Two States Approve Same-Sex Marriage, Two Approved Limited Marijuana Use
The Destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah
An article about last night’s election had the following:
November 7, 2012…
Obama told ecstatic supporters in the cavernous McCormick Place Lakeside Center in Chicago…
“We are and forever will be the United States of America.”
The presidential vote capped a night of gains for the once beaten-down American left. Democrats Tammy Baldwin in Wisconsin and Elizabeth Warren in Massachusetts won Senate races, making Baldwin the nation’s first openly gay senator. Maryland and Maine became the first states to legalize same-sex marriage by popular vote, and Minnesota rejected a constitutional ban on same-sex marriage. Colorado and Washington passed laws legalizing some marijuana use. http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/decision2012/rejuvenated-obama-reelected-as-president-after-bruising-campaign/2012/11/07/9443cfac-28d6-11e2-b4e0-346287b7e56c_story_2.html
Making something “legal” is not the same as making something right or good for one’s spiritual or physical health. All form of sexual immorality are wrong even (fornication, adultery, prostitution, etc. ) though many are legal–and according to the Bible, they are sins against it:
18 Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. (1 Corinthians 6:18)
26 For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. 27 Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due. 28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; 29 being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, 30 backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31 undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; 32 who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them. (Romans 1:26-32)
In all due respect to Barack Obama, the United States of America will not continue forever. Despite its military strength it will be taken over and its lands divided (Daniel 11:39).
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). The United States will not last forever.
For those who do not accept the ideas of biblical morality will have anything to do with the end of the USA, perhaps the following (which CBS reported yesterday) will give you additional pause to realize that the USA cannot continue down the path it has chosen:
Treasury Quietly Warns: ‘Expect Debt Limit to Be Reached Near End of 2012’The U.S. Treasury quietly warned at the end of a statement issued last Wednesday that it expects the federal government to hit its legal debt limit before the end of this year–which means before the new Congress is seated–and that “extraordinary measures” will be needed before then to keep the government fully funded into the early part of 2013. http://cnsnews.com/news/article/treasury-quietly-warns-expect-debt-limit-be-reached-near-end-2012
The fact is that the USA cannot continue to increase its debts forever. Creditors will eventually rise up (cf. Habakkuk 2). And while people do not always equate immorality with debt, the USA went from being the world’s leading creditor nation to biggest debtor nation basically since it “legalize” abortion. Other legalizations of biblically immoral behavior will tend to hasten its downfall and sometimes accelerate its rates of debt.
And although the political parties in the USA will have to do something in the next couple of months about some debt-related matters, do not be fooled into believing that they will truly solve the problems. Disasters will befall the USA.

Abortion, the Bible, and a Woman’s Right to Choose Do you know what the Bible teaches on this? Has the Roman Catholic Church allowed abortions? What about the real Church of God?
Anglo – America in Prophecy & the Lost Tribes of Israel Are the Americans, Canadians, English, Scottish, Welsh, Australians, Anglo (non-Dutch) Southern Africans, and New Zealanders descendants of Joseph? Where are the lost ten-tribes of Israel? Who are the lost tribes of Israel? What will happen to Jerusalem and the Jews in Israel? Will God punish the U.S.A., Canada, United Kingdom, and other Anglo nations? Why might God allow them to be punished first?
