“There are six things which the Lord hates: Yes, seven which are an abomination to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, A heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that run rapidly to evil, A false witness who utters lies and one who spreads strife among brothers.” Proverbs 6:16-19
Hate. It’s a pretty strong word isn’t it? Especially when you consider that the very nature of God is one of love. Yet, this is what the Bible says. These are the things God hates. How then must he feel when the blood of the most innocent and helpless of all his creation cry out to him day after day? When children in the wombs created to cushion and protect instead become horrific and tortuous chambers of death.
On September 28, the fourth and final blood moon of the 2014/2015 tetrad will appear over Jerusalem. It will also be a Supermoon. An unmistakable warning for those with blood on their hands and those too apathetic to care. And while a blood moon derives its name from the reddish/orange hew of a lunar eclipse, I assure you, there is another reason it’s called a blood moon and it has nothing to do with astronomy.
Yesterday in a town of 45,000 people (much more when you count the surrounding communities and outlying areas) we had 60 adults and a handful of kids and babies turn out to protest the most horrific practices one can imagine by the butchery of PP. Yet, thousands, yes, thousands turned out the same weekend to hear a rock musician hosted by a local church who had recently given his life to Christ – and while I am not knocking that per se …. you have to admit there is a huge disconnect somewhere and by and large – we just don’t get it.
Well, we may not but, God does and the days of easy believism my friends are all but over.
For next month’s blood moon is a game changer. I guarantee you ….. And, then – maybe then – we will.
“Pray for the peace of Jerusalem they shall prosper who love thee” Psalm 122:6
Watching and waiting with YOU for the soon return of Jesus! Cindy
I had commented before that there was not a protest in my area however, I heard on the radio that there actually was….why didn’t I hear about it until after it was over.? Thank you once again for your thoughtful and thought provoking words. Repentance is needed if it isn’t too late.

Thanks Karen for writing, I do appreciate it. I think that there were probably a lot of folks who did not hear about the protest in time to attend if they had perhaps those numbers would have been different – only God knows. But, I will say this – it’s not as if missing the protest on Saturday was our last opportunity to do something. There is always something we can do. Starting of course repenting for our apathy can repent of our apathy it may be too late for our nation but, as individuals (and for the lives of those babies not yet born) its imperative. Blessings my friend and thank you again for writing!

It causes me great grief to think of the ways that I have inadvertently supported this thing called abortion. For every dollar that has been sent to the us g0vernm-nt a portion has gone to this. Every time I have solicited those who are openly practicing witchcraft in the medical industry I have indirectly supported this. Lord have mercy and forgive me.
Those who have faith to read and understand should be seeking forgiveness.
