day no. 15,687: ancient politics

"Thou shalt not murder a child by abortion nor kill them when born, thou shalt not covet thy neighbors goods." -- The Didache, J.B. Lightfoot translation

Few things could better describe the progressive impulse than death and envy culture, both of which are prohibited by God in His Word and are directly here refuted in one of Christianity's earliest teachings, The Didache. 

It is interesting that The Didache specifically clarifies that abortion and infanticide are examples of murder and that these would specifically be followed by an admonition against covetous envy. Abortion and Socialism defy God's Law. Socialism is institutionalized envy and Abortion is institutionalized murder. Those who promote either do so in direct defiance of God's Law and the clear teachings of the early church. Murder is murder, even if it is an unborn child. Envy is envy even if it is being done by the government. No one can pass a law that nullifies God's. Even if murder is declared health care and envy is declared redistribution, it is still murder and envy; and no caveats are provided by God with respect to the murder of the unborn or the pillaging of  your neighbor's fruitfulness.
