SHOULD A CHRISTIAN ATTEND THE WEDDG OF A GAY UPLE?

First, a word of enuragement: if you are the kd of iend that a gay uple would ve to their weddg, then you are probably dog somethg right. Homosexualy is jt one of many ss listed 1 Corthians 6:9-10 that will keep a person om the kgdom of God.

SHOULD I ATTEND THE WEDDG OF A GAY FRIEND OR FAY MEMBER?

Some would ntend that a Christian should have no qualms about attendg a gay weddg and that one’s prence at a gay weddg do not necsarily dite support for the homosexual liftyle. The problem is that a gay weddg is a celebratn of two people who are livg a liftyle that God clar to be immoral and unnatural (Romans 1:26-27). “Marriage should be honored by all” (Hebrews 13:4), but a gay weddg dishonors marriage by pervertg s meang.

IS WRONG FOR A CHRISTIAN TO ATTEND A GAY WEDDG?

Unlike weddgs of those other fahs, a gay weddg do not qualify as a marriage, acrdg to what God clar marriage to be. A gay unn is not a marriage God’s ey. Suppose a Christian uld attend a gay weddg and somehow munite clearly that he is supportg only the dividuals gettg married and not their liftyle.

WOULD YOU ATTEND A GAY WEDDG?

There is no way around the fact that a gay weddg ceremony is a celebratn of s. In the same way, we support a homosexual iend by helpg him out of the liftyle, not by signg a gut book at a celebratn of homosexualy.
