As we are studying through the book of Galatians, a few weeks ago, we came to Galatians 5:19, where Paul is speaking of the deeds of the flesh. And he says now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are, and then what follows is a whole catalog of evil telling us of what we're capable of in terms of our sinful flesh. And the first three sins on the list that Paul gives is immorality, impurity, and sensuality. Other things follow, but it's intriguing that Paul begins this list.
with sexual sins in the category of sexual sins, there is homosexuality, and there have been Some recent developments on the political front in our state and in our country and even in around the world, that have put this issue more in front of us, in recent days. And so we have asked, Mike, our associate pastor, if he would come and speak to us on, on this topic. So, Mike, why don't you come and let's welcome our brother. Am I on?
There we go. OK. yeah, the, the topic this morning is titled homosexual marriage. Why should we care?
What should we do? And as I address this topic, I'll just confess right out the gate that, while I've narrowed it, there's no way possible that you could cover all the different facets of this. We've tried to link on, if you go to our home page on the website and you look down below, there, there'll be a link that says, links related to this morning's message, and you click on that and there's going to be about 9 or 10 different resources that'll refer you to. And so I just encourage you to take advantage of that, because no doubt I am going to raise more questions this morning....
