What is happening with the Bush family? Jeb Bush awards Hillary Clinton with a Liberty Medal, Laura Bush endorses same-sex marriage, and George W. Bush is soft-pedaling. The good news is that Rick Perry is fighting for life in Texas. Kevin Swanson also notes that worldviews matter when it comes to adoption. When the state departments have a messed-up worldview, Christian adoptions are hampered and children's lives are destroyed.

Great Broadcast! Great discussion on the beauty and blessing of adoption and its direct tie to the Gospel of Christ. A great admonition to Christians for seeing adoption from the viewpoint of our Heavenly Father and what He has expressed in His Word. A very sobering reminder of the utter destruction that can and does occur when adoption is coupled with ungodly and shameful people and deeds. Finally, the last few minutes of the message sounded like presumption, and I counsel greater care and caution here. There's little difference in a Reformed believer presuming that their paedo-baptized children, by virtue of being their physical children and having been baptized as infants, will (or has a better shot at) inherent the Kingdom of God...and the Arminian who tells everyone that Jesus loves them and has a wonderful plan for their life. Either view ultimately denies Biblical truth as expressed in Rom. 9:10-13 or John 1:13 - "who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of GOD." Sola Gratia, Sola Fide, Solus Christus!
