or
woman for woman. Many will lose their soul because they are thinking of
the pleasures of today, not the consequences of eternity. When are
God-fearing folks going to rise up against this detriment to our society
and our country!! On the grounds used by the homosexuals, many groups
can demand, and expect to receive, the same rights, However, they are
wrong!
