“Ashteroth (pornography, Sexuality divorced from context of marriage). “
Ashteroth in the Bible also refers to Ashtoreth, Ishtar, Istar, maybe Ishtaar, Asherah, Astarte and also ‘Queen of Heaven’(Jeremiah 7:18, 44:19)
Ashteroth and all the similar names would be the fertility goddess consort of Molech.
Queen of Heaven in OT Jeremiah refers to this same fertility goddess not the Blessed Virgin Mary as some Christian sects/denominations teach.
Luke 1:46-49
And Mary said: “My soul glorifies the Lord 47 and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, 48 for he has been mindful of the humble state of his servant. From now on all generations will call me blessed, 49 for the Mighty One has done great things for me— holy is his name.
True indeed. The ‘gods’ are demons who take on new forms as cultures come and go. My only point was that the the so called Sexual revolution and abortion holocause it led to, are the modern forms of Baal, Ashteroth and Moloch worship. We moderns are idolaters as mush as the Ancients.
“Ashteroth (pornography, Sexuality divorced from context of marriage). “
Actually procreation can be a false god also.
As in IVF(in vitro fertilization) takes procreation away from the unitive purpose of marriage. In addition, unless your Octomom, IVF leads to the destruction of embryos(soul infused humans). I dont know all or much about Asheteroth, the practices and all of the causes/favors to which people worshipped.
But the sins indicated above are not inclusive about the things that need to be preached about in the illicit sexuality part. Those who get sterilized are sinning in a grave manner against God.
Embryonic stem cell research is a process that multiplies and divides and kilsl embryos. Supporting medical charities that pursue research and cures is supporting embryonic stem cell research(the killing of embryos/souls). Virtually every medical charity funds this kind of research presently.
But as a group, Christians think when they donate money to these things that they are doing Gods work of giving alms and supporting others. The secular, the evil, the culture of death is intertwined into what we think is our duty towards Christian charity.
All of these things are part of Catholic doctrine(written, Catechism and such), which doesnt get preached much if at all from the Catholic pulpit nowadays or transmitted effectively , but it is in the doctrine and teachings. Most church-going Catholics give to these kind of charities out of ignorance. More so, Protestants in a generalized way dont really touch on these things either in either written or oral form. Most Bible based churches eschew things like Catechisms, written doctrines and such. To them the truth is so much simpler than that and contained within the Bible. Each new pastor chooses and decides on his own and in his own time about these things and how much of what he thinks is appropriate and not off putting and digestible to his audience. Much like a river that is a mile wide and impressive, but only a few inches deep, modern man is left in many cases being unaware of very grave sin in our technologically advanced modern society where secularism, evil and death has intertwined with many things... charities, medical advances and medical choices and of course, politics.
