Hey John Piper, If adoption is bigger than the universe is it also bigger than God? I don't know you but I pray that you are not a preacher and that you don't twist Gods word every Sunday if you are.

It does say in James that we should care for orphans and widows so I'm not against adoption but I agree with you 100% on twisting Gods word! This man is being a false teacher by saying these things. There are so many gullible people out there that just believe everything they hear and never bother to pick up the bible and find out for themselves. I feel sorry for this man. God is the one person that you do not want to make mad.

If you study Ephesians then you'll know that it was written by Paul to the gentiles.When he talks about adoption in this book he is talking about how God has adopted us as gentiles into his family through the crucifixion of Christ."God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to Himself through Jesus Christ."Ephesians1:5 Adoption is an awesome thing if you are called by God to do so but NO ONE should ever try to rewrite the bible to get people to adopt. SHAME ON YOU SIR!

Adoption is a great thing it gives a person a second chance. I was adopted from Russia when I was baby and I'm happy I was.
I was adopted too and I am also a Christian. I think that the Evangelical Adoption Movement is often misguided and vital and unethical aspects of adoption are often unseen, hidden or ignored. Sorry, you won't find me singing adoption's praises. And before anyone says it, no, I did not have a horrible childhood. My childhood is completely irrelevant to immorality in adoption practice.

Speaking as an adopted person. I spent the first 10 years of my life mourning the loss of my natural mother. I spent the next 10 years utterly confused with regards to my own identity. The next 10 numbing my senses. And the last 10 years gradually getting my life back together again. Believe me it may be great for the adopted parents, it might even be ok for the natural mother. But it can be a hell for the adopted child.
