I have never hidden
my distaste for homosexuals and lesbians. That God prescribes death sentence
for this scurrilous conduct highlights how revolting and abominable it is. If there is a man
who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed
a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death. Their blood guiltiness is
upon them. (Leviticus 20:13)
However, in this libertine age of misconstrued grace, society has been overly
tolerant of the evil. Even in the 17th century, New England and some American
colonies adopted this biblical recommendation of death for homosexuals until
1786, after the Revolution, when man rebelled against God, with Pennsylvania in the lead
by dropping the death penalty. Of more recent is the June 26, 2003 US Supreme
Court ruling in the Lawrence versus Texas suit that annulled the Texas same sex
sodomy law on the grounds that sex was covered by the liberty rights of the US
constitution. Ever since, morality has taken a steep decline, even in
traditional African societies and the church.
In a recent post, a
young undergraduate of the University
of Port Harcourt met a
homosexual on the social media. He was sent N20, 000 to come to Lagos for sexual tryst.
After the romp, somewhere in Ifako area, he was paid N150, 000. To his utter
shock and amazement, soon after, he started developing multiple organs – five
full-blown penises (the picture too repulsing to publish here). By this time
though, his homosexual partner had vanished into thin air, leaving the young
man in quandary.
Much as one is not
rejoicing over this avoidable tragedy, it is timely warning for similarly
inclined men and women to make a detour from the ignoble path of perdition lest
greater calamity befalls them. The same message goes to the fallen Miss
Anambra, whose disgusting video of sex act, using cucumber of all things was
trending in social media and all same sex inclined perverts.
God still loves
them though, both homosexuals and lesbians. But He hates their despicable
conduct and unless they repent, they will surely perish. They may hide from man
but not from God. It is obvious that God seems to have taken up the task
of enforcing His own laws, which no man can annul.
Donald Trump is the
man of the moment for whom the impossible has happened. The much-hyped
presidential election in the United
States climaxed last Tuesday, posting a most
unexpected result. The candidate of the Republican Party, Donald Trump, a
billionaire business mogul, trounced the candidate of the Democratic Party,
Hilary Clinton, former first lady, former senator, former secretary of state,
and former this and that.
Trump was trailed
by many controversies all the way from the primaries, including tax evasion and
philandering with different women, some of whom openly accused him of groping
them. But he braced all of the odds stoically and weathered the storm alone,
even when leading lights in his party abandoned him. Trump was a one-man riot
squad, who could even be described as an independent candidate though he
contested on the Republican Party’s platform.
