Christians should follow God’s rules

gay marriages. Society has adopted a very relaxed attitude where homosexuality is involved. Society has decided that it is no one’s place to judge whatever lifestyle you choose. People must be open-minded and non-judgmental. People have become so relaxed on the topic of homosexuality that states are allowing gays to be married. States that legalize gay marriages are being applauded, as if what they’re doing is right and good.

Even some religious people believe gay marriage is fine. But the Bible speaks against it repeatedly. Genesis 19 talks about how God is planning to destroying Sodom and Gomorrah because they had sinned against him. They were a town full of homosexuals and God didn’t support them because God said homosexuality is a sin. Deuteronomy 22:5 says, “A woman must not wear men’s clothing, nor a man wear women’s clothing, for the Lord your God detests anyone who does this.” This verse talks about how God made women and men differently. He speaks about how there are clear distinctions and they should not be mixed. Men should not be with men and women should not be with women. Judges 19:22 talks about wicked men who wanted to molest a visitor in someone else’s house. If God called the men wicked for their homosexuality, then why do people think that he accepts homosexuality?

People, especially Christians, should not accept homosexuality as a way of life. We get our rules for living from God, and he makes it clear that homosexuality is wrong.
