The correct answer is because government is ordained only for the good of the people by the De Jure Highest Power (e.g. God) who supersedes government. By abdicating your political responsibility, you literally hand it over to Satan to control and exercise in his battle against both God and toward the corruption of humanity. Obviously, this violates chapters of Biblical principles and God's will.
John 3:16-21 [SUP]16 [/SUP]For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. [SUP]17 [/SUP]For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. [SUP]18 [/SUP]He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. [SUP]19 [/SUP]And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. [SUP]20 [/SUP]For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. [SUP]21 [/SUP]But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Everybody knows verse 16. But how many goes on to read the rest? Those in sin are condemned already. Many stay condemned because they love the darkness. There's a difference between judging and restating/paraphrasing what's already been judged. If I state what sin is according to the Bible, and that someone is going to hell for it if they don't repent, I'm only stating what the Word has already judged.

And I am afraid you are not listening, Look at how Jesus acting in his ministry. He hung around the sinners the adulterers, the tax collecters the greedy, the prostitutes. When asked about this he responded by saying something along the lines of how only the sick need a doctor. He always acted out of love and compassion, always there to give a helping hand to those who needed it. He said to the sinners in a loving way to turn from their wicked ways, most of them repented and become followers of christ. Do you notice his way of teaching and saving? Love. patience and humblness.
I thought I had made my position very clear on this matter. I am no speaking against homosexuality because I hate the homosexual but because I do not want to see them lost. The fact of the matter is that if they do not repent, they will remain lost. Is this not love? It seems that all any one wants to know about Jesus is that he is Love. So he is. They seem somehow to overlook the fact that he is the vengeful God of judgement.
Jesus also told them the stop sinning:
John 5:14 [SUP]14 [/SUP]Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee.
John 8:11 [SUP]11 [/SUP]She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.

It was not misleading at all. Homosexuality is the greatest threat to the moral stability of our nation that we face. If you read my earlier post on Romans 1 regarding the four stages of social declination you will see that this country is in the third stage of that decline. This is a very serious problem. This does not mean that I hate the homosexual community or that I wish any of them ill. My job is simply to preach the gospel.
I have said before that man kind never learns from it's mistakes. Over and over and over the same mistakes are made by mankind. I once wondered what if we somehow obtained super powers? I then realized we would destroy the world ourselves, mankind by nature is power hungry and is always plotting against each other, we cannot even handle the weapons we have now.
