It's only a matter of time before gay marriage is legal in the U.S. in any state (assuming the Lord allows it to go that far).The Iowa Supreme Court this morning upheld a Polk County judge’s 2007 ruling that marriage should not be limited to one man and one woman.
The ruling, viewed nationally and at home as a victory for the gay rights movement and a setback for social conservatives, means Iowa’s 5,800 gay couples can legally marry in Iowa beginning April 24.

You can say that again!![]()

This is the nation that drove the Saints out and then persued them into the mountains, demanding that they give up their sacred, heaven revealed, marriage laws.
This is also a nation whose 'government' has allowed the slaughter of 50 million babies since 1973.![]()
This is the thanks that satan gives you. He rubs your nose in it.
For this is a day of warning, and not a day of many words. For I, the Lord, am not to be mocked in the last days. (D&C63:58)
God will put up with a lot but he will not put up with this. He will not be mocked.
I don't know... he is one very patient and merciful God... he gave Noah's people about 100 years to repent of their sins after his entire society was engrossed in inqiuity and all manner of wickedness and in 36 years, the U.S. has murdered 50 million babies and yet, this nation has continued to enjoy a high standard of living with no consequences for this abomination. Throw in the increasing levels of immorality, greed, lust, materialism, pride, apathy, ignorance, ingratitude, self-indulgence and this being an instant-gratification society and we're even luckier. However, I fear the time is soon coming when we're going to feel his wrath and it won't be pretty.

Joshua led the children of Israel into the promised land of Canaan after the Lord divided the waters of the Jordan River for them to cross on dry ground. This miraculous event was similar to the parting of the Red Sea by Moses, and surely was a convincing sign to all that he was now God's new chosen leader. The date of that event is precisely given in scripture using their calendar at that time: it was the 10th day of the first month (later called Nisan), forty years after the Exodus from Egypt (Joshua 4:19; 5:6). On that very day, the Lord commanded them to circumcise all of their males who had been born in the wilderness (Joshua 5:2). On the Hebrew calendar, that day 10 Nisan (Consecration) is one of two days each year which is especially appropriate for making a covenant with God, the other being the Day of Atonement. Correlating that day to our calendar implies that Joshua passed over Jordan on Mon 12 Apr 1422 BC.[1]
An extremely impressive anniversary of that date is approaching. Mon 6 Apr 2009 will mark exactly seventy jubilees on the (Perpetual) Hebrew Calendar since that date.[2] The year of the jubilee has been lost to modern Hebrews, but the results of my research indicate that the jubilee year occurred in that very year of entering the Promised Land. The Lord told Moses to begin counting sabbath years and the jubilee cycle when they entered the promised land (Lev. 25), which suggests beginning the count immediately at that time.[3] The jubilee is the fiftieth year after the cycle begins, but the cycle only has seven sets of seven years, or 49 years. Thus, the 50th year of the cycle is the same as the first year of the cycle.[4] That and several other events indicate that they indeed entered the promised land in a jubilee year.[5] The year 2009 marks 70 sets of 49-year jubilee cycles since 1422 BC.[6]
