Transcription from radio/internet broadcast:
Pro-life advocates are decrying a grisly new outrage in Europe: Face lifts and cosmetic surgery using tissue from aborted babies are being offered at clinics in places such as Moscow and Rotterdam, and women from around the globe are flocking. In many cases women in third world nations are being paid up to $200.00 US to carry babies up to 12 weeks of pregnancy, when the unborn children are aborted and sold to the cosmetic clinics. An increasing number of these facilities are now springing up in popular vacation spots including Barbados and the Dominican Republic where regulation is spotty at best. Michael Harrington, SRN News.
But, you are so think-headed to even think about what I am saying to you. After you have read the Scriptures I posted, and prayed about it, get back to me.
I am not Satan. I am a born-again son of God... and yu can speak against sin all you want. It will be increased tomorrow, more than today! That is why Jesus died!
Do you really think God went out for lunch?
The thing that we all must remind ourselves of when reading this is that God will be Infinitely Merciful to these poor children, and Infinitely Just to the barbarians who murder and defile them.
I just forwarded on the articles to Father Paul Keenan who has a show on WABC radio Sunday mornings. Religion On The Line.
I think of Elizabeth Bathory.
In the 16th c. the Hungarian countess killed more than 600 young girls to bathe in their blood as a beauty treatment..
read later...
Oh yeah I listen to them all the time. I often call in. I am Martha from Hammonton.
Hi, .30 ... it hurts to be informed, doesn't it ... joining you in that prayer, and considering what more to do.
Deliver those who are being taken away to death,
And those who are staggering to slaughter,
Oh hold {them} back.
If you say, "See, we did not know this,"
Does He not consider {it} who weighs the hearts?
And does He not know {it} who keeps your soul?
And: "If you are slack in the day of distress, your strength is limited." Prov 24:11-12, 10
This is beyond sick on the part of the women aborting their babies and even more beyond sick on the part of the women trying to hang onto their youthful looks. This is evil, pure and simple.
Please. Stop bickering.
You are both members of the body of Christ. A healthy body does not attack itself.
However, pageonetoo, DaveTesla has a point.
If what the article says is true, then it should be condemned.
Would Christ not call upon his followers to condemn the sin itself? He told us to love the sinner, but hate the sin.
Abortion is a sin of the highest order. It denies the life of a child, a child who could be instrumental in God's Will.
One of the Ten Commandments was Thou Shalt Not Murder.
Abortion is murder, and should be condemned as such.
But no one is beyond forgiveness, and these people who commit these vile acts are not beyond Christ's forgiveness.
But likewise, he said to not waste your time on those who are unwilling and do not wished to repent.
"Do not give what is holy to dogs, and do not throw pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces."
Matthew 7:6
A Moral Absolutes ping.
Prepare to be horrified.
Cry or scream, I don't know which to do. These are the type of people who shoveled Jews into ovens during WW2 without flinching. Their consciences are seared.
Horrible.
And yet, I am not surprised.
With all that I have seen of the callousness for life lately, it was only a matter of time before life was used as a resource for the vain.
You will not win a single argument with one of the supporters of this abomination. You can shout at them, condemn them, even shoot them, but you are losing when you start by pointing at their sin. They already know they are sinners, if God is alive and working, as He promised. When you point to the sin, you lose.
The proper reaction for the church is to let people know about God and His saving grace. As they know Him, their hearts will be changed. Until then, you will only make them dig their heels!
How do you feel when somebody catches you doing something you probably feel wrong about, or are you perfected already? I've only made it to the forgiven stage. The rest is furnished by God
One of them is Honor thy father and mother. Have you ever said something about them to another in anger? Most of us have. Did you ever sneak something from your folks liquor cabinet, or take a buck from their wallet. Did you ever pick up a candy bar in the store without paying for it. How about taking apen from work? Many of us have done one or more of those at one time. At what age is it not sin? Are you forgiven for your sins? All of them? Can a murderer receive forgiveness?
Does God have a rank to sins? No, not that I can see. Christ called upon his followers to spread the news of Salvation. He paid the price with His Blood.
Abortion is no more a sin than any of the other of the ten, is it? It is just a currently exposed sin. There are lots more, even more heinous. How does divorce enter into the equation of honor, or sin? I can pose those questions all night, and provide the Scriptural answers for them. that won't domonstrate Christ to a sinner.
A site like FR is open to all peoples. Some are Jews, some are atheists, some are Christians of varied persuasions. Some may even be Moslem. Your strident calls don't attract men to Christ. They look at your attacks and shake their heads.
Christian activity is for Christians. Sinners want no part of that. Jesus said go into the world, not sit at the computer and complain about how bad things are getting.
They are gonna get worse, before He comes. How many people did you talk to about Jesus sacrifce on the Cross today? Did you explain that His story began with Creation and extends to Armegeddon? Did you tell them of His promises, or did you just spit on their shadows?
I will give this right back to you in that context:
"Do not give what is holy to dogs, and do not throw pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces."- Matthew 7:6
Dear God have mercy...†
Maybe August 22 isn't soon enough.
Bump.
