Revival and the Heart

We do not need a change of Politicians, we do not need a change of Laws, we do not need a change of our Nation, we do not need a change of Morality. What we need is a change of hearts, for when the heart changes the Politicians change, the Laws change, the Nation changes, and the Morality changes.

Pray for change of hearts in our nation!

2 Chr 7:14
14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
(NIV)

Supreme Court and DOMA, an Oxymoron

As you have probably heard that today June 26, 2013 the Supreme Court nudged the nation toward broad recognition of same-sex marriage rulings hailed by advocates as a "joyous occasion".

Voting 5-4 in each of two decisions, justices threw out part of a law that denied hundreds of federal benefits to same-sex couples and cleared the way for gays and lesbians to once again marry in California.

The divided high court also handed a victory to same-sex proponents when it cleared the way for gay and lesbian couples to marry in California, Dismissing an appeal to the state's voter-approved Proposition 8 that banned such marriages. The 5-4 decision avoids, for now, a sweeping conclusion on whether same-sex marriage is a constitutional "equal protection" right that would apply to all states.

Where all this heads is that the High Court is leaving the States to determine same-sex marriages, which is an oxymoron. The State of California already voted against same-sex marriage and the 9th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals determined that Proposition 8 to be revoked. The U.S. Court in California determined same-sex marriage, not the people of California. The High Court is now bypassing the Constitution by the people, it is not the courts but the people who determine, except in California. One judge determines, and the people have no more say. The Constitution is now buried and trampled on.
