Bill Clinton and DOMA: Times Have Changed

Former president Bill Clinton has come out in favor of reversing the Defense of Marriage Act, a measure he signed into law in 1997 which protects marriage as between one man and one woman. He says things have changed. They certainly have.
The Supreme Court hears arguments on this on March 27. I predict they will overturn the law and here's why. Any nation that won't protect unborn babies is not going to be constrained by God's will when it comes to marriage. The court and the culture no longer listen to or fear God and He is giving us over, just as Paul said He would.
What did you expect the end of days to look like? Scripture doesn't define them as pleasant. Read what Paul says to Timothy about it in 2 Timothy 3. Same-sex marriage is a part of it, but then God also hates divorce and liars. Even Christians are divorcing in large numbers so we have little moral authority to tell unconverted sinners what they should be doing.
Don't worry, though. Everything is right on schedule. God reigns, not the Supreme Court.
