Suicide, Murder; It's all okay.....?

  1. The movie “Paradise Now” tells a tale of two Palestinians which are recruited to become suicide bombers. Hollywood named it this year’s best foreign language film at the Golden Globe Awards. Personally, I consider these folks to be Homicide bombers -- their purpose is to kill others folks.
  2. The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 on Tuesday that (Oregon) doctors could legally prescribe overdoses to patients who wanted to kill themselves.

These are sad commentaries of our world's condition today. Life is so cheap.

The problem is that in one case murder is commited out of hate. The second case has legalized murder by a doctor upon request, due to sickness. Both of these are related.

Death and sickness were never a part of the original creation. They were introduced into this world through the disobedience of Adam. Christ delivered us from these curses, yet people still want to claim the unnatural, rather than the natural.

Why? because they're still doing what Adam did, listening to Satan. John 10:10 tells us that Satan came to kill, steal, and destroy; Christ came that we might have life, and life so full that it can't be contained.

Praise God.
