I think some of you have stepped away from the real issue here; the persecution on Christians, or people in general. The verbal attacks on each other is silly, divisive, and non-sensical. I too have to agree that we don't need to watch this kind of stuff to "man up". I think of a song we sing in church and one of the lines "Norwalk my heart for what breaks yours", and that my friend, should be enough. It s only through much prayer, unity, love, and perceverance, that we can begin to fight and she'd light on this human rights violation.
Great Sermon! Great sermon! I really like the fact that the pastor takes an fair and biblical approach to the topic. The only issue is that some of the people of the congregation don't let him finish his points before assuming he's saying something else. I do see this as a good thing though as it's pricking to the conscience. :) Too many pastors try to cater to their congregation, but this one is diligently trying to please God.
We read in the Old Testament where babies were being cut from the womb and think, how barbaric, only in a day when people were barbaric and human rights were unheard of. Then we name the baby a fetus and do it in a surgical atmosphere and think we 've come so far in human rights and general civilization. It is worse for today then it was yesterday. We now know our DNA is unique from the first cell, God told us from the beginning we were knit together in our mothers womb. It doesn't say we were an accident tossed together carelessly. We should be ashamed and disgusted beyond all measure to even contemplate termination of an unborn child.
