Religious Chick

By Mike Oppenheimer (Let Us Reason Ministries) ( Articlesource ) Who do you say Jesus is? Jesus asked this same question to his disciples about what others thought of him and then asked what they thought of him. Jn.5:37: "And the Father himself, who sent me, has borne witness of me. You have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape. ‘Jesus gives the source of his commission, which is from the Father personally. It is the Fathers voice and form they have not seen, yet Christ has. Christ who is called the exact image of the invisible Father is the voice that the people heard. He then says that they search the Scriptures in them you think you have eternal life but they testify of me."(v.39) The Son is said to be the eternal life with the Father. Are we to believe the Scriptures testify of only a human being and not God himself? In the end of the discourse Jesus says in vs.46-47 "If you believed Moses you would believe Me; for he wrote about me...

Opposing and exposing evil and consistently speaking on behalf of those who are dehumanized and destroyed in our culture is not contrary to the preaching of the Gospel. The Great Commission does not cancel out a Christian's responsibility to rescue those being led to the slaughter and God's command to love our neighbor. In fact the Great Commission includes teaching others God's commands, "teaching them to observe all that I commanded you." God has commanded us to love and re scue the orphan, weak and oppressed, to stand against evil, love mercy, establish justice, correct oppression, and bring justice to the fatherless. Preaching the Good News of Jesus Christ and rescuing my pre-born neighbor from death are not contrary but harmonious.

            I recently interviewed a man on the subject of abortion. His name was Randall and he supported abortion. The reasons he gave in defense of his position are not new or reasonably thought out. They are just slogans that have been repeated enough times which individuals have based a very important ethical issue on. In this paper I will respond to his arguments and replace misinformation with truth, using logic and the Bible.             The first argument Randall gave in support of his position was, “It’s not a baby in the womb, but a fetus, and it is just tissue”. Now, an unborn child will be called many names by pro abortionists in order to dehumanize it. Pro abortionists will call the baby in the mother’s womb a human zygote, blastocyst, an embryo, fetus, tissue and clump of cells, anything about a baby. It is a biological fact that life begins at conception. Even pro abortionists ...
