Satan said "Self Esteem" but God said "Others Esteem"

2 Timothy 3:1-5 "3 But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. 2 For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, 4 treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5 having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people. Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,"

Abortion rights, did not cause women to get abortions. When the Roe v Wade decision came down in 1973, as soon as the restraints were removed for abortion, the industry exploded with business.

The decision to allow it did not cause people to rush out and get abortion, they did rush out to do it, but it was their evil hearts that wanted the freedom, in the first place.

Had the women been moral and loving godly women the new law would not have been an issue, they would not have gotten abortions. The law would have been irrelevant.

When we give people freedom to sin, their hearts will reveal them by what they decide to do with that freedom.

We see now just how wicked the women were in our country by their response to the freedom to kill their own babies.

I can't think of anything more heinous, than murdering by torture innocent helpless babies for the sake of personal gain, the gain on the part of the doctors and the gain on the part of the mothers who want the freedom to be immoral without the responsibility that comes with it.

This mentality of freedom to kill for personal gain is no different from that of Hitler and many other wicked leaders down through history.

I didn't know what abortion was when the decision was made to allow it. I was innocent in these things. When the news caster came on the televsion to announce this new law, I turned to my husband and asked him, "what is abortion."

My husband told me that is was the killing of the baby in the womb, if the mother didn't want it. I was horrified and told my husband, "that law won't go anywhere because no woman would do that to her own child." I was 19 at the time and knew that a baby was a human being , no one had to tell me that.

How innocent and wrong I was. I had no idea that there were women in the world who didn't want their baby. I wasn't yet born again when I knew the principle of women naturally loving their babies. It was a God given inner instinct almost, to protect your baby.

55 million murdered people now, from this "freedom." And we think that God should bless us?

We have lost all natural affection for children, parents, elderly and the infirmed.

Parents are splitting their families because they cannot get along with one another any better than spoiled children get along with other children.

Watch how many people will fight and argue with you over divorce and remarriage and that alone will prove my point. Too many people are living a completely self absorbed condition to be able to submit. They are fighting for all the wrong things, their rights, not righteousness toward God but for their personal rights.

Ephesians 5:21 "Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God."

When we are clamoring for our personal rights, we have no time to think of others. When we are thinking of only self, then we will not humble ourselves before a holy God and even less with another person.

In our culture manipulation is the norm, to get what we want and we will stop at nothing including murdering tiny helpless babies.

We no longer have self control in anything.

God says in 2 Peter 1:6 "and in your knowledge, self-control, and in your self-control, perseverance, and in your perseverance, godliness,"

Without self control there can be no deference to others or to God. Self control means ignoring our own feelings and desires to do what is right for others.

We need to change our mantra from "self esteem" to "others esteem." The devil was very cleaver in using self esteem to manipulate an entire generation into loving themselves above others.

Luke 10:27 "And he answering said, You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself."

Where in this verse does it say to love your self first? It does not, the devil lied to us for the last 40 years when he said to love yourself first.

Many people who claim to be Christians would say the don't believe in "self esteem", but at closer inspection, we see by the way they indulge their children, lacking Biblical ways of discipline, that they infact, have bought into the self esteem teaching hook, line and sinker.
