Pride Goes Before Destruction | Tel Aviv - Sodom by the Sea

U. S. Embassy in Tel Aviv flies the gay pride flag
Over the past 40 years or so, there has been a wildly successful international campaign to desensitize people to the practice of homosexuality. It has been so successful that at this time we even see the leaders of some Christian churches and even entire denominations giving in to the agenda to normalize homosexual practice. They accept the agenda because they don't want to face any backlash by going against what has become the popular culture. And they twist scripture to justify their actions and by doing this, they entice others to join them.

In several places in the Bible it speaks of an end times apostasy.
But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!  - 2 Timothy 3:1-4

The homosexual agenda is not the sum total of the falling away, but it is part of it. This can be seen in the arrogance of their actions. Homosexuality is a sin. For thousands of years this has been clear to those with any familiarity with the scriptures. Those who call this evil good do so because they are determined to do what they want and ignore the clear command of God. Psalms 2 describes this very well.
Why do the nations rage, and the people plot a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, Against the Lord and against His Anointed, saying, “Let us break Their bonds in pieces and cast away Their cords from us.”               Psalms 2:1-3

They know what is right and what is wrong but refuse to be bound by God's word. They are in open rebellion against God.

With this in mind, we report on the gay pride parade held in the most gay friendly city in the world, the Israeli city of Tel Aviv. More than 100,000 persons are reported to have attended this year's event. It is an opportunity for them to openly celebrate their sinful sexual practice by compounding it with the sin of pride.
Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall. - Proverbs 16:18

Jesus taught that this sort of rebellion would bring destruction.
Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed. - Luke 21:28-30

Over 100,000 celebrate gay pride in Tel Aviv

Sodom by the Sea
Tel Aviv was draped in rainbow colors Friday, and many of the city’s streets were closed off as over 100,000 revelers took part in the annual Gay Pride parade.

Loud music blasted along the parade’s route, thick with people dancing to the beats and waving rainbow flags. Drag queens wearing heavy makeup, dresses with sequins and high heels bounced along to the music alongside scantily clad men and women.

The city’s Gay Pride parade is the largest event of its kind in the Middle East. Tel Aviv is one of the few places in the Middle East where gays feel free to walk hand-in-hand and kiss in public. The city has emerged as one of the world’s most gay-friendly travel destinations in recent years, in sharp contrast to the rest of the region.

Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said more than 100,000 people took part. Loud music blasted along the parade’s route, thick with people dancing to the beats and waving rainbow flags.
