Pulpit Freedom Sunday is Near
One consequence of the homosexual political agenda is the loss of religious liberty and freedom. I am still amazed that almost no one commented on the First Lady’s nationally televised convention speech on September 4th, 2012 in which she clearly said that it was the objective of the President to see that homosexuals “can be who they are and boldly stand at the altar with whom they love.”
(Only churches have altars for weddings. If these people will force Christian colleges and even a Bible publishing company to fund abortion, why would they respect the beliefs of churches in regard to same-sex marriage? There’s a great line in the western Open Range in which Robert Duvall tells Kevin Costner, “Most times, if you listen to a man, he will tell you his bad intentions.”)
Churches are in the cross-hairs of the activists seeking to change America and move her away from her foundations. One of those changes may come in a month when the U.S. Supreme Court hands down its rulings on same-sex marriage and the ability of voters and elected officials to protect it.
That ruling will be one of the biggest news events of the year. Every citizen seated in a church pew the following Sunday will have heard exactly what the media wants them to hear about this issue.
Before the courts and pop culture have an opportunity to promote their agenda, maybe people should hear what God actually says about marriage. This is the intent of the Alliance Defending Freedom’s Pulpit Freedom Sunday 2013. They are asking pastors all across America to dedicate Sunday June 9th to educating their congregations on the Biblical meaning and purpose of marriage. This is particularly important in Indiana where Hoosier voters may be allowed to decide on the importance of marriage and the necessity of it being a gendered institution including a husband and a wife.
Sunday, June 9th is a good opportunity for a marriage sermon as it will come about two weeks before the U.S. Supreme Court ruling and a liberal media interpretation that will dominate the news coverage.
