I heard testimonies from the explosion and what called my attention was a lady saying, "A bunch of people were standing together. One was thrown several meters by the explosion, and was seriously hurt or dead and another person standing right next to him or her had no injuries at all." This so reminded me of Jesus saying "Two people will be together. One will be left, the other will be taken." And just as sudden as this lighting bolt, so will be judgment falling upon us. We've been warned. We may choose to stay entertained, just like these poor people chose to stay at the beach when the rain began. The consequences may be irreversible.

this scripture comes to mind:

Psalm 12:7-8 Do thou, O LORD, protect us, guard us ever from this generation. On every side the wicked prowl, as vileness is exalted among the sons of men.

Just a quick note to add to your post… Melissa Ethridge didn't just choose to sing 'Imagine' at the Times Square New Year's celebration this year… I did the same as you about two years ago, streamed it on my computer about five minutes before the ball dropped, and "imagine" my surprise (sorry, bad joke) when, either before or after some black male performer (if memory serves me correctly) sang it, they announced that it was sung traditionally at New Years in Times Square. I checked YouTube and the earliest I located was 2008. I don't know for sure how or when it started, but it seems to have caught on. Needless to say, it was the last year I made it a point to watch the ball drop.

1 Give ear to my words, O Yahweh, consider my meditation.
2 Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my Elohim: for unto thee will I pray.
3 My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Yahweh; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.
4 For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee.
5 The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
6 Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: Yahweh will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.
7 But as for me, I will come into thy house in the multitude of thy mercy: and in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.
8 Lead me, O Yahweh, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face.
9 For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.
10 Destroy thou them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against thee.
11 But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.
12 For thou, Yahweh, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.

And the latter part of Jude…

17 But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Yahshua Messiah; 18 how that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts. 19 These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit. 20 But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, 21 keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Yahshua Messiah unto eternal life. 22 And of some have compassion, making a difference: 23 and others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.

Let us all join in saying come King Yahshua, come quickly! Hold fast to the faith that binds us all to Him. We serve not a president (or mayors), but our King. We serve not a nation, but His Kingdom.

Andrew

This law is the "first of its kind in the United States" as said by the news reporter.

Sexual immorality has a fluid nature with many offenders never staying in one state but moving around from sexuality to sexuality (eg: homosexuals switching into bisexuals) in their worldview for sexual freedom which often comes with experimentation/exploration.
It never really was about "being born like that". That's just a lie to deceive the vulnerable those who are naive or knowledgeable on this.

Camille Paglia, who is a practicing lesbian, nevertheless rejects the deception and outright lies that the media, medical, and scientific communities have used to advance the spread of homosexuality (the "born like that" lie). Read here for more on this fact:

The ones (sexually immoral) who really understand what they are doing acknowledge this openly and rarely confine themselves to a sexual "sin" as their unrestrained souls always want more.
The true cause for the rise of decadent sexualities is really a desire to be free from God and be the god of their own lives.
Romans 1:18-28

Lord Jesus but in the meantime of wait let us be about the Father's business and encourage one another
to stay in faith, hope and love and daily casting our cares on Jesus for He cares for us.
Bless You Joseph!
We're are one day closer.
