QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ON FAMILY PLANNING

TEXT: JEREMIAH 1: 4-6

SUNDAY DECEMBER 10TH

Key verse: Jeremiah 1: 6 “Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! Behold I cannot speak; for I am a child.”
Question: If contraceptives are used to prevent a child from being born, is it not wrong? Also, since God decides the number of children for a couple, why not allow it since Adam and Eve did not use contraceptives or any doctor’s advice on how to do it? 
Answer: God is not against family planning. But if Jeremiah’s parents had done family planning, would they not have affected Jeremiah? No. If God is in a matter, He will protect it. There are people who say, “I don’t know how this one came, it was an accident. If God is involved, He will make a way for himself. Don’t say you are blocking God’s will. No, you can’t block His will. Even herbal medicine is an accident; not everyone that takes the herbal medicine gets healed. Some will even say my legs started swelling since I started taking herbal medicine. All by accident. Some medical doctors do not approve herbal medicine because there is poor dosage and it is dangerous. Everything is dangerous because even if you know dosage there is still danger there. Life is a risk; with prayer the Lord will see you through.
Question: For women that are not able to have children, doctors in some hospitals insert sperm into the woman and when it is time to give birth to the child, they operate to deliver the child. Sir, Is it evil or sinful?
Answer: Does the method work without immorality? Any pure knowledge that does not involve sin and produces results is okay just like we can breed varieties of fat oranges with much water. They don’t occur naturally but knowledge has increased so we can have them. Are they not good for us? Taking sperm from a man and implanting it in a woman for a child to be born is a good thing for us. There is nothing wrong with that, even if it is not from the husband but from another man; a donor. This wisdom can make childless couples, joyful parents of children.

Thought for the day: God makes the barren a joyful mother of children

Song for the day: He is a miracle-working God…

Bible reading for the day: Hosea 5-8; Revelation 1

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...

God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider  Sunday May 12th Text: Jeremiah 3: 15 – 17 Key verse: Ezekiel 33: 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel.  Receive the word that will change you, restore you, reestablish you and give you back the hope of eternal life. Come back! The Lord is pleading. Can you see the effort of God in your life? And can you see madness in your life; resisting every effort God is making. God is calling you. Retrace your ways. Follow the good old way. Go and confess those things, do not keep them. Your problem is, you want to serve God but you have not confessed your sins openly because of shame, fear and  pride which shall be dissolved in hell. That is where your problem is. Yes, you wa...
