God's Word and God's creative order are so clear that God intends male and female marriage to be THE place where we are to HONOR sexual intimacy. I so want to be able to share Christ's sacrificial love with all people, including homosexuals. God, however, has a plan that we are to honor and obey, especially as regards how God chooses to bring life into the world and protect and nurture it. I love adoptive parents and all those who stand in the gap for children whose birth parents cannot provide the loving home that is required for healthy children to grow up. I love couples and grieve with those who cannot bear children. But God's intent, broken in this fallen world, is that intimate sexuality be the foundation of family life, where parents care for children in self-giving and self-sacrificial love. What we are doing at this assembly is to continue to move away from God's intent. I appreciate your prayers as I, and many others, decide what we will do and how we will act in the days and weeks to come.Steve Thorsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17378015932917535496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1344424071192264900.post-47266661592723178922009-08-21T08:59:25.740-05:002009-08-21T08:59:25.740-05:00Pastor Steve, You are in my prayers today.Pastor Steve, You are in my prayers today.Kimnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1344424071192264900.post-50591967752266691042009-08-20T14:50:15.229-05:002009-08-20T14:50:15.229-05:00Prayers for strength... on the way...Prayers for strength... on the way...Waynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00075308627827022670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1344424071192264900.post-58352806438018777682009-08-20T09:24:32.255-05:002009-08-20T09:24:32.255-05:00It is interesting to note that Luther's "...It is interesting to note that Luther's "Bound Conscience" was bound by Scriptures, now our "Bound Conscience" is bound by whatever we want it to be bound by. <br /><br />Sad indeed.<br /><br />There are many issues I accept without endorsing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
