America in the Judgment

Scripture warns that individually and collectively we shall stand before God's just judgment. All we've done and failed to do will be revealed as our words and deeds and even our thoughts and desires are exposed. Sadly, in a world having aborted over a billion babies, we are "storing up wrath against the day of wrath." With 50 million clinically aborted in America alone, every star on the flag now represents a million murdered children.

When Freedom Runs Red


Omnity provides the Creator perfect vision and insight into the affairs of creation. The Psalmist David declares, "You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed."

Unlike human justice, God's judgments are far from blind. Nor should they catch our generation by surprise. With over six billion Bibles printed, God's Word is the all time best seller. Furthermore, scripture's directives and warnings are clear and so often emphasized there's no excuse for disobedience:
  • "For the word of God is alive and powerful. It is sharper than the sharpest two-edged sword, cutting between soul and spirit, between joint and marrow. It exposes our innermost thoughts and desires. Nothing in all creation is hidden from God. Everything is naked and exposed before his eyes, and he is the one to whom we are accountable." Hebrews 4:12-13

Particularly relevant to the modern world are God's many warnings against misusing our freedom as an occasion for evil:
  • "It is God’s will that your honorable lives should silence those ignorant people who make foolish accusations against you. For you are free, yet you are God’s slaves, so don’t use your freedom as an excuse to do evil. Respect everyone, and love your Christian brothers and sisters. Fear God, and respect the king." 1 Peter 2:15-17
  • "It is absolutely clear that God has called you to a free life. Just make sure that you don't use this freedom as an excuse to do whatever you want to do and destroy your freedom. Rather, use your freedom to serve one another in love; that's how freedom grows. For everything we know about God's Word is summed up in a single sentence: Love others as you love yourself. That's an act of true freedom." Galatians 5:13-14 The Message


O Say Can You See?

One need look no further than abortion to see how Christian nations world wide have fallen from grace. Given undreamed of and unprecedented blessings, our generation has responded by taking them and God for granted. Worse, by covering the Earth in crimson, we're not only aborting our posterity but our privileged standing with God.

With at least 50 million clinical abortions legally performed in the United States, there's little room to wonder how America will fare in the judgement. Further, one cringes at the irony of our national anthem, "The Star Spangled Banner." In light of Abortion's unsung holocaust I borrowed its melody to ask the question most critical question of our time. I offer it humbly, hoping we might learn to again love all American's, from embryos to the elderly... 

Oh Say Can You See, What's become of our Light?
While proudly we Hail America's last Gleaming.

Blood red Stripes, Fifty Stars, Each a million Dead Just so Far.

While we pledge and we Sing Our Children's Blood
goes on Streaming.

See Abortion's red Glare Hear lies filling the Air?

"Choice, it's our Right" to murder Children we Dare.

How long can our Star Spangled Banner
yet Wave? Or' a land become a Sea,
Of the Blood, Of our Babes...
 
 

Joseph Forman, the co-founder of Operation Rescue wrote the extremely kind yet persuasive book "Shattering The Darkness" from jail. The following, an excerpt from Chapter 1:

In 1960, there was a day when the Sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan also came among them. And the Lord said to Him, "From where do you come?"
So Satan answered Him, "From going to and fro on the earth and from walking back-and-forth on it."
Then the Lord said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant the American church, how there is none like them in all the earth for seminaries, missionaries, budgets, buildings and programs to advance my kingdom, how they fear God and shun evil?"

 So Satan said, "Do they fear God for nothing? Look at them. You have given them everything they could possibly want, You have hedged them about. They do not love you, they love the things you have given them. They worship your blessings."

 "Yes?"

 "I will not say that I can get them to curse you to your face – I failed with Job. But, I will say this: your people are incapable of even the most basic acts of Christian faith and charity – acts by which you yourself said that others could determine the difference between your children and My children, your sheep and My goats."

 "Yes?"

 "Yes," said Satan."You say your people follow you like sheep? Within 30 years, you will not be able to get so much as one Christian to follow you across the street to save a babies life. Then you will have to turn, remove their lampstand, and visit their land a curse."

 In 1973, Row vs. Wade struck down all antiabortion laws in America, creating the "right" of all women to hire a doctor to kill their children at any time during the full nine months before birth. It's companion decision, Dow vs. Bolton, on the same day decreed that a woman could do so for any reason.

 And no Christian could be found to so much as cross the street to physically intervene for these children. And the slaughter quickly grew to 4500 today. It became a slaughter carried out in most hospitals and in publicly advertised clinics, established to make the killing quick and easy for everyone. So acceptable did it become, that Christians would go to child murdering hospitals, or by every day necessities – from phone calls and Cheerios to toilet paper – from companies who helped promote child killing organizations. Most Christian women thought nothing of having the children delivered by the same doctor who would be just as willing to kill their children. Pastors fear of rebuke from their congregations if they mentioned the "A" word too often – or at all.

 Again, in 1989, there was a day when the Sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan also came among them. And the Lord said to him, "From where do you come?"

 So Satan answered Him, "From going to and fro on the earth and from walking back-and-forth on it.?

 Then the Lord said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant the American church? 50,000 crossed the street and physically protected a generation yet unborn, though you incite Me against them to destroyed them without cause."

 "Skin for skin!" answered Satan. "Touch their houses, their church buildings, their families, their careers, their savings. Threaten them physically with beatings by police, long jail sentences, beatings and aids infested and urine from pro-abortion demonstrators. Then you will see them abandon your command to love and serve you only, as they scramble to abandon their neighbor to save themselves. They are My children, not yours. You will see the very Christian who spoke the loudest in defense of rescuing the babies become the leaders in justifying, in your own name, why they should no longer physically protect them, but seek some other way to 'rescue' them. You will see them worship the same God's the feminists, the mothers seeking abortion, and the doctors worship – the gods of Respectability, Autonomy, Career, Self-preservation. They will cry out to these new gods to preserve their organizations, reputations, and bank accounts – even those of the rescue organizations themselves. In that day your people will knowingly allow My doctors to offer Me sacrifices of the fruit of the womb. Your people will allow these sacrifices to buy the peace, prosperity and blessings they crave – blessings they will never trust you to bestow. To preserve their way of life at all cost, they will make peace with Me."


Reaping the Whirlwind

Inconceivably, the very Christian Nations that once exported God's gospel of peace and thereby ended human sacrifice, have reversed course. So much so that with America’s global financial and moral support, today the most dangerous place to be in the world is in your mother's womb!

Kept legal and out of sight, the Choice to abort is made to appear rational and sterile. Reducing the rights of babies in the womb to those of tumors and inviable tissue masses removes morality from the equation and portrays pro-life activists as insensitive and hostile. Such Devilish cunning represents the greatest inversion of right and wrong in human history. Yet God is not long mocked:

  • "Don’t be misled—you cannot mock the justice of God. You will always harvest what you plant. Those who live only to satisfy their own sinful nature will harvest decay and death from that sinful nature. But those who live to please the Spirit will harvest everlasting life from the Spirit. So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up. Therefore, whenever we have the opportunity, we should do good to everyone—especially to those in the family of faith." Galatians 6:7-10
  • "Blow the trumpet! Sound the alarm! Vultures are circling over God's people who have broken my covenant and defied my revelation. Predictably, Israel cries out, 'My God! We know you!' But they don't act like it. Israel will have nothing to do with what's good, and now the enemy is after them. "They crown kings, but without asking me. They set up princes but don't let me in on it. Instead, they make idols, using silver and gold, idols that will be their ruin... I'm seething with anger against that rubbish! How long before they shape up?
    Look at them! Planting wind-seeds, they'll harvest tornadoes.
    Wheat with no head produces no flour. And even if it did, strangers would gulp it down.     Israel is swallowed up and spit out." Hosea 8:1-8 MSG
  • "Write to Laodicea, to the Angel of the church. God's Yes, the Faithful and Accurate Witness, the First of God's creation, says: "I know you inside and out, and find little to my liking. You're not cold, you're not hot—far better to be either cold or hot! You're stale. You're stagnant. You make me want to vomit. You brag, 'I'm rich, I've got it made, I need nothing from anyone,' oblivious that in fact you're a pitiful, blind beggar, threadbare and homeless. "Here's what I want you to do: Buy your gold from me, gold that's been through the refiner's fire. Then you'll be rich. Buy your clothes from me, clothes designed in Heaven. You've gone around half-naked long enough. And buy medicine for your eyes from me so you can see, really see. "The people I love, I call to account—prod and correct and guide so that they'll live at their best. Up on your feet, then! About face! Run after God! "Look at me. I stand at the door. I knock. If you hear me call and open the door, I'll come right in and sit down to supper with you. Conquerors will sit alongside me at the head table, just as I, having conquered, took the place of honor at the side of my Father. That's my gift to the conquerors! "Are your ears awake? Listen. Listen to the Wind Words, the Spirit blowing through the churches." Revelation 3:14-22 MSG

Seeing "God is not mocked" and that those who "sow the wind will reap the whirlwind" a terrible question arises. What would the reaping the aborting of over a billion of mankind's most innocent look like? Might the whirlwind abortion is creating be the Great Tribulation that seems to be at our door? What possible excuse can Christ, our Advocate, make to the Devil's charge against humanity, and the church, to justify such evil before the Eternity's Supreme Court? As war breaks out in Heaven, will billions of Christians covered in innocent blood and guilty of apathy or worse be secretly raptured away before the hurricane of justice strikes?

Might tempests of lessor judgments already be loosed against formally Christian Nations? From devastated homes and families to homosexuality and euthanasia, is the scourge of God being prepared as in Habukkuk's day? How long will we remain clueless, refusing to pray, repent and engage our culture of death?


Consider Haiti

Once in the gospels Jesus turned commentator on recent events. While He might have said any number of things, what He did say should greatly concern our present evil and entitled generation:
  • "About that time some people came up and told him about the Galileans Pilate had killed while they were at worship, mixing their blood with the blood of the sacrifices on the altar. Jesus responded, "Do you think those murdered Galileans were worse sinners than all other Galileans? Not at all. Unless you turn to God, you, too, will die. And those eighteen in Jerusalem the other day, the ones crushed and killed when the Tower of Siloam collapsed and fell on them, do you think they were worse citizens than all other Jerusalemites? Not at all. Unless you turn to God, you, too, will die." Luke 13:1-5 The Message

A few weeks ago Haiti, the poorest most powerless nation in the western hemisphere, was all but destroyed by a 7.0 earthquake. This "act of God" killed over 250,000 and left another 1,500,000 homeless, facing starvation and disease. On the heals of this tragedy Pat Robinson of the 700 Club, one of America's most famous tele-evangelists, made global news when raising a possible link between the country's current crises and the Haitian slave revolt of 1804. He noted that leaders had made a pact with the Devil to gain freedom from centuries of crushing enslavement at the hands of the then rich and powerful Christian nation France. Robertson also wisely noted that within a few days the United State's would mark the 37th anniversary of Roe vs. Wade, the U.S. Supreme Court decision that opened the floodgates for legalized abortion on demand for any reason at any age of development prior to birth. His insightful comments stopped shy of making an important comparison. Namely, that unlike destitute Haiti, America is the richest most powerful nation in the western hemisphere. That unlike Haiti, America's been blessed with unprecedented freedoms. Yet even so, America had more certainly sold it's soul to Satan, clearly evidenced by the complicity of our government and politics, medicine and the media in encouraging millions to go on sealing the deal day after day, year after year, decade after decade written in the innocent blood of 50,000,000 aborted babies.

Jesus' waring rings down through the millennia. Whatsoever we do to, or fail to do for, the least of My brothers we've done unto Him. Thankfully scripture also assures, "God has no pleasure in the death of the wicked" and "is not willing that any should perish." Loving, merciful and faithful, He desires that all should come to the knowledge of repentance, truth and salvation. Let's pray that we're wise enough to reconsider and heed Christ's warning: "From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked!"
