The Prime Minister has faced a backlash from Christian leaders after stating in his speech at the Conservative party conference that he backed legalising homosexual ‘marriage. Mr Cameron said in his speech: ‘We're consulting on legalising gay marriage. To anyone who has reservations, I say: Yes, it's about equality, but it's also about something else: commitment. His comments on homosexual ‘marriage’ were picked up on by a number of church leaders. The Most Rev Peter Smith, Archbishop of Southwark, said: ‘Whilst we welcome the Prime Minister's support of marriage, the proposed redefinition of marriage cannot be right. Marriage by its very nature is between a man and a woman and it is the essential foundation of family life. The state should uphold this common understanding of marriage rather than attempting to change its meaning.’ A spokesman for the Church of England said ‘The Church’s view remains of marriage as the life-long union between a man and a woman.’

Pray: for Mr Cameron to recognise the dichotomy of his view and to ensure the Government’s positive support for heterosexual marriage. (Gen.1:27-28)
