Mark 10:6-8 (AMP) 6 But from the beginning of creation God made them male and female. 7 For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother [to establish a home with his wife],<\/span> 8 and the two shall become one flesh; so that they are no longer two, but [are united as]<\/span> one flesh<\/span>.<\/p>\n

As Jesus addressed the religious leaders who were questioning Him, He spoke the words above, quoting from the Old Testament scrolls, in Genesis 2:24-25.<\/p>\n

While the discussion they were having revolved around the topic of divorce, what He said to them has a much larger application than just that topic.<\/p>\n

The verses He quoted implicitly state that a man <\/strong>and a woman <\/strong>are joined together in marriage. And that relationship is designed to cause them to become one.<\/p>\n

With the moral decay of society in recent years, we are seeing this truth challenged as the world embraces what it calls \u201csame sex marriage\u201d between pairs of homosexual males or homosexual females.<\/p>\n

There has been a mass concerted effort over the last 2 decades to dissuade society from accepting Biblical truth and push them to embrace this terrible perversion.<\/p>\n

And, sadly, it has worked to some degree, as we see an increasing percentage of the population embrace this \u201csocial deviation\u201d that the Bible plainly calls sin.<\/p>\n

This has put followers of Christ in some very awkward situations, specifically when it comes to people of the same sex getting married.<\/p>\n

Wedding invitations arriving in our mailboxes to attend and witness a homosexual ceremony force us to make what is undeniably a difficult decision for many people.<\/p>\n

Most Christians are torn when these invitations arrive. And the big question is always, \u201cshould we attend a wedding for a relationship that we know is Biblically wrong?\u201d.<\/p>\n

And while there is an emotional element that pulls on us, we must look at this outside <\/strong>of our emotions, looking at it by the spirit, and not through the lens of fear or intimidation.<\/p>\n

Here is the bottom-line truth that must be digested, which may make it easier to choose what to do.<\/p>\n

Understand why people attend weddings.<\/p>\n

We are there to witness<\/strong>, celebrate<\/strong>, and show support<\/strong> to the couple getting married.<\/p>\n

Our attendance is a way of giving that marriage our stamp of approval as we witness the sharing of the wedding vows and the joining of that couple.<\/p>\n

Just looking at it from that point of view should help us make the decision that we may be wrestling with.<\/p>\n

No one can tell <\/i>us which choice to make. We <\/strong><\/i>must choose.<\/p>\n
