Don't shortchange thy neighbour

I know Christians are commenting on why we are 'obsessed' with being against same-sex 'marriage' and not other sins.
I pray that you understand that no one or rather no group is pushing aggressively for acceptance of divorce, greed, wrath, sloth, pride, envy, gluttony or even explicitly to be sexually immoral.
And I assure you, all of us are just as concerned about all matters in God's heart, just that you don't see it being done before your eyes.
No one issue that God is concerned about is above the other unless it is so obvious that people see it as not an issue.
Homosexuality is packaged as 'love' and 'freedom' and and they are attractive terms until you strip it to its barren form which is total brokenness and using of fig leaves to cover the hurt.
As true followers of Christ, we are causing great harm to people by endorsing it.
As disciples of Christ, we grieve the Holy Spirit by going against the word of God.
As ambassadors for Christ, we stumble and mislead people into thinking that this is love and freedom when we ourselves experience the love and freedom of God in the most authentic way.
We are shortchanging our loved ones.
We are deceiving ourselves outrageously.
It's not that we want to focus on homosexuality.
It's the fact that people think so little of this issue, care nothing of its consequences both in the spiritual and physical realm and thoughtless about the first casualty who is our innocent children.
The least that you and I can do now is to run to God's word and get the facts right about the heart of God regarding this matter.
