I ran across a new left-wing phrase yesterday to describe those with wombs: womb-carriers. For the sane among us, "womb carriers" are actually women. Why use two woke words when the real one will do?
Even as a secular person I worry about an America without even a minimum of religious education or knowledge. Shouldn't the churches spending so much time and money fighting over how hard to placate the Trumpkins redirect their energy to helping America's young people? I personally know of over a dozen young mothers that would love to have a church couple take their child to Sunday School and allow them a few hours of respite from single parenting. I think if every church adopted this policy it could do a world of good.
I would hope, if the local churches were aware of the need, they would jump at the opportunity to help. Could you possibly liaise with the two groups in this situation? Sounds like a win-win to me.
Spot on! We can see the rage and blame moving towards possible acts of violence against their perceived enemies. Anti-Christian rhetoric is becoming louder and more frequent, plus mainstream politicians are not shy about casting aspersions on Christians to appease their constituents.
The "new lexicon for a secular religion" as you appropriately call it is intentionally confusing and abstract, and is to be understood and explained by only the smartest people in the room. This, to me, is a dead-giveaway that it's a scam. If an astrophysicist can write an article in which he/she explains the physics of the cosmos to laymen like me, there is no reason why the infinitely less complex topics of gender and race cannot be similarly broken down. The lies that worked for Adam and Eve continue to work today. But Satan can only suggest; it's our own hubris that carries out the lie.
That image is so good, Erick. So good. Very apropos for our times, though I doubt many know who Molech is or why it is a great analogy for the abortion advocates. The church has gotten away from being a shining light on a hill illuminating a better way, a path out of darkness. They fail, and are failing because they look like just another flavor of the World rather than a bold statement of something better. Sad, but it is happening and we are living in historic times both in the world and in the church. I hope we survive to talk about it later.
So so good. The linchpin of secularism is the belief that people are inherently good. Of course, if that were true we wouldn’t need laws. Human nature inevitably reveals itself as sinful, in need of a propitiatory sacrifice.
You are again, RIGHT ON with this one today. When I young, I knew nothing about what is going on today as I had Christian parents that my Mother played the Organ at Church. I remember all the words you talked about and the schools started the big changes with my children that are in their 60's and have just kept it up until now we have Churches that think we need to do it.
As I study my Bible each day and review all of Rev 6, I can see it coming and even at my age, I may even be pulled up by an angle rather than go down a few feet first. And I Pray that everyone that follows you with your excellent statements will also.
A war has been raging since Adam ate of that fruit of which God said, "Surely the day you eat you will die." Satan indwelling the standing snake gleefully stood as he waited the sure destruction of the man and his wife who had broken the law. You can hear him snarling "back to dust" for those God had put over the creation, daring to put man into a role that Satan coveted.
Yet, God had something of a surprise for Satan. Man would experience that fearful judgement but God gave man something Satan did not expect, He gave man mercy. Instead of instant physical death, he covered man with the first shedding of blood, giving the man and woman clothes made from animal hides, and speaking to the serpent said "I will put enmity between her seed and your seed, and He will crush your head, and you will bruise his heel." That verse Genesis 3:15 sets the trajectory of all of history.
From that moment forward the war for the soul of man was started. The falling of Roe Wade was not a pronouncement of the evil of abortion but a statement of the overreach of a former Supreme Court giving the federal government power reserved for the states. All of the hysterics of those who want abortion is because they must now fight for it state by state. In Roe Wade Satan thought he had won the soul of man. Now with its fall, each state will need to determine whether man has a soul to be concerned about.
The was has always been about whether man and women have souls. If they don't, well then man/women have no intrinsic value, and therefore the chant of "my body my choice" makes no moral statement, since life has no meaning and all we are is walking talking dust.
If Life has no meaning, then we celebrate the 4th in error, since "We find these truths to be self evident all men are CREATED equal" was an error of monumental proportions as CREATED is the most important word in the whole declaration. It is from that presupposition that all of the enumerated rights of man are derived. Without that fact as the underpinning, then everything else falls apart. The Constitution was framed with that same underpinning. Its stated purpose was to create a union where the sinfulness of man was constrained for the betterment of the souls of all.
So now, the great battle for the soul of man is before this generation. I wish I could say it will not be bloody, but the adversary cares little about the lives of either his own captives or those the captives fight.
Today is still a day of salvation, and may those who know the truth of "what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul" present the reality of the uniqueness of each person given a soul by God, and why we need to repent and return to the value God has given to each of us. If even one person repents, then the struggle will be worth it, as that one soul has more value than everything this world has to offer, and that person, body and soul, will not need to experience that wrath the Satan and all who follow him, will, for all eternity.
Wow, an excellent read. Do read Paul and the riots at Ephesus.
I work with people who are secular and virtue signal. It strikes me that there is no way they can operate at work the same way they operate on their personal life.
What I mean is it is not possible to be so illogical and also be functional in the real world. These are rational people that are planning on both sides of the net.
I have a 20 something family member who is an example of being a full on believer in the secular religion of post modernism. Everything is relive, subjective. They are useless. Has a collage degree, physically healthy, attractive... and can't get out bed. Paralyzed because they don't know their purpose, there must be something more, and they require an answer now. And they are destroying themselves and everyone around them, like an alcoholic.
Liberal policies breed the people that answer Nancy Pelosi's fatwa. They are the minions of violence as a campaign tactic pioneered by they left. Now, elections are not enough, they are called to fundamentally change the fabric of society. Not to maintain the status quo, as with the riots at Ephesus, but to overthrow what is because [if the] neighbor won’t stop
This has been a fear of mine for quite some time. Young indoctrinated leftist worship SELF not God and in their worship, everything they want must be so or they will do whatever to make it so! Sodom and Gomorrah was like this. The people stopped being moral or never were. They gave into all hedonism and selfishness thru total sexual immorality which lead to violence. We all know what God had to do to those cities. Will God have to do the same here? He is not happy with our turning from holiness, abusing the gifts he has bestowed on America and seeing leaders exploiting the people to carry out the sinfulness of the leaders! November can't come fast enough but only God can save America from the filth and violence that is coming! Wasn't it Adams who said our Constitution will only work for a moral people? We are going to have to choose which side we are on cuz they will force us and no matter what, God will be there for those who's faith stays strong!
All true - modern day leftism is vile and hate filled. As any Christian can see, it is straight from the Devil himself. As a Christian I take comfort in knowing how it ends. As 1 John 4:4 says, “ You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.”

“In other religions, the sacrifice must be made to placate the gods. If babies can’t be sacrificed, someone must be.”
So insightful, if not prophetic.

This so completely and accurately expresses current events. They are in a bloodlust.

Erick at his best!
Here here! Well written piece.
That image is so good, Erick. So good. Very apropos for our times, though I doubt many know who Molech is or why it is a great analogy for the abortion advocates.

So so good. The linchpin of secularism is the belief that people are inherently good. Of course, if that were true we wouldn’t need laws. Human nature inevitably reveals itself as sinful, in need of a propitiatory sacrifice.
I might counter that the linchpin for secularists is the belief that each person determines what is good for themselves.
Based on the ontological belief that people are essentially good.
You are again, RIGHT ON with this one today. When I young, I knew nothing about what is going on today as I had Christian parents that my Mother played the Organ at Church. I remember all the words you talked about and the schools started the big changes with my children that are in their 60's and have just kept it up until now we have Churches that think we need to do it.
