Gay marriage - civil law or punishment?
Dr. Roberto Miranda(Audio: Spanish)
SUMMARY:
The sermon is titled "Homosexual Marriage: Civil Right or Punishment." The pastor starts by acknowledging that this is a difficult and uncomfortable topic but feels it is necessary to address it. He reads from Romans 1:18-27 and focuses on the consequences of sin, specifically how people have exchanged the glory of God for the worship of creatures and dishonored their own bodies by engaging in sexual acts that go against God's design.
The pastor believes that in times of crisis and confusion, it is the duty of pastors and the Church to provide guidance and clarity to its members. He also believes that, in light of recent events, it is important to speak up about this topic. When the President publicly announced his support for homosexual marriage, it became even more urgent for the Church to give a clear and biblically-based response.
The pastor acknowledges that the nation is divided on this issue, but he believes that this division is not as clear as the polls suggest. He argues that many people are looking for guidance and are not receiving it from their moral leaders. He believes that remaining silent on this issue is allowing the nation to slide further away from God and towards destruction.
The pastor concludes by urging the Church to speak up and provide clear guidance on this issue. He believes that the foundations of the nation are being undermined, and if this continues, it will lead to a financial, political, and moral collapse.
In this sermon, the speaker discusses his concerns about the direction of the United States, including the increasing acceptance of homosexuality and the potential persecution of the Catholic Church. He argues that the Bible is abundantly clear in its rejection of homosexuality and that those who resist God's truth face his wrath and condemnation. He believes that homosexual behavior is a manifestation of divine judgment on a society that has turned away from God. The speaker also emphasizes the importance of showing respect and compassion towards those struggling with same-sex attraction, while also standing firm in biblical truth.
The speaker preaches that homosexuality is a manifestation of God's judgment on society and is not a civil right. He argues that it is a sin that dishonors the body and is a result of a twisted and confused mind. The speaker calls for Christians to speak out against homosexuality and to live in purity according to God's will. He also asks for God's mercy and healing for those struggling with homosexuality and for the nation as a whole. The sermon concludes with a call to repentance and participation in the Lord's Supper.We are going to the Word of the Lord and we are going to look in the Letter to the Romans. I would like this sermon to be a little lighter, as I told the brothers in the 9 o'clock service, but it is a necessary sermon, and it is a sermon that has to be preached, before the opportunity and the moment pass, and I want let them know that my desire is to bless you, edify you, strengthen you, and I called this sermon this morning, a hygienic sermon,
in the sense that its purpose is to heal, cleanse, repair us, and as sometimes, as hygienic things are caustic, and it stings when they heal, they hurt, they are bitter, acidic, but they also heal and kill infections, and that is the way the Word of God is many times, it confronts us, it is unpleasant for us to listen to it many times but it enters deep in our hearts, and my desire is precisely to give you the nutrients you need as your main Pastor, and to bless you with the advice of the Word of the Lord, and you will see why I make this preamble within a moment, because the topic is a topic a p Quite strong but necessary in the times we live in, and my desire is to bless you, and there is no mood to criticize anyone, simply to announce the advice of the Word of God in a time that is necessary.
