This is the absolutely horrific invitation issued by Planned Parenthood, inviting anyone to come to the Democratic National Convention to receive a FREE vasectomy or abortion. What an affront to a holy God, the One who created humankind in His image. This is the major platform commitment to those who would vote for the democratic candidate for the office of president: abortions paid for by the government!
Let me make it clear: I could never vote for any candidate, regardless of party affiliation, if they support abortion. And yet this is a major, if not THE major issue being propagated by the Democrats. And now Planned Parenthood has the unmitigated gaul to actually broadcast the invitation to come to the convention and have an abortion while you wait on the next convention speech. What a travesty.
I, along with countless others, was appalled at the events of the opening ceremonies at this year’s Olympic games. What a slap in the face of Christianity. I made a commitment to not watch even one minute of the games due to this shameful performance. But now, I am even more appalled that the Democratic National Convention has become a place of child sacrifice, offering free abortions at their gathering. God cannot be pleased.
I am once again reading through the prophecy of Jeremiah and see striking parallels between the captivity of Judah at the hands of the Babylonians because of the people having turned their backs on God. Jeremiah, along with other Old Testament prophets, had sounded words of warning to the people, but they refused to listen to the prophet’s call to repentance. As a result, the people of Judah suffered tremendously at the hands of God as He used the Babylonians to destroy the city of Jerusalem, deporting multitudes to the land of Babylon.
Could this same type of judgment be looming ahead for the United States of America? Could this nation, which was founded on the principles of God’s Word, having now turned its back on those principles, expect anything different? I’ll leave you to answer that question for yourself. My personal response would simply be a quote of a verse from the pen of the Apostle Paul:
Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life.
Galatians 6:7-8 NKJV
This applies to individuals as well as to nations, as is seen clearly in God’s judgment of Judah in the pages of Jeremiah’s prophecy. Let us not think that America is somehow immune to the judgment of God. When a nation begins to flaunt its defiance of God’s Word in such blatant ways as we are witnessing at the Democratic National Convention, then, as I see it, there are only two options awaiting our nation: either repentance which will result in deliverance from God’s wrath, or defiance, which will result in the experience of God’s judgment.
Let’s be reminded of God’s formula for revival for a nation that has walked away from God:
If My people, who are called by My name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven, forgive their sin, and heal their land.
Second Chronicles 7:14
God help us!
