LET’S GET IT STRAIGHT
In understanding Scripture, the “law of the first mention” is critical. When God states something the first time, He lays down a foundation for that particular truth. He adds to it and develops it throughout the rest of His Word, but He does not change from the establishing of the “first mention.”The first mention of marriage in the Bible is in Genesis 2:24. In this Scripture God speaks of the man and his wife and the father and mother. God puts male and female together—His plan from eternity. There is no mention of same sexes.
If we want something to work properly, we must read the manual from the one who designed it. God is the one who created our bodies and designed marriage, and we better make sure we take notice of His manual.
One of the synonyms of marriage is matrimony, usually called “holy matrimony,” the union of a man and woman for life. It comes from the Latin word, “matrimonium,” from “mater,” from which come the words mother, maternal, matrimony, marriage.
Therefore, the full understanding of marriage is that the wife can become a mother. This cannot happen naturally in a homosexual relationship. It is totally unnatural and against God’s divine order of creation and His eternal plan for us.
We cannot bow to mortal man’s deception, distortion, and desecration of divine truth.
