IF IT’S NOT A BABY, YOU ARE NOT PREGNANT!
For thou hast possessed my reins (formed my inward parts, NASB; created my inmost being, NIV): thou hast covered me (knit me together, NIV; didst weave me, NASB) in my mother’s womb. I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvelous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right
If thou forebear to deliver them that are drawn unto death, and those that are ready to be slain; If thou sayest, Behold, we knew it not; doth not he that pondereth the heart consider it? and he that keepeth thy soul, doth not he know it? and shall not he render to every man according to his works?
1 THESSALONIANS 2: 11, 12
MORAL RELATIVISM: HOMOSEXUAL ITY IS AN ALTERNATIVE LIFESTYLE

Romans 1: 27, Homosexuality is unseemly Romans 1: 28, Homosexuality is the fruit of a “reprobate mind. ” 1 Cor. 6: 9, Effeminate (“male prostitutes” NIV) and abusers of themselves with mankind (homosexuals NAS) “shall not inherit the kingdom of God”
Giving no offense in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed (discredited, NASB): But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses, in stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings; . . .
That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world; holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ….
Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not; but have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God.

ESTHER’S 2 nd RESPONSE “Go, assemble all the Jew’s who are found in Susa, and fast for me; do not eat or drink for three days, night or day: I and my maidens also will fast in the same way. And thus I will go in to the king, which is not according to the law; and if I perish, I perish. ” Esther 4: 16 WHAT WILL YOUR RESPONSE BE?
WILL YOUR RESPONSE BE: Whether I live or die, I exist for the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ! To obey God is more important than to save my own life! I obey God’s Word no matter what the cost, the circumstance or the consequence!
