Alabama For Marriage Rally Draws Hundreds to Montgomery
Contact: Tom Ford, 334-220-2319
 
MONTGOMERY, Ala., June 8, 2015 /Christian Newswire/ -- As the Supreme Court prepares to rule on marriage, around 800 Christians gathered at the Alabama Capitol Saturday to affirm God's definition of marriage between one man and one woman. Sanctity of Marriage Alabama organized the rally.
 
Joe Godfrey (ALCAP) opened saying that God's Word defines marriage as between one man and one woman and that all sex outside of marriage is sin.
 
"God defines love," said Aaron Motley, and "when man redefines love and gives it a new definition it is called a perversion – your personal version."
 
William Green thanked the thirty protesters for coming while the crowd gave them water. As an African-American, he was adamant: "…no one has ever come out of the closet as black or white. The only things that come out of the closet are choices."
 
John Eidsmoe stated that under the Supremacy Clause and the 10th Amendment, authority over marriage is reserved to states.
 
The speakers agreed: same-sex relationships are not really about marriage, love, civil rights, or law.
 
Congressman Gary Palmer said, "When you see people trying to force Islamic clerics to perform same-sex marriage, it might be a war on religion, but right now it's a war on Christianity."
 
John Killian exhorted the crowd to pray, "Remember that there is a God in heaven who rules and reigns!"
 
Eunie Smith (Eagle Forum, Alabama) warned parents about the blatant LGBT agenda in our public schools designed to change religious and moral beliefs and encouraged Christian parents to ensure that their children are taught "a Christian worldview."
 
Speakers called on Christians to pray, stand strong, get involved, and repent.
 
Bishop Kyle Searcy preached the mercy, grace, and forgiveness offered to all sinners through Jesus Christ.
 
Kayla Moore (Foundation for Moral Law), wife of Chief Justice Roy Moore, applauded the Supreme Court of Alabama, drawing loud cheers from the crowd. "Chief Justice Moore is not here," she said. "It's called judicial ethics -- something that Ruth Bader-Ginsburg needs to learn."
 
Nick Williams called on Christians to obey God rather than men in the days ahead.
 
"We're fighting for our children and their children," said Representative Will Ainsworth.
 
God works in "one heart at a time, one household at a time, one church at a time," Tom Ford closed.
 
Sanctity of Marriage Alabama is part of a grassroots effort across Alabama to unite Christians around God's definition of marriage.
