Not Good Enough...?

Romans 1

There was a time when children were considered precious and gifts from God.

Psalms 127:3-5
Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one's youth. Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate.
English Standard Version

Proverbs 17:16
Grandchildren are the crown of the aged, and the glory of children is their fathers.
English Standard Version

Genesis 33:5 Read This Chapter

And when Esau lifted up his eyes and saw the women and children, he said, Who are these with you? Jacob said, The children whom God has graciously given your servant.
English Standard Version

Today, children are considered burdens to society, a stress to the "over-populated" world. A disease that must certainly be controlled!

Excerpt from the ICPD Programme of Action 1994
All countries should, over the next several years, assess the extent of national unmet need for good-quality family-planning services and its integration in the
reproductive health context, paying particular attention to the most vulnerable
and underserved groups in the population. All countries should take steps to
meet the family-planning needs of their populations as soon as possible and
should, in all cases by the year 2015, seek to provide universal access to a
full range of safe and reliable family-planning methods and to related
reproductive health services which are not against the law. The aim should be to
assist couples and individuals to achieve their reproductive goals and give them
the full opportunity to exercise the right to have children by choice.
(Paragraph 7.16) (This is from the UN's website...Population Control?)

Abortion is another way to control the population and control "unwanted pregnancies". World Wide there are reported approximately 46 million abortions per year. There are approximately 126,000 abortions per day! Babies are no longer considered precious! For comparison purposes I found that nearly 6 million jews were killed in the holocaust . Abortion is today's holocuast. Another attempt to cleanse society and create a better race.

Rember when the elderly were respected and loved?

Proverbs 16:311 Gray hair is a crown of glory;it is gained in a righteous life.
English Standard Version

The Bible says getting old is a good thing and deserves respect.

Leviticus 19:32 "'Rise in the presence of the aged, show respect for the elderly and revere your God. I am the Lord.

Today they are abused, euthanized, and forgotten. My own grandmother was taken off "life-support" because the doctors suggested and various family members bought into the lie stating "she wouldn't want to be on life-support." Did they pull the plug on a machine that pumped her heart? No, she had no such machine. Her heart beat on its own. Did they remove a vital life giving oxygen tube? No, she was breathing on her own? The "life-support" that she was removed from was a feeding tube. Today, "heroic measures" to keep someone alive is considered food. Yes, food is an heroic life saving measure that can and will be withdrawn if one is deemed invaluable to society.

How did we get to this point? How did we as a nation, as a society, as Christians get to this point of think of human life as disposable? When did people have to be considered "good enough" to be granted the right to live?

May I suggest that this thinking rides on the coat tails of the teaching of evolution and the dismissal of a Creator? After all, if there is no God, no Creator then there is no heaven and no hell. That would mean that this life is all we would have. The teaching and brain washing of evolution has slipped in and changed the way we as a society view life.

God predicted it would happen...

Romans 1:20-25

20 For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse. 21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles. 24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator--who is forever praised. Amen.

and

Romans 1:28-32

28 Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. 29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31 they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless. 32 Although they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.

Sharon Hughes from NewsWithViews.com says:

"Lenin used evolution to brainwash the Soviet Union into a 'scientific atheism.' Mao, responsible for the deaths of tens of millions of people, had two favorite books, one by Darwin and the other by Huxley. And Nietzsche, who declared to the world 'God is dead,' believed in the breeding of a master race. "

And John Bergman from Answers in Genesis states:

"Darwinism not only influenced the Nazi attitude toward Jews, but other cultural and ethnic groups as well. Even mental patients were included later, in part because it was then believed that heredity had a major influence on mental illness (or they possibly had some Jewish or other non-Aryan blood in them), and consequently had to be destroyed. Poliakov notes that many intellectuals in the early 1900s accepted telegony, the idea that ‘bad blood’ would contaminate a race line forever, or that ‘bad blood drives out good, just as bad money displaces good money’. Only extermination would permanently eliminate inferior genetic lines, and thereby further evolution. "

Yeah, I think maybe the teaching of lies may have had something to do with it....
