I know itās like how God populates the world and kids raised by Christian parents are a good thing for possible future believers but...do I HAVE to have kids? Is it ok that I donāt want any?
I have a coworker who was talking about her daughter giving her grand babies and that when someone else hadnāt it was like the kid OWED them grandchildren. Like really?
I know itās a millennial thing but am I alone here? Am I wrong in my attitude?
Sounds like the accuser of the brethren day and night 24 hours . As
it is written makes him flee.
Children are a gift from the lord. Not one child born is not of his doing. Flesh seen birth to flesh Spirit birth not seen to spirit. But there are different kinds of gifts that take different kinds of work . It in one sense recommended better to not have married free from the loving burden of children to spend time with the lord . Like with Mary and Martha both needed again worshiping the better choice.
Perhaps a eunuch (not literal) with no burning desire to get physical and multiply. . working in a orphanage ? Or offering the gospel?
Matthew 19:1 For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.
Changing the status of marriage was all the help needed to make the purpose of marriage and bearing children without effect. This came as a oral tradition of Obama the religious ruler of this free country . It brought a damaging blow to the witness of God. Opening the way for the millennial thing . The removal of genders as if the kingdom of God has come. No more male nor female, Jew nor gentile.
I would think like marriage every man has his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that.
For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that. I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, it is good for them if they abide even as I.1 Corinthians 7:7-8
