Pride

In the Name of Love???

There are many synonyms listed for the word pride. They include; arrogance, conceit, smugness, self-importance, egotism, vanity, and superiority. Pride is considered one of the seven deadly sins. God abhors a haughty and prideful soul. Interesting that the LGTBQI+ community picked pride as the moniker for their movement. It has become increasingly obvious that “pride” was chosen as an intentional affront to God. For what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them.  For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood from His workmanship, so that men are without excuse.” Romans 1:19-20. God is slow to anger, but it would seem foolhardy to taunt the creator of the universe. The rampant redefinition of morality that promotes all manner of sexual deviancy is not very likely pleasing to Him.

The Supreme Court legalized same-sex marriage in 2015, normalizing same-sex relationships for consenting adults in civil society. In less than a decade the alternate lifestyle movement has used that “foot in the door” to engage in behavior so perverse that it would make the residents of Sodom and Gomorrah blush. It was never enough for society to accept same-sex marriage. The intent was always to find a way to tear down established mores and substitute a new lawlessness that rejects God and prioritizes worship of individual identity and desires. What began as gay and lesbian, transforms into LGTBQI+ and whatever the next sexual deviancy becomes. In order to make the LGTBQI+ community feel a part of society, children must be targeted and groomed with curricula that promotes their chosen lifestyle. Children, who cannot vote, drive or consent to getting a tattoo, are now guided by school administration to question the gender they were born with. Laws are enacted to coerce children to experiment with new pronouns and to begin puberty-blocking drugs and hormones, while school officials are prohibited from informing the parents of these life-altering and often irreversible procedures.

The failure to recognize and confront the evil that has permeated our culture on so many levels places civilized society in jeopardy. Those that acquiesce to behavior that needs to be justified with forced legislation and edicts defies common logic. The evil one uses all manners of deceptions to entice people to accept and promote what is evil as good, using a misdirected sense of tolerance and acceptance in order to justify behavior that simply cannot be justified. Intentional disregard of God’s word and the deliberate twisting of His word to justify actions expressly forbidden by God reveals the innate godlessness and wickedness of the purveyors of this decadent movement. There will come a reckoning to those who suppress the truth. For although they knew God, they neither glorified Him as God nor gave thanks to Him, but they became futile in their thinking and darkened in their foolish hearts.” Romans 1:21

What is evil is plain to those who have eyes that see, ears that hear, and a mind that can comprehend. God has written upon everyone’s heart a clear understanding of the difference between good and evil. One cannot truly rationalize lies masquerading as truth and fantasy pretending to be reality. The father of lies continues to prevail upon those that fail to differentiate between the two. They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator” Romans 1:25. Those who fail to stand up to evil will be held to account. But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.” Matthew 18:6. Those of you that choose to engage in alternate lifestyles are free to do so. If you can stand at the judgment seat and convince God that your choice is a godly one, then more power to you. One can fantasize and believe anything is truly right and salutary, but do not compel others to accept it as their reality, because it is far from the truth!
