    I dont eat SOS, Grits, Syrup, Gravy, Broccoli, and a few other things.
    I have two rules:
    1) must look good,
    2) must sound good

    I was stationed on an army base in Germany - across town was an Air Force Base. I went to see a friend over there one night - he also had a midnight chow pass. Well, I borrowed one of his uniforms and got a free meal that night (I was on Sep rats)

    You have to care in order to repent. Start there.

    Apparently now in most states killing babies is considered an essential service.

    God help us...

    Yep. The abortion number is not accurate. The two states that do the most butchering dont report their numbers. Its more than that.

    Yes, and everyone cares. As Lewis pointed out, "The first sum has been worked out for us." As Jesus quoted, "'"Love your neighbor as yourself."'" But that gets, "'Who is my neighbor?'"

    Jesus also said, "'Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.'" But then we hear, "Who are others?" Some consider babies in the womb outside the category.

    There is a deep spiritual flaw in us that wants to focus solely on, "What's in it for me and mine?" Everyone cares, about his own interests, "'even pagans and tax collectors.'"

    Therefore, not everyone cares enough to recognize their fellow man.... so if you don’t care for your fellow bro or sister, how you going to repent?

    Well, it may be a matter of perspective and understanding here. One must first recognize that he is guilty. Doing so does not mean he has changed. The new caring would be the repentance, or a sign thereof.

    OK but my point is the Holy Spirit needs to interject Himself so the subject can gain the grace to repent... ie, it’s a new level of self awareness whereby the subject is now painfully aware of the sins and desperately wants to own up and change the behavior that led them there in the first place.

    Yes, unless and until someone hears, they will not repent, cannot repent.
