Wherever injustice thrives, there also will poverty. Because injustices pervade our world, the poor live among us all year long and not just at Christmas.

If Yeshua’s Mother Was Not a Virgin, Would You Still Believe He Is God?: The Implications of Women’s Sexuality for the Christian Religion.

allthinxchristian

What does it matter to Yeshua's claims to divinity that his mother was a pregnant virgin? What would it have mattered if he'd been birthed by a non-virgin woman? Would his divinity have been questioned, rejected or mattered less? If yes, then we are looking at a situation where salvation of humanity depends on women's sexuality.

Introduction to Advent 2022 Series

allthinxchristian

Change is constant and important for the person who professes faith in Christ, for such a one must contend with and surrender their previous allegiance to many patterns and systems in/of the world (1 John 2:15-17). Especially patterns and systems which do not align with the Christ message of love of neighbor. -Oghene'tega Swann

When God Sends Us Those Foreigners

"It's a despicable human practice that the most despised group in a despised people group are the women of that people group. For some strange reason, dishonoring the women of a despised tribe is proof of how low that tribe is. No wonder enemy groups degrade the women of their opponents through rape. Yes, women always have it worse when it comes to any marginalized group!" -Rev. Tega Swann
