abortion

If America was every a Christian nation it nolong is. Christians should be ashamed of themselves for letting America get this far from God.

 

It's a kind of Molech worship, killing babies in exchange for their own happiness and pleasure.
I like Psalm 139:13-16

Dt 18:10, 12:31

 

I'm not a young adult (an old lady of 42! ) but couldn't help peeking in on this thread as the topic is close to my heart.

I agree, abortion is horrible, isn't it? Sounds like you all have very strong opinions on the subject. Did you know, statistically, that the abortion rate among those claiming to be Christian is about the same as the abortion rate among the lost? With that many abortions, most likely you know somebody who has had one, or has paid for one, even if you don't know they did because it isn't something that gets talked about easily.

Do you mind a question from an older lady?

How are you younger adults getting involved in helping turn these teenagers away from their destructive lifestyles? Ever consider reaching out to these kids instead of, well, talking unkindly about them? Example, does your college have any ministries reaching out to the lost teens in your community? Or, have you ever considered becoming a volunteer at a crisis pregnancy center?

You know, those centers really could use godly younger men and women, to come alongside and mentor these young dads and moms (most of whom simply have no clue about what's right, kind of like the Ninevites that God sent Jonah to preach to) and teach them a better way of living.

It's awesome how many teens AND their parents, too, are won for Christ, and turn their lives around, through that kind of outreach ministry.

Well, that's my 2 cents worth of opinion. I hope I didn't offend anybody But I am curious how the college crowd reaches out for the lost in their surrounding communities.

(um, btw, Clean1, Mexico City isn't part of the U.S., last time I checked - I homeschool so please pardon the teacher in me )

 

Did I really read this correctly?

Next thing you know, you'll be telling us Puerto Rico is part of the US.

 

Yes, C1!
You may go to a Christian school, but did you read closely what Lorelei said? The abortion rate among "Christians" is about the same as non-Christians. That means when you sit down in class (you never know the hearts of people) you may be sitting very close to someone who has had an abortion!
Just something to think about!

 

I know several "Christians" who have had abortions. One aborted twins. She was my best friend in high school, just as active as I was in the youth group. Her dad was a deacon. She was 26 when she did that, and when she told me I was heartbroken. I would have raised those babies.

I knew another girl that had an abortion, grew up in the church too. Its definitely a problem in the church.

 

So true. I also teach at a private Christian school, and I can ditto exactly what Scarlett has said.
