The Christian Science Monitor reported on March 16, 2013 that a Republican Sen. Rob Portman of Ohio, is pushing the homosexual issue to the fore, becoming the highest-profile GOP lawmaker to lend support to gay marriage while in office. His reversal on the issue Friday is significant considering he is one of the original backers of the federal Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) in the 1990s and a constitutional amendment to define marriage as between one man and one woman in 2004.
Portman's reversal is, indeed, a catastrophe! When one of the original supporters of Christian traditional marriage reverses his position and joins the gay side, he is sending a strong message that was dead wrong in taking his original position. Multiply the effect caused by his high political ranking as a Senator from Ohio, and you can begin to see the damage to supporters of the Biblical issue of homosexuality that is being done. This damage may open irreparable breaches in the dam holding America back from fully becoming Sodom.
Thank God the rank-and-file Republican Party is not fully supportive of LGTB rights - yet.
"The platform speeches at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) this week in Maryland still suggest a party that remains in large opposition to gay marriage. Indeed, recent polls show that a small percentage of registered Republican voters – 23 percent in the latest Quinnipiac University poll – support same-sex marriage ... Changing the party's opposition to gay marriage is likely to gain traction only if it means bringing a sizable voting bloc to their side ... however, gay voters represent a small minority of the Republican Party, and not one that will probably move the outcomes of tight votes one way or other."
Republican Party leaders have quietly sown the seeds of massive gay support within the Republican Party. Did you know that Gays/Lesbians were just as pleased in June, 2002, with the policies of Republican President George W. Bush as they were of President William Clinton?
"America has come full circle, from God's blessing to God's curse. America is the new Sodom, and we are living "in the days of Lot" (Luke 17:27-29)
After reading this material, you will realize how important it is for Christian parents to get their precious children out of Public Schools
Given strong GOP leanings toward the gay lifestyle, that time may not be far off! What will tens of millions of undiscerning Conservative Christians do when their favorite political party embraces the gay lifestyle? Will they then realize the folly of believing there is a difference between Republican and Democrat Parties?
