Yes, a black day in history.
(excerpts from others)
LifeSiteNews Editor-in-Chief John-Henry Westen
Today is a black day in history. The U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to redefine marriage will affect not just the United States, but will have ramifications worldwide. I hope you will join me in prayer and fasting that this unconscionable decision will instead spark a renewal of commitment by Christians and other men and women of good will to fight for the natural definition of marriage, and the rights of children to a mother and a father.

Much more can be said. I am still in shock – not surprised, but still stunned, in heavy grief, and crying out to God for his vindication. Now more than ever we need real men and women disciples of Jesus Christ. The time is over for playing games, for following our trivial pursuits, for living at ease in Zion.
Now we are fully involved in a war whether we like it or not. And those who do not join in, or think they can just sit on the fence, have already declared their true hand: they are part of the other side, and are not on the Lord’s side.

We stand united together in defense of marriage. Make no mistake about our resolve. While there are many things we can endure, redefining marriage is so fundamental to the natural order and the common good that this is the line we must draw and one we cannot and will not cross….
Dr David van Gend
“The moral dementia of the West is evident when the honourable name of marriage is given to a relationship that can only be consummated by an indecent act.
“Even if we are the last western country standing we will not abandon future children to a motherless or fatherless future, or sacrifice the sanity of natural marriage on the altar of sexual license”, Dr van Gend concluded.”

Millennials, do you have the courage to stand on the ‘wrong side of history’?

Yet, courts around the country chose to disregard the will of the people in favor of political correctness and social experimentation. And we witnessed firsthand the consequences, as individuals were repeatedly targeted by the government for not actively supporting homosexual marriage. Sadly, our nation’s highest Court, which should be a symbol of justice, has chosen instead to be a tool of tyranny, elevating judicial will above the will of the people.
Chief Justice Roberts in his dissent on the 5-4 court decision,
Five lawyers have closed the debate and enacted their own vision of marriage as a matter of constitutional law. Stealing this issue from the people will for many cast a cloud over same-sex marriage, making a dramatic social change that [is] much more difficult to accept.”
A defeat for ‘We the People’ and our posterity BY DAVID UPHAM

The world is reeling as a result of three terrorist attacks and yet we see continuing destruction of our society from within. Might we be in the same dilemma as Habakkuk?
Can we hold back the tide of evil in Australia?
Will we even be targeted for asking this question?
The need for discernment and spiritual warfare has never been greater.
And in this awareness we must never think we can stand in our own strength.

“When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.” (Jesus in Luke 21:28)
Astonishing power granted to the sodomites!
Now the sodomites have the ability to shut down all Christian TV, radio, blogs, magazines, papers, and churches throughout the USA and other Western nations which embrace this as new law.
The sodomites will simply employ their “politically correct thought police” to read everything, go to every church etc and report back to their lawyers any adverse findings. This will be followed by thousands of law suits which will seek the forced closure of Christian media, the imprisoning pastors, the shutting of churches and the scattering of the sheep. Law suits will also be drawn up to remove any mention of the word “sodomy”, “sodomite”, or any equivalent modern word, from the current law statutes and from the Bible itself.
Now is the time to begin to prepare for a season of “underground church” in the USA and other Western nations. Memorizing scripture and training for prison ministry should begin. Preaching with kingdom power also is now necessary if we are to see the mighty power of God quench this evil in the due course of His will.

The underlying reason for supporting homosexual ‘marriage’ is not so much to appease a few hundred thousand homosexuals throwing tantrums because not everyone approves of them having unnatural sexual unions. No other homosexual group in the history of the world has had the temerity to demand overt approval for this behaviour, including the sage Socrates sharing his couch with the lissome youth, Alcibiades; nor the autocratic and perverted Caligula. The purpose of demanding approval and marriage licences for homosexuals is to challenge religions, especially Christian churches, that have resisted demands to approve homosexual union as a tenet of their faith. If the cultural Marxists can undermine the integrity of churches through protection this supposed liberty, they will have an avenue to legally bankrupt the churches, in much the same way as Thomas Cromwell dismantled the English Catholic church through Dissolution of the monasteries and brought the Church of England directly under the tutelage of the English sovereign. Similarly, cultural Marxist governments in the West will be able to use homosexual marriage as a Trojan horse to gain control of Christian churches, perhaps the last surviving institutional bastion of conservative values.
