Leviticus 18:22-23
"You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female, it is an abomination.
Also you shall not have intercourse with any animal to be defiled with it, nor any woman stand before an animal to mate with it, it is a perversion."
Leviticus 20-13
"If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death. Their bloodguitiness is upon them."
Romans 1:26-28
"For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions, for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural.
"and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error.
And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper."
New American Standard Bible
I think that pretty much sums up God's views on it. I am not judging it, but i think God shows that He is.
If thats what people want to do behind closed doors, it is their choice, and i won't try to stop them. But when it is forced upon me to accept it as "normal" and "just" an alternate lifestyle, thats where i will stand firm.
I think too many Christians have stood back and not taken a strong stand for God and what HE says. It's all put under the heading of "political correctness". We arn't allowed to judge ANYTHING, for fear that it might upset someone, might hurt someone's feelings. And when you stand for nothing, you fall for everything.
Sexual perversions are forced upon us as "normal" and acceptable behaviour. And EVERY perversion wnats to be accepted as "normal".
I saw a special on TV about the "North American man/boy love association". They ALSO feel they should be accepted as normal and acceptable.
If you accept one, how can you not accept the others? ALL of them can say they were "born that way", and how do you prove otherwise? You might say that that is easy, but once one is allowed, the others will follow suit and force their views upon society.
It's the same thing with abortion. It's acceptable to kill unborn children. I never thought that that would be acceptable in America. But yet it is. And in the Bible there are several passages that show that God knew us when we were still in our mother's womb. HE considers us as people before we are born, yet man doesn't. And whats really sad is that the same people that march as pro-abortionists are usually the same people that will march to "save the whales" or the "spotted owl." Yet a HUMAN life is'nt given a second thought and is flushed away like garbage.
And if a person punches a pregnant woman in the stomach and she loses the baby, the person will be charged with murder. But if the MOTHER decides to murder it, it's ok. Doesn't anyone see the contradiction in that?
I know......."It's the woman's body!" Well, it's not HER body she's choosing to kill. What about the BABY'S human rights?
I will NEVER understand that. And i will never accept that as acceptable behaviour, no matter what mankind says.
Once you start down that slope, it's nearly impossible to climb back up.
Some will hate me for standing up for what the Bible says. But when my time for judgement comes, I'm more concerned about what God will say to me then what people will say about me here.
Again........i don't HATE gays. I HATE their sin.
Same thing with people that have had abortions. I do NOT hate or judge them. But i won't cave in to "political correctness" either.
I have a friend that had an abortion, and she regretted it every day since she did it. And i think a majority of women that have did it would say the same as my friend does, if they are being honest.
