In a world of so-called
tolerance, it seems as if
the Christian gospel is the
only truth not to be
tolerated. Increasingly,
pressure is coming to us from our culture to keep
quiet about our faith. Our
rights to proclaim the
gospel are being resisted.
But Manny Pacquiao,
Christian Filipino boxer and congressman, has
reportedly disagreed with
President Barack Obama ‘s support of
redefining marriage to include same-sex couples,
and has insisted people
should always put God’s
word first. After Obama vocalized that he was in support of gay
marriage earlier this week,
Pacquiao was adamant that
the president had got it
wrong. In an interview with
the National Conservative Examiner while training in Los
Angeles, Calif., Pacquiao spoke
about the need for society to
put “God’s words first.” The boxer quoted Leviticus
20:13 when referring to the
president’s decision to
advocate for same-sex
marriage. “If a man lies with a man as
one lies with a woman, both
of them have done what is
detestable,” Pacquiao told the
Examiner. “They must be put
to death; their blood will be on their own heads.” However, Obama has
attempted to explain his
reasoning for supporting a
redefinition of marriage, using
the Golden Rule of loving
your neighbor as justification for ignoring other verses
condemning homosexuality in the Bible. “Do unto others as you would
have them do to you,” the
president said in an ABC News
report. “At a certain point
I’ve just concluded that for
me personally it is important for me to go ahead and affirm
that I think same-sex couples
should be able to get married.” www.colindye.com/2012/05/14/manny-pacquiao-uses-bible-to-rebuke-obamas-support-for-gay-marriage/#ixzz1uqOvwz2S

A boxer?
Holy God!
I believe that Obama applies the Word of God in the Bible
"Love one another"
