In the original Greek language of the New Testament, one case of the word for fool is "moron." In 1 Cor. 1:25, you will see the Greek word for moron. |

I am weak, fallen--a sinner. I have done wrong to people, and I have offended God. God knew all of this--all about me--before the foundation of the world. So, He sent His Son to die and pay the price I couldn't for my sin. When Jesus rose from the dead, sin's days became numbered. My sin will soon be extinct: Christ's stainless robes will be my only garments.
He didn't stop with just saving me; He is using me in His plan for the salvation of others--not for my glory (I am owed none) but for His own (He deserves all glory.)
Why God chose to love me is a mystery. But I am and will be eternally thankful.
Why God works through me in spite of my weakness is also a mystery. But I am and will be eternally thankful. |

The pro-lifer acknowledges that pre-born children have a right to be born, and that is their power. They are helpless to assert that power, and therefore someone must assert it for them. |
