Our Intellectual Tower

Suddenly I realized what God meant:

“…this is what they begin to do; now nothing that they propose to do will be withheld from them.” (Gen 11:6)

My wife showed me an article today on MSNBC about a woman who had a surgery altering her breasts and began taking testosterone because she wants to be a man. Even though she wanted to be a man, and she pursued this desire by physically altering her body, she decided not to have her female reproductive organs removed...because she wanted to one day have a baby. Well, the first attempt at having a baby resulted in her fallopian tubes being removed, but undaunted, she is again pregnant.

Satan has told us, “You will not surely die. For God knows…your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God…” (Gen 3:4) Deceived in our pride, as Adam and Eve were, we are empowered, and simply because sin is within our grasp and it seems desirable to us, we cast off the love, wisdom, and guidance of God, and show no restraint as we strive to exalt and justify the self by any and every means.

Have Mercy, Lord.
