The 5 – 4 decision of the Supreme Court of the United States
(SCOTUS) to make all 50 states of the union endorse, encourage and promote
unnatural sex by redefining marriage to include same-sex couples is reason for great
concern.
First off SCOTUS, to my knowledge, never actually provided a
definition of the thousands of years old Biblical institution of marriage that
the States are supposed to comply with. And secondly, how on earth did SCOTUS
come up with its decision to bring chaos into the American household?
To me it is all quite straightforward and no mystery
whatsoever: It is on account of a liberal view of the Constitution and the Holy
Scriptures upon which the Constitution is based.
A “wax-nose” view of Scripture is held by Theological
liberals whereby, very simply and very briefly, the Bible is viewed as a record
of humanity’s search for God rather than God’s revelation to humanity. With
such a view the Bible can be twisted this way and that in order to make it say whatever
you want it to say.
The refrain is that those people back then do not know what
we know today and therefore wrote a lot of things out of ignorance. In other
words, they got things wrong! Apply this to the American Constitution and you
can see something of where the five of the nine SCOTUS members are coming from.
An example of this erroneous way of thinking would be that were James Madison et al to construct the Constitution
today they would have most certainly intended that same-sex couples not be excluded from marriage! In other
words, (like the Bible as viewed by Liberal Theologians), the Constitution can
be twisted (like a wax-nose) to point in whatever direction most suits the political
views of the liberal judges! Thus politics
not truth that drives these five judges, (unlike the Christian who believes
that God’s Law upon which human law is derived is absolute, truth to the
liberal is merely relative, which is to say that these judges are Post
Modernists and as such, unlike those who hold the Christian worldview, have a worldview of
uncertainties.)
Why should I, as a resident of Australia (not America), care
what happens in America? Well, the United States of America is a great
experiment, a great Christian
experiment! If America goes under the whole of the West goes down with her because
America as a world power is what protects and maintains the Western freedoms we
all enjoy. America is our big brother defending the rest of us against bullies
such as ISIS and the utopian follies of Socialism etc. But alas! There are five
liberal judges wanting the whole of the Union to destabilize the very bedrock
upon which society, including all of Western society, rests, i.e., Biblical marriage
which is between one man and one woman for life!
In light of recent events (such as the vilification of bakers
for their refusal to go against their consciences and bake cakes that openly promote
a gay lifestyle) as a Christian minister who is a marriage celebrant I am getting
a little nervous, foreseeing a time when I will be hated and thrown in prison
for my refusal to marry same-sex couples an account of my holding the thousands
of years old and Biblical definition of marriage.
Please do not ask me to concur with those five liberal judges
who endorse and promote sodomy and now would have every one of the fifty States
of America submit to their will and do likewise! This is not freedom. This is
not the America of the Founding Fathers! This is tyranny!
