Let’s start with a little taste of sarcasm this morning. Gabriella says… (about the current US administration).
It is really quite genius of him. What is a more appropriate place to wage war on the Church than by defending the inalienable right to consequence-free sex? It is the surest way to get all the women on his side and most of the men.
This brings me back to the antichrist again, or in this case, antichrist. There is a sense among the elite that Christianity is Victorian, passe. That the church is sexist. But let us continue with John…
1See what love the Father has given us, that we should be called children of God; and that is what we are. The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. 2Beloved, we are God’s children now; what we will be has not yet been revealed. What we do know is this: when he is revealed, we will be like him, for we will see him as he is. 3And all who have this hope in him purify themselves, just as he is pure.
4Everyone who commits sin is guilty of lawlessness; sin is lawlessness. 5You know that he was revealed to take away sins, and in him there is no sin. 6No one who abides in him sins; no one who sins has either seen him or known him. 7Little children, let no one deceive you. Everyone who does what is right is righteous, just as he is righteous. 8Everyone who commits sin is a child of the devil; for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The Son of God was revealed for this purpose, to destroy the works of the devil. 9Those who have been born of God do not sin, because God’s seed abides in them; they cannot sin, because they have been born of God. 10The children of God and the children of the devil are revealed in this way: all who do not do what is right are not from God, nor are those who do not love their brothers and sisters
Now, there is a tendency to move into the error of the Holiness movement. We are impure. We sin. But we neither pretend that without Christ we are worthy to approach God, nor do we hide our sin but daily confess it and turn again… one day at a time.
And we do not promote sin. Every man is aware there are consequences for sexual activity. If you sleep with a woman, you have to be willing to support any child that comes from that act (and in our feminist driven law system, you have no choice about accepting this). I will not continue to discuss diseases, civil charges (harassment) and what Dalrock called the nuclear option of unilateral divorce.
Our elite now hate Christians. They love homosexuality, minorities, and paradoxically Islam (which hates and in fact kills homosexuals when they have sharia law). We live in a time if Institutionalised Christophobia.
But the elite forget this is nothing new. The Romans hated the Church. The Angles and Saxons killed missionaries. But the Church is Gods, and God is bigger than any of us.
