Why I think gay marriage may turn out good for the USA

Let’s face it, the USA is past due for God’s judgment.

In making this statement you are denying the perfect attributes of God including His justice.

Ah, no I am not. I am looking at how he interacted in the past and how he will do so in the future.

Ummm…the USA is far better than most countries in the world…gay marriage is wrong but think about the rest of the planet and the horrible things that happen. Not only do we not have a war going on or internal strife or as extreme poverty as other places, but even among first world countries our laws about gay “marriage” are as a whole relatively good. Over half of the USA has banned gay “marriage”, and even if all the court rulings for various states are upheld 2/5 of the country still has gay marriage banned.

Recently, there was a news story about abortions for sex selection. Even China, does not allow that on the first born there. In fact, people come to the US from China for such abortions. Many countries do not have abortion in the last few months in the womb, and yet we do. How can anyone with a straight face say that we are “relatively good” concerning abortion? As for gay laws, Muslim nations put gay people to death ---- If you are saying, “realatively good” concerning that I agree, but what about other nations where the whole country has gay marriage?

Absolutely not, I believe it was Billy Grahm who said if God does not destroy the US, he would have to apologize to Sodom and Gomorrah.

I tend to agree with this statement, the US IS long overdue.

Human understanding could make that statement but we do not have the infinite knowledge of God. Who are we to suggest that God is falling down on the job? Don’t you think the lack of morals in this country grieves His heart much more than our own? Could we possibly be graceful enough to give God the credit that things will happen according to His Divine will and not when we think they should. All of His attributes are perfect and prophecy will be fulfilled in His timing, not our own. Maybe we should all re-read the Lord’s response to Job when He said “Where were you when I founded the earth? Tell me if you have understanding.” Or how about “Have you ever in your lifetime commanded the morning and shown the dawn its place…or do you know the ordinances of the heavens; can you put into effect their plan on the earth?” And this is my favorite in chapter 40: “Will we have arguing with the Almighty by the critic?”

We were talking about gay “marriage”, not abortion…
