Dear Editor,
I read with interest in the newspapers and saw on the news about the ‘’Homosexuality and Gay Rights Bill’’ that many of our politicians and human rights activists are trying to pass in Parliament. While many in CariCom are trying to establish the ‘’Gay-rights & Lesbian Rights Bill to be passed in its member states, including our country, they have failed to realise that passing such a bill is a direct violation of God’s Laws from Holy Scriptures and we will face some severe consequences from God Himself just like Sodom and Gomorrah when God destroyed them completely because they broke laws He gave to his prophet, Moses.
Those who are clamoring to pass this evil bill are trying to corrupt the morals of the world including our country.
We are living in the midst of a tremendous moral breakdown in our society; even heterosexuals and married couples are living in an open marriage lifestyle of ‘free love’ in all forms of sexual immorality such as fornication, adultery, incest, bi-sexualism, prostitution etc. that has destroyed the family value and moral principles of God’s words from Holy Scriptures. It’s very sad when innocent children are born into immoral families whose lives are destroyed by immoral parents by incest, rape and even murder. We can reflect on the Queens College teenager, Neesa Gopaul, whose young brilliant life was snuffed out.
Homosexuality and lesbianism are sexual activity between persons of the same sex. If this ‘’Gay-Rights & Lesbian rights Bill’’ should be made mandatory then it will redefine the laws of marriage between a man and a woman ordained by God our Creator since the beginning of time. It simply means two men or two women living in a gay or lesbian relationship can walk into any church from any religion and legally get married just like a man and woman. What is marriage? Marriage is a sacred institution ordained by God between a man and a woman not between a man and a man or woman and woman.
When God created human beings, He made them male and female. The Bible’s account of creation establishes human beings as persons who possess a specific sexual identity. ‘’So God Created Man in his own image……male and female he created them’’(Genesis 1:27)
‘’Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh’’ (Genesis 2:24).
The scripture did not say a man shall be joined to a man or a woman to a woman. Man and woman was created by God for each other and their relationship is ordered by God. That is why gays will never be able to give birth to a child. It was never is God’s plan to corrupt human beings but we now have some impudent law makers who are trying to violate God’s Laws, I wish to God that we are not wiped out by a tsunami or earthquake lest we anger the Lord our God whose wrath is beyond limits.
We should ask ourselves many questions before even thinking to ever entertain such a Bill in Parliament. We should ask: Do we fear God? Do we believe in God? Do we believe in God’s Holy Scriptures? On whose authority are we trying to change or violate God’s divine and eternal laws?
The Bible says that to lie with a person of the same sex is an abomination. In Leviticus 18:22 ‘’Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind, it is an abomination.’’
Homosexuality is an insult against God. The Bible message offers hope to those who practise sodomy but before one can be delivered he/she must acknowledge his/her sin; they must honestly desire deliverance, they must want to do what is right in the sight of God. They can be cured by prayer and counselling but they must have an intense desire to change.
In conclusion, the greatest error a nation can ever engage in is to implement laws that will violate the laws of God.
I close with this interesting scripture: ‘’ 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 I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land’’ (11 Chronicles 7:14)
It’s my sincere hope that Our President and all the other members of Parliament throw this homosexual bill into the garbage least we implement more curses and judgment of God upon us. I am calling upon The Guyana Evangelical Association and all other religious organizations to remove this corrupt bill from our nation. May God open our eyes to his divine truth.
