Perversion in the Family

God made your parents pure
Your parents made you perverted

God did not make you perverted and dead in sin, your parents did…and you add to that perversion every day. Your very existence became putrid and rotten in the nostrils of God. He could not stand you near him to comfort you! This means that man is in a dreadful disaster that will culminate in ultimate and final death- separation from God forever. His only way out is that he gets new life through Jesus. Jesus said: "I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit…`You must be born again.'

Brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ:

1. Every day you must thank the Lord for your rescue from sin and for your eternal life. Boast about him on Facebook. Talk about him longingly in your lunchroom at work, if you are permitted. Dine with him each Lord’s Day. Commune with him each morning or night.

2. Every day you must work and pray that your children will grab the promise God made to them at their baptism – that Jesus Christ will wash away their sins if they put their trust in him. And in doing so, that the condemnation for their inherited sins might be removed. Every day work and pray that God might rescue that person whom you love but is outside of Christ’s kingdom – that spouse, co-worker, or friend. You have right of access because you are Christ’s child. Use your privileges for good and to advance Christ’s cause.
