New Creation (Recalcitrant) - not quite sure of this poster's status but am a little anxious concerning that child.
Quote:
As a deacon it's my job to visit the enfeabled and elderly in their homes to see if the church can assist them. This morning, I stopped in on a man whose wife is pregnant

It's the enfeebled and elderly bit. How old is this libertine? By "elderly" I would understand over 80. Feeble men are not noted for their energy in matters of child production nor are octogenarian women. How old is this wife? To even
own gym-shorts would place her with the under 20's I'd assume and I am concerned that the child might not qualify for membership of any Godly congregation.

We know that the slattern mother is paraded about dressed like some bus-stop harlot in lycra & boastful pride
I JOHN 2
14 I haue written vnto you, fathers, because ye haue knowen him that is from the beginning. I haue written vnto you, young men, because yee are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and yee haue ouercome the wicked one.
15 Loue not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man loue the world, the loue of the Father is not in him.
16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

is this woman proud of her condition? Or ashamed.
I understand that "gym shorts" are featured strongly on certain television programmes:
Ærobics Oz Style and
Healthy Breakfast Cereal adverts and just about any excuse to get lissom females bending and stretching even
dogfood commercials show undersized-lycra clad strumpets preening with their glossy dobermans
or fluffy poodles
or vivacious bull terriers and they never show much above the waistline (especially in the latter example) I have heard so we don't have to imagine the revolting sight confronting any knockers on
that door do we.
No we don't.
It seems that Mr Creation may have ceased contact with the congregation.

It's my duty as Deacon to report any unusual activity in the congregation to the senior pastor.

He was pooh-poohed. But further investigation into the child's paternity would seem to be in order and a denunciation at the "dedication" service or whatever liberal pseudoChristians call it, could present a wonderful opportunity for revival.
I will focus on this aspect of Mr Creation's dilemma in my prayers [subject to pastoral approval].
HEBREWS 4
13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked, and opened vnto the eyes of him with whome wee haue to doe.
14 Seeing then that wee haue a great high Priest, that is passed into the heauens, Iesus the Sonne of God, let vs hold fast our profession.
15 For wee haue not an high Priest which cannot bee touched with the feeling of our infirmities: but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sinne.
16 Let vs therefore come boldly vnto the throne of grace, that wee may obtaine mercy, and finde grace to helpe in time of need.
