That was not prophesy, that was the state of the world then and it's been the continuing state of the world ever since.

No here's the real deal. Jesus is about righteousness John S. So do yourself a favor and realize that what you call "social issues" has to do with sin.Now you are showing your ignorance. You, among many, think that the words "liberal" and "conservative" apply ONLY to politics. They ALSO apply to social issues - and socially speaking, Jesus Christ was/is a liberal - in fact He is the Greatest Liberal of ALL Time.
You have NO right to condemn anyone. You are JUST as sinful as anyone else in the eyes of God - if not worse.
As far as the United States is concerned, this is NOT a religious country. It is a secular nation that believes in the "separation of church and state".
Its God telling us what happens when we turn away from him..
Remember Sodom and Gomorrah?
God doesn't put up with homosexuality becoming a "norm"..
Its not normal, and its not acceptable before God.
We should be witnessing to them.
Paul was speaking of individuals, not earthly nations. He was speaking to Graeco-Romans of his time about Graeco-Romans of his time.
It was true then. By extension, it applies forward to all people who do not acknowledge that there is a God who created the universe, because human nature has not changed.
Sodom was not the only city God destroyed. Christians getting on this homosexuality kick are allowing themselves to take a pass on the sin that is eating up the Church from the inside.
The Church teaches that sin is wrong, any sin, and homosexuality, is a sin.
What is the difference between a practicing Homosexual and a non practicing homosexual?A practicing homosexual who says they are "born that way" is technically correct,
Again I'll ask, can you prove that?I'm not gay

Rom 1:26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
Rom 1:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
Has anyone noticed the world agenda lately on protecting homosexuality?
1. The United States supreme court is overthrowing nearly every state that comes forward.
2. France has taken the same position on gays as the liberal US states have.
3. pOPE francis is on the cover of gay magazines with his "who am I to judge" slogan..( I agree, we don't judge their activity, but in no way can we promote it) Francis is making us as Christians look as if the Church doesn't have a problem with gay marriage.
4. Places in Russia and Africa are attempting to take a conservative position, but are receiving criticism from allies/ party members..
Many other coutries around the world are seeing pushes in legislation for more rights for those who want same sex marriage..
Amongst the other events that are starting to uncover themselves..
The things happening in this country, are a matter of sowing and reaping. Had men not treat women as second class citizens, there would have been no women's liberation movement.You are so close but still miss the point that you have rejected, already by your comment to one of my posts where I spoke of the Women's Liberation Movement of 1848, you said it was ridiculous but you will be surprised when it raises it's head. I see many say that they don't know what it will be but it's coming! Well, I'm telling all of you what to expect, and it isn't obvious to Gentile minds. The strong delusion won't allow the wicked to see truth for they will remain wicked, still, etc.
People discuss the after-affects of this movement, and they do without any reference to it. The 1844 great disappointment had a tremendous affect on the world and yet people today, who didn't live then seem to be authorities on the matter. The laws have changed because of the movement.
Admittedly, people say we have turned away from God but they themselves have not. Every single person seems to be an exception, and they are not deceived in spite of what the Bible says.
I'm telling all of you that the changes then in 1848 have caused the world, starting in America to turn away from God. The Gentile age is here, and has come beginning in 1848. It's has affected the mind's of the world population and all are as fallen away. God says that we profess Him with our mouth but our heart's are far-off from Him.
The heart is the mind, and the mind is spiritual, and this is what we cannot see with natural eyes therefore, it's goes undetected. As in the days of Noah so shall the end be.
I suggest that people start looking into the WLM 1848 before they say much more. People have the choice to turn a blind eye to it but God isn't. People discuss the sexual issues, and they ignore the cause.
Look for the cause, and not for Bandaids. Thanks
Apparently God doesn't put up with homosexuality being a "norm", but Incest is just fine and dandy with Him?
Got any daughters Vrba?

Kind of wake up and smell the coffee on this one...because you're building a straw man!
Walk through the gospels and see how Jesus treated women.
Furthermore people like to point to the passage in 2 Timothy 3:2 which says "men will be lovers of themselves"....it's not at all about homosexuality, which the bible thoroughly deals with. The passage is speaking of SELFISHNESS not sexuality.
The word "men" in the passage should be rendered "people"...and the word love is "philautos"...it's about being selfish.
On the specific point of Lot and his daughters, the answer is "no."
According to scripture, that act led to the creation of the nation of Moab, which was a sinful and unacceptable nation in relation to the Jews. In the later Mosaic law, such a coupling was explicitly forbidden.
Apparently it wasn't deemed wicked enough at the time to merit any sort of rebuke or punishment from God though... He just vaporized an entire city, ostensibly for it's Homosexuality, yet Gives Lot and His daughters a free pass and a resounding two thumbs up on their own sexual deviance?
This fact testifies that there was something deeper and more sinister behind Sodom's sin than where they put their willies.
