Greetings, everyone!
My response to this contest is that, I am so happy that I am not living my life according to the system of this world but to the system of the kingdom, and the manual given to us as the Holy Bible has made me understand that; "we are meant to be fruitful, multiple and replenish the earth". It has spiritual and physical meaning which we need to understand and do right as the Bible says.
If the worldview says, we shouldn't bring to birth again because of how the world is going crazy in the insurgency, insecurity, climate change, and many other issues that tend to bring war to the world. Scripturally, this is not so; the Bible says that in the midst of trouble, we will be victorious.
However, it's right for people to have children, like two to four children are okay for the parents to be able to care for them, train them in the ways of the Lord, teach them the morals and the principles they need to know that will help them to grow and fit well into society without any scandals.
The reason we are having a crazy world is because of the way they are being trained and the way they grew up with that mentality to commit crimes in society today. Had it been, they were properly trained by their parents or guidance, we wouldn't have experienced all these troubles in this world today. We are in an Adamic world, so we ought to see wars and troubles.
The best thing as parents is to give birth to a good number of children that we can care for and give proper training to them, and watch them succeed in life, you will enjoy the fruit of your labours and that of the society too.
Moreso, giving birth to children is a blessing, the world shouldn't stop you from giving birth. Bringing them up and teaching them character is the best, teaching them the word of God, and giving them a formal education.
I am very single, and by the grace of God when I get married to my husband, I would like to give birth to my children, but not the kind of birth that my fore grandparents gave, nooo. Two or three is the number I can go with it.
Therefore, I refuse to submit to the worldview on childbirth but I submit to the word of God and to my dear husband.
