| The Terrible Threesome |
File this one under repulsive but true.
On Monday night Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office deputies arrested a Chandler couple and self-proclaimed “swingers” Shane Walker, 38, and Sarah Dae Walker, 33, along with their friend Robert Aucker, 29, of Gilbert, charging them with an attempt to commit an act of bestiality with a dog. (Yes, surprisingly enough, even in our day and age of acceptance and tolerance, bestiality is still illegal in a few states with Arizona being one of them where it is considered a felony.)
The threesome was arrested in an undercover operation when they arrived at the location where they thought they were just moments away from fulfilling their dreams – literally.
According to an article on AZcentral.com., Aucker tried to set up the illicit rendezvous via Craigslist after being told by Sarah Walker that she had dreams of having sex with a dog. The two men planned to watch the act as it was performed. And because immorality sometimes enjoys company, they even invited the owner of the dog to watch (too late to realize that the owner was actually an undercover detective).
As disturbing as this story is, what is even more disconcerting (and relative to this discussion), is the fact that all three admitted to taking part in this perverse activity! Where is the embarrassment or shame? The answer is found in the Bible. Romans 1:18-32 states:
18The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness,19 since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.
21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened.22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles.
24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another.25 They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.
26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.
28 Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. 29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31 they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. 32 Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.
We see that this behavior is nothing new and has been around since ancient times. All one has to do is go back to law given by God to Moses to realize that this was an issue millennia ago (See, Leviticus 18:23, 20:15-16). However, the Bible prophesies that we will see this kind of behavior occur more frequently and with more intensity during the Biblical End Times.
The Apostle Paul writes the following in 2 Timothy 3:1-5:
1 But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2 People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4 treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.
Therefore, look for this behavior to continue to increase as we approach nearer to the day of the Lord. It’s time to WAKE UP!
