Daily Broadside | Smut No Longer Hidden in Brown Paper Wrappers But Presented Live and in Public to Children

I assume that many of you have seen the reports of “Pride” events around the states. All are little more than wicked displays of hedonism. Content warning for links to the following videos.

Overtly-sexual performances and entertainment with children present at a Pride event in Arlington, TX.

The event above took place “directly next to a big church in Arlington. This, of course, is not a surprise; a frequent strategy of the organizers of these events is to incorporate faith and religion in their blasphemous performances” (emphasis mine).

Here, a street preacher is surrounded, mocked and belittled by members of a “Pride” event who “woof” like dogs and claim they are “born this way.”

Back to the children. It’s clear that these sexually obsessed perverts are determined to force their version of morality on the next generations of children. Listen to this crowd in the annual New York City Drag March chant, “We’re here, we’re queer, we’re coming for your children!”

We all agree they are grooming our children.

Intentionally.

Methodically.

Without apology.

I look at this and think, “How much more can we tolerate?” Seriously. I mean, how low can we allow it to go? We’re at a severe level of deviancy and licentiousness. This is a Sodom-and-Gomorrah kind of wickedness.

Before they had gone to bed, all the men from every part of the city of Sodom—both young and old—surrounded the house. They called to Lot, “Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them.”

God destroyed that city for its sexual deviancy.

Worst of all, I’m aghast not only with the flaunting of public nudity (isn’t that illegal?), but with the fact that parents are exposing their children to this debauchery. This isn’t about “rights” and a hand wave away because parents “know what’s best” for their children. What has happened to their sense of propriety? How is it that they’ve become accessories to the destruction of the youngest and most innocent of minds and bodies?

The Church cannot be party to this. In fact, the Church should be leading the charge against sexual deviancy. Unfortunately, many churches embrace homosexuality and show up to “Pride” parades to show “love and support” for those who practice homosexuality. It’s “loving,” you see, to support such people. We don’t want to come across as hateful and judge-y now, do we?

I imagine a day when thousands upon thousands of Christians and like-minded Americans show up and outnumber participants and audiences at these crass and tasteless spectacles. Be prepared to be arrested, though, for causing a disturbance or for engaging in “hate” speech.

We should not be afraid to exhibit righteous indignation and, frankly, outrage over the clear degeneracy being displayed. God said, “The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and their sin so grievous that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know.”

It was as bad as the outcry that reached him. And there were consequences.

Do you suppose the outcry against America is currently “so great and our sin so grievous” before a holy God? Why should we think we’re somehow immune to a similar fate?

“But Lot’s wife looked back, and she became a pillar of salt.”
Genesis 19:26

I remember discovering that this is the whole “story” of Lot’s wife and being amazed that it’s only one verse. But there is so much packed into it.

Lot and his family were told not to look back: “Flee for your lives! Don’t look back, and don’t stop anywhere in the plain! Flee to the mountains or you will be swept away!” (v.17).

That “look back” apparently demonstrated the depth of longing in her heart for her life in Sodom and, whether because she dragged her feet or was punished in that moment, it led to her death. She was consumed by the burning sulfur rained down on Sodom and Gomorrah (v24) and she became a pillar of salt, a monument to disobedience.

We get further insight and confirmation as Jesus tells us of his eventual return in Luke 17:26-30:

“It was the same in the days of Lot. People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building. But the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.

“It will be just like this on the day the Son of Man is revealed. On that day no one who is on the housetop, with possessions inside, should go down to get them. Likewise, no one in the field should go back for anything.

Remember Lot’s wife! Whoever tries to keep their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life will preserve it.”

This gives us some insight into why Lot’s wife looked back: she was trying to keep her life. She didn’t want to let go of it. But she couldn’t have it both ways.

It’s the same, Jesus says, with following him. Either you let go of your old life and follow, or you hold on to it and are destroyed.

Remember Lot’s wife!
