SAVE THE CHILDREN:

 

Child abuse in too many communities is rising to a level beyond disgrace. It is simply EVIL AND DISGUSTING!.  The "Momma’s" boyfriend, who is not the daddy of the children, is usually the one who commits the sexual, emotional, mental and physical abuses upon the children: both the boy child and the girl child of the home.

 

Why does this happen to so many of our children now-a-days?

    Could it be that more and more men and women do not respect the

    God given call to love and marriage between man and woman?

    Could it be that sex has become a social sport, where every man and

    every woman is a trophy to have and hold for a moment and gain

    bragging rights and move on to the next sex game and moment?

    Or is sex, used more and more as a mean for some financial ends?

    (You know what we call those who practice sex with that philosophy in

    mind.)  These are sex games practiced by both women and men.

 

The Children:

The children resulting from the sex acts of these sex games/sports, unfortunately are too often referred to as: "accidents" made by the sex "Players", are treated like accidents. Too many of these children are emotionally, spiritually, morally, intellectually, and physically neglected and become bait for abuses by evil people. Too many grow up being like the people who made them.  The vicious cycle is rolling.

 

True parents, true mothers and true fathers do not neglect, they instead practice the God given commands to raise children up in the "Love and instructions of our Lord Jesus Christ", Ephesians 6:4b.  True mothers and true fathers get to know God, so they can know how to love, instruct and protect their children.  (This is a universal truth, which should be known and practiced regardless of one’s color, race, class or ethnicity.)

 

I encourage all people, with children in their lives, Turn to God; Stay with God; Go to a bible teaching/preaching church; Study to know God and practice His teachings.  Raise children in the Love and Instructions of Our Lord as written in the Word and Spirit of God.   Then, on one hand, we will begin to see a great reduction in physical, emotional, mental, and sexual abuses of our children; and on the other hand, we will begin to see a great increase of happy children who will  reach their full potential spiritually, morally, physically, emotionally, mentally, and intellectually as designed by God.

 

Study God's Word in His Spirit;

Do not be misled by the misinformed.
