That seems like an arbitrary system where some are chosen and some are left out. Got operates that way? I thought Christians believe that God created everyone the same, all in His image, and that they're all children of God. In this country, it's the ones who can't work for some reason who generally go hungry and homeless. They're not doing their "part"? Are they being punished? I don't understand your comment as it applies to real life.

I came from a large family and we all started drifting apart once we started having our own families and our parents passed away. Religious conflict has been a big issue, as some family members are evangelicals and think it's their job to save the rest of us heathens! The pandemic also brought more division.

Look at this world and ALL that He has created. He provides and promises food, clothing, shelter and all other essential needs to His children, the people who have accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior and have faith and trust that He will provide, no matter what, as He says He will.

I know for a fact they talk about him working and his company at times on the show and also on their website in their devotionals. Many people who post comments on here don’t know the Lord Jesus or anything about Him and don’t realize that what the poster that was talking about the Lord taking care of food, clothing and essential needs is referring to Him taking care of His children. The ones who have accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior and have faith and trust in Him that He will supply all their needs no matter what. Just as Chad and Erin and the Bates family do.

Many were messy, awkward to use, and ineffective. There was also a long period of time when the making and sale of contraception in this country was a federal crime. (Read up on the Comstock Act of 1873). The Pill was a huge technological advance because it was simple to use, highly effective, and could be taken anytime, anywhere and without anyone else knowing. No method in previous centuries had ever achieved that level of effectiveness, privacy and female control.<br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5387778566526841808.post-76188993909710435472023-05-30T19:22:28.509-05:002023-05-30T19:22:28.509-05:00So, did Chad not receive any inspiration from his ...So, did Chad not receive any inspiration from his Dad or his remarkable grandfather (see Erin’s recent interview of him).

Certainly the government has no right to tell us we can't preach for or against bc but between individuals do you know how discouraging it is to get negative remarks every time we announce a pregnancy? It's a pregnancy announcement! A new life, a new daughter/son, a new grandbaby. Not something so devastating that it calls for sympathy. Good grief. And no you don't have the right to TELL us to stop. You can say you think bc is a good idea but you can't order us to stop having kids just like we can't order you to stop using bc.
