The Glory of Sex
Needing a Creed
The church of the 21st century seems to be faced with the theological question of what God’s purpose is for human sexuality. Other generations have debated soteriology, Biblical veracity, sacraments, and furthest back the early church debated whether Gentile believers needed circumcision (Acts 15:6-29). Through all of these historic debates, one common trait is that the result is some form of creed or confession. At first the creeds were defining Christianity, and as history has gone on they have had a tendency to define types of Christianity.
Nevertheless, the 21st century, I believe will be a century in which the church must decide upon the matter of human sexuality.

The Real State of the Union (Part Third)
This is the third part in my series addressing several of the issues raised by President Obama in his recent State of the Union Address.

As such, it needs to be treated that way; as a Christian, I do not propose the criminalization of homosexuality. However, it must be understood by our magistrates that though they ought not to criminalize these aberrant forms of sexuality, neither should they sanction and bless them.
