It is hard to even know what to say when you realize, fully, that the government of the United States is led by open, unflinching traitors whose entire goal is the destruction of this nation and the impoverishment and enslavement of its people. It is even more astonishing to realize that this has been self-inflicted. That by long-term planning, these evil people have turned the populace into a mass of willing victims, voting for their own destruction. This is why I am often forced to conclude that all of this is to provide a massive lesson to future generations: see what happened to a once great nation when it sold its soul to secularism and greed? Its fall and destruction will stand forever as the example that makes everyone say, "Never again."
At no point were Pilate, Herod, the Pharisees, the priests, or the mob, the decisive cause of Jesus’s death.

Abortion is child sacrifice. It’s murder.
If people today were found sacrificing children, as the Canaanites and others did in the Old Testament, I’m sure the public and its elected officials would be aghast. Such people would be prosecuted for brutality and murder.
It is my contention that in essence abortion is another form of child sacrifice! But because killing children in the womb has been legalized in the US, so many elected officials and many other pro-abortionists condone this brutality and murder! They are condoning child sacrifice.
And sadly, it would seem abortion is the key factor in the USA in regard to who wins elections. And exit polls from elections indicate a significant number of those who call themselves evangelical Christians vote for those in favor of abortion. Seems unbelievable, but that’s the state of the culture.
Many times, in Scripture, God’s people are warned not to be like the pagan peoples of other nations who sacrificed their own children. As we read of this abomination in Scripture, the so-called “civilized West” would claim that such vile behavior as child sacrifice should not be tolerated.
But they do! In numbers that make the child sacrifice of the past pagan cultures pale in significance.
In Psalm 106:35–38, we read the following:
“But they mingled with the Gentiles and learned their works; they served their idols, which became a snare to them. They even sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons, and shed innocent blood, the blood of their sons and daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan; and the land was polluted with blood.”
Such an abomination as child sacrifice does occur in our Western nations, and in fact the whole world. In America alone there is so much child sacrifice that it makes what Hitler did during the Holocaust (as horrific and evil as that was) pale by comparison.
Now abortion is not called child sacrifice. And the victims are not called children. Different terms are used in an attempt to hide the reality of what is actually happening in this modern-day holocaust. Terms like fetal tissue, abortion, pro-choice, women’s rights, women’s health care, reproductive rights and other words are used to hide a reality: the killing of a human being made in the image of God! It’s murder! It’s child sacrifice.
Daily in America, thousands of children are being sacrificed—yes, a sacrifice.
Since the impact of Roe vs Wade in 1973 in the USA, it is estimated that over 60 million children have been sacrificed. This holocaust of abortion has victims who are called mere tissue or fetuses. But these children are made in God’s image, but that is being ignored as children are being killed in a holocaust of unimaginable proportion. And to help normalize this horrific procedure, terms like “reproductive health” are used to hide what it really is—child sacrifice, the murder of children.
Daily in America, thousands of children are being sacrificed—yes, a sacrificed. We all think that the Canaanites and other pagan cultures were barbaric because of their ritual child sacrifice. But the brutality and bloodshed happening in the Western nations today makes the Canaanites look mild by comparison.
Now, to whom are these children today being sacrificed? To the god of self! Abortion is child sacrifice to the god of self.
We live in a country where most of the political leaders applaud the work of probably the world’s largest child-sacrificing machine, Planned Parenthood. In 2013, President Obama thanked Planned Parenthood, stating (and when he says “health care” and “woman’s right” in this context, he means abortion—the murdering of children),
“As long as we’ve got to fight to make sure women have access to quality, affordable health care, and as long as we’ve got to fight to protect a woman’s right to make her own choices about her own health, I want you to know that you’ve also got a president who’s going to be right there with you, fighting every step of the way,” said Obama. “Thank you, Planned Parenthood. God bless you.”
As he says “God bless you,” he cannot be talking about the God of the Bible. No, the only god he can be referring to is the god of self and the god of this world, the devil! Is he not in reality saying, “may the god of self bless you for sacrificing so many children”? He was exalting the work of Satan.
Remember too that President Obama was a supporter of partial-birth abortion (really, it’s partial-birth murder). Again, it’s child sacrifice.
Romans chapter 1 makes it clear that God will pour out His wrath in judgment upon a culture that rebels against Him. And one sign that God is judging a society and withdrawing His restraining influence of the Holy Spirit is the acceptance of increasing homosexual behavior, as Romans 1 teaches. LGBTQ issues are prominent in the culture today and have greatly contributed to an increasingly secularized worldview among the population and increasing anti-biblical, anti-Christian, so anti-God emphasis. And even though many people might not want to consider it, I suggest that perhaps God is now judging the nations that have shed the blood of millions of children sacrificed to the god of self.
“These . . . things the Lord hates . . . hands that shed innocent blood.” (Proverbs 6:16–17)
We are observing the dismantling of the Christian influence in this nation (and the whole Western world) that had led to its greatness in the world.
In the USA in 1962, school prayer was ruled unconstitutional. In 1963, Bible reading in public schools was deemed unconstitutional. In 1973, abortion was legalized (Roe v. Wade). In 1985, nativity scenes on public land were ruled to violate the supposed separation of church and state. In 2015, gay “marriage” was legalized. Next, euthanasia is coming, and yes pedophilia too (now called minor attracted persons to attempt to hide the truth). We read about this regularly in the news.
This nation needs to repent of the wickedness of worshipping the god of self!
“Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord.” (Psalm 33:12 KJV)
The way to be delivered from our “self” is to start focusing on Jesus. It is not what you have done, but it is what Christ has done that is the most important!
“Jesus said, ‘I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.’” John 8:12
Without Jesus the glitziest spectacle is darkness.
Such darkness is death.
His hand is stretched out. His face is bright with welcome.
Your heavenly Father wants you to involve Him even in the smallest, most mundane matters of your life, and see His unmerited favor surround you, protect you, and lead you to good success.
“They were seeking to arrest Jesus, but no one laid a hand on him, because his hour had not yet come.” John 7:30
You know this is true of you too.
“If the Lord wills, we will live.” James 4:15
You are immortal till God’s work for you is done.
