Does God allow abortions?

I'm deeply disturbed at the influx of Pastor Anderson videos posted on this site. Anyone who tells his congregation not to pray for a homosexuals salvation, but to pray that they go to hell, should never ever be considered a person of spiritual authority.

That attitude has actually thoroughly infused itself broadly across American evangelicals.

God plans and executes every action in the Cosmos.
His Will be done.

You aren't getting the simple point I'm making here.
In order to not end up thrown into The Lake of Fire, you have to disobey the authorities who make getting it legally mandatory.

You seem to be claiming that every woman who has not had an abortion is a lawbreaker, and doubly so if she's a Christian.

I guess things are not as they seem then.

From what I read..all will take the mark.
There is no call to resist it in what I read.

You be the judge:

1 Peter 2:13-17
Be subject for the Lord's sake to every human institution, whether it be to the emperor as supreme, or to governors as sent by him to punish those who do evil and to praise those who do good. For this is the will of God, that by doing good you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish people. Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants of God. Honor everyone. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the emperor.

Titus 3:1
Remind them to be submissive to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work,

There is a huge difference between "Allowing" and "Supporting".

Does God "allow" man to sin? Absolutely.
Does God "support" sin? Absolutely Not.

God allows man to persue their free will... it doesn't mean He is "okay" with every way we use it.

Paul makes an appeal to Roman law because he has been turned over to Roman law.

But in fact, if Paul had intended to obey Roman law, he would not have entered Philippi in the first place.

Lots of times Paul seems messed up.

As I read it, the people of that time will have no choice.
So, every one of them will end up thrown into The Lake of Fire? Refusing the mark is an option.

Revelation 20:4 KJV
And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

You claimed people cannot judge what is right in most of your other posts for the last several years since you abandoned the truth.

God hates abortion, and everyone who ever goes along with taking a life , of them their own life is required.

My stand is that God's will is worked out perfectly in all events.
Creation is not thing God "visits by request".

In Nazi Germany it was required by law to report the presence of Jews to authorities. What do you suppose God thought about that institutional policy?!

Anti-Jewish Legislation in Prewar Germany
Who knows. God did wipe Israel out multiple times. Also did you know that Hitler was the first person to propose a nation of Israel? He offered to pay for Israeli settlers but the zionists refused.

The Jewry in Germany fed fed off the starving people, and while I'm not saying the Nazis were justified in the supposed genocide, the property confiscated from the Jews alone was enough to bring Germany out of depression and fund two years worth of mobilization.

Anderson has some skewed doctrines, but some of the doctrines he teaches are pure Bible. Like with anyone, discernment is needed when listening to his preaching.

Well he has claimed everyone in the Orthodox Church is going to hell. So there's that too. Plus why would I want to listen to anyone's opinion on scripture when it has clearly had no positive effect on their life? I mayaswell listen to a Muslim teach me scripture.

Says someone who always messes up in their life as posted ! Whoever rejects Paul, has already rejected God the Father and Jesus.

Sorry. I cannot judge your salvation for you on sight or deed. I'm not qualified.

1 Samuel 16:7
But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not look on his appearance or on the height of his stature, because I have rejected him. For the Lord sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart.”
