California Court Overturns Gay Marriage Ban

California's Supreme Court overruled against the freely elected ban on gay marriage (although rather than calling it a gay marriage ban, the law would better be defined as enshrining God's design for marriage), effectively halting the democratic process there. As the far left continues their attack on everything holy, the court ruled in a lawsuit 4-3 to overturn the law banning gay marriage. A law voted on by the people of California.

"It's about human dignity. It's about human rights. It's about time in California," San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom, pumping his fist in the air, told a roaring crowd at City Hall. "As California goes, so goes the rest of the nation. It's inevitable. This door's wide open now. It's going to happen, whether you like it or not."

No, it's about human rebellion. It's about human wrongs. And, as the mayor stated, it usually starts, in this country anyway, in California, with someone pumping his fist at God, while the lost roar their approval. And the door is wide open, just as the wide gate in Matthew 7:13 is open that leads to destruction, whether we like it or not.

To be honest though, if Christians were doing what Jesus commanded them to in Matthew 28:19,20 the courts might not be an issue. If God's Word was preached fully & people were instructed to "Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins will be wiped out,"(Acts 3:19) instead of, "Let me show you how to have your purpose-driven best life now." perhaps this country could avoid the path of destruction it is going down.

"For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh." (Genesis 2:24)

"If the foundations are being destroyed, what can the righteous do?" (Psalm 11:3)
