.
Mr. Phil Robertson got himself in hot water recently for taking a stand
against certain kinds of sexual conduct. But whether you disagree with him
or not, Mr. Robertson is on good solid Christian ground because gays and
lesbians are depicted in the Bible as shameful, indecent, and unnatural.
†. Rom 1:26-27 . . God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women
exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men
also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for
one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men.
Now, some of you are probably going to construe those remarks as hate
speech; but if you do, don't come after me; I'm not the bad guy: the author
of Romans is your bad guy. I'm the author of neither the Bible nor of
Christianity; and if you're not adult enough to discuss Christianity on a
biblical level, then maybe you shouldn't be on a forum set up for discussing
Christianity.
You know; I am really curious how in the world gays and lesbians obtained
so much respectability. I mean; for centuries their manner of life was
deemed extremely inappropriate, and now all of a sudden it has Federal
protections as if gays and lesbians are on some sort of endangered species
list.
Below is yet another amazing change in people's thinking.
Back in the decade of the 1950's, my sister, while in high school, got herself
knocked-up out of wedlock. So our parents whisked her off to an out-of
state aunt until her baby was born; after which she gave it up for adoption.
You see, in those days pre-marital conception was a disgrace; but nowadays
celebrities go on talk shows to boast about their illegitimate children; even
babies conceived with other people before their divorces are final; which is a
double whammy of adultery and shame.
But according to biblical Christianity, there's a reckoning coming when all
manner of sexual behaviors unapproved by God will finally be put in a right
perspective.
†. Jude 1:7 . . Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them in a similar
manner to these, having given themselves over to sexual immorality and
gone after strange flesh, are set forth as an example, suffering the
vengeance of eternal fire.
†. 2Pet 2:6 . . He turned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes--
condemned them to destruction --making them an example to those who
afterward would live ungodly.
