Gay Flag Church

America made history today by legalizing same sex marriage in all 50 states, and many Christian leaders, including Franklin Graham, Donnie McClurkin, and more, spoke out on social media to share their thoughts and the Bible's correlations.

Popular Gospel singer and Pastor Donnie McClurkin shared extensively on the Supreme Court ruling. The pastor has admittedly confessed battling with homosexuality but maintained that God's word has the final say.

"SUPREME COURT RULES & OVERTURNS BAN ON SAME SEX MARRIAGE...MAKES SAME SEX MARRIAGE CONSTITUTIONAL!!!

THE CHURCH NOW STANDS AGAINST IT OR BOWS ITS KNEE TO IT!!! WHAT WILL YOU DO???

We've just received the answer from man's Supreme Court....we already received the answer from GOD!! With NO REGARD to what the Supreme Court of MAN decrees...no matter what MY past was or feelings & struggles ...GOD has set the only standard for marriage to be between man and woman...in biology, in physiology, in history, biblically & scripturally and that..I will NEVER speak against!"

Reverend Franklin Graham, son of mega evangelist Billy Graham, also took to Facebook with his thoughts.

"The Supreme Court of the United States has ruled today that same-sex marriage is legal in all 50 states. With all due respect to the court, it did not define marriage, and therefore is not entitled to re-define it.

Long before our government came into existence, marriage was created by the One who created man and woman"”Almighty God"”and His decisions are not subject to review or revision by any manmade court. God is clear about the definition of marriage in His Holy Word: 'Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh' (Genesis 2:24)," he wrote. "I pray God will spare America from His judgment, though, by our actions as a nation, we give Him less and less reason to do so."

CBN host Pat Robertson like wise shared on Twitter, "Marriage is a sacrament of the Christian church but it's now been taken by SCOTUS to apply to those who aren't qualified," he said, adding, "Christians should feel that they are losing a vital part of their freedom"

Actor Stephen Baldwin Tweeted, "Today it's official ... I am choosing to to my best to represent love, peace & forgiveness ! Gods ways are not our ways & from this day forward we will see the manifestation of what must come to pass for Jesus to return. It will be painful but do not lose heart ! Trust in the Lord !! Pray for our children to know the truth !!!"

Others on Twitter also chimed in on the marriage equality ruling.
