Roe vs. Wade: Abortion and Molech

Roe v. Wade Supreme Court Leak

• Molech is the act of sacrificing babies

• or the god himself History is filled with barbaric cultures - ancient Canaanites The Bible mentions Molech about ten times. Here are a couple of them. — Leviticus 20:2 Jeremiah 32:35

THE PROBLEM OF EVIL:

“why does God allow all this evil to happen in the world?” and “Why does he not put a stop to it?” Canaanites: God was patient for 400 years and then decides it’s judgment day. It is one of the times in history that God actually does choose to NOT allow the evil that pervades in the world and utterly decimate it. ARCHETYPE OF EVIL The Canaanites were particularly Evil. Genesis 19 Sodom and Gomorrah would be rebuilt In (Deuteronomy 9:4–5) God did not decide to command the Israelites to destroy all the inhabitants of Canaan simply because He promised Abraham that his descendants would inherit that land He commanded them to do it because the Canaanites were utterly wicked and evil people. If you’re connecting the dots… the ugliest most horrific thing in Genesis is the nation of Canaan. Why are they horrific? Because they sacrifice babies. Because of this, God sought to wipe them out. Israel was meant to purify and bring peace to the nations yet failed, we as Christians of the New Covenant are now called to the same commission. Have American Christians utterly failed? A God of Genocide? Total annihilation? The Bible uses a lot of figurative language and so do we. God is Grace love and mercy and even though we don’t have all the answers of an event that took place 4-5000 years ago we can trust the nature of God to be complete and holy and acting for the good of humanity, His treasured possessions. In Exodus 21:22-25 If people are fighting and hit a pregnant woman and she gives birth prematurely, but there is no serious injury, court for a monetary fine But if there is a serious injury, you are to take life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, burn for burn, wound for wound, bruise for bruise. Luke 1:41-44 When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the baby leaped in her womb. baby (Greek, brephos). children outside the womb (Lk. 18:15). Where do we go from here? Well first, everyone I know is a sinner, but some worse than others! (That’s another post on the problems of thew Calvinistic doctrine of total depravity though). We have all sinned and fallen short of God’s grace. We need the continued transformation to be more like Jesus each and every day. Luckily, the Lord’s arms are always open and outstretched to return to Him for healing. So, if you have made poor decisions, then you should seek to reconcile them before the Lord. Your already forgiven for them but sometimes there is some continued work to be done that comes with real healing. • Unfortunately, many Christians forget what the Love of Jesus looks like.

• They represent hate, hostility, and animosity more than they represent the love of Jesus.

• Jesus makes it clear that judgment and life in the kingdom are antithetical to one another.

• Jesus came to free us from judgment and to restore our capacity to love the way God loves.
