How should Christians treat the child who has two dads?

[prophecystudent]

To find out how much of a threat Christians are to my child and to my family. Should I regard you as harmless?

I notice that you decline to condemn the violent killing of children and infants after a direct challenge to do so. Why are you allowing yourself to be outclassed by an atheist in this regard? Are you "soft" on child murder?

Please calm down. Of course killing a child is wrong and I don't know of any RATIONAL person who would disagree with that statement.

Now I have a question for you:

Since you broached the subject of child murder, do you feel the same way about dismembering a living, but unborn, child?

I did not say anyone was garbage. It is inappropriate for any person to live in sin, because we are created to live far above that level.

with even that with you said (i apologize for a late response. i just checked in on the thread) you have to find the measure of living in sin that is ok to let a child be around as compared to another certain kind of living in sin that isn't ok for a child to be around.

so i would have to ask next, what is the standard that you see?

It's not the child's fault that his parents are living a sinful lifestyle. We ought to treat them fairly, but every child needs to hear the truth. How to lovingly break it to them remains a question that I do not have a answer for. BTW, I believe the same thing about children of cohabitating fornicators and adulterers, whether the adulterers whitewashed over their sin with a marriage ceremony or not.

It is because of sin that we "ALL" live a sinful lifestyle.

And Yes you are correct, every child, (and adult) needs to hear the truth.

But pointing fingers or scolding people is not the answer. (Luke 9:54 - "Lord, do you want us to call fire down from heaven to destroy them?")

The only way that we can reach anyone is by teaching the truth. Many will follow, many will not.

But in this case, the child, the child has got to be treated tenderly, and with love. This child is in a situation where he/she is being exposed to a very dangerous and destructive way of life.

There will be much more exposure to such things in this childs life. So right now, it is imperative, that this child be treated with love, and his/her safety and security be reafirmed.

At some point, the child needs to know that his "dads" are living in sin, but as to how the child should be treated - with justice and mercy, same as any other child.

I agree and should be treated like every other child should with much love and support
