Commentary & AnalysisbyL. A. MarzulliPope Francis After No Vote on Gays:‘God Not Afraid of New Things’http://www.truthrevolt.org/news/pope-francis-after-no-vote-gays-god-not-afraid-new-thingsPope Francis on Sunday beatified Pope Paul VI, while urging a deadlocked synod to embrace gay marriage.“God is not afraid of new things!” the Pope said in his Sunday homily. “That is why he is continually surprising us, opening our hearts and guiding us in unexpected ways.”Francis said would have been “worried and saddened” if there had not been “animated discussions” or if “everyone had been in agreement or silent in a false and acquiescent peace,” the Associated Press reported. He also cautioned against “hostile inflexibility, that is, wanting to close oneself within the written word, and not allowing oneself to be surprised by God.”It’s Monday and I’m back from yet another trip and still a little jet lagged.First off, there is a culture war that is raging all around us. What was considered “fringe or radical” 50 years ago is now the new norm. We see every king of sex act openly promoted in “gay” parades all over the world. https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/i-attended-ottawa-pride.-heres-what-i-sawDrag queens have their own TV show, http://www.logotv.com/shows/rupauls_drag_race/season_6/series.jhtmland transgendered first graders can use the bathroom of the sex they think they are, rather than the sex they are biologically born with. http://www.cnn.com/2013/06/24/us/colorado-transgender-girl-school/If you run a bakery and decide not to create a wedding cake for gay couples you can lose your business. http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/oregon-cake-bakers-vvs“I mean quite frankly, they didn’t just harass us, they harassed the other wedding vendors that we did business with. It cut off our referral system,” Aaron Klein, Melissa’s husband, said. “We had to shut the shop down. Melissa does very limited cakes out of our house. I mean we’re facing in excess of $150,000 of damages for this, just for simply standing by my first amendment rights.”Klein said it’s a “violation of my conscience, I mean it’s a violation of my religious freedom.”“I mean it’s horrible to see your own government doing this to you,” Aaron Klein said.Sprigg later asked the couple if the whole dispute was really about sexual orientation.“It’s about marriage and the event,” Aaron Klein said.The forced gay agenda is fascism and it is in full swing. It is forcing those of us who disagree with a homosexual lifestyle to accept it, to embrace it and if anyone raises a dissenting voice they are called a homophobe and then targeted, like the Klein’s were.As a Christian we are told to love the sinner but hate the sin. There are ways in which to live that are acceptable to a Holy God and ways that are not. I know and have known many gay people. I treat them the same as I would anyone else, with love. Let’s back up a moment. If a couple is living together outside of marriage, it’s wrong. Period. If I am having sex with another woman while I’m married, it’s wrong, period. If I hate someone because they are a different ethinicity, it’s wrong, period. The list of wrong actions goes on and it includes the gay lifestyle: In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error. Romans 1:27
Phil Robertson, of Duck Dynasty weighed in on the Gay issue and then was suspended from the TV show until millions of viewers protested. This is what he had to say about gay marriage.“It seems like, to me, a vagina — as a man — would be more desirable than a man’s anus,” Robertson told GQ. “That’s just me. I’m just thinking: There’s more there! She’s got more to offer. I mean, come on, dudes! You know what I’m saying? But hey, sin: It’s not logical, my man. It’s just not logical.”“Everything is blurred on what’s right and what’s wrong. Sin becomes fine,” he later added. “Start with homosexual behavior and just morph out from there. Bestiality, sleeping around with this woman and that woman and that woman and those men. Don’t be deceived. Neither the adulterers, the idolaters, the male prostitutes, the homosexual offenders, the greedy, the drunkards, the slanderers, the swindlers — they won’t inherit the kingdom of God. Don’t deceive yourself. It’s not right.”http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/12/18/duck-dynasty-phil-robertson-gay_n_4465564.htmlRobertson mails it. He’s 100% correct and while some might find his remarks crude, he reveals the true nature of gay sex, which for men is anal intercourse.So what are we to do now that the head of the largest Christian denomination in the world declares that gay marriage is good and then justifies it by telling us God is not afraid of new things? His statements are non-Biblical and while they may seem right to him, they are an affront to what is written in God’s word.In closing todays post. We are to show love to everyone around us, period. No matter who they are, what they look like or their sexual orientation. However, sin is sin and no matter how many funny hats and robes a person puts on, (see picture above) as Christians we can not and will not condone it. Gods written-word is sacrosanct and who is the Pope to tell us otherwise? There are millions of Christians who disagree with the Popes stance on Gay marriage. It’s time to stand up for traditional marriage between one man and one woman, period. Signs of the times? You bet.http://lamarzulli.wordpress.com/
