GAY MARRIAGES

Homosexuality/Lesbianism

 

 

What Hath God Said? …

 

If you haven't notice, right before the release of the movie “The Passion of The Christ,” the gay marriages began.  The devil was upset and unable to stop the movie (with all of the negative publicity) - so, he devised another plan.  Take the focus off of the movie by counteracting it with this gay marriage issue. Of course this is not new to God.  It is however an abomination to Him.  Please keep in mind that God is the creator and originator.  Now, since the devil does not have the ability to create, he perverts the truth. We as Believers must STAND for what is right.  I don't care if everybody is doing it and congress approves of it. We pray that the constitution be amended to make same-sex marriages a federal crime but if it never happens we are to still stand upon the principles of the infallible and immutable word of God!

Remember:  You are obligated to love the sinner BUT you must hate the sin.

 

WHY?

Roman 1:32   Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

 

 

Back To The Beginning: He made them Male & Female and the Two became One Flesh! Not Two Males and Not Two Females.

 

Genesis 2:18-25

18.  And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.

19.  And out of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof.

20.  And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.

 21.  And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;

 22.  And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.

 23.  And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.

 24.  Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.

 25.  And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.

 

Genesis 1:26-28

26.  And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

 27.  So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

 28.  And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

 

Now, since God is the ONLY creator, the devil does not have creative ability.  Therefore, what he does is takes that which is good (sex in its proper environment with the right gender) and twist or perverts it.


Pervert; Perverse; Perversion = (Synonyms) Distort – Misrepresent – Change – Lead Astray

Definition: To cause to turn from what is considered morally right: CORRUPT.  To reduce to a lower condition: DEBASE.

 

In this, it opens you up to oppression, depression and in some cases possession of every fowl spirit.

 

 

If you don't tell the truth how will they know? 

 

II Corinthians 4:3,4

3.  But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:

4.  In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

 

 

And if you are ashamed to preach the gospel of Jesus here, he will likewise be ashamed to stand on your behalf before the Father. 

 

Matthew 10:32-34

32.  Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven.

33.  But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.

 

Confess in the Greek = Comes in agreement with = Accept who Christ is and all that He stands for.

 

Paul said, "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth"                                  (Romans 1:16)

Do You Want Their Blood On Your Hands?

 

Ezekiel 3:18-20

18.  When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand.

19.  Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul.

20.  Again, When a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumblingblock before him, he shall die: because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thine hand.

21.  Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he is warned; also thou hast delivered thy soul.

 

 

Finally, here are a few scripture of the mind of God in regards to same-sex relationships:  Please read, preach it and pass on to others.

Leviticus 20:13

13. If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.


Leviticus 18:22

22.    Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.


Romans 1:18-31

18.  For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;

19.  Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.

20.  For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

21.  Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

22.  Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

23.  And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

24.  Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:

25.  Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

26.  For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

27.  And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

28.  And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;

29.  Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,

30.  Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

31.  Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:


II Timothy 3:1-5

1.  This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.

 2.  For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

 3.  Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,

 4.  Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

 5.  Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.


Jude 1:7-8

7.  Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

8.  Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities.

 

Remember: Before ministering to others, everything you say must be said in love.  Your desire is to win them through the love of Christ.  Allow God to use you to bring them into a loving relationship with Him.

 

Now, that you’ve gone through this lesson, get ready for God to use you.

 

1)     Clear Up The Airways: Pray against all of the distractions of the devil that would keep that person from receiving God’s word.

2)     Don’t Be Discourage:  As with Paul and Apollos, one plants and the other waters but God gives the increase.

3)     What If They Reject You?  They’re not.  They are rejecting the one who sent you (GOD).  Just do your part and the blood will not be on your hands.

 

Final Scripture:

 

Colossians 4:5,6

5.  Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time.

6.  Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.
