Gay Rights [1995] ZAConAsmRes 1075 (14 March 1995)

 

14TH MARCH 1995



GAY RIGHTS


God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah because of the homosexuality practised there, so how on earth can we condone it (Genesis 1 9).

There are many verses in the Bible which strongly oppose homosexuality e.9 1 Cor 6:9,10; 1 Timothy 1;9,10, Romans 1:26-27; 2 Samuel 1:26, Leviticus 18:22, Leviticus 20:13. God ordained men and women to marry - not men and men or women and women - Hebrew 13:4 : 1 Corinthians 7:2, Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:4-6.

As a Christian, I strongly object to gay rights being included in our new constitution - God loves the gays, but, He definitely doesn't love their lifestyle which is SIN and an abomination in His eyes.

I pray that you will allow God to guide you to make the correct recommendations regarding the constitution.
