Biblical Marriage

It is abundantly clear from Scripture that marriage is between one man and one woman. In the gospel of Mark (10:6-7), Jesus said, "But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife;" Any arrangement other than one man and one woman is perversion.

We live in a world where the majority believes their own ideas should replace the Word of God as the new standards by which acceptable conduct is determined.  This is a grave error.  The Scripture points out in Jeremiah 17:9, "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?".  And, in Matthew 15:19 we are told, "For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:"  

Rejecting the clear teaching of Scripture in favor of the thoughts of their own heart, those who promote or condone marriage between two people of the same sex are deceived.

I stand on the Word of God as the supreme standard by which all conduct, creed, or opinion should be tried. The heart of man cannot be trusted.  Let God be true, and every man a liar.
