It is nothing less than tragic that
so many people have a shallow and careless attitude toward the sacredness of
courtship, marriage vows, the bed, fidelity and children these days.
Did you ever consider that a child is the ultimate expression of a married couple's love for one another? A child is God's gift, a token of life-time love between a man and a woman. They who were two separate beings are now miraculously one, united in one beautiful offspring.
How devastating it is when mom and dad divorce, putting the children into the awkward position of displacement, shattering the lifetime union which they represent. Whereas God gave them as an inheritance, entrusting them to their parents, they are now castaways on the stormy seas of a broken home. Oh how God hates the sin of divorce! Jeremiah 3:20, “Surely as a wife treacherously departeth from her husband, so have ye dealt treacherously with me, O house of Israel, saith the LORD.” Divorce is a horrible sin, which no one ought to ever encourage nor recommend. The Bible teaches that only sinful pride causes divorce. Proverbs 13:10, “Only by pride cometh contention...”
If a person desires strongly enough to do wrong, then they will pervert the Scriptures and find a way to justify it in their own wicked mind. They did this back in the Old Testament. Jeremiah 7:9-10, “Will ye steal, murder, and commit adultery, and swear falsely, and burn incense unto Baal, and walk after other gods whom ye know not; And come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, We are delivered to do all these abominations?” Isn't that something... they blamed God for their sins, saying that it was God's will for them to murder, steal, commit adultery and worship idols. We see this same evil at work in America today. The television networks, apostate churches and liberal authors are all falsely saying that God made the homosexuals “that way.”
May I say, God doesn't make mistakes. If God creates two men as homosexual, then God messed up, because they can't reproduce. The truth is that Biblical marriage is between one man and one woman, hopefully who love each other, and have been blessed with the gift of having children, which are the combining of mom and dad into one being, a child. Isn't that precious. Children are the ultimate expression of a man and a woman's love for each other, combining their two beings into ONE. That's one reason why the sin of divorce is so evil, wrong and should never even be considered.
Some wayward ministers, like Peter Ruckman, teach that a child in the womb is not yet a human being until the first breath of life is taken at birth. Yet, God said in Jeremiah 1:5 that he “knew” Jeremiah before he was formed in the womb. Satan is relentlessly trying to steal, kill and destroy (John 10:10) families worldwide. The greatest threat to the cause of Satan is secure families, backed by strong marriages and happy children who follow in their parent's bold faith in Jesus Christ. That's why Satan's attack is against anyone and everything that strengthens the family. Public school have been ground zero for Satan's spiritually devastating bombs of sex-education, Harry Potter's witchcraft and the woeful lies of Evolution (Devilution). Satan wants your child mom and dad!
The Devil knows that if he can get mothers into the secular workplace, then children are left alone to be destroyed. Don't take my word for it, listen to the Word of God for yourself in Proverbs 29:15, “...a child left to himself bringeth his mother to shame.” Children need proper discipline and training, being raised up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. Ephesians 6:4, “And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.” Of course, fathers had to be removed from the home to prevent proper discipling of children. Demonic feminism said, “Those overbearing husbands and strict fathers must go!,” and so divorce became commonplace.
Fathers who enroll their children into public schools are literally handing them over to the Devil to be indoctrinated with evil and worldliness. There is no greater foolish decision than to put your precious children into the Devil's school, where they will be emotionally, mentally and spiritually rendered useless for God. It was a different story back in the 1950's. Today it's a hellhole war-zone in public schools, where anything goes and Godless teachers teach the kids New Age, blaspheme God and in many cases have sex with the kids. Literally, you'd be better off locking your child into a lion's cage at the local zoo than to leave them in the hands of the idiots in the dysfunctional and disastrous public school system.
I'd rather leave my kids in the care of a mental ward than entrust them to the hands of a public school teacher. All across America public schools are the mental toilets of society, where a child's hope and brightest future is to get a steady factory job and vote Democrat or Republican for the rest of their wasted life, looking to the newsmedia to tell them what to believe. God has given you a once-in-a-lifetime investment in your child, don't invest in junk bonds or junk schools. Most parents can afford private school, it's just a matter of priorities like anything else. Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also (Matthew 6:21). Your children are your treasure, so invest in them.
Let others kill their children if that's what they think is right... idiots! But you don't have to be stupid does, just because stupid is. Let other fools push the stupid button, but you don't have to follow them and push the stupid button too. In an insane world, it is a revolutionary thought to do what is right in God's eyes. 1st Corinthians 3:18, “Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.” Let the world mock, laugh and reject us for doing the right thing as Christians. They're all headed for the Lake of Fire.
Courtship used to mean something back in the decent times in America. A boy was taught to speak to a girl's parents first (properly, to the father, to ask permission if he may date the man's daughter). If the boy had a bad reputation as a bum, thief or playing around with other girls, then the father often said no. Many times the boy knew that he didn't even have to ask, because he had a bad reputation. But that was a motivation for a troublesome boy to get his act together, get into church, and behave himself in order to court a young lady to whom he desired to make his sweetheart.
Nowadays you've got girls getting pregnant during lunch break at school, and then having an abortion months later at a private clinic, and the girl's parents are never told about what's going on. It's crazy! Yet that girl cannot take a bus ride anywhere without written permission from the parents. It's evil, evil, evil. Your teen daughter can get an abortion without the parents ever having to be notified, but you can't go on a class field trip without signing a permission skip. Someone(s) should be put in prison for a very long time who enacted such laws that permit teen abortions without parental consent. The reason why they're doing this is to increase the abortion rate, so they can murder the human race one at a time until we've reached 500,000,000 people (as determined by the mysterious Georgia Guidestones).
Even your wife or husband doesn't have your blood, DNA nor bone; but you and your child share the same DNA, blood and flesh. Isn't that precious! You and your child share the same DNA, blood and flesh. Isn't that precious! Love your children while you have them, because they are here one day and gone the next. They grow up super fast!!! Life has no guarantees. The only two things that you can count on in life are taxes and death (Hebrews 7:27)
Walt Disney has been promoting fornication via their programs aimed at teens and children, like Nickelodeon, which also pushes the same-sex homosexual agenda on teens. God is angry I assure you. Why aren't we? God's most prized possession to the world was His only begotten child. There was only one Messiah, the Christ, Jesus (Acts 4:10-12). Yet, God in His wondrous love gave up His biological Son as a sacrifice for our many sins. “Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.” Isn't that a beautiful truth? Jesus could have dropped that cross at any time and quit, saying, “forget this, I'm going back to Heaven.” But He kept going the Bible says He endured the brutality of Calvary for our sakes, because He loves us all (1st John 3:16; Romans 5:8).
A child embodies the biological DNA traits of BOTH parents. Isn't that beautiful? Never underestimate the awesome power and depth of goodness of our God. God alone decides who can or cannot have children. A child is born in the image of our own parents. Children are the most precious, innocent and incredible creation of a loving and omnipotent God. It is beautiful how God has created the universe. It is sinful to teach children that Jack Frost makes it snow, and Mr. Sandman makes people sleepy, and the tooth-fairy collects old teeth from under their pillow. God makes it snow. God brings to us all good things! James 1:17, “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.” Children ought to be taught about the greatness of God, instead of the mythical Santa Claus and the fictitious Easter Bunny. Children have been lied to long enough by Satan.
God has made it so that a married couple who are in love can merge into one flesh (procreate), miraculously producing a child by God's grace that shows forth the love of mom and dad throughout the lives of their children (tokens of their parent's love for one another). This is a main reason why divorce is such a horrible and terrible sin. It brings tears to one's eyes just trying to grasp the beauty and awesomeness of God's mercy, goodness and creativity.
