Ezekial and Abortion!

I bought a bible from the discount bible outlet about 5 years ago. One day (about 5 months after I had been writing in it and reading it) I noticed that the first 19 books of Ezekial were missing. Yesterday at our Tender Mercies bible study we were each given a passage to read. I had the discount bible with me and was given Ezekial 13: 9-16. I had to borrow a bible to read it. Well all I can say is WOW.....I kept reading and reading...because it spoke volumes to me. Now I wonder what all of the rest of Ezekial is telling us and am picking up the other bibles in my house to read.

Here are just some snippets from Ezekial 13: I feel they are so applicable to the abortion issue (especially the politics).

Ezekial 13: 9-12 My hand will be against the prophets who see false visions and utter lying divinations. They will not belong to the council of my people or be listed in the records of the house of Israel, nor will they enter the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the Sovereign LORD.

10 " 'Because they lead my people astray, saying, "Peace," when there is no peace, and because, when a flimsy wall is built, they cover it with whitewash, 11 therefore tell those who cover it with whitewash that it is going to fall. Rain will come in torrents, and I will send hailstones hurtling down, and violent winds will burst forth. 12 When the wall collapses, will people not ask you, "Where is the whitewash you covered it with?"

The video I posted with Bernard Nathanson supports the fact that the entire pro choice movement was designed to promote the lie of abortion and create an acceptance for abortion/legalization. And here we are 35 years post roe v wade and about 40 years after the conception of NARAL and this 'false vision and divination" is still a very destructive force. However, there is hope...God says he will collapse the walls.

Ezekial 13: 17-19
17 "Now, son of man, set your face against the daughters of your people who prophesy out of their own imagination. Prophesy against them 18 and say, 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Woe to the women who sew magic charms on all their wrists and make veils of various lengths for their heads in order to ensnare people. Will you ensnare the lives of my people but preserve your own? 19 You have profaned me among my people for a few handfuls of barley and scraps of bread. By lying to my people, who listen to lies, you have killed those who should not have died and have spared those who should not live.

verse 19 gives me chills....YOU HAVE KILLED THOSE WHO SHOULD NOT HAVE DIED AND SPARED THOSE WHO SHOULD NOt LIVE....so true. And there is something sinister and witchcraft like about stripping a baby from a womb. It wreaks of witchcraft and the devil. Also, he says "WILL YOU ENSNARE THE LIVES OF MY PEOPLE BUT PRESERVE YOUR OWN?" God's people are being lied to and become ensnared. Those women who choose to be preserved promote abortion to innocent people to continue to create a pretense of massive acceptance when the truth is that good people are being caught in this trap of lies and lured away from God's truth...

Ezekial 13:
20 " 'Therefore this is what the Sovereign LORD says: I am against your magic charms with which you ensnare people like birds and I will tear them from your arms; I will set free the people that you ensnare like birds.

GOD goes all out to save us even when ensnared and even when we have gone through with the abortion. He longed to bring us back wounded and all into HIS arms. He will give us wings again.

EZ 13:21 I will tear off your veils and save my people from your hands, and they will no longer fall prey to your power. Then you will know that I am the LORD. 22 Because you disheartened the righteous with your lies, when I had brought them no grief, and because you encouraged the wicked not to turn from their evil ways and so save their lives, 23 therefore you will no longer see false visions or practice divination. I will save my people from your hands. And then you will know that I am the LORD.' "

Jesus will save us and yet He even shows some mercy allowing those who do harm to witness the truth of the Lord....they too will know that He is Lord. The TRUTH (HIS TRUTH) will set us all free...

Tender Mercies! And Compassion!

Tomorrow I start the Tender Mercies bible study. I am very excited about it. I love the title of the study. I don't know much about it with the exception that there are only 3 of us in the class and we will be at a church in Chapel Hill which is a drive.

I must admit that for awhile (in July and August) I was wondering why the TV and Radio channels weren't discussing Barack Obama's "BORN ALIVE " stance and His strong position on supporting Planned Parenthood and a woman's right to abort. Originally I was really really really happy to start hearing dialogue with the campaign regarding abortion. And i still am so happy about Sarah Palin's infusing the awareness regarding LIFE both via her down syndrome baby and her daughter's pregnancy. But i also find moments of sadness when the reality of the abortion issue is so in our faces. It is so sad to see people denying life and arguing against life but heavily for women's rights to choose. It was a long journey for me but it is clear that being pro woman shouldn't be synonomous with advocating abortion. Many women like myself fall into a devastating depression following abortion. Some committ suicide..others live with an emptiness forever. It is sad to see other women advocating for something that can wreak such torment in a woman. AND it is also disappointing to have the conversations steer away from the LIFE issue. What about the baby? The pro choice groups don't ever want to discuss LIFE. If you bring it up you must be anti woman. Advocating for children is very PRO WOMAN . Advocating to find ways to allow women to keep their children is pro woman. Being angry with people who support killing babies is PRO WOMAN. When I say the subject of abortion being in the media is depressing to me, it is because there is so much at stake. Those of us who call ourselves PRO LIFE can see hope in a party that strongly advocates for life...but we can also see the potential for more lives to be lost if a prochoice candidate is allowed to be our President. Barack Obama is determined to bring evangelical christians to the voting booths to vote for him. He is even bringing a FAITH rally here to NC using such emergent church leaders as Donald Miller to speak out for Obama as being CHRISTIAN. It is not Christian to kill innocent babies. Jesus implored us to take care of orphans and widows. The abandoned unborn children are orphans as well. If we want to continue with God's work we will be Purely Religious and act to save the children. Standing for a party that allows and accepts CHOICE to kill is not in line with Christs teachings....Jesus is merciful and wants them to live...and He wants to ask us to help the women too by not allowing them to walk into a pit that they may never get out of...Please pray for our country and for the destructive legacy left behind by 35 years of ROE V WADE...

Who's Talking!

So statistics show that 78% of women who abort claim to be from a religion. By the time we reach 40 they say 1 in 3 women have aborted. Since 1973 there have been 50 million abortions. Let's say that 1/3 of them have aborted twice ( I don't have the actual statistics)...well then there would still be 15-20 million women out there who have aborted. Having come out of the closet through intense prayer recently, I am seriously aware that women do not talk about their abortions. And the women in churches would have you believe that you are the only one. I am in a church with 2000 people. So far I am the only person who has come out of the closet to talk about it. I will tell you that the abortion i had was 27 years ago. I swore i would never talk about it with anyone but my husband (who was not the father....it happened 6 years before we were married). I also really know that I am healed through Jesus. So, when I decided to 'come out' i didn't really expect to still have intense feelings on the subject. But I will say that it is cathartic to talk about it. I have found further healing ...And next week I start a bible study called 'Tender Mercies'. I will say though that along with further healing I am also experiencing further disappointment. It is very lonely out here being one of the few of the 15-20 million women to actually be talking about their experience. It is also disappointing to find out that so many women are so locked into the lies of the abortion movement. I have learned being pro life and speaking out about your bad abortion experience is the equivalent of being a whistle blower in a very corrupt company with a favorable reputation. I cannot help but tell the truth but also have to understand the power of the 35 years of lies regarding abortion. I believe if more of us would talk about our disappointment, regret, depression, guilt, anger....we would have the potential to drown out the voices of the prochoice movement arguing ...you have the right to choose to kill. No one should have the right to rip a baby out of their womb. Not many people are talking and we should be hearing the shouts of the women who have now seen the light after being hurt by abortion....not many are talking and some will never talk...some may never be healed because they can't even cry out to anyone....we have to fess up to our sin and move on to reveal the truth. The truth will set you free and the lies will continue to kill. We have to scream out when we hear women like Michelle Obama say 'women want abortions." MOST WOMEN DO NOT WANT ABORTIONS... they want their babies but make bad choices based on lies...in speaking out, in talking we can help to erase the lies and begin to shed light on the truth...let's talk....scream, shout out...THIS IS WRONG ....HELP US TO GIVE OUR BABIES LIFE...

More on Pregnancy Centers!

So my friend works for a pregnancy center here. Her job is to raise awareness at the universities. This is really intense because I live in a heavy university town (UNC, NCSU, DUKE, MEREDITH, Wake Tech, Wake Forest). But what is so disturbing is that the UNC OB nurse is from Planned Parenthood and the Health Center at the university is advised to refer pregnant clients to Planned Parenthood. There is also a woman on the campus who is radically angry toward Pregnancy support and doesn't want their presence visible on the campus. So people who want to make the women aware of where it go for support during pregnancy really have their work cut out for them. They are usually told that they will get no support from the university and have to work directly with the student groups or students for advocacy......this is so humbling....If the women don't know where to go it is like a scared mouse stuck at the end of a confusing maze with only one exit available...out of desperation they walk through the one open door sure to kill their baby.....This election is so important in November..there is so much hope but also the potential for a political climate that allows further acceptance of abortion clinics showing up in malls where girls that usually have to get permission slips to go on a field trip will not need one to walk in for an abortion or to to bring home the abortion pill to administer on their own in their bedrooms.....with their parents not knowing that their child may be witnessing fetal tissue in the toilet.....and immense bleeding....it is so scary...

Please pray......
