TGCA Executive Director Akos Balogh talks to Rosaria Butterfield about what Australian Christians should expect in the wake of the Same-Sex Marriage plebiscite.
If you watched Q&A on Monday night, you may be left wondering why is Australia having a discussion about marriage at all? It’s not because reason shows us that marriage should remain between a man and a woman, and it’s not because of impassioned stories from gay couples, but because we were told by two Q&A panelists that we ought to get rid of marriage altogether.
Showing love and compassion to those who disagree with us, whilst not abandoning our convictions: that’s what Jesus requires of any who would follow Him.
'Christians should be known as people who say ‘yes’: Yes to God’s good order. Yes to the rights of the most vulnerable (children). Yes to a Biblical view of gender. Yes to stable marriages across society, and yes to religious freedom for all. This means that we have to say ‘no’ – no to anything that weakens God’s good design of marriage.' - Akos Balogh
