Gay Weddings
Joel:
Romans 12:18-If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.
I think Lot must have been trying to live at peace until God intervened in judgment.
2nd Peter 2:7- And he delivered just Lot, vexed with the conversation of the wicked:
Seems like the issue of gay rights is being forced on those that aren't sympathetic with their cause these days.
Jesus said "Go and sin no more" on a couple occasions, don't see where he would condone man with man, or women with women debauchery.
Ray said at least once in answering an email that he didn't like answering hypothetical questions. (defend ourselves)

You gentlemen have not been the mother of the bride - I have.
The work that it takes to put on a wedding, the expense, where the ceremony is held - is all about the Guests ! They are not bystanders like some passers by walking through the park. It is a ceremony put on for the guests- unless the couple go off by alone . If you are there you are a participant .
Jesus made it clear what marriage was and by Who's hand it was instituted . That's all we really need to know.
I am not upbraiding nonbelievers - I'm upbraiding you.

Good answer Joel. :D Its not about the gay man or his wedding, its about you...
1Pe 4:17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: Their time of judgement will come and they will learn righteousness!
Alex your qoute; So now this discussion has opened my eyes to why I felt as I did and why its good to seek the perspectives of those like minded. It helps me "try the spirits," End of qoute.
Alex is this how we try the spirits, by talking about not going or going to a gay wedding that hasn't happened yet??
All the wonderful truths Lray taught and we talk about this? >:(

Hi Micheal,
Yes this is how I try the spirits. I search scripture first. Scripture has said what it has said. If I feel like I need further input and more to search out my own thoughts then what better way then amongst those who are of like mind and that one body? I am by no means perfect, a great sinner in fact, but by the grace and mercy of God I strive forward nonetheless.
Ephesians 4:13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
1 Corinthians 1:10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.
I'm trying to avoid being wise in my own conceits. I trying to understand this through the spirit of God and not of man's.
God brought this issue onto my mind and heart and caused me to search it out. Here I am. Does this offend you?
It is hypothetical for me now but perhaps one day it won't be and I'd like to know if that time comes that I am grounded and rooted in the truth not to be shaken by the way's of this world.
If the moderators feel this thread has gotten out of line or served its purpose and there is no benefit in the Body of Christ searching this matter out further then I am fine with them ending the discussion. All in accordance with God's plan.
God be with you,
Alex
Ricky:
Neo got a great answer, so lets go up one, did you get married by God or by man? in a church where Satan sits on the throne, by a pastor of lies. Does God Honor Pagan marriages? Where does it say that in the book? Everything that is done by man in life is against God. Ricky
