I will be attending my gay grand-daughters wedding this year. She is not a Christian so I cannot make her obey God's law which is for Christians. So any unsaved relative would have me at their wedding despite knowing that they sin, tell lies, cheat the tax man etc. Christians who would refuse despite sinning themselves are hypocrits. By showing her the love of God, she is responding and losing her objections to Christianity and will one day I hope, come to Christ. .
I don´t go to parties (I get bored of the music of things they normally do) and, if one of my lesbians friends invited me to any of her "weddings" I would attend, just to tell -at the moment- some one has said:

"Is there any ppl here who opposes that this vow be accomplished"

So I would say: Me!

Cause I don´t mind loving any woman who really loves me or accepts me, as the person as I am.

Who knows! Perhaps a single woman there couldn´t be totally blind to see me.

Ha! Ha!

Sounds like you love your grand daughter more than you want to indulge a desire to make a statement. That sounds like Jesus talking.

Speaking of the gay flag and other stuff..........and Obummer lighting up the White House last night to celebrate this junk.....


If the Confederate Flag is so very objectionable to so very many people and must be done away with..........what is the gay flag? Betcha WalMart and others will surely be raking in the profits from selling all things gay!

Would not go because there is nobody to bake the cake. I prefer Christian weddings but cake can be an inducement. Cake and good coffee might tempt me to go.

Not likely I would be invited but I've been to weddings where God was not invited but God forgave me for going any who.

Being invited to a Gay Marriage...Would you go?

...
The only time I could ever see myself going to something like this is if one of my siblings was gay, however, as they are all heterosexual, this kind of issue would not arise.

I would NOT go for anybody else outside my immediate family!

Well, homosexuality is something I simply can´t stand. Even before being so close to the Lord, seeing two men together was too much for me to bare. The big question for me, is: What if is it was a great friend or a relative? Although I see some brothers and sister´s point, saying that Jesus came for sinners, was with them, etc, I don´t believe He did that to show "Hey, it´s ok, you can sin...no problem!". He hates sin, but He´s merciful, His love is perfect.

So, would I go? In spite of loving the sinner, I can´t love the sin, and I don´t agree with something that God says is a sin and abomination. I´d be sad knowing they may feel bad for my decision, but I wouldn´t go.

So would you agree to go watch an armed robbery...since after all, you too are a sinner?

Great question, Cross! And I have three answers: no, maybe and yes: :)

Most gays where I live are liberals, and I deem liberals as enemies of society, thus I'm not friends with them that I would be asked to their weddings. A mutual no to them.

However, if patriotic, conservative, gay Christians were to ask me I would consider it. They get a maybe.

Lastly, I have nieces and nephews, and my love for them is unconditional. They know my love for the Lord and I know their love for Him. If any of them are gay and one day get married, I will absolutely attend their wedding and continue to love them with all my heart.
But would that not be a witness to others that you are affirming gay marriage?

What is the question they ask at weddings...."does anyone have any reason these two should not be joined"? speak now or forever hold your peace.... I would go if they allowed this challenge to a part of the ceremony.

You have a decidedly different definition of "conservative Christian" than I do.

The asking of that question is a matter of tradition and any response holds no legal weight to stop the proceedings. I have been to many weddings and not once has that question ever been raised.

Well...its not a legal point its a moral point and a point about what we as "Christians" are supposed to represent and approve.

And its always been my tradition to speak against darkness when I have a chance :)
