Featured Letters to abortion centers

Ray Comfort has been on an anti-abortion phase lately. I wouldn't doubt that Evan's inspiration to write these letters comes from Comfort's emphasis on the issue.

You don't listen to anyone! I'm just here for the popcorn and laughs.

 

The [Edited] references help with the laughs!

 

"[edited comments]", Evan. He is not laughing at abortion.

 

Correct.

 

That's the key.

I have a friend who came out of the Jehovah's Witness cult a number of years ago because one of the ladies classes at the local Baptist church heard that they had just brought home a newborn daughter with some significant health issues.

Shortly after arriving home from the hospital, the doorbell rang and a couple of senior ladies stood there with casseroles in hand and groceries in the car. They said they were from the Baptist church and knew that they had their hands full with their newborn daughter, so they brought over some meals and fresh groceries for the cupboard. My friend protested that they were JWs and didn't need handouts from the local churches, but they apologized for intruding, but kept bringing in bags of food and things for the baby, including diapers.

Two days later, another group of ladies returned to pick up the casserole dishes and brought more food and diapers, plus a few things a sharp-eyed person from the previous visit thought they needed for their home.

This pattern continued for weeks until the young family was settled in. Until that point, no one had verbally made a point about the gospel message - they just loved on the family. Finally, my friend couldn't contain himself anymore and went over to the church building and asked the pastor why they were doing such a thing. The pastor explained that Jesus taught them to love their neighbors, and that they were neighbors to the Baptists. This began a long journey of reading a Bible secretly purchased out of town and eventually coming to faith because of the simple loving testimony of some senior ladies.

If they had come with a doctrinal argument and handfuls of tracts (even if they had brought food and supplies), their message and actions would have been dismissed as simply trying to win a convert. But by not tying any strings to their love, they gave my friend and his wife the space to understand that there was actually a difference in the way those church people lived.

And God used it.

 

You say that as if it is a bad thing. Have you considered you might be wrong?

Yet you have time for endless threads in this forum, "open air" preaching, the reading of many books, an obsession with tracts, and other assorted things, but you don't have time to love your neighbor?

Listen, I work about 60 hours a week now (a single salaried job that takes a LOT of time), and I still make time to get involved in the lives of other people - including numerous non-believers.

In my younger days, I worked 60-75 hours a week and STILL found the time to love my neighbors, even though my church attendance suffered because of frequently getting scheduled on Sunday with my part time evening and weekend job.

Jesus calls us to love our neighbors, and you don't get to claim it is "friendship evangelism" and exempt yourself from it. That's disobedience.

 

I don't understand how they can repent if they are reading your letter in Hell?

 

If unborn babies are not people what are they?

Animals or human beings?
