A Battle over Authority

But didn’t she pose semi-nude? How can she be a preacher?

Satan is called the accuser of the brethren, and so we can expect his people to do the same. Miss Prejean is not advocating her own moral authority, rather she is pointing to the real moral authority found in the self-revealed God and Creator of men.

In the Gospel there is forgiveness for all sin except the sin of unbelief. Will we accuse someone that Christ has forgiven? We do so only if we do not know the depths of sin in our own heart.

Philippians 1:18
What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.

Thank you for giving us some of your time. Take care this week. Again, you will be missed. Dear brother, let's continue in prayer for each other that we would be found faithful in Christ's doctrine and that He would give us wisdom to apply the truth in love, for without love we are nothing.

Thanks again Valiant, also for the liberty.

Until next weekend, Lord willing.

3 John 1:2
Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

Take care, my friend.

Thanks, I hope all is well.

I think she got some flack for intolerance. She could easily say that on a personal level, she objects to homosexuality because it violates God's commands. I say that. But, just like believing in Buddha or the prophet Mohammad would violate the scriptures but you respect those who believe as equals and give them the right to worship as they choose, she could have added that the society could respect homosexuals as being equal to heterosexuals and thus say that the state should allow homosexual marriages. Then it is the job of the Church to use evangelism to get people to repent.

Yeah, she could say that, but she didn't. Instead, she resisted doing the "wishy washy" and stated her opinion clearly, without trying to straddle the fence.

Something that Christians shouldn't do; but the subverted are good at.

She was abused for utilizing her freedom of speech-something the lying left rejoices in only when it is used to tear down the conservatives.

I'm gone for the rest of today. Hope to catch up with you this evening. Good to hear from you. Let us know how you are doing.

All is well, God is in control.

If I could only be more like Him...

1 Peter 2
15For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:

16As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God.

Good points all! Happy to see you could get back for the weekend. All is well, and I hope the same for you my dear friend.
