Just today a friend of mine shared with her world via Facebook pictures of her newborn grandson. I commented in part, every baby is a gift from GOD, and here adding, no exceptions. I know it to my bones. And from there formed these words (and I wondered where can I share them?):

League
In this social climate in which we now reside, what do we do with this?
Mark 16:15 (KJV) 15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. source
See that word creature? It snagged my attention. I looked it up in Strong’s Interlinear Bible Search.

-
- to make habitable, to people, a place, region, island
- to found a city, colony, state
- to create
- of God creating the worlds
- to form, shape, i.e. to completely change or transform
- to make habitable, to people, a place, region, island
-
And so it does! The Gospel of JESUS CHRIST when believed and He is received, He within transforms people, places, regions, islands, cities, colonies, states.
And that is why this social climate so hates JESUS CHRIST.
And now the question is do we obey the Text or are we in league with this present social climate?

Mark 16: 14 Later, Jesus appeared to the eleven [disciples] themselves as they were reclining at the table; and He called them to account for their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they had not believed those who had seen Him after He had risen [from death]. source
This is beautiful and encouraging and wonderful and comforting to me. Did I get your attention?
It’s true. It is. Do you want to know why?
He called them to account for their unbelief and hardness of heart.
I want Him to call me to account early, as early as possible, for any unbelief in my being, because when I repent I will be saved from untold horrors. A consistently repentant heart cannot be a hardened heart!
And there’s another reason. When He calls me to account I am again assured that I belong to Him. I am His and He is mine. Hebrews 12:7-11
