BARACK OBAMA INTERVIEW WITH RICK WARREN 2008 Rick Warren: “Define Marriage.” Barack Obama: “I believe that marriage is the union between a man and a woman. Now for me as a Christian -- for me as a Christian, it is also a sacred union. God is in the mix.”
BARACK OBAMA 2012 “I’ve been going through an evolution on this issue….over the course of several years, as I talk to friends and family and neighbors. When I think about – members of my own staff who are incredibly committed, in monogamous relationships, same-sex relationships, who are raising kids together.
BARACK OBAMA 2012 When I think about those soldiers or airmen or marines or – sailors who are about there fighting on my behalf and yet, feel constrained, even now that Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell is gone, because – they’re not able to commit themselves in a marriage.
BARACK OBAMA 2012 At a certain point, I’ve just concluded that for me personally, it is important for me to go ahead and affirm that I think same-sex couples should be able to get married.” http://www.equip.org/video/defending-marriage-dr-jay-richards-interview-part-1/

QUOTE Read in context, the commands against same-sex relations in Leviticus 18 and 20 mesh perfectly with the moral order of creation presented in Genesis 1– 2, correctly interpreted by Jesus in Matthew 19: 4– 5. This indicates that Moses meant for the intentions of the men of Sodom to be viewed as flagrant violations of God’s created order, as can be seen from the way later biblical authors interpret Genesis 19.
