Women bearing Gimps, Mongs and Assorted Cripples -
02-05-2013, 07:55 PM
About a year ago, I was sitting feeding the dog portions of veal cutlet and considering World Hunger, when the ‘phone rang. It was the Limbows who wanted to discuss a small matter with me as a Pastor at Landover. Of course, I invited them round and welcomed them into the visitors’ anteroom.
The problem was rather personal, but under the “Landover Pastors’ Advice Agreement – terms of confidentiality.” I can share it with you.
You may remember that the Limbows already have two children who are subnormal, blind, deaf and dumb, and now wished my advice on trying for a real child. (I'll add here that I have never seen the two creatures as they are not allowed in church because they are so upsetting.)
Now, a Pastor has a duty of care in such circumstances. There is a balance to be made between the duty upon the one hand for a Christian to have his wife bear his sons and, on the other, the lifetime of drudgery, medical bills, equipment costs, transport costs, restricted freedom, absence of social life, sleepless nights, heartache, urine and fecal mess, stress of witnessing constant and unrelenting pain, etc., etc. So, when I heard the words, “Pastor, will God bless us this time?” My reply was, as always:
“God moves in a mysterious way. His Ways are not ours; a life is a blessing no matter what life. Any trials you may go through merely strengthen you and make you better people.
Take your two present gimps. The Almighty Himself has seen fit to present you with a test, are you refusing that test and refusing the Lord? Are you so mistrusting of Jesus that you are here questioning? Or is it reassurance you wish?
If it is reassurance, then I repeat the promise of Jesus that God will never give you more than you can bear and, if you want help, then The Lord is always there to give it. He strengthens your character, He is there as a friend, He is there to lean and rely upon – what more can you need?”
There was the usual pause as all this sank in and Mr Limbow said, “But what if it turns out to be … to be …” He turned to Mrs Limbow and nodded, “…be … like the other two?”
I must admit that I was disappointed that they had obviously not heard a word I was saying but took this in my stride, “Mr & Mrs Limbow, it is your duty to have children – that is why the Lord God created the institution of marriage – not for the slaking of animal lusts! But,” I added thoughtfully, “you probably don’t have any time for that sort of thing between tending to your two daughters’ needs.
Go forth, go forth with my blessing and multiply. That is my advice – all will be well.” And I showed them to the door.
Now, it was a year later that I heard the news that Mr Limbow had shot his wife, his two daughters, the newly born son (who seemed to be suffering the same way as the girls) and then shot himself.
A tragedy. I wept. How is it that people can lose faith so easily? How is it that Satan can ever enter the soul of a Christian? It was quite possible that he was already under Satan's thrall when he spoke to me!
Can anyone explain this?

Sounds like Mr. Limbow had a severe crisis of faith. It may be why his children were born messed up in the first place.
Or was he a sinner? Or a bastard? One can never know sometimes.

Wow, just Wow, Pastor.
I hear a heart wrenching story like that and to think a family has such horrible things happen to it. My mind races, wondering what terrible deeds they must of done to anger God so much.
I applaud Mr. Limbow for his efforts at cleansing his family of the tainted souls. Why after he resolved the problem, God chose to kill Mr. Limbow is just an an example of the mysterious way He works. At least he is with God in Heaven now and no longer suffering because of his wife and 'children'. Females, they will be the death of us all.
Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
Amos 3:6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?
Numbers 21:6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
Matthew 10:35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
Matthew 10:36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.

In this thread, I cover the reasons why The Lord creates deformed and retarded children. I only wish Mr. Limbow had read it. Maybe then he wouldn't have sent himself and his family to hell.
Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them, and will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth.
Jeremiah 33:6

This man obviously had a micro-demon clinging to his prostate gland like a cat to a tree in a hurricane, which explains how his seed became tainted in the first place. Anal demons are among the most difficult to drive out, in my experience. Even attempts at manual extraction (combined with feverish prayer, naturally) usually fail miserably. I suspect that this imp, aside from cursing him with abominable children, was leading the poor fellow into depravity by pounding on his prostate like a prize fighter working the speed bag. Feelings of homerish guilt, and generalized disgust for his family led him to the slaying..which was actually an act of mercy in the case of the "children".
Praise The Lord' Praise God!!!
