Sunday’s Memory Verse, 11/5/23

“And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.” Hebrews 11:6 NIV

This Is a Baby

These 2 photos are of the same baby. The only difference between these 2 photos is the baby’s location (in the mother’s womb and after birth).

Did you know that you were created the moment your mother’s egg and your father’s sperm were united? Yes, you were created about 9 months before the day of your birth. At the moment of conception, your exact genetic makeup was determined: your sex, your hair color, skin color, eye color, all of it!

At the instant of fertilization, your baby’s genes and sex are set. If the sperm has a Y chromosome, your baby will be a boy. If it has an X chromosome, the baby will be a girl.

Web MD https://www.webmd.com/baby/understanding-conception

After conception, you started to grow and continued to develop until about age 25. (Emerging science about brain development suggests that most people don’t reach full maturity until the age 25.)

“For you created my inmost being;
    you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
    your works are wonderful,
    I know that full well.
 My frame was not hidden from you
    when I was made in the secret place,
    when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.
 Your eyes saw my unformed body;
    all the days ordained for me were written in your book
    before one of them came to be.
” Psalm 139:13-16 NIV (emphasis mine)

God is present in the smallest parts of our lives. Even before we are born, He is at work.

Abortion rights advocates push the erroneous belief that the baby in his/her mother’s womb is not a human being. They refer to her as the “fetus”, “a clump of cells”, a “zygote”, or even a “parasite”. There is a reason behind this.

Unwanted human beings have always been belittled and dehumanized by language in order to justify killing them.

Rebecca Dyer

During the Holocaust, Jews were not considered human. During slavery in America, blacks were not considered “persons” because of their skin color.

A human is a human, and calling it anything else in order to marginalize its value is wrong.

“It is scientifically correct to say that an individual human life begins at conception … and that this developing human always is a member of our species in all stages of life” 

Harvard University Medical School professor Micheline Matthews-Ross testified before a 1981 U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee

Abortion Facts

  • As of 2019 – New York abortion law now allows for abortions all the way to full-term!
  • There are nearly one million abortions per year on average, while there are approximately two million families waiting to adopt a child.

Someone must stand up and say, “THIS IS NOT RIGHT!”

Let those who love the Lord hate evil,
    for he guards the lives of his faithful ones
    and delivers them from the hand of the wicked.” Psalm 97:10 NIV

To be Pro-Choice means that you believe it is a mother’s choice whether her baby will live or be killed. Let’s call it what it is. You can call it something else, like women’s rights, autonomy, healthcare, etc., but that does not change the truth. Women who face an unplanned pregnancy should not be fed lies!

You have to ask yourself, “Why is there so much pro-abortion propaganda, misinformation, and lies?

According to a 2019 report, revenue for the abortion industry has continued to grow. It has been growing at a rate of 1.7% over the past five years and is expected to total $4.1 billion in 2023.

Follow the money!

“For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil.” 1 Timothy 6:10 NIV

Many young people have been brainwashed by a pro-abortion agenda. Kristin Hawkins makes pro-life speeches at universities around the country. You can find her on YouTube. It will open your eyes to what we are up against and the lies these students believe.

(Jesus rebuked the Pharisees saying,) “You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies. John 8:44 NIV (emphasis mine)

“All that is required for evil to triumph is for good people to do nothing.”

Edmund Burke

Quote of the Week, 11/1/23

Fight! for your pastor by praying for him, acknowledging that “the person who is under more satanic attack than anyone else you know is your pastor. The person whose faith Satan wants to derail the most is your pastor. The person whose marriage Satan would most like to wreck, whose kids he most wants to cause to rebel, whom he most wants to discourage is your pastor. You need to fight in prayer for your pastor.”

Peter Orr, from his book, Fight For Your Pastor

 “I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.  I can do all this through him who gives me strength.” Philippians 4:12-13 NIV (emphasis mine)

Parenting Teens Isn’t For Wimps

Do your kids have secrets they don’t share with you? Well, I don’t know about you, but I certainly didn’t tell my parents everything I did! And I was a “good” kid (well, at least until I went away to college).

In the day we live it is more important than ever to talk to your kids and build up trust so they will tell you about school and their friends. Your kids need to be unafraid of how you will respond. They need to be able to voice their concerns to someone they know loves them.

If they say something shocking, don’t overreact! Take a deep breath and try to continue the conversation calmly so that you can discuss what they said. (Kids have been known to try to shock you.)

Consider this snippet of a real conversation a mother had with her young married daughter, Jane. (Names have been changed.)

Mom: “Are you going to church?” (not the first time Jane got this question!)

Jane: “Not really.”

Mom: “You need to go to church! It’s really important. Blah, blah, blah”

Jane: “I don’t know if I even believe in God!”

Mom freaks out and starts yelling! “You’re not my daughter! I don’t have a daughter!”

Jane storms out of the house and they don’t speak to each other for over a year.

Now here’s the back story: Jane was a Christian, but she was seriously questioning her belief in God. She accepted Jesus as a child, but she never had the support she needed to grow and mature in Christ. She needed someone to voice her concerns to.

Jesus didn’t abandon Jane. He watched over her for many years until she found her way back to Him. (He is the most faithful friend you could ever have.) Not many years later, Jane did go back to church and eventually even became involved in ministry.

So, if your child says something shocking to you that makes you want to scream, consider it an opportunity for them to think through what they said with someone who loves them.

“Be merciful to those who doubt” Jude 1:22 NIV

 “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.  It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.  Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.  It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.” 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 NIV

The demands on parents today can be overwhelming, especially on moms. I know what it’s like to lose my cool. We’ve all done it!

My advice is to prepare yourself ahead of time for how you will respond to some outrageous remark from your teen because it will probably happen eventually. When something comes at us out of the blue and we are caught off guard, that’s when our response may be less than stellar.

“Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect,” 1 Peter 3:15 NIV
