Please Don't Change the Definition of Marriage

Marriage - a (1) : the state of being united to a person of the opposite sex as husband or wife in a consensual and contractual relationship recognized by law.

Using the primary Webster's definition of "marriage", a "same-sex marriage" is literally a "same sex union of two people of the opposite sex" which is an oxymoran.

Obama administration to express support for gay marriage before Supreme Court

By Pete Williams, Chief Justice Correspondent, NBC News
 
Administration officials say the Justice Department will urge the U.S. Supreme Court to allow same-sex marriage to resume in California, wading into the protracted legal battle over Proposition 8 and giving gay-rights advocates a new court ally.
After first suggesting it would not get involved, the Obama administration will file a friend-of-the-court brief late today in support of the two gay couples who launched the fight over the issue four years ago, the officials said. Today is the last day for filing briefs in support of the couples' position.

Please don't change the definition of marriage.  Two people of the same sex who desire to imitate a marriage can only do just that, imitate.  And one of the two can only pretend to be the opposite sex from their partner.  But the players must beware that when sexual activity takes place between the two partners, a violation of God's law has occurred and the violation will be added to all other existing actions, thoughts, or words that are outlined in God's Holy Word as being sins worthy of the penalty of eternal death and separation from God, which is the same condemnation under which every person - straight or gay - is also under as well.  The only remedy or correction for this condition which is common to all persons is to confess (i.e. agree with God) that we have broken His laws, ask His forgiveness based on the understanding that Yeshua, the Son of God, took the punishment for our sins upon Himself and currently has the offer of forgiveness for our sins and pardon for our guilt and recieve His free gift of eternal life! 

It's not that homosexuality is a worse sin than pride or glutony, but our Supreme Court, with full endorsement of our president, is about to officially tell YHWY that He is totally wrong and that we as a nation are ready to declare His Torah (His Instruction) to be null and void.  Yet, we wring our hands and try to fix the ills of this land while singing, "God Bless America!"  All my broken heart can sing in the midst of such an "Obamanation" is "Lord, Have Mercy."

Persecution of the Church Begins By Teaching That All Church-Goers Are The Church

  I saw this article online and it naturally caught my attention.  It was written by Moises Mendez II who, according to his own profile is "a recent graduate from the Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at CUNY. He is a freelance journalist based in New York City writing about everything from music to LGBTQ issues." What is your reaction to this statement? "Sunday morning after church is the worst type of customer... you won't change my mind."  My first thought was, "Well, that's one guy's opinion and he has a right to it, but he would have to already have a bias against Christians to make such a blanket conclusion about all people who go to church on Sundays."  Mr. Mendez is not the one pictured here, but he included in his article this video by a Tik-Tok-er named Saint_Hypnos as "exhibit A" for his post: If the video won't play, go to  Servers Say 'Sunday Morning After Church' Are the Worst Customers (dailydot.co

D.S. al Coda is Back!

After a three-year hiatus from writing this Blog, I have picked up D.S. al Coda once again.  I left off this blog site as I wrote a weekly column for the Lexington Chronicle since January of 2019.  I felt somewhat restricted from being able to write solely about the most important things in life to me--our Heavenly Father and the salvation we can have through Jesus Christ, His Son. I enjoyed the experience of writing for the paper and felt I should do so as my father, Rev. Bert Williams wrote articles for years for the Orangeburg T & D.  And I recently compiled and published a book called, "A Year of Sr. Living--52 articles form the Lexington Chronicle 2019-2021".  I would love for you to have a copy of this book.  It is on sale for $10 at this website: www.RestoringHisTruth.com . Postage is free and I will be happy to mail you a copy or simply sell it to you at Lexington Baptist Church. I enjoy writing.  I had a professor who said 3 words that I never forgot: “Be a write

The Greatest War Hero of All Time

Image
Today is Memorial Day.   This national holiday began after the Civil War in 1868 and was originally called Decoration Day since it began as a practice of decorating the graves of soldiers in the national cemeteries.    Since it originated in the north by those wanting to memorialize the union soldiers who had died, the southern states began having their own Confederate Decoration Day traditions, but by the 20th century the two competing factions merged into a unified Memorial Day to honor all Americans who had died in military service.    After many years of Memorial Day being observed every year on May 30, no matter what day of the week it fell, in 1968 Congress passed a law making 4 national holidays to always be on a Monday to give us four 3-day weekends.   So, Memorial Day is now always on the last Monday of May, and it marks the beginning of summer in America.     Do you have any idea how many Americans have died in combat over our 241-year history? 1.1 Million.
