We need to remember that the enemy is our enemy. All of us, to some extent, have been victims of this enemy. Some more than others. "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." Ephesians 6:12 KJV Shalom.

The whole homosexual....trans-sexual thing that they have tried to shove down our throat for years is more of a culture attack. Where should or kids go to the rest room?
In the Navy I had weightlifter friend that was showering. In the military the showers are open and they have shower poles. A nude officer came up to him and asked him for a date. I was told that my friend hit him so hard his feet left the ground.
A lot to that story, but when we were standing in front of the Captain, I told him that this event was an assault. If we are going to allow this I should be allowed to walk into the women's shower naked and ask them out.
They wait in bathrooms for children to come in.
Two homosexuals going into a church to get married is needless to say, sacrilegious. Why do they insist on taking a dump on the church and Christian beliefs. There is no reason for it. There is no reason to call it a marriage.
Domestic partners can be made legal. Next it will be K-9 partners.
Same sex marriages is an attack on our culture and our religion. There is enough of that going on now.
So no, same sex marriages should not be legal.

I believe that we should live a life that is pleasing to God. At the same time, I believe that we should permit others the freedom to live their lives as they see fit. God gave you free will, so who are you to not extend free will to others? Did Jesus command us to create laws that criminalize immoral behavior? Jesus told Mary Magdalene to "sin no more" rather than follow through with the punishment for such behavior under the current law, which was death by stoning.
That's complicated. Yes, hypothetically, all governments should recognize God's supremacy, and thus, His will. ...it will never, ever happen, but I still hold them accountable for not knowing the difference, or even right from wrong.
All immoral behaviour should be denounced and prohibited where possible. The majority, if not all sins, are identifiable to all creatures created in God's image, who are familiar with the Bible or not, ...just ask any atheist (they will swear that they are good people without God).
Thus, morality is incumbent upon all authorities to implement as a rule, for the protection of their subjects.
Therefore, they have no excuse to permit lascivious and hedonistic behaviour (would they let their daughters engage?).
It's interesting that, in the 4 gospels, Jesus NEVER mentioned homosexuality. By the same token, perhaps there are other "immoral" behaviors that Jesus did not discuss.
The creed of a policeman is to serve and protect. What else are governments there for?
I know a guy who long ago wrote a song where he said that sometimes we all give in and judge each other by our sin. I believe we all stand on even ground before God. We bring nothing but our sin. Shalom P.S. My stupid Grammarly is telling me to respell your name scalp. Lol Life is too serious to be too serious about. If you catch my drift. Peace.
Saying that someone will not inherit God's kingdom doesn't necessarily translate that they will burn in Hell, at least not to me.
Some believe in purgatory, where souls go to become cleansed and purified of their immoralities before they can enter Heaven.
Personally speaking, I avoid making definitive declarations that ANYONE is going to Hell because, obviously, I don't KNOW that. I wouldn't be surprised if Hitler is in Heaven. I'm not saying he is, I'm simply saying that I do NOT know.
Incidental. Most denominations do not contend on moral issues, strictly doctrinal (soteriology, ecclesiology, eschatology, christology, ...)
I believe that God gave us free will so that we can FREELY go to him. I AGREE that every person and every government should strive to follow God's laws. I simply DISAGREE that we should forbid non-believers from being able to exercise their own FREE WILL to reject Christian theology.
Should we lock up homosexuals so that they can't engage in homosexual sexual activity?
Should we lock up teenagers who have pre-marital sex?
Should we lock up fat people for being gluttons?
It's a slippery road.
I believe that both God and Jesus are both just, loving and merciful. I may be wrong, but my guess is that there will be few to ZERO human souls cast into Hell.
Not necessarily, but denounced and not encouraged or embraced (gay pride, tv shows), absolutely.
Waiting on him
