  <abstract>In recent court decisions, the homosexual activist movement has made huge strides toward legalizing same-sex marriage in the United States. With the help of a handful of judges, a tiny fraction of our population is on the verge of redefining the institution of marriage for all of us. This goes beyond politicsit is a moral issue. And in this book, D. James Kennedy and Jerry Newcombe offer a Christian response. The Bible is clear: Homosexuality is a sin, and marriage is for one man and one woman. Kennedy and Newcombe use Scripture to show what God says about homosexuality and marriage. They also examine statistics and case studies that dispel many of the myths about homosexuality. They appeal to us to make an organized response to same-sex marriagewhile maintaining a loving attitude toward homosexuals as human beings. These days its not politically correct to say that homosexuality is wrong. But its not cultures responsibility to determine right and wrong. There is only one Authority who can do that, and it is up to us to stand behind His Word.</abstract>
