"&c . . .The very woman who attended Mass regularly and adhered to the catholic church...yet she believes in Abortion for woman...that homosexuals have a right to marry.....at the same time cannot explain what she believes...."

Where is God in all of this in the lives of believers? Where is the work of the Holy Spirit (Philippians 1:6; 2:13)? Where is the teaching principle of grace (Titus 2:11-13)?

Sure, we all know there are baby Christians; immature in understanding.

The subjects of killing babies and people having sex with and "marrying" someone of the same sex. Well far too many just plain sensible unregenerate people have these things figured out.

How long can a regenerate, saved person go on, from the time of the New Birth having taken place, before the killing of babies and sodomy become abhorrent to them in their spirit?

People who don't have the Holy Spirit in residence are not Christ's (Romans 8:9). People who have the Holy Spirit are being schooled and disciplined by the Holy Spirit (Hebrews ch. 12; passages cited above; etc.).

These are obviously extremely serious matters affecting the testimony of the Body of Christ; its effectiveness in its commissions.

Religious people who "adhere" to any system, claiming to be Christians, and can go for any substantial time without abhorring killing babies and sodomy have not experienced the New Birth or the indwelling of the Holy Spirit.
