Jewish literature talks of the time after God created Adam. The angel Michael brought Adam to the angels and commanded them to worship Adam because he bears the image of God. Lucifer said he would not because he would not worship any creature who was inferior to him. Because of this, Lucifer was vanquished from heaven and since then, he has been plotting to prevent humanity from attaining heaven.
He has always attempted to distort the image of God. In wars, murder, abortion and euthanasia, he destroys the image of God. Now, with divorce and same-sex marriage, he is also destroying the image of God.
It is interesting to note that churches that ordain women priests are also for same-sex marriage. Why not? The Church is often portrayed as a mother, a woman. The priest stands for the person of Jesus who is male. The relationship of Jesus and his Church is always seen as a marriage. By ordaining a female priest, these churches are in effect saying that it is alright to have a woman priest married to the Church, a woman. It is no wonder then that they are for same-sex marriage.
A few months ago, my wife and I celebrated our wedding anniversary. We had a romantic dinner in a Chinese restaurant for four. Four being my wife and myself and our two children. It was quite interesting that one of the waiters talked to us and pointed out that we had a son and daughter. He said that in Chinese, this is good.
In the Chinese language, each word is symbolized by a character. A combination of characters can create a new word. Very often, this combination of characters gives a meaning to the new word.
He then explained that by writing the word for woman beside the word for man, the resulting word is the word for good. He then mentioned that a man and a woman together forms something good. I jokingly asked him if there is a word that combined two men or two women together and he said, theres no word for two men or two women.
The union of man and woman is the image of God. This union, God first blessed before he commanded them to be fruitful and multiply.
