2 Peter 2:2
And many will follow their immoral ways and lascivious doings; because of them the true Way will be maligned and defamed.

Prop. 8 opponents show 'intolerance', 'hypocrisy'
Charlie Butts - OneNewsNow - 11/19/2008
The war against passage of Proposition 8, the constitutional amendment that California voters approved to protect traditional marriage, continues.
PJI Homosexual activists have taken the case back to the courts to try to overturn the vote. Filing a brief supporting homosexual marriage are the California Council of Churches and the Episcopal bishops of Northern California and Los Angeles. Brad Dacus of Pacific Justice Institute (PJI) says the people who support same-sex marriage believe if voters are permitted to take away rights from a group based on sexual orientation, the same could happen to religious groups.
"These arguments are totally without merit in that homosexual marriage is not a true fundamental right, and that's the reason why voters had to go to the polls and amend the constitution of California to once again protect that which is truly a fundamental right," he explains.
Dacus says he understands where the organizations are coming from, and says it is not the Bible. "These groups that just filed the brief are the ones that are the most adamantly against Christians who believe in the Bible, believe in what the Bible teaches," he adds. "Their intolerance is unmistakable, and their hypocrisy is very evident in what they've filed."
1 Corinthians 6:9-10
Do you not know that the unrighteous and the wrongdoers will not inherit or have any share in the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived (misled): neither the impure and immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor those who participate in homosexuality,
Nor cheats (swindlers and thieves), nor greedy graspers, nor drunkards, nor foulmouthed revilers and slanderers, nor extortioners and robbers will inherit or have any share in the kingdom of God.
COMMENTARY. JUST LIKE SODOM AND GOMORRAH.
The opponents against all the Amendments in favor of protecting Marriage between a MAN and a WOMAN and the ones in California who refuse to allow the American system be the American system seem to imitate the same behavior of what JESUS taught about Sodom and Gomorrah and the days of Noah. In the Bible it clarifies as to those same perverted behaviors wanting to have intercourse with the angels who seem to be in human form as to how these sickening behaviors these sinners so grotesquely became in their sin that they even engage into something so profain in the presence of the objects of GOD holiness that it is a no wonder that GOD reign the judgment with fire and brimstone on that city because of their protests against those that represented righteousness in Lot's household. Lot pleaded with them that they did not want to basically mess with these Moral men but they ignored the TRUTH and they tried to storm through Lot's house in spite of the warnings. And the rest of the story tells how they were blinded so terribly but continued to pursue in the midst of their wickedness and then the judgments came with Lot and His family barey escaping.
And today God is still showing common grace to these folks who are lost and dead in bondage to their perversions of sin while they still continue to violate what the majority of America voted for to keep morality the center of marriage that is naturally between the scientific fact as well as the Biblical fact that marriage is only between a MAN and a WOMAN. The People of America have spoken fairly and these people continue to show their tyrannicide showing that EQUALITY has nothing to do with their movement or equal rights. It shows their HATRED for the True GOD who made them either male or female but they love their sin more than HIM. So they continue to do what their sinful nature demands. To Blaspheme GOD with all their hearts as they continue to go against HIS statutes and commandments. AS I keep reporting and finding these pessimistic news reports on such vain issues as these, I am honored that GOD continues to show myself how brokenhearted HE is over those HE molded HIMSELF with HIS own hands are against HIM. The ONE who animated them. The ONE who created in HIS image. The ONE who put RIGHT and WRONG in them that THEY are without EXCUSE and when they stand before HIM, HE must punish them for their agency of Choosing temporary sin over LIFE eternal. It is so sad that they choose perversion over life eternal.
They must trample on the SON OF GOD to have a RIGHT to go to HELL when they know better.
1 Corinthians 5:9-11 (Amplified Bible)
9I wrote you in my [previous] letter not to associate [closely and habitually] with unchaste (impure) people--
10Not [meaning of course that you must] altogether shun the immoral people of this world, or the greedy graspers and cheats and thieves or idolaters, since otherwise you would need to get out of the world and human society altogether!
11But now I write to you not to associate with anyone who bears the name of [Christian] brother if he is known to be guilty of immorality or greed, or is an idolater [whose soul is devoted to any object that usurps the place of God], or is a person with a foul tongue [railing, abusing, reviling, slandering], or is a drunkard or a swindler or a robber. [No] you must not so much as eat with such a person.
Liberal churches join effort to overturn Prop. 8

SAN FRANCISCO - The state attorney general and sponsors of the ballot initiative that banned same-sex marriage in California urged its Supreme Court to hear a series of lawsuits seeking to overturn the ban, saying the matter is too urgent to be unsettled.
"The petitions raise issues of statewide importance, implicating not only California's marriage laws but also the initiative process and the Constitution itself," Attorney General Jerry Brown argued in his filing.
"This court can provide certainty and finality in this matter," he said.
Proposition 8, which passed with 52 percent of the vote earlier this month, overturned the high court's May decision legalizing homosexual marriage in California. The easure inserts language into the constitution limiting marriage to one man and one woman.
Gay and civil rights groups, the city of San Francisco and other plaintiffs have asked the court to void the measure on the grounds that voters did not have the authority to make, what they say, is a fundamental constitutional change.
The California Council of Churches and the Episcopal bishops of Northern California and Los Angeles were among those asking the high court to invalidate Proposition 8. They argue that if voters are permitted to take away rights from a group based on sexual orientation, the same could happen to religious minorities.
There is no deadline for the justices to decide whether they'll take the cases.
The litigation has made unwitting allies of supporters of the same-sex marriage ban and the attorney general, who voted against the proposition. Over the summer, anti-gay marriage groups sued Brown after his office changed the measure's wording to reflect that it would take away a right that same-sex couples then had.
Brown has since said that in his role as California's top public lawyer, he will fight to uphold Proposition 8 as an expression of public sentiment on same-sex marriage. The preliminary documents he filed Monday did not address that issue.
Andrew Pugno, a lawyer for the Yes on 8 campaign, said the measure's supporters are so confident the Supreme Court would uphold the initiative they want the court to take the cases and resolve the question quickly.
"There is no question Proposition 8 is exactly the type of amendment the framers of the Constitution envisioned for the people to be able to enact," Pugno said.
The Protect Marriage coalition is less confident about Brown's sincere interest in defending the gay marriage ban in court, according to Pugno. That's why the coalition asked the court for permission to intervene in the cases Monday.
"Everyone knows the AG opposed Proposition 8, did everything he could to undermine it and it still passed anyway," he said. "There is little hope he would make much effort at all to defend Prop. 8."
Both the attorney general and Protect Marriage asked the court to reject a request from gay marriage supporters for a stay that would allow same-sex couples to resume marrying in California until the broader legal issues are addressed.
LAST Word.
When Will those who Claim they are Christian's Repent and face the Reality of the Holy Scriptures and come back to obedience and reverence of GOD and what HE set forth a FACT? HOW CAN ANYONE WHO SAYS THEY ARE A BELIEVER BLASPHEME GOD IN THE SAME BREATH AND SIDE WITH THOSE WHO OPPOSE THE TRUTH ABOUT MALE AND FEMALE UNION AS ONE FLESH ALONE WHICH IS ALSO NATURAL LAW? MEANS THEY ARE NOT OF GOD PERIOD. MAY WE CONTINE TO PRAY FOR HE LOST, BRETHREN.
