What is it about Sodomy & 'Pride'?

The month of June has been designated by the sodomite movement as 'Pride Month'. June is supposedly chosen to commemorate the Stonewall riots, which occurred at the end of June 1969. As a result, many 'pride' events are held during this month to promote and further the sodomite agenda. 

However, what is it about Sodomy & 'Pride'? The two terms are well placed side by side. Interestingly the Word of God, which is ever up-to-date, informs us that the sin of pride was prevalent among the sodomites in Sodom, cf. Ezekiel 16:49&56: Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy; For thy sister Sodom was not mentioned by thy mouth in the day of thy pride.

The Bible has the following to say about 'Pride':
1. 'Pride' is the mark of having no thought of God, cf. Psalm 10:4: The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts.

2. 'Pride' in the heart is deceiving, cf.  Obadiah verse 3: The pride of thine heart hath deceived thee, thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high; that saith in his heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground?

3. 'Pride' leads to a downfall, cf. Proverbs 16:18: Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.

4. 'Pride' is not of God, cf. 1 John 2:16: For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

5. We are commanded to hate all sin including the sin of 'pride', cf. Proverbs 8:13: The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.


Talk about being condemned out of your own mouth!!!

Timely words from C H Spurgeon on hating sin

Taken from Morning & Evening

Morning, 29th May
Thou hatest wickedness. Psalm 45:7

“Be ye angry, and sin not.” There can hardly be goodness in a man if he be not angry at sin; he who loves truth must hate every false way. How our Lord Jesus hated it when the temptation came! Thrice it assailed him in different forms, but ever he met it with, “Get thee behind me, Satan.” 

He hated it in others; none the less fervently because he showed his hate oftener in tears of pity than in words of rebuke; yet what language could be more stern, more Elijah-like, than the words, “Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows’ houses, and for a pretence make long prayer.” He hated wickedness, so much that he bled to wound it to the heart; he died that it might die; he was buried that he might bury it in his tomb; and he rose that he might forever trample it beneath his feet. 

Christ is in the Gospel, and that Gospel is opposed to wickedness in every shape. Wickedness arrays itself in fair garments, and imitates the language of holiness; but the precepts of Jesus, like his famous scourge of small cords, chase it out of the temple, and will not tolerate it in the Church. So, too, in the heart where Jesus reigns, what war there is between Christ and Belial! 

And when our Redeemer shall come to be our Judge, those thundering words, “Depart, ye cursed” which are, indeed, but a prolongation of his life-teaching concerning sin, shall manifest his abhorrence of iniquity. As warm as is his love to sinners, so hot is his hatred of sin; as perfect as is his righteousness, so complete shall be the destruction of every form of wickedness. O thou glorious champion of right, and destroyer of wrong, for this cause hath God, even thy God, anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
