Leviticus 18

It is interesting here, that God gave to the Israelites and us this set of laws regarding the boundary of marriage, and most of them our culture follows. Incest, for example, is a horror and a shock to our culture. Zoophilia is something that we may here about once in awhile, but again it is usually not accepted. Culturally, it is not acceptable, but there are always exceptions to it. But my point here is, out of all laws given by God in this chapter, people aren't fighting to get zoophilia legalized. People aren't fighting for equal rights for those who commit incest. But when it comes to homosexuality, then it's a very sensitive issue, like abortion. People assume that you're on one side of the fence or the other. But what nonbelievers and some Christians don't understand, is that this belief is coming from human desire to change the rules to fit what we want to do. We don't want to be wrong, and we don't want to have to change. We find excuses, that God's word is meant to be interpreted to fit today's culture, that the people who teach it don't know what they are talking about and we know better than them. But the scriptures condemn this mindset. God's word is God's word, He made it, and it is not subject to change. Every word of God is flawless, and when we add our ideas and our thoughts about how it should be then we are condemned. We need to trust in God's word %100, and not question it, because we read in the Scriptures that nations were destroyed by God himself because of what they did. And which is worse? Committing one sin, and then repenting, or surrendering to the god of human logic and the god of culture, turning the back of a hardened heart to God, and committing who knows how much more sin until we are finally restored to repentance, if we are. Let us begin to apply the Word of God in our lives, so we can be better servants to this community and to ourselves.
