Advocates Push Abortion-Rights License Plate in Virginia 

RICHMOND, Va. —  Abortion-rights advocates have been unable to halt the "Choose Life" license plates in nearly two-dozen states, so now they're working to balance the bumper debate.

Activists are pushing a "Trust Women/Respect Choice" license plate in Virginia. The state would become only the fourth to offer a pro-choice plate and the first to require legislative approval for it. Most other states have administrative agencies approve specialty plates.

Supporters have threatened to sue if lawmakers don't give drivers the option... 

Bible Byte: "For You created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made." (Psalm 139:13-14, NIV)

Dear Pastor, 

Several of us relatively new members were taken by the casual reference you made to your 25^th anniversary today in leading this church. It truly speaks to your faithfulness in serving our great God and His honoring of you, one of His favored servants. 

From the first day I walked through the doors I was aware of the sweet Spirit inhabiting the sanctuary, no doubt due to your commitment to the truth and purity of the Scriptures--with no compromise. You well-characterize one quiet but mighty verse first written to Timothy by his “father,” Paul: 

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” (2 Timothy 2:15)

The irony of your 25th anniversary (and unwavering commitment to doctrinal purity) is even more pronounced in light of a Sunday Denver Post article about another church in Denver that has dwindled to few parishioners. The PCUSA (a sadly anemic denomination) hired a pleasant new lady minister who uses  “different modalities of healing and prayer, including Eastern spiritual practices.” 

Her intent is diversity and inclusiveness to pump up congregation numbers. Numbers may grow because itching ears want a soft place to land, certainly not on the Rock of Christ. But there is no doubt in my mind that The Almighty will not be in attendance. His Word clearly condemns polluting worship with counterfeit religions.

"But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction." (I Peter 2:1) 

You know that I am biologically a direct descendant of Jonathan Edwards. Had I not been adopted out my maiden name would have been Edwards. But what you may not know is that I was adopted into the Peabody/Brewster families of Boston. Both these families have long, influential histories in American religion and culture. 

Ephraim Peabody (1807-1856) was the rector of Boston's King's Chapel which was pivotal in the spread of Unitarianism.  A great-grandfather, Francis Greenwood Peabody, and great-uncle, Charles Eliot, both influential Unitarians and Harvard presidents, did much to liberalize and deflect American faith away from the truth of the Trinity and towards social activism (and its self-righteousness) as one primary purpose for religion. 

I was rescued in 1974 out of the Unitarianism and consequently, I’m overly sensitive to apostasy and greatly appreciative of those pastors who hold fast to the true faith.  You are one of those and thus God’s good blessing is on your ministry. 

Happy 25th Anniversary and thank you.

With warmest regards,

Ellen
