WHAT GOD SAYS ABOUT THE DEBATE OF GAYSM
The debate about gays/homosexuality and their rights have been raging. Presidents, legislators, judges and human rights groups have taken the lead. But what is the Almighty God saying about all these? Shouldn't we be concerned above all of what He says and is saying above all else? including above what Barrack Obama thinks?
This is 6 points right from God's heart about this issue:
1. God's eternal identity of humanity is in Male and Female distinct and unique existence.
Gen 1:27
So God created mankind in his own image,
in the image of God he created them;
male and female he created them.
So God created mankind in his own image,
in the image of God he created them;
male and female he created them.
2. In this beautiful design of mankind as male and female, humanity is the delight of God Almighty.
proverbs 8:30-31
Then I was constantly[e] at his side.
I was filled with delight day after day,
rejoicing always in his presence,
rejoicing in his whole world
and delighting in mankind.
I was filled with delight day after day,
rejoicing always in his presence,
rejoicing in his whole world
and delighting in mankind.
3. The making of man as male and female is for two eternal unchanging reasons: 1. To display God's glory and wisdom 2. For the beauty of companionship and relationship between a male and a female.
Isaiah 43:7
everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made.”
everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made.”
Genesis 2:18
The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”
The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”
4. The fall of humanity into sin through our first parents corrupted the human heart and from that point we struggle to rise above our own rebellion to God's original beautiful plan in all of lives' spheres.
Gen 3:6-7
6 When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.

Romans 5:12
Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all people, because all sinned
Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all people, because all sinned
5. Just as sin and death flows to the physical descendants of Adam, Life and transformation flows to the spiritual children of God Almighty through Christ Jesus.
Roman 5:18-19
18 Consequently, just as one trespass resulted in condemnation for all people, so also one righteous act resulted in justification and life for all people. 19 For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous.

6. Just like other sinful desires that plagues as humans, homesexual desires shouldn't be glorified and held into but should be repented of and through faith in Christ Jesus, the heart shall be renewed and the homosexual desires shall no longer control you.
Mark 7:20-23
He went on: “What comes out of a person is what defiles them. For it is from within, out of a person’s heart, that evil thoughts come—sexual immorality, theft, murder, 22 adultery, greed, malice, deceit, lewdness, envy, slander, arrogance and folly. All these evils come from inside and defile a person.”

1 Corinthians 6:9-10
Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
