Hope and renewal

Of course, in Jesus Christ, there is never a hopeless situation, for He can redeem anything.

I am happy to report (although terribly late to make a difference in the polls, but never too late to help in the years to come since this stem cell research and cloning does not seem to be going away any time soon) that after meeting with some of the leadership here at seminary, our position on posting the signs (see the article below on Amendment 2 and Resurrecting Auschwitz I) has changed. Praise God for His work in changing hearts and minds for such a crucial opportunity to display the truth of God and love for His Creations: these little people, growing people, who are too little to stand up for their right to life and hope for us big people to stand up for them and preserve their every need. May God continue to grant to us and all Christians the biblical discernment needed for quick decisions and dialogue with our communities and cultures, so that we may witness faithfully and lovingly, yet with strength and power as we fight not flesh, but the powers and principalities of this world (Eph. 6:12) in God's will. May we so study His Word that we may know God's will and respond in faith.

ESV Romans 12:1 I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. 2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. 3 For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned.
