It is not only amazing how time flies as you get older but also how times change and how quickly they change. It was interesting watching the online news on CNN last week when the early top stories in the morning were three separate terrorist attacks which soon became secondary stories after the supreme courts decision to legalize gay marriage in all 50 states. I was also amazed on Facebook the posts of rainbows or support, etc for the decision. You would think everyone was waiting for the announcement as it seems from all the posts on FB that more than half of the nation came out of the closet as gay. I thought about posting something to the contrary but decided against as all it would do is create arguments. You can't argue with a non Christian about what the Bible says. The Bible is for Christians, not for non Christians, so any argument you have against the decision will not even be seen as relevant to them.
As I thought more about the supreme courts decision to legalize gay marriage, I thought of Sodom and Gomorrah and how judgment for them will be easier than for us. I also thought, "Why are people so pro-gay". The only answer I could come up with is that now we have permission to sin. The Supreme Court says it is okay, we can do what we want to do, and it is legal.
At some point (and I am sure it will not be too far off) churches and pastors will be going to court because they will refuse to marry these people. There will always be that one person/couple who wants to pursue it right up to the supreme court that "it is their right to be married in a church", if only to make a statement, not that they care anything about God or the church. We are a society run by social media and whatever the majority sees as what should be allowed. The government, wanting the peoples votes, and the church, wanting the people in the pews, will unfortunately bend the rules or water down the Gospel in order for this to happen. What's next?
News flash to the future. July 30th, 2025, CNN reports Polygamy legalized in all 50 states. You can marry multiple partners, male, female or whatever. Next news flash ten years later, 2035, the Supreme Court says it is okay for pet lovers to marry their pets. I know you are thinking, "Now you are getting carried away". Well I guess we will wait and see, after all, look back even 30 years ago and see how far we have fallen to this day.
