Recent discussions following the Grammy award weddings prompted some thought about who God is, and about his view on what relationship is supposed to be about. And so I ask the question:
Of the two scenarios below, which would the Christian God of love prefer? Which represents this God better?
A heterosexual couple who are married in the church, treat each other with disdain, lie and cheat and dishonor one another, hide what little light they embrace under a bushel, and show the world that marriage is a bitter pill to swallow.
or
A same sex couple who treat each other with respect, live life together joyfully, mutually commit to truth and fidelity, study God's word together, worship together, serve their church together, and act as bearers of light and life, and carriers of the good news.Obviously not all opposite sex couples fit the first profile, nor same sex couples the second. But there are examples of both types, in both types. So of these two, which better matches the Biblical example of Godly love?
