Just Saying... (Opinion about the Same Marriage)

THIS IS JUST AN OPINION ABOUT THE SAME MARRIAGE.

 

I am deeply saddened by the recent decision of the United States Supreme Court to legalize same- marriage. I am saddened not because I am racist or I hate those who are pro same- relationships but because these people are missing the true meaning of love. In fact, I love those who like the same-, in a relationship with the same-, or even those who are pro same- relationships that I am writing this to show the love that should definitely win.

 

There are 2 defining truths about love that we all need to understand.

 

First of all, love is not about accepting everyone based on what they want or desire. It is about desiring what is best for everyone. As the eldest sister, I desire what’s best for my brothers because I love them. If my brothers ask me if they could have a pet scorpion that they could touch, I will definitely say no. Even if my brothers cry, get angry at me, or say that I don’t care for them, I will still not give their request because I know that’s not the best for them. They may not understand it now, but they will in the future.

 

Similarly, God wants what’s best for us because He loves us. When it comes to romantic relationships, He knows what is best because He created marriage. The first couple He married was Adam and Eve, a guy and a girl. This is His design. Going against the design is never the best thing. Some people might ask, “Who decides what is best for a person or a group of people?” The answer of course is God. He created us. He designed us. And, He perfectly loves us.

 

Second defining truth about love: God designed love and therefore knows how to perfectly show it and how it really operates. God perfectly showed this kind of love when He sent His Son, Jesus, to die for our sins. When Jesus was still on earth, He showed love to an adulterous woman by asking those who wanted to throw stones at her the question, “Let any one of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.” (John 8:7) The woman deserved death because she committed adultery but Jesus showed amazing grace. Furthermore, Jesus’ love and grace didn’t just protect the woman from the consequence of her sins; it gave her a chance to have a new life. That is why Jesus said to her, “then neither do I condemn you…Go now and leave your life of sin.” (John 8:11) This is the kind of love that should win: The love that desires for people to receive the best.

 

Same- marriage is not the best. It is not God’s design. How can the created know better than the Creator? Are our feelings more accurate than God’s design? Some might say that they believe God still loves them even if they are in a same- relationship. The truth is: Yes! God still loves you but He loves you so much that He doesn’t want you to stay in that situation. He wants the best. He can change what you feel. He can lead you to how He created you to be.

 

I will end by including a portion of what I wrote before about romantic love: “feelings are not to be discounted. But our feelings should be evaluated and guided by the parameters of God. Imagine for a moment if all our feelings were unevaluated. Feelings of cheating, feelings of theft, feelings of having an affair, feelings of ia, feelings of murder… What kind of world will result because of this? What kind of families will this create? What kind of government officials will this develop? That is why God has set parameters – not to enslave us, but to give us freedom from the consequences of pursuing the wrong things we want. Therefore, God’s parameters on romantic love (design and purpose) make this kind of love more beautiful.

 

God is never a killjoy but a Giver of true joy. He gives limits so we can experience His unlimited blessings. Furthermore, God loves each one of us perfectly whatever struggles we face (whether we admit we have or not). In fact, He loves us so much that He desires for us to be the person He created us to be and not the person we want to be. Give His design and purpose a chance. Besides, He created us.”

 

I never intended to offense anyone here. This is merely my opinion about the same marriage.Since I've been receiving lots of blog updtes about this, why not share mine right? :) Have a good day everyone.

I couldn't agree more with you tbh. If more and more other countries legalize same marriage then the population of human being would be come to extinction somehow in the future since two people with same can't reproduce. Just my opinion though-

I think they knew that whatever they're doing have consequences. They knew about this. That's the perks of being one of LGBT community. They'll always receive something bad from others. So, all we have to do is respect their decision and pray for them.
