THE IMPLICATION OF THE LEGALISATION OF SAME SEX ON A SOCIETY

THE IMPLICATION OF THE LEGALISATION OF SAME SEX ON A SOCIETY
The holy scriptures is very clear on God's position on this issue. Wether we argue against it or not the fact still remians that we are already faced with the implications of spitting on God's face with a presidential fiat.
This is an excerpt of my contribution to the growing debate on this issue on Yahoo forum on President Barack Obama's comment on this issue. Every gay sholud be given their constitutional right just as drug dealers and rapist, but when it comes to the legitimization of that which against the law of conscience , that's another kettle of fish with a putrid smell.   
This scripture tells us what the implications are when we piblicly spit on God's face .
Rom 1:26-28
26 Worse followed. Refusing to know God, they soon didn't know how to be human either — women didn't know how to be women, men didn't know how to be men.
27 Sexually confused, they abused and defiled one another, women with women, men with men — all lust, no love. And then they paid for it, oh, how they paid for it — emptied of God and love, godless and loveless wretches.
28 Since they didn't bother to acknowledge God, God quit bothering them and let them run loose.
THE IMPLICATIONS INCLUDE:
Ro 1:29-31
And then all hell broke loose: rampant evil, grabbing and grasping, vicious backstabbing. They made life hell on earth with their envy, wanton killing, bickering, and cheating. Look at them: mean-spirited, venomous,
30 fork-tongued God-bashers. Bullies, swaggerers, insufferable windbags! They keep inventing new ways of wrecking lives. They ditch their parents when they get in the way.
31 Stupid, slimy, cruel, cold-blooded.
God have mercy on America and save the children from serial killers and from the gates of hell. 

It has been proven time without number that when a society turns it's back against the natural law of consciense it pays for it through it's social infractructure . no matter how modern man is the human conscience which is the citadel of truth can only be silenced but not killed. when legalism is based on popularity and convenience society will soon loose the moral fabric to administer justice because by then right is now wrong and wrong is now right. the mass killing of children now becomes an acceptable norm as it is now seen as an expression of the killers' fundamental rights for freedom of expression..
the impact on the American economy is not far fetched as most developing nations are tilting to china as a substitute where business is done with a fair sense of moralty. African and middle eastern countries are investing in chinese technology with africans learning to speak chinese all in a bid of maintaining culture and custom that has susutained the balance in humanity- the natural marriage institution consisting of the man and woman.
For those who are not yet clear on God's position on this issue :Isa 5:20-25
20 Doom to you who call evil good and good evil, Who put darkness in place of light and light in place of darkness, Who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!
21 Doom to you who think you're so smart, who hold such a high opinion of yourselves!
22 All you're good at is drinking — champion boozers who collect trophies from drinking bouts
23 And then line your pockets with bribes from the guilty while you violate the rights of the innocent.
24 But they won't get by with it. As fire eats stubble and dry grass goes up in smoke, Their souls will atrophy, their achievements crumble into dust, Because they said no to the revelation of God-of-the-Angel-Armies, Would have nothing to do with The Holy of Israel.
25 That's why God flamed out in anger against his people, reached out and knocked them down. The mountains trembled as their dead bodies piled up in the streets. But even after that, he was still angry, his fist still raised, ready to hit them again.
God have mercy on America.

TIPS ON FASTING AND PRAYERS 1



Why You Should Fast  

 Mk 9:29
 He replied, "This kind can come out only by prayer.
NIV
 there are situations and life circumstance that can only be overcome through a faith "experience" born out of fasting, in the above mentioned case a boy was healed from a demon influenced sickness.

If you do not already know of the power and importance of fasting, here are some very important facts:
  • Fasting was an expected discipline in both the Old and New Testament eras. For example, Moses fasted at least two recorded forty-day periods. Jesus fasted 40 days and reminded His followers to fast, "when you fast," not if you fast.
  • Fasting and prayer can restore the loss of the "first love" for your Lord and result in a more intimate relationship with Christ.
  • Fasting is a biblical way to truly humble yourself in the sight of God (Psalm 35:13; Ezra 8:21). King David said, "I humble myself through fasting."
  • Fasting enables the Holy Spirit to reveal your true spiritual condition, resulting in brokenness, repentance, and a transformed life.
  • The Holy Spirit will quicken the Word of God in your heart and His truth will become more meaningful to you!
  • Fasting can transform your prayer life into a richer and more personal experience.
  • Fasting can result in a dynamic personal revival in your own life-and make you a channel of revival to others.
  • Fasting and prayer are the only disciplines that fulfill the requirements of II Chronicles 7:14:
"If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land."
If you fast, you will find yourself being humbled as I did. You will discover more time to pray and seek God's face. And as He leads you to recognize and repent of unconfessed sin, you will experience special blessings from God.





Fasting is a sacred time in which Christians abstain from food, or other pleasures, and take the time to focus on God. If you are interested in focusing your life around God, while feeding the poor, deepening your faith .


Before the Fast
  1. 1
Determine the reasons of your choice to fast. This may be repentance of sin, deepening your personal relationship with Him, asking for His strength or wisdom, etc.

  1. 2
Hold the right motives. Note that fasting as a Christian means to humble thyself before Him. It is a way to Glorify our Lord. Keep these aspects in mind while you fast. Try to hold off any other reasons for fasting such as weight loss, etc. Center it around Jesus.
  1. 3
Pray before your fast. Pray, confessing every one of your sins, and inviting the Holy Spirit to lead your life. Let Jesus know you wish to know Him personally. Acknowledge that He has died on the cross for our sins and rose 3 days later, freeing us from condemnation, and giving us His free gift of eternal life. Ask forgiveness from everyone you have hurt; ask forgiveness from God. Forgive those who have hurt you.
  1. 4
Meditate on the Gospel, and on the Holy traits of our Lord. These may include the ability to forgive, His strength or wisdom, His peace, the capacity to love unconditionally, etc. Praise Him for these attributes! Surrender your life and thank Him for all He has done for you!
  1. 5
Determine the length of your fasting experience, whether this is for 1 meal, 1 day, 3 days or a week (Jesus and Moses fasted for a period of 40 days, but that is no sign that anyone else might do that). You may wish to try a shorter fast, and start slowly at first, if you have not previously fasted.
  1. 6
Note the type of fast you are being called to. You may feel that Holy Spirit calls you to a specific type of fast. A partial fast may mean giving up only certain types of foods. Juice fasts remove the pleasure of chewing any type of solid food, yet fruit and vegetable juices are permitted.
  1. 7
Drink enough water to support life, since it is not a food, observing this Absolute Caution: In an absolute fast one abstains from solid and liquid "foods" -- for example, fruit juices are foods -- but, water is essential for life, as one may go into a foggy mental state, then coma and die after a mere 4 or 5 days of dehydration.
During the Fast
  1. 1
Hold morning worship. Worship Him and praise Him for His attributes. Read God’s Word, and meditate that God will lend you His Wisdom, so that you input His Word into your life, and gain a full understanding of it. Pray for God’s Will to be done, and for the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Ask God to lead you in spreading His Glory into the world we live in.
  1. 2
Go for a prayer walk. Walk outside, hand in hand with nature, while noticing God’s wondrous creation. Thank Him for everything He has created as you walk. Ask Him to give thee a spirit of thanksgiving and appreciation.
  1. 3
Pray for the welfare of others. Pray that church leaders will preach His Word as God intended, that your friends and family members will grow closer to Him or accept Him into their lives; pray for government leaders to come to Him and ask Him for His Will.
