Standing among the castrated
Through out history eunuchs have played a role in governments, wars, religions and cultures (had their own class in society). Some of the greatest men of all time were eunuchs.
One of them being Zheng He (1371-1433), the greatest Chinese explorer ever. Not only was he an explorer but a diplomat, a mariner and a fleet admiral. On seven different occasions Zheng He lead large expeditions of Chinese junks as far as Africa. His accomplishments are extraordinary!
Today, there is a different kind of "Castrated Class". Men who you share a cubicle with, play on a softball team with, sit next to in the pew. Men who are married with kids, successful jobs and are all smiles when you meet for coffee. They are everywhere, they go about their lives like nothing is wrong and fail daily to achieve the greatest tasks put before them.
They are not physically castrated, but they are indeed castrated. Castrated by the porn they are enslaved to. Castrated in a way that they can no longer lead their sons into manhood, their daughters into womanhood and love their wives as Christ loves the church.
Titus 2:11-12 tells us that b/c of God's grace salvation has come, it has appeared to all men and it teaches us to say "NO" to things that are ungodly, passions that are worldly, it also gives us the ability to live a life that is upright, holy and self-controlled.
Stop being daily castrated, stand tall like a Cedar of Lebanon (92:12) and flourish like the righteous
