Judge rules Michigan marriage law unconstitutional: First homosexual ‘marriage’ takes place already in Michigan


The Destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah

In another attempt by the US Federal government to push the homosexual agenda, another federal judge ignored the votes of the people of Michigan:

Michigan has issued its first gay marriage license to a couple in Ingham County just a day after the state’s ban on same-sex marriage was struck down…

Michigan is the 18th state in the nation to allow gay marriage. At least three counties plan to issue licenses on Saturday.

Muskegon County Clerk Nancy Waters said she’s been prepared to issue licenses since last October but was waiting for an official decision from U.S. District Judge Bernard Friedman.

After the decision, Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette immediately filed an emergency stay request to prevent gay couples from marrying right away.

With no stay in place, Washtenaw County Clerk Lawrence Kestenbaum said his office will issue 60 licenses on Saturday.  http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2014/03/22/michigan-gay-marriage/6729809/

MASON, Mich. — Two women were the first gay couple to marry in Michigan on Saturday, one day after the state’s ban on gay marriage, approved by voters in a landslide in 2004, was scratched from the state constitution by a federal judge.  http://bostonherald.com/news_opinion/national/midwest/2014/03/michigans_1st_gay_marriage_license_issued

It is odd that one of the above articles says that Michigan is allowing ‘gay marriage’ as its Attorney General is still trying to stop it.  It was a federal judge who has allowed that.

Of course, this should not surprise us. Although US President Obama took an oath to protect the constitution and defend USA laws, he and his administration were opposed to defending the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA–see Obama Won’t Support Ban on Homosexual ‘Marriages’).

This shows again, that whatever agenda that various politicians have, that this trumps ‘democracy.’

The Bible warns about leaders who go the wrong direction:

12 As for My people, children are their oppressors, And women rule over them. O My people! Those who lead you cause you to err, And destroy the way of your paths.” (Isaiah 3:12)

16 For the leaders of this people cause them to err, And those who are led by them are destroyed (Isaiah 9:16).

In the USA and elsewhere, the way the supporters of the homosexual agenda talk, homosexual marriage is all supposedly about fairness, love, and equality. The reality is that this is about morality, society, disease, and protection of children. Sexual immorality has been shown to be harmful, and according to the Bible it is sinful.

Biblically, a marriage exist as a relationship between a man and woman as God intended (Matthew 19:3-6). But, many in the USA, including its President, do not really care what the Bible teaches. And this is dangerous and will lead to destruction (cf. Romans 1:18-32).

Various ones, in and out of the USA can pretend that increasing “homosexual rights” is acceptable, but the Bible teaches otherwise.

Homosexual acts are clearly prohibited in the Bible:

22 You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination. (Leviticus 18:22)

13 If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. (Leviticus 20:13)

Those who try to claim that the Bible does not clearly condemn homosexuality are intentionally misreading what it actually teaches. The Bible prohibits and condemns homosexual behavior–the Bible calls it an abomination!

Notice also the following:

9 The look on their countenance witnesses against them, And they declare their sin as Sodom; They do not hide it. Woe to their soul! For they have brought evil upon themselves. (Isaiah 3:9)

13 The fear of the Lord is to hate evil; Pride and arrogance and the evil way And the perverse mouth I hate. (Proverbs 8:13)

18 Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before a fall. (Proverbs 16:18)

49 Look, this was the iniquity of your sister Sodom: She and her daughter had pride, fullness of food, and abundance of idleness; neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy. 50 And they were haughty and committed abomination before Me; therefore I took them away as I saw fit. (Ezekiel 16:49-50)

7 as 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. (Jude 7)

6…the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them to destruction, making them an example to those who afterward would live ungodly (2 Peter 2:6)

So the Bible shows that Sodom was destroyed for many things including its pride and the committing of abominations. Homosexuality is an abomination. Sodom and Gomorrah were turned into ashes making them an example–but many leaders in the USA, Scotland, and elsewhere do not wish to consider the ramifications of what they are doing.  Some of the odd weather patterns the USA has been experiencing may be related to the growing acceptance of the homosexual agenda.

The Bible also warns against accepting and condoning practices such as homosexuality and lesbianism, which is something that the USA is doing:

18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness…

24 Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, 25 who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

26 For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. 27 Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.

28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; 29 being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, 30 backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31 undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; 32 who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them. (Romans 1:18,24-32)

The promotion of sexual immorality, including the ‘gay’ agenda, will end in destruction. Yet various leaders in the USA, including its President and various judges, are doing just it. They apparently do not take the warnings of the Bible seriously.

The USA is in decline and will some day be eliminated–as will its Anglo-Saxon allies such as Canada and New Zealand which already allow homosexual marriage, Australia (which has ‘same-sex unions’) and not only Scotland, but the rest of UK (which is supposed to allow homosexual marriage in Wales and England around now) which are moving closer to it.

Of course, it is not just the USA and the Anglo-Saxon nations that are doing this, many of the Europeans are engaged in this as well.

No one should be pushing the homosexual agenda, yet many in the West foolishly are–and this will be to their peril.
