unfortunately the way our legal system works today this may be our only way of overturning a stupid law. The Lord taught that we need to be innocent as doves and shrewd as serpents. If we leave it in the hands of legislators it will never get done.

I will be praying for you that the Spirit of Christ will come upon you and show you how much He loves you and how much grace and forgiveness He does have for you, and that you dont have to fear the truth, if you will submit yourself to Him and the truth. I trust that in my intercession for you that Christ through His Spirit will adjust my heart and fill it with a better understanding of who you are and how I can better minister you and others in your difficult situation. I also pray that He will increase my ability to love all He has created. God does not make mistakes like putting men in womens bodies or women in mens bodies. It has nothing to do with genetic mapping. It has everything to do with the fall of man and his sinfull nature. Good news He didnt cause it but, He can fix it if you let Him.
In Christian love...

The bible does tell us that one of the tests of the true church depends on our following the bible. 1john 1:5-10 states that God is Light, and in Him there is no darkness. The Light is the Truth and the bible is the written Word left for the church to be able to Know truth from error. First Cirinthians 2-16 tells us that we have the mind of Christ through His Spirit living in us, allowing the church the ability to Know and understand His word. Because we are human we will fall short of knowing perfectly but we do have the ability to discern truth from lies. True christian denominations (not the occults "witnesses"etc...) all have to agree on the foundation, that Jesus is the Son of God incarnated as man through the virgin birth crucified for our sins and ressurected on the third day by God the Father. As for the endless arguments over other doctirnal differences Jesus taught us through the apostle Paul in the letter to the Romans chapter 14 that what is good to you may not be good to your brother and if is your brother who is the weaker then it your responsbility not to put a stumbling block before him, but you have to be convinced in your own mind what is acceptable.

Instead of bickering over endless debates (in which both sides are in error) or whose denomination is the better one we should take on the attitude of Christ (philippians chapter 2) humble ourselves, get on our knees and pray that God strengthen all of His church so that we may have the privelege participating in His glorification. I dont ever see myself belonging to the SBC or a Charismatic congregation but I pray for all of His Children.

What Southworth Fails to realize is that the prostitutes tax collectors and other "sinners" that became intimate friends with Jesus repented of their sins and left those sinfull ways behind.
