Robert Gagnon, professor of NT at Pittsburgh Theological Seminary, offers some very helpful and biblical responses to the arguments being pushed by gay-rights activists in today's society.
The homosexual lobbyists and activists are aggressively pursuing their agenda of redefining marriage to include homosexual unions. Violent outbursts in California recently focused the attention of the nation on the issues surrounding homosexuality and marriage. California recently voted in favor of Proposition 8 which defined marriage as an institution between a man and a woman. Californians have passed similar ballot initiatives in the past several years, only to have their will overturned by 7 judges in robes who create laws from the bench. This is the modus operandi, or standard operating procedure, of leftist liberals who cannot get their policies passed into law- they appeal to radically leftist state supreme courts, and those judges, drunk with their own power and in complete disregard of their constituent citizens, create laws from the bench which override the voice of the people of their respective states.
It is my contention that the issues of marriage and homosexuality, like the issue of abortion, are settled once one has a biblically informed worldview. This video interview featuring Robert Gagnon will go a long way toward giving Christians a biblically informed response should this issue ever come up in conversation or should the state of Ohio ever face ballot initiatives similar to those faced in CA.
The video is long (28 min) but well worth your time.
