Far too frequently do I hear people advocating the atrocity of homosexual marriage. Shockingly, many of these gay rights activists also claim to be Christians. These are people that we sit next to in church, who claim to read the Bible and are seen doing what would seem to be "Christian" things.
These so called "Christian" gay rights activists seem to interpret God's love as tolerance for anything that we do. To them this includes tolerance of other lifestyles that other so called believers and non-believers may lead.
This belief is diametrically opposite to what he Bible really says concerning homosexuality and any other ungodly lifestyle for that matter. Genesis 13:13 states that, "[...] the men of Sodom were wicked and were sinning greatly against the Lord." Scrolling down to Genesis 19:5-7 we find that among their many sins was homosexuality. "They called to Lot, 'Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them.' Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him and said, 'No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing.'" Verses 24-25 outline Sodom and it's sister city Gomorrah's punishment. "Then the Lord rained down burning sulfur on Sodom and Gomorrah—from the Lord out of the heavens. Thus he overthrew those cities and the entire plain, including all those living in the cities—and also the vegetation in the land." Obviously, God is not "tolerant" of sinful lifestyles.
So how should Christians treat gay rights activists? Well how would you treat anyone who is about to burn their hand on a stove? Warn them of what they are doing before it is too late. The best way you can help someone is by telling them the truth.
"Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” John 8:32

Politically Correct
Well I have to say I've been a little afraid to start writing blog posts. Not because I don't have anything to say-no just I think I should warn you all that this blogger has another definition for the phrase "politically correct."
For all of you mathematicians out there, use the reciprocal of the "politically correct" statement. For example, instead of undocumented worker I use the phrase illegal immigrant. Instead of unlicensed pharmacist I say drug dealer. Instead of sexual orientation I say sinful desires, instead of fetus I say baby, and instead of progressive I say socialist.
I suppose you can see why I was a little nervous about starting my blog. Not many people these days are willing to tell you the way things really are and they would prefer that I wasn't either. Too late, the ice is broken and I intend to tell readers the truth regardless of what other people believe I should be saying. So I leave you with this verse,
"Then he told them: Go and preach the good news to everyone in the world. Anyone who believes me and is baptized will be saved. But anyone who refuses to believe me will be condemned." Mark 16:15-16
