IVF

God created all things. He is the Creator and we are His creation. Medical science has found answers to creating new life. Is this ethically sound? If man can create life why need God. Man has the same ability as God because man was created in His image. This potential has problems because it puts man on the same level as God. When boundaries are transgressed problems become insoluble. Boundaries are there to keep creation in order. This order when transgressed will result in disorder. The disorder will have consequences that will affect generations to come. Meddling with creation is like transgressing boundaries. IVF is an example of man's attempt to play God. This is not a natural method but because it works it is acceptable. It has brought happiness to many infertile couples. Yet some solutions are not ethically sound. Like a slow slide down a slippery slope IVF  has opened doors to many other vices. These are ignored because of the possibility of life successes. What about the losses of embryos? This is an experiment and loss is part of the equation. Success is the goal. How does God view this? God allows this. It is not His perfect will but His permissive will. God permits a lot of things but man has to face the consequences. I want God's perfect will to be done on earth as it is in heaven. In this context I believe that IVF is not in God's perfect will.

GENDER CONFUSION

Lord you made man and woman. You created them to populate the world. So what went wrong when the desires of man turned to man and woman to woman? Sin enters the heart of man and turned his natural desires into himself. He became turned inwards and all his desires became only to serve the I. We became I and the world now has become so inward oriented that it is killing itself through the process of introspection. This regressive tendency will be seen and experienced where sin abounds. Man turned inwards becomes a monster. He covers his nakedness with good things but his heart is evil. This is why Jesus came to die so His blood shed on the Cross can set us free from the power of sin. Sin reversed brings life and not death. Death works to bring destruction but life works to bring hope and deliverance from the power of sin. Only Jesus can save and deliver us from the power of death. Sin has power over you because it has the power of death. Jesus came and delivered us from the fear of death. It is the fear of death that works to bring disease and disorder into your life. Now you have the power to reverse these inward directed tendencies through the blood of Jesus.
