Unredeemed man has a tendancy to be destructive, and if left to himself, with no sanctions or accountability would destroy everything, including himself. Nature has shown us, and experience has taught us, that we have quickly developed enormous expertise in gratuitous destruction but have learned ever so slowly how to build and be constructive. We all know that to build a sixty-storied skyscraper will take many months or years to build, even with modern means of quick construction, but it can be destroyed in seconds. We only have to cast our minds back to the terrorist destruction of the twin towers of the World Trade Center complex in New York City for this truth to sink home with chilling clarity. Lest we forget the 110-story twin towers …show more content…

Normal, moral behaviour is not something beyond the realm of ordinary folk, and we should expect this kind of right behaviour everywhere on earth. The LGBT agenda, with its host of clueless imbeciles, opportunist politicians, and disaffected persons, inside and outside the church, seek not just to destroy only one value as per 13 on the list but all values, because Satan is leading a ferocious campaign against God. Believers everywhere should therefore be on guard, vigilant to every attack from the enemy, from whatever source, and should fight just as ferociously to uphold the values of God, handed down to us by the apostles, and which we are duty-bound to pass on to future generations. If believers give in and endorse this same-sex agenda, and endorse same-sex marriages, then they should know that that is just the tip of the wedge to topple all that we believe in, and hold dear and sacred. The world can do as it pleases because they are lost, unredeemed, and without hope; except they turn to Jesus Christ. We wish they would repent, we pray and agonise before God for them, but we will never join them in their Satan-led, ferocious battle against

Host: On September the 11th 2001, the notorious terror organisation known as Al-Qaeda struck at the very heart of the United States. The death count was approximately 3,000; a nation was left in panic. To this day, counterterrorism experts and historians alike regard the event surrounding 9/11 as a turning point in US foreign relations. Outraged and fearful of radical terrorism from the middle-east, President Bush declared that in 2001 that it was a matter of freedoms; that “our very freedom has come under attack”. In his eyes, America was simply targeted because of its democratic and western values (CNN News, 2001). In the 14 years following this pivotal declaration, an aggressive, pre-emptive approach to terrorism replaced the traditional

The church needs to start implement SOS 8:8-9. In this part of the book the Daughters of Judah discuss how they will protect their younger sister. Based on what they have learned from the Wife of S.O.S. they determine that the best way to protect their sister is to encourage her if she chooses to protect sexual love and save it for her marriage, however if their sister chooses to flirt with every man and tries to awaken love before marriage they will stick by her side and guard her until she is
When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it is an abomination; end of debate. I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some of the other specific laws and how to follow them.
The Bible verse, Leviticus 18:22 is often used when people discuss how religion views homosexuality. The Jewish and Christian translations of this text are extremely similar to each other, what makes them different is the way they interpret them.
On September11, 2001 at 8:46 am an American Airline Plane carrying 96 passengers crashed into the side of the north Twin Tower in New York City. Several minutes later another plane crashed into the second Twin Tower. It didn’t take long after the second plane struck for the second tower to fully collapse. At 10:28 am the first tower followed suite and collapsed leaving many people including fire fighters and police officers trapped in the debris from the falling towers. The debris from the falling towers also caused the surrounding building to catch a fire, including World Trade 7 which at 5:20 pm collapsed luckily they were able to evacuate the building. Over 3,000 people were killed that day in New York City and in Washington, D.C. The days after 9/11 brought a significant amount of change to our country.
"Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy brother's wife." Leviticus, Chapter eighteen, Verse sixteen
The proper expression of human sexuality is a abiding question for the world of sexual ethics. There has never been a society that has not reflected upon and prescribed rules and regulations for this powerful and yet mysterious dimension of personhood; and there has seemingly never been a social order in which sexuality has not breached the boundaries established for it. On the surface scripture and much of the Christian response to sexuality appears to be establishing rules and regulations which attempt to limit sexual behavior until the ‘appropriate’ time or stage in ones life. Though this is a narrow understanding of sexual ethics– instead the goal of sexual ethics should be in the importance of how we relate ourselves and desires to others. Specifically, the relation between God : Humanity, and Humanity : Humanity.
Should one of the world’s biggest underwater ocean floor graveyards be invaded for the purpose of history? In the moral eyes of society, no. Who would want to dig up a graveyard? In my eyes, I think the opposite.
...omosexual relationship thusly described is part of the biblical concept to begin with, and such is an unfounded assertion refuted by the fair and careful examination of Scriptures.” (p. 51) Indeed, as we have already observed, it is contrary to God’s law.
“And if a man take a wife and her mother, it is wickedness: they shall be burnt with fire , both he and they; that there be no wickedness among you ( Lev. 20:14 KJV)

These questions arise from our own desires as Christians to reflect a biblically sound attitude towards sexuality and relationships. That same desire to act according to biblical scriptures is subject to opposition from today’s culture and views about sexual relationships, gender, and roles. A new definition of marriage, sexual orientation, and sexual practices is challenging our relationship with God and our view of human sexuality. Bishop John Spong defines sex and its impact on relationships: “Sex can be called at once the greatest gift to humanity and the greatest enigma of our lives. It is a gift in that is a singular joy for all beings and enigma in its destructive potential for people and their relationships.” (Spong, 1988)
