Obama Administration pleads that the Supreme Court should overturn DOMA and California’s anti-homosexual marriage law

Destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah

In another move that is in conflict with scripture, the Obama Administration filed another pleading against the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA):

The Obama administration is asking the Supreme Court to overturn California’s ban on same-sex marriage and turn a skeptical eye on similar prohibitions across the country.The administration says unequivocally in a legal brief filed late Thursday that gay marriage should be allowed to resume in California, where it has been barred since the passage of Proposition 8 in 2008…

More immediately, the administration’s position, if adopted by the court, probably would result in gay marriage becoming legal in seven other states that, like California, give gay couples all the benefits of marriage, but don’t allow them to wed.

They are: Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Nevada, New Jersey, Oregon and Rhode Island. http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-250_162-57571952/obama-administration-urges-supreme-court-to-overturn-gay-marriage-ban/

Years ago, one of my brothers asked me if I felt that California’s Proposition 8 law would remain in effect, and I told him no, that it was likely that the courts would nullify it. Now the Obama Administration has asked the Supreme Court to do that.

Thia move by the Obama Administration is not a surprise as nearly two years ago, it came out against relying on the biblical definition of marriage (see Obama Announces He Wants to Repeal Defense of Marriage Act and Increase Debt) and Barack Obama has often promoted his unbiblical stance in many ways since (including his last State of the Union message, see The State of the Union is not good).

The Bible defends marriage and only defines it as between a man and a woman (cf. Genesis 2:24; Matthew 19:5-10). It repeatedly condemns homosexual acts.

There were other societies that have had their own issues of openly advocating sin relationships that their residents seemed to view as acceptable. Notice what happened in a couple of such towns between three thousand and four thousand years ago:

24 Then the Lord rained brimstone and fire on Sodom and Gomorrah, from the Lord out of the heavens. 25 So He overthrew those cities, all the plain, all the inhabitants of the cities, and what grew on the ground. (Genesis 19:24-25)

And why did it happen?

7 as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them in a similar manner to these, having given themselves over to sexual immorality and gone after strange flesh, are set forth as an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire. (Jude 7)

Why mention this in the 21st century? Because God turned:

6…the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them to destruction, making them an example to those who afterward would live ungodly (2 Peter 2:6,
NKJV)

National repentance is the only real long-term hope for the Anglo-peoples (and it seems to be too late for that).

Keeping the Ten Commandments reflects love. Breaking them and/or condoning those that do is evil. This should be clear to those who believe the God of the Bible. Children should be raised by God-fearing heterosexual couples–for God wants godly offspring:

4…Because the Lord has been witness Between you and the wife of your youth…Yet she is your companion
And your wife by covenant. 15 But did He not make them one, Having a remnant of the Spirit? And why one?
He seeks godly offspring. Therefore take heed to your spirit, And let none deal treacherously with the wife of his youth. (Malachi 2:14-15)

Same-sex unions are not endorsed in the Bible and were not what God intended humans to be in to raise children.

The USA is setting itself up for complete ruin. Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed as examples (Jude 7; 2 Peter 2:6). The currently militarily strong USA will not be spared (Daniel 11:39).

Watch (Mark 13, Matthew 24).
