GOD'S ORIGINAL MANDATE b) CONTINUING TODAY . . . THE MULTIPLICATION OF GOD'S LIKENESS AND IMAGE IN THE EARTH IT'S NO LAUGHING MATTER!
Every blessing that God gives to us is always for our own good, otherwise it would not be a blessing. The big question we must ask ourselves, and be honest about it, is why do we 21st century Christians accept gratefully from God all other blessings, and yet for whatever reasons, refuse the blessing of children God would bless us with if only we would receive them?
We have our excuses and reasons, but will any of them be left standing when the great search light of Gold's truth examines them? Most of our excuses for not receiving the blessings of children stem from a humanistic and worldly mindset, generated from the unregenerate wisdom of man who does not consider God's wisdom worth paying any attention to.
The small family syndrome appeals to the scripturally illiterate on this subject who generate fears of over-population and dwindling world natural resources. All these fears are propagated through the education system, media, and sad to say, now through the deceived church!
The devil laughs and heaven weeps as we modern day Christians seek to disregard, limit, and destroy future children through whatever means possible, i.e. contraception, sterilization, and abortion.
It is true that some evangelical churches stand up against abortion, but many churches and even individuals within evangelical church even accept abortion as an accepted way of life, or should we say, way of death.
Many Christians laugh the laugh of unbelief when the truth of embracing children is mentioned, but be assured, God is not laughing!
Be encouraged.
