Take Up and Read


Kevin DeYoung addresses why gay marriage has become popular with young people. He also tells us what Christians can do about it. As usual, a lot of wisdom and balance in this post.

Carl Trueman explains how the church's compromise with gay marriage began with our acceptance of no-fault divorces. This is a good word, but I would go further and say it began with our severing of marriage and fruitfulness. It began when we decided the sexual relationship was primarily about personal pleasure and not about children.

Here is a longer, more difficult article by Robin Phillips on gay marriage and its implications for traditional marriage. It is heady, but good.

Finally, here is an article by Tim Bayly on why he uses the word sodomy instead of gay or homosexual.

Let the saints be joyful in glory, let them sing aloud on their beds, let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two edged sword in their hand, to execute vengeance on the nations, and punishments on the peoples; to bind the kings with chains and their nobles with fetters of iron. Psalm 149:5-8
