Defining and Defending Marriage
This Sunday we will take a break from our series in I Samuel, though our subject is not entirely unrelated.
As you probably know the California Supreme Court (by a vote of 5-4) recently overturned the law (which had been passed by over 60% of the voters eight years ago) which ‘only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in the state of California' and ordered the statewide recognition of same sex-marriage. This November Californians will have the opportunity to vote on Proposition 8 which would overturn the Supreme Court's ruling by amending the state constitution to say that ‘only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in the state of California.'
My purpose in this sermon will be:
To positively set forth God's plan for the family, which is revealed in creation. Gen. 2:18ff
To explain how our culture's slide into immorality is a judgment from God. Rom. 1:20ff
To offer help in the gospel to all kinds of sinners (even homosexuals). I Cor. 6:9ff
