All humans are created equal ...but the error comes in saying all truth is created by humans ...therefore all truth should be equally respected or tolerated, and all values and beliefs are to be elevated to a position worthy of respect.

In order to be tolerant by the 'new' definition, you have to agree that another person's position is just as valid as your own.  

Well, I don't have a problem with that at all.  I'm not going to change the meaning, just the perspective.  How about you agree that your perspective is just as 'invalid' as mine?  

Only God is valid.

I will never believe it is okay to own another person. Slavery is always wrong.  Abortion is wrong too.  People are people ...and that fact is not changed by color, size, or age.

Exodus 8:1 ..."And the LORD spoke unto Moses, 'Go unto Pharaoh and say unto him, thus saith the LORD, let my people go ..."

But today, the Bible is being restricted.  Who would be the only one who'd want that?  Who was behind the Roman Empire's effort to erase any thoughts of Jesus?

The answer goes back to a time when someone wanted an elite, elevated status.  Isaiah 14:12, says, "I will ascend to heaven; I will raise my throne above the stars of God ...I will make myself like the Most High."

And now, the main incentive is to make us slaves to sin ...especially without knowing it.  To say that which is wrong for one person may not be wrong for another, ignores the definition of sin ...and actually promotes going against God.

But, God is for us ...in loving us so much, He sent His own Son to serve us and pay the debt.  We are not indentured servants ...our debt has been paid.  We are free to serve ...but, who do we serve?  God does not claim to own us ....rather he gives us free choice to serve Him.  Yet, someone else would want to claim us ...in hopes that we never claim to know Jesus. 

Would this one who opposes Jesus ...also claim, "Let my people go ..." to where he is going? 

I am thankful that God loves us so much that He sent us Jesus ...and I believe in the promises of what He says, that all of us who desire to follow Him will follow Him to an eternal paradise He has prepared for us.

Praise God ...
