The gay marriage has sparked tumultuous debates in many parliaments in Europe. Already weaved into the legal fabric in many countries, we believe it is not the right direction God wanted us to follow. But the majority of our political leaders and legislators are keen at pleasing the people. They don’t have much interest in what is biblical, anyway. The “gay things” will then become a part of our social norms, not to mention the reinvention of our vocabularies, bio-data forms, the restrooms, etc.
Why not involve God in our everyday life? Yes, billions of people today don’t acknowledge God, (I mean, the God of the apostle Paul and the Holy Scriptures!) in their daily routine until disease or a calamity hits them. We separate our borrowed lives from our Father God and Creator. That’s our genetic badge! Taught the Bible that “even though they knew God, they did not honor Him as God or give thanks.” (Rom. 1:21) We don’t call in God, the Father of Christ, in our lives. But, why?
Yes, atheism crumbles, as it is not part of human design. It is like putting a non-genuine part in your car’s engine. A long time ago, God said that an atheist is a fool or someone engaged in self-deception. In Psalm 14:1, David said that the “fool hath said in his heart, There is no God.” The atheist’s belief starts with his “conversation with his heart” without the open-mindedness to consider the mysteries of the world around him. Observe the following declaration of one atheist from the Web:
Have you noticed that as we advance in technology, we deteriorate in moral values so equally fast? While Eve covered herself, many in today’s generation wanted to show off their body? Nude societies are making headlines in Australia and other countries. And people love them for being such blatantly depraved! God said that the man, Legion, was undressed, and had 2,000 demons! (cf. Mark 5:15) Mary Magdalene had seven demons. (Mark 16:9) Indeed, the demons are influencing our culture, and worse, our majority support and enjoy them! The apostle Paul wrote over 2000 years ago that “although they know the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, they not only do the same, but also give hearty approval to those who practice them.” Corrupt politicians are voted in and the principled ones voted out. The people’s choice to release Barabbas, the robber, and crucify Jesus stays in the human heart until now to dignify what is crooked and wrong. How about calling a harlot as a “pornstar?” What talent does she possess to merit the adjective of a “star” or famous? Why not shameful, wicked, falling star—or other terms more convicting! The demons, the powers of darkness, must have twisted our moral sense and shaped out what is ugly and immoral into our culture.
