I want to tell you about two families. These are fictional families created by combining several families I know. You tell me which one affords a stay at home mom.
Both families attend church regularly and pay their tithes. They are even both in the ministry of their respective churches.
Family 1: Dad earns about $60,000. They own a 2500sq ft home for their two children, dog, three cats and canary. They drive new cars, replacing them every five years or so when the last one is paid off. They buy their clothes at Pennys and their food at the local grocery store.
Family 2: Dad earns about $40,000. They rent a 1000sq ft condo for their three children, one dog, two cats and three parakeets. Her parents bought her a used car for her birthday two years ago and he bought one at the local auction for $600 cash for him. They buy their clothes off the wal-mart sales rack while doing their grocery shopping or they go to thrift stores.
Can you guess which one has the stay at home mom? Can you guess which one has their children in a form of private education and which is sending their children to “free” public school?
I will tell you which is which next time I write.
Meanwhile, think about which one describes your family. If I were to look at your financial records, what would your decisions say about your priorities?

Seriously, you're self-righteousness is getting overwhelming!
ReplyDeleteIn what capacity is anyone else's financial priorities any of your concern? Who cares about which one has a stay-at-home mother and which family's mother works outside the home? What about other concerns or priorities, such as their relationship with each other? And, more importantly, to God?
We don't know if the fictitious family that you are demonizing simply because the wife may possibly work, or because they send their children to the local public school, isn't the healthier of the two families? What about the potential abuse that the other family, deemed correct with God simply because they share your "priorities"? We don't know about what happens behind closed doors in their home, so what makes you think you're so qualified to blog this disgusting vile?
BettySue, I am begging you to change course and open your heart to a direction of compassion and love rather than contempt and distrust of God.
Life is not so black and white- which is why God is in control and not you or I. Let God do his job! I beg of you- and leave other people's priorities alone. It's none of your business!
I can guarantee that neither of these families are abusive. I MADE THEM UP!
ReplyDeleteWhy are you so angry? Is God calling you to go home and my writing convicts you?
Here is the whole deal:
God has called me to preach to women and the medium He has given me at this time is the internet. He has told me to draw American Christian’s attention to the fact that they are self-righteous, spoiled brats! They think they NEED big houses and new cars and fashionable clothes. What they NEED is to fall on their knees and repent for putting their own desires above God’s priorities.
Read your Bible! God calls us to a righteous life. He tells us to carefully guide our children into His love. He tells us not to give Satan these precious gifts.
Get your Bible and give me scripture, any scripture that would justify a CHRISTIAN COUPLE giving their children to ATHIESTS to educate. Explain this logic.
The first reason women give me for why they are not homemakers is because they “Can’t afford it.” For every family I have heard this from, this is BOLOGNA. I have had a woman look me in the eye and tell me she couldn’t afford to stay home because her hubby didn’t earn enough, while her hubby earns 50% more than Mine! And we have three times the number of children! The fact is they were putting their “Pride of life and lust of the eye” above following God’s word.
I will deal with other reasons later.
“17 Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me.
18 When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand.
19 Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul.
20 Again, When a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumbling-block before him, he shall die: because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thine hand.
21 Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he is warned; also thou hast delivered thy soul.”
God has told me to preach these things. He is warning American Christians to repent or else. The time is NOW. If I don’t preach what He tells me, I will be punished.
If you don’t like it, you don’t have to read.
OK, i just now read your other comment where you explain why you are so angry. I need to cook dinner right now so it will be tomorrow before i can answer, but i will:-)
ReplyDeleteI do know the offer for prayer was real. so was the offer for you to show me scripture. I have reasons for wishing there was one to justify public school, but more on that tomorrow.
