A Sad Day for Our Nation, and a Significant One for the Church

These are fast-changing times. While there are many who just a couple of decades ago predicted that we as a nation would arrive at this day, no one could have foreseen just how quickly the ground would change beneath our feet. And though this is a day to reflect and to mourn for where the sexual revolution has taken us, it is not a day to abandon hope in the Gospel and run for the hills. We are missionaries, after all - all of us who have been regenerated by the Holy Spirit. We have a Savior and Victor who has given us a holy mandate - "go", "preach", "baptize", teach". The hour has come for us to revisit the Cross, remind ourselves of the content of the faith once delivered to the saints, and be equipped to proclaim Good News while we give an answer to those who ask why we would hold to such a strange and otherworldly position that God defines marriage as only between and man and a woman.

Church of God, pick up the armor that has been set before you. The Lord draws near. We have a Redeemer and His return is imminent. We have a Gospel that must be preached. And we have a family, the body of Christ, which is the safe haven for receiving the refugees of the sexual revolution.

Onward, brothers and sisters.
