Some of the most powerful institutions in our society are telling us what we should think about gay marriage.The folks over at Newsweek magazine has certainly made their feelings known on this issue.
Many of us read Newsweek on a regular basis growing up. It has been one of the most cherished news weeklies for decades.
Well, Newsweek magazine has actually published a cover story entitled "Gay Marriage: Our Mutual Joy" that declares that the Bible not only condones but actually promotes gay marriage.
The lead in to the article says this:
"Opponents of gay marriage often cite Scripture. But what the Bible teaches about love argues for the other side."
It seems as though the debate over this issue has reached a boiling point.
Even the Roman Catholics are changing.
The head of the Vatican press office has announced that the Roman Catholic Church is against outlawing homosexual behavior, although it remains opposed to same sex marriages.
All of these events have caused us to reflect on this piece of Scripture:
For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.
-2 Timothy 4:3
