A Brief Sexual Catechism
1. How was mankind created? We were created by God in the image of God, male and female together (Gen. 1:27). 2. Who is the author of marriage? When God presented the first bride, our mother Eve, to Adam, He was establishing the first marriage (Gen. 2:22). 3. After the first marriage, how are marriages …
Some Festive Juxtapositions
In the web uproar following my comments about sodomy being a far worse sin than slavery, we have noticed a few festive juxtapositions. I am merely a ten-year-old boy throwing a few pine cones at the homohive, and so it is understandable that I follow the subsequent behavior of the bees with some interest and …
