Sometimes my thought patterns are difficult to understand, but sometimes the thought patterns of others are quite obtuse. I am observing a headline that reads "A Bill Before Congress to Protect "Pedophelia" as a Sexual Orientation?" Society as a whole has declined to a point that we even attempt to call such behavior anything but "sin"! Isaiah 5:20-21 (KJV) says "Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!"
Now the feelings I have toward those who would hurt children this way do not need to be discussed. But, according to scripture (Romans 3:23 "For ALL have sinned, and come short of the glory of God), the Spirit of every believer has victory over sin (Romans 6:22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.)
CHOICES in life can be devastating or rewarding. Romans 8:5-8 (ESV) "For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but THOSE WHO LIVE according to the Spirit SET THEIR MINDS on the things of the Spirit. For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace. For the mind that is set on the FLESH IS HOSTILE TO GOD, for it does not submit to God's law; indeed, IT CANNOT. Those who are in the flesh CANNOT please God."
I "CHOOSE" to live for CHRIST. Your choice may to be to "live your own life" and to accept those consequences. Remember, scripture says " Those who are in the flesh cannot please God". Consider your "options" and select wisely. The consequences can be ETERNAL!!
