Hello anewme,
Nice to meet you. You seem like such a sweet person. *hugs*
What I have to say is not directed to you in any way. But, your comment made me think of some stories in the Bible about children.
When I read things like this I DO WANT JEHOVAH TO DO SOMETHING!!!!!
The world is guilty of exploiting children for money. Sex slaves, murder, internet pornography, rape, sodomy etc. is done to children around the globe on a daily basis, minute by minute. If Jehovah is there, he has been watching.
btw...watching these things is a form of deviance.
Slavery was common in the bible as were sex slaves and the murder of little children.
However, you may purchase male or female slaves from among the foreigners who live among you. You may also purchase the children of such resident foreigners, including those who have been born in your land. You may treat them as your property, passing them on to your children as a permanent inheritance. You may treat your slaves like this...Leviticus 25:44-46 NLT
When a man sells his daughter as a slave, she will not be freed at the end of six years as the men are. If she does not please the man who bought her, he may allow her to be bought back again. But he is not allowed to sell her to foreigners, since he is the one who broke the contract with her. And if the slave girl's owner arranges for her to marry his son, he may no longer treat her as a slave girl, but he must treat her as his daughter. If he himself marries her and then takes another wife, he may not reduce her food or clothing or fail to sleep with her as his wife. If he fails in any of these three ways, she may leave as a free woman without making any payment. (Exodus 21:7-11 NLT)
So this is what the LORD Almighty says about them: "I will punish them! Their young men will die in battle, and their little boys and girls will starve. Not one of these plotters from Anathoth will survive, for I will bring disaster upon them when their time of punishment comes." (Jeremiah 11:22-23 NLT)
And the sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and plundered the city, because their sister had been defiled; they took their flocks and their herds, their asses, and whatever was in the city and in the field; all their wealth, all their little ones and their wives, all that was in the houses, they captured and made their prey. (Genesis 34:21-31 NLT)
Jehovah has been watching for a long time.
