Using this thread as a smackdown is counter-productive, don’t you think?
It’ reminds me of the parable of the Good Samaritan and the “Tsk-Tsk”ing of the so-called righteous ones.
I really do think we are doomed as a conservative movement. We don’t support goodness, we eat our own.
I’m not trying to smack down anyone. I’m just being realistic. I have a lot of compassion for kids who get themelves into this kind of situation, but it’s not necessary any more to get pregnant at an early age. There are preventions if you’re going to get stupid and have sex before marriage.
I’m talking here about God’s principles and what happens when we break them. It’s not my set of laws, it’s His. He loves us no matter how much we sin, but that doesn’t mean what we do is right in His eyes. Thank God for forgiveness.
b9, sin is sin. Christians need to be careful of how they behave in front of the world. The same doesn’t go for the secular world. God allows them to do their own thing, but for Christians this behaviour is dangerous to our souls. It’s not eating our own. It’s being aware that our behaviour is watched continually by others and we should be glorifying God with our lives. I pray this child will be brought up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord and will not repeat his parents’ sin. This happens over and over again in families. It sure has in mine.
