Hello Dear Friends:
Ha! I will bet that many of my readers wonder why I pick some of the most controversial subjects to post. Do I want to make enemies or 'blow people off ?' The answer is, "NO !" But the Truth is the Truth, and most older folks still remember when we had more morals, peace, security and dignity as a human race. Guess what ? God is Pro-Life. Period. About 12 years ago my dear wife, Sharon and I used to picket and carry anti-abortion signs in front of an Abortion clinic in Kenosha, Wisconsin, [ Satan inspired, Planned Parenthood Abortion Clinic] with a friend or two. I may still have a few pictures of that activilty.
I am proud of most of my Military and Civilian achievements and hard work habits. Also happy to retire at age 54 with full benefits, services and income from Chrysler Corp. after 30.5 years. I was raised on a farm in my teens, and my parents taught me the meaning of the term, "Hard, Honest, Work." I just wish I didn't have so many aches and pains, now. Don't forget that the USA -- VA system is using a 'wide brush' stroke by taking away most pain meds., from our Veterans ! "Nothing is impossible for the man or woman who doesn't have to do it !" ---- Ha! Just wait until some of those sanctimonious, hypocrites, have a bad accident or sickness. But I feel that Father God will deal with those hard hearted punks sooner --- than later.
Again, one of the reasons that I love the KJV Bible so much is because it is PURE History, and we can also check our modern day actions and mind set and compare it to ancient times --- and what happened to innocent children thousands of years. And one thing for sure..... Satan is still the 'god of this system of things.' However, STD [Satan the devil] also knows that his time is short, and soon he will be locked in a deep cavern/ abyss, along with his demons, for 1000 years. Just check out Revelation.
Today, my wife, Lori, asked to study with me in the last book of the Bible --- Revelation. That is a good, healthy SIGN ! PTL --- Praise the Lord.
I recently hear a song that I liked, by Johnny Cash, called: "The Man comes around." Please check it out in your spare time, and then tell me what you think.
Warm Regards,

Is Abortion actually just Modern Child Sacrifice?
Recently a crisis pregnancy center was visited by a church-going girl who was disappointed to find out she was pregnant. The center tried to help the girl, who was set to have twins—offering free medical care and services for her and her babies’ needs—so that she would choose life for her babies. But the problem was her due date. Rather than miss a cruise for which she had booked tickets, she chose to abort.
Not only are church-going women aborting their babies, there are abortionists today who call themselves “Christians.” How can that be? Eric Scheidler of the Pro-Life Action League is mobilizing prayer warriors to pray for three abortionists who claim to be Christians. One of those just spoke at Mississippi State University on March 1 in a speech called, “Abortion and the Christian Case for Choice.” (afanews.com, 3/2/18).

Anyone can claim to be a Christian, but that doesn’t make them so.
The thing about abortion is this: the ancient practice of child sacrifice has resumed in earnest with abortion on demand—only now it’s all hidden from our eyes. The babies are no longer sacrificed on the altars of the ancient gods Moloch and Baal. Instead, they are sacrificed on the altars of convenience or material benefits.
God said through Moses, “Now choose life, so that you and your children may live.”
In the ancient world, child sacrifice was common. For example, in what used to be Carthage (today’s Tunisia), in ancient cemeteries near pagan temples, archaeologists have unearthed bones of babies that were sacrificed. Before the Jewish conquest of the Promised Land, child sacrifice among the Canaanites was commonplace. The Halley Bible Handbook notes “Prophets of Baal and Ashtoreth were official murderers of little children.”
Perhaps the most notorious ancient god of the Ammonites was Moloch. The Zondervan Pictorial Bible Dictionary says of Moloch that he was worshiped by means of child sacrifice in “gruesome orgies”: “At least in some places an image of the god was heated, and the bodies of the slain were placed in its arms.”
Moses specifically warned the Israelites against worshiping this demon: “Do not give any of your children to be sacrificed to Moloch, for you must not profane the name of your God. I am the Lord.”
But as the Old Testament records, the ancient Hebrews were often rebellious against God and His commands. We read in Psalm 106: “They worshiped their idols, which became a snare to them. They sacrificed their sons and their daughters to false gods. They shed innocent blood, the blood of their sons and daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan, and the land was desecrated by their blood. They defiled themselves by what they did.”
One of the worst kings of Judah was Manasseh. In 2 Chronicles 6 we read, “He sacrificed his children in the fire in the Valley of Ben Hinnom, practiced divination and witchcraft, sought omens, and consulted mediums and spiritists. He did much evil in the eyes of the Lord, arousing his anger.”
There’s a link to these child sacrifices and hell. How so? Quoting again from The Zondervan Pictorial Bible Dictionary says of the worship of Moloch: “its principle place of worship in and after Manasseh’s time was the valley of the son of Hinnom . . . a place of such ill repute that ‘Gehenna,’ i.e., ‘the valley of Hinnom’ became a type of hell.” When Jesus spoke of hell, the Greek word is Gehenna—as in the valley of Hinnom—the place of child sacrifice.
Children are a gift from the Lord. But some people would sacrifice their own children for their personal gods.
When I asked Eric Scheidler on my radio show about the parallel between ancient child sacrifice and modern abortion, he answered: “I think it’s extremely pleasing to the devil when an abortion takes place . . . This wickedness happens in the dark. The womb is an invisible place. We don’t see the abortion happening. Even those photographs we have [of aborted babies] are very rare. They are hard to come by. This is a hidden evil. It’s one that digs its roots so deeply in our society because it happens in secret, and so many people are complicit in it, and it gradually wears away people’s sensitivity.”
Thankfully, Christ offers His forgiveness—even for abortion. Many women who have aborted, many men who have forced their wives or daughters to abort, and many abortionists have repented and come to the Lord and have found forgiveness.
Meanwhile, let’s not kid ourselves that one can participate in performing abortions and at the same time walk in good faith with Jesus Christ, the Lord of life. Abortion is the American version of the ancient practice of child sacrifice. Moloch would be pleased.
