IT'S ALWAYS BEEN: THE REBELLIOUS KILL THE INNOCENT ... REPOSTED FROM 2/25/2019

 You can be sure that the cruelty done to the innocent children aborted in the womb and justified as "women's health" will take us down a very dark path to a cruel future.

When God creates a child, he places them in a hidden place:  in the mother's womb.  When the woman destroys his creation, God does not look the other way.  King Manasseh went too far until it was too late:  "for the innocent blood that he shed:  for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood; which the LORD would not pardon."  (2 Kings 24:4)

When we allow the murder of children at the ninth month of gestation, will we soon allow the murder of a child at one minute?  At one week?  At one year?

Jesus said, "Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven".  (Matthew 19:14)  We see Jesus treated children with respect, defending them in their powerlessness.  He picked them up in His arms and blessed them.  Matthew, Mark and Luke describe the focus Jesus had, and still has on children.  He rebuked the disciples for forbidding the children to come to him:  his priceless creations, vulnerable, powerless, in need of love, care, teaching, guiding, respect.  They are beautiful little people created in the image of God.

How stunningly different from the attitude of the Creator of these little ones is the evil force that is bent on killing them today.

How can this be!  Killing the fruit of the womb.  Only God creates life.  God said to Cain, "Where is Abel, your brother?" Cain's response was, more or less, "How should I know! Am I my brother's keeper?"  Then God said, "The voice of your brother's blood cries to me from the ground."  If a mother and (hopefully) father are not the child's keepers who are?  Certainly the government is not if it permits such murder.

MURDER OF THE INNOCENTS ... REPOSTED FROM 2019-01-31

 There is a violence continuing in our Country, this evil is not new. Murdering the defenseless has been a tactic of evil power through history.

No one knows how many male children were murdered by Pharaoh, the Egyptian King. The reason? He said to his people, "Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we . . . " and so every newborn male was thrown into the river . . . until God stepped in by two midwives, Shiphrah, and Puah, who would not cower or cave!  They came up with a plan:  they defied the King.  Moses and many more were saved alive from the evil agenda of the most powerful man in Egypt.  This determination to violently control a nation is described in Exodus 1.

Interestingly, just this morning my husband, Eric, and I read the eighty verses in Luke One.  God worked again through two women, Mary and Elisabeth who were cousins.  Elisabeth was an old woman.  She bore the baby, John the Baptist, who would announce the arrival of Jesus, Savior of the world.  And Mary, a virgin, of course, bore Jesus, the Son of God.

Later, another evil King would mass-murder the innocent . . .  "Then Herod . . . sent forth, and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently enquired of the wise men." (Matthew 2:16).  Notice how this resembles the Pharaoh.  The greatest Power, Creator Of The Heavens And Earth overruled and protected His Son, Jesus.  Joseph and Mary escaped into Egypt and for a few years lived there until Herod was dead.

What is happening when evil seems rampant? What is God doing today, with the rush of evil:  the abortion of the innocents in the United States?  I know what we should do.  Stand up and speak up and pray and ask God for mercy.  We are alive and powerful as Christians.  We have the Holy Spirit to give us courage and power.

Back in history, when another wicked King, Manasseh, killed innocents, there came a time when the Lord would pardon it no more. "Surely at the commandment of the LORD came this upon Judah, to remove them out of his sight, for the sins of Manasseh according to all that he did . . . for the innocent blood that he shed: for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood; which the LORD would not pardon," (2 Kings 24:4)

The whole Country was held accountable . . . if we do not turn around, will we be destroyed?
