One of the main problems in the Corinthian church was the growing sin of immorality (Chapter 5). Immorality = any sexual activity outside of the God ordained marriage between one man and one woman.
The word ‘tolerant’ has taken on a new meaning, as to what we are to be tolerant of in our society today. The Bible is very clear as to what followers of Christ are to tolerate and of what we are to be intolerant. I Corinthians 5:9-10; 6:9-10 couldn’t be more clear, that the practice of “homosexuality” is not accepted by God. After a commissioners meeting, I asked politely one of the organizers of the June 5 event what he thought the passage in I Corinthians 6 meant. He had no response for me.
The main point of this letter is to inform the readers that since the Supreme Court ruling for ‘“Gay marriage” a huge amount of health issues have become epidemic.
Frankly, Christians are expected to overlook Gen. 19; Lev. 18; Ezekiel 3, 33; Rom. 1; 1 Cor. 5:9-10. 6:9-10 and Gal. 5:19-21. We can’t. There is hope through Jesus Christ. Mt. 11:28-30 and John 3:16!

Yours in Christ.
