Love disciplines. Love does not sit idly, while someone puts themselves in danger. Or others. Sometimes, it is also loving to destroy.
When we know God's love, it is not all forgiving, unless you repent. It is not all loving, unless you repent. God's enemies will not receive His love. They will receive the Sword as judgment, and the Worm shall eat into them for eternity, in the prison of hell.
That is love. As, would God be loving, if He allowed evil to reign, and thereby create suffering for everyone? No one able to truly love, because we have redefined love as "No Rebuke"? The danger, of course, is that this current trend continues, and in God's wrath, He gives the nation over to its sin, like He did in Russia and China. And allow enormous suffering for a century, like He did in those nations. Which, only now are beginning to attain righteousness, and thereby receive some of their freedom.
Righteousness exalts a nation. Sin destroys it. Would it be loving for God to allow the nations to suffer for seventy years, with no rest, no hope, hatred of the very things which make life good? Is that love? As Homosexuals hate good. They, by their very being, convince others to renounce healthy love, and thereby gain hedonistic pleasure. Love is but chemicals. Love is but a fleeting desire. Love is but the dirty filth created from sodomy and illicit sex. That is love. And true love, it is scorned, berated, falsely said to not exist. It is hated, women are taught to hate their husbands, and men are taught to be slaves to their wives' whim. And there can be no happiness.
Ought God judge now? To remove the sin from us? Or, ought He succumb us to the sin, like a cancer, and we must bear the enormous pain for years on end without having it removed? For it is love which tells the patient, "Bear under this pain and burden, for your suffering is good and noble, the physicians will do nothing for it is not your choice"? Do any homosexuals wish to be so? Why not offer them redemption? Tell them they do not have to be what they are? They can be celibate, or even by miraculous grace have that abomination removed from their very DNA.
The danger, of course, is accepting homosexuality as normal, and thereby destroying marriage, love, trust, childbearing... having false accusations of rape which make no man and no woman able to love one another, having disloyal and domineering women who make their male consorts slaves, and their families slaves to their lack of judgment.
This is how the world was created by God. And given that men and women are built to follow God's law---because God is infinitely wise, and knows good better than we do ourselves---we can attain to true happiness by willingly following God's law. As, right now the world is miserable, on the brink of war; men and women are each other's enemies; races are warring amongst one another; nobody will forgive; theft, covetousness and lawlessness are abounding, for fools think these things are noble. And the danger, above all else, is that men are infinitely unhappy, and unwise, and cannot attain to true joy or satisfaction anymore on this Earth. Which is contrary to what the Earth was made for. Despite there being suffering for this world's being imperfect, let our suffering be a reminder of the things to come. And our joy made complete in the obedience to God's Law.
Mark 13:51Jesus saith unto them, Have ye understood all these things? They say unto him, Yea, Lord. 52Then said he unto them, Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old.
