DAD'S RAMBLINGS – What A Shame!
Romans 1:26-27
"For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaning 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 errors which was due."
Homosexuality is not new. From early times men and women have taken the natural order that God created and perverted it to satisfy their own evil lusts – even as Sodom and Gomorrah. God originally created male and female (Genesis 1:27) with genital paraphernalia designed for specific purposes. Human anatomy shows God intention for reproduction, with males having sperm and females having eggs, and the male organ to enter the woman and the woman to receive the man. God also made sex pleasurable, but that was not the primary purpose. Humans, in their degeneracy, have taken God's creative intentions and perverted them to perform acts against nature, "committing what is shameful" in order to satisfy their own sinful lusts. Jude phrased it this way: "...as Sodom and Gomorrah ... having given themselves over to sexual immorality and gone after strange flesh...." (Jude 7). Homosexuality is not a civil rights issue; it is and has always been a moral issue. God allows people to do such things, but there is a price to pay (venereal diseases and AIDS ). No matter what medical advances to have to mitigate the effects of sin, it is still costly in more ways than one. God's way is the best way.
TODAY'S THOUGHT: God allows man to violate His creative intent in nature, but there is a price to pay for sin.
Have a "natural" day. Love you.
