I mean, how do you address your 2nd grader learning in public screwels how to masturbate or learning the details of gay sex?? These children of hell are clearly going into "millstone about the neck" territory. And on a parental level - "grab the baseball bat and clean a few clocks" level. Maybe it is just me - but I like to guard my kids' innocence from freakish family members who have chucked common sense to the curb - or from screwel people who have taken the liberal agenda to a whole new level and want to corrupt the new generation; making the new generation of people "twice the children of hell that they are".
God will only be mocked so much - and then the hammer drops. My instincts tell me that we are close. This is why we are commanded to study the scriptures -
- First, to receive a witness of their truthfulness.
- Second - while reading them, we receive personal revelation about what we need to focus on (repent of, modify in our lives).
- Third - we simply learn where the lines are in the eternal realms; what bounds God has placed on us and on those that He has taken down when they have crossed those bounds. I look for patterns - the patterns of those who chose to push the limits and "tempt" the Lord their God - and failed.
After all that rambling, here is the article that got me to thinking:

And one last thought. When it comes to scripture, this blog is my journal/"scripture". Kind of a record of how I think for my posterity. In reading it, my progeny will know what made their ancestor tick. And, if they find something useful, it will help them understand who they are when they hit their late teens/20's and go through that self-discovery/searching phase.
Maybe looking back to these trying times, they will be in awe at what we had to go thru (after things are made aright in the Millennium) and the trash is kicked to the curb.
Iraq, just wondering how you would handle it and how you would treat you child if they told you they were gay and if they brought home a boy/girl friend?
