Same Sex Marriage

A simple way to summarize the Bible's teaching on sexuality is to begin with God's blessing is only withing the marriage covenant between a man and a woman. Sex outside that covenant relationship is expicitly forbidden, regardless of the alternative expressions form. Every believer knowsthat prohibitions are for our good. The Bible prohibits all same sex acts and behaviors. Therefore we know that homosexuality is a sin and to bless it or approve of it is sin as well. Marriage is a public institution. Historically societies have granted special recognition and privileges to marriage because it is the central organizing institution of all society. Marriage regulates relationships, sexuality, human reproduction, lineage, kinship, as well as family structure. Marriage regulates morality. This Ammendment One issue is about the redefining of reproduction and parenthood. It means that the replacement of something that has been the "social" order by the adoption of a new morality. All of this chaos simply because sinful man refuses to accept the true love of the true God. That by repentance and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ that men must be saved from their sins. May God grant mercy to the unbeliever that he would believe God and take God at His Word.
