This is another important verse about decision-making and the will of God, but as in the last Roundup, it is easy to overlook.  Note how Paul has an open door in the Lord, but this time he passes it by because he wants to find his friend Titus.  Apparently, Paul has other open doors from which to choose.  He didn’t appear to be idle.  So unless God gives you a clear, unmistakable, supernatural sign, then choose with freedom. 

2 Corinthians 2:12–13 When I came to Troas to preach the gospel of Christ, even though a door was opened for me in the Lord, my spirit was not at rest because I did not find my brother Titus there. So I took leave of them and went on to Macedonia.

Good points here. Be an egalitarian! Because Ephesians 5 says Jesus and the church are mutually submissive or something . . .

Seriously, Christ is honored and things go better in families when the Bible is followed.

Short answer: Yes. Another good video.

100% of the verses addressing homosexual behavior denounce it as sin in the strongest possible terms.

100% of the verses referencing God’s ideal for marriage involve one man and one woman.

100% of the verses referencing parenting involve moms and dads with unique roles (or at least a set of male and female parents guiding the children).

0% of 31,173 Bible verses refer to homosexual behavior in a positive or even benign way or even hint at the acceptability of homosexual unions.

Biden Threatens Border Agents: “Those People Will Pay” — The horse / whip thing is a lie. Biden and Co. know it is a lie. But they say it anyway. What vile people! They aren’t doing their jobs, but they are publicly castigating and demonizing those who are doing their jobs. Punishing the innocent and exonerating the guilty, as usual. And note how this is the only time they are willing to talk about the border!

When a woman miscarries at 8 weeks, or the doctor fails to see a heartbeat at 20 weeks, or the child is stillborn at 34 weeks, does the mother rejoice? Does the father cheer? Do the friends and parents remain indifferent? No. They weep. Life has been lost. We know. We all know. Kevin DeYoung

That great quote had mostly pro-life responses, but also got the following tired, lame, and deadly virtue-signaling from a male feminist (such a low form of humanity!). And of course, Mr. Science Person called it a potential life, even though by any scientific standard it is a living human being.

*potential life. Until pro-life people want to talk about doing more to prevent unwanted pregnancies (besides abstinence-only sex ed), and doing more to make sure that women who choose to carry unexpected pregnancies to term… your words are meaningless.

My short response is this: We oppose the crushing and dismembering of children inside or outside the womb. Nothing else is required to meaningfully oppose abortion.

Or you can share any of these nine reasons.
