It is an attempt to erase the blueprint that God has provided for us: Without conjugal, complementary marriage, understanding of the Gospel is dimmed. It stands in stark opposition to the eternal intention of Christ who has made us clean through the shedding of His Blood in order to “… present to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless … ” (Ephesians 5:27 See also Revelation 19:8). The Cross is the great symbol of God’s people, a declaration in every Church and in every Christian home of our deep, living connection to Him who died that we might live, that we are created for Christ and that through the power of His Blood and Cross, we are made new creations in Him.īut the presence of the rainbow flag as a sign of “marriage equality” is meant to supplant the Cross and dilute its meaning. While these are intended as signs of inclusiveness and tolerance, their presence is in reality a sign of the unabashed brazenness of the ancient enemy of Christ planting his flag wherever he can to claim God’s people for himself. We’ve also watched as the rainbow colors have infiltrated some churches and denominations, small and large. It’s not just the government that has been overtaken by the rainbow flag. In our day, we witness the attempted obliteration of gender, complementarity, and conjugal marriage as a means of undermining both the preaching of and experience of the Gospel. In particular, he seeks to deceive passive, dull-minded, unaware believers: “But I am afraid that as the serpent deceived Eve by its cunning, your thoughts will be led astray from a sincere and pure devotion to Christ” (2 Corinthians 11:3). This is his purpose, to deceive and distract all from the magnificent glory of the Gospel, of God’s eternal plan for humanity. He is “The “ancient serpent … who leads the whole world astray” (Revelation 12:9). “We know that we are God’s children, and that the whole world lies under the power of the evil one,” (1 John 5:19). Scripture makes it clear that Satan seeks dominion over every heart, every government: It also stands as a warning of judgment and doom for those who oppose this occupying force, who stand against this ideological colonization, meant to demoralize and create a sense of hopeless, totalitarian inevitability, of surrender and defeat. And that as ruler he maintains his own brand of influence over the United States: over political leaders, even those in the highest realms of government over judges in the highest court in the land and many lower courts over media and many thought and opinion leaders over many major corporations, and over academia at every level.
Underlying it all is a mocking proclamation of the ruler of this world that reason, natural law and the common good can be impeached and banished in favor of sophistry and the institutionalizing of the untenable, outrageous notion of genderless marriage. This is what dominion - the hostile ideological takeover of a great nation by a foreign occupying force - looks like: The Cambridge Dictionary defines dominion as “control over a country or people, or the land that belongs to a ruler.” It was a sign of victory, and more than that, it was a declaration of dominance. A senior official at the White House tweeted that this was a declaration that “Love wins!”īut there is clearly something more behind the rainbow-colored White House. Many would say that the White House bathed in the colors of the rainbow flag on June 26, 2015, was nothing more than a sign of celebration, a well-deserved message of congratulations to the LGBT community after the Supreme Court’s ruling.
