The Snake said:Couldn't same sex marriage be somekind of test for our love of everyone regardless of what their preferences are?...
We as Christians need to learn to love EVERYONE.I think that is something that is missing from every church....
God loves everyone and expects the same of us.
Love does not mean sex.
When God reveals to us that he wants us to love everyone, he certainly does not mean that we are to have sex with everyone.
I don't think God is 'testing us' by giving us the issue of same sex marriage. But I do think he is very interested in what we decide to do, as the Church, regarding whether we accept homosexuality or not. And in a way, I am not sure whether it's the final decision that he is interested in most, but rather it's the way we go about deliberating the decision and implementing it.
I think God is mostly interested in the condition of our hearts when we are thinking about these issues and making decisions as the Church.
