Leviticus 18:22-23 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is an abomination. Neither shall thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it is confusion.
Ah Friends, just one more possibility why our world is in such great turmoil; we’re just straying further and further from the Lord’s dictates. It seems that homosexuality and bestiality have been around since ancient times. Then it was considered an abomination punishable by death. ‘If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.’ (Lev.20:13) The same goes for bestiality: ‘Cursed be he that lieth with any manner of beast.’ (Deut.27:21) Leviticus 20:15-16, is even more specific, saying that if either man or woman lies with a beast, both they and the beast shall be put to death. Now the death penalty may be a bit harsh, showing how much God was against it, to meet out such dire punishment. But Friends, today homosexuality is so rampant, it’s become so entrenched in society, that it’s even been legalized in some places. Even saying that it’s wrong is frowned upon, not considered politically correct. Like our leaders, lawmakers, churches, ministers and society to a large degree, have forgotten to read, or conveniently bypassed these two verses. ‘Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out before you. And the land is defiled: therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land itself vomiteth out her inhabitants.’ (Lev.18:24-25) Yes Friends, the Lord keeps His promises; Sodom, Gomorrah, the Israelites through several captivities, Rome, Babylon, and many other immoral, ungodly societies that have fallen along the continuum of time. Once a nation or society gets too big for it’s britches, forgets where its largesse and safety truly come from, and behaves as a law unto itself, the inevitable, inevitably happens. How often do we have to suffer the consequences of disobedience before we really realize the truth eh? Whether you believe in God or not, we’re all smart enough to realize that there’s a higher power, a greater universal law, the Law of God which transcends that of man. Otherwise we would be able to control and prevent all the disasters that occur in our world. I know that Jesus’ coming brought into being a new covenant with God, and some things changed. I doubt that included the acceptance of homosexuality and bestiality. Obviously Bruh Paul held forth on it. ‘And likewise also the man, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet.’ (Rom.1:27) Yes Friends, they paid the penalty. And though there seems to be no penalty in today’s laws, there still is in God’s. And remember whose law rules. ‘Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts to dishonour their own bodies between themselves.’ (Rom.1:24) God did not give them permission, He just withdrew His gracious help, left them to their own devices, to eventually suffer the consequences of the lie they were living. It’s the same today Friends: We have freedom of choice, so God does not intervene in our affairs right away, He gives us time to do right or continue doing wrong, but at some stage, when the wrongdoing gets to Him, He will finally set the consequences in motion. Rest assured of that people. So to him who has ears, let him hear. Much LOVE!…when yuh doh hear…yuh does feel…
