Frequently Asked Questions
Q - There is No Gay Marriage in the Bible?
A - No, there is NO Gay Marriage in the Bible.
Some say you can prove anything from the Bible. Actually not, unless you make a parallel argument that you can prove anything from a dictionary. If we read the Bible as we read other literature--normal, historical, grammatical, author-intended meaning--we discover that it has lots to say but not necessarily what everyone wants it to say.
Just because someone wants the Bible to present a scriptural case for gay marriage doesn't mean it does. The normal reading of the Bible throughout history and around today's world concludes that the Bible calls for male-female marriage.
The plainest and simplest description of biblical marriage is at the beginning of the Bible: "a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh" (Genesis 2:24).
True, the Bible has multiple stories of polygamous marriages and broken marriages but that doesn't mean that the starting definition is abandoned. There is a difference between what the Bible prescribes and what it describes. The Ten Commandments uplift a high moral and ethical code even though the Bible reports behavior far from what the Ten Commandments prescribe.
When Jesus talked about marriage and quoted from Genesis 2:24 it is hard to conclude that he was talking about anything other than one man and one woman:
Matthew 19:4-6.
And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, And said, For this cause shall a man leave father
and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let
not man put asunder.
God is very much against the gay lifestyle in fact that's the main sin that always caused God to send his wrath on people in the past and he will do the same thing again.
Remember God never changes!
God bless you all.
