Granite City
stood for the least of these. His heart was broken at the apathy in this city
and the innocent blood that has been spilled onto the streets. A National Record
van from
St. Louis
,
Missouri
pulled in front of this abortion mill and brought out numerous boxes marked
“records”, and loaded them into the van. Hmm…could this have anything re:
the investigation of all the under-age abortions that are not being investigated
or reported to authorities?
Thursday-
midnite abortions -31
KS, IN, MO, IL
1 save- 2 young girls from
Kansas
talked with lifesavers and said they couldn’t go through with the abortion.
LaDonna, a Hope(less) butcherette, was being sued and was served a court summons
by a summons server in order to have her blood-money check garnished for
delinquent bills. What kind of people work inside these wicked places?
Criminals! Linda Stewart, aka Lynn Kahn did time in prison and so did Jewish
abortionist and felon Alan Palmer. The list goes on.
Friday-
37 TX,
IN, FL, MO, IL 1
save- They came back out and began arguing. The butcherette ran out after
the couple because they changed their mind and didn’t pay for the ultrasound.

driver pulled up to the purple doors and was surprised when confronted with her
business at this child-killing mill. The female driver said, “I need this job
to support my three kids.” We said, “There are other jobs that will provide
an honest living for you and your children; that you won’t have to live off of
blood-money.” She then went inside and brought out boxes full of fetal
specimen containers, placed them in the vehicle, and drove away. Families were
bringing children in to kill their children, four generations.
Saturday-
44 DE, TX, OH, NC, AR, MO,
IL
4 saves- Covenant Family
Fellowship in St. Genevieve and Community Bible Church in Swansea arrived early
as rain and cold-blustery winds ripped through the watchmen on the wall as they
stood in the gap rebuilding the wall with one male deathscort in place.
Assistant deathcamp director Allison Hile stood with him then eventually made
her way onto the front sidewalk where proclaimers stood singing God’s praises
and Bro. John and Shelly engaged in conversation with her. Point-men knew why
she was on the sidewalk, the devil would love nothing more than to see those who
are the most threat outside this belly of the beast to be distracted from doing
God’s work and throw them off course. Bro John spoke to Allison about God’s
forgiveness and mercy if she repented of her sins and Shelly shared her
emotional post-abortive testimony. At one point, Allison said, “I’m sorry
about your abortion.” A catholic woman sprinkled exorcism salt around Allison
and eventually she saw her efforts were wasted, but she did hear the true Gospel
of Jesus Christ through His saints on these frontlines of the battle for life.
We watched
a mother and father take their three children in to kill their little brother or
sister. They came out later with only 2 children.
A young
girl, who sidewalk counselors were able to talk to before she went in the
clinic, came back out with her friend, with tears running down her cheeks and
told us she wasn’t going to kill her child and drove away.
Another sat
in their car behind the abortion clinic and lifesavers spoke to them. After a
few minutes they drove off. PTL! Later
that day,
God just
touched another mother's heart at the
Rec
Center
, locally. Jesus spoke to her through our sweatshirt, she saw the scripture on
the back and had to keep up with me on the running/walking track to read it. She
came up to me (as I laid crumpled on the ground from exhaustion as I’m trying
to lose 20 lbs in twenty minutes, everyday ...phat chance) and just broke down
and told me how there was a spiritual battle going on inside her mind all day as
to what she should do. She was feeling guilty for being angry at her young
daughter earlier for not being able to find a babysitter for her so she could
work out and how could she go through this again?... And the devil was really
working on her. Then I passed her on the track and she read the scripture,
“Before I formed you I knew you... before you were born I set you
apart”…She cried and said this was confirmation! I then explained a little
of our ministry; she was blown away and said this was a divine appointment and
thanked us and asked if she could give me a hug!! PTL! God can even use a
sweatshirt to save a life...“through many or through a few...”
Persevere
and endure as a soldier of the Lord.
137
babies were killed. 6 babies saved.
1286 saves since January 2000 and 20 babies have been adopted!
As
Christians, we must be ever ready to sacrifice our own lives for others. When we
signed our lives over to Christ on the day of our salvation, few of us
understood the full implications of the fine print on the contract. It read in
part, “Must be ready to esteem others higher than yourselves. Must be willing
to lay down your life for others.” This is what Jesus meant when He said,
“Love your neighbor as yourself.”
For believers, rescue /lifesaving is the marching order of the day. Jesus
came with the ultimate rescue operation to save mankind from the weight of its
sin. His victory over death and sin is fully manifest in our own lives only when
we reflect His nature in our actions, that is, when we rescue.
The mission field is right in your hometown and the arena for service is
within your own community’s gates where abortion-minded moms walk our streets
and sit in our church pews. We must reach out to the women and men who believe
there is no other choice than to shed the innocent blood of their own precious
babies. Although the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution protects our
rights to publicly speak out and distribute literature, it may not always be so.
It may never be required, but we must be willing to sacrifice our jobs, homes,
and the prospect of a so-called normal life for the cause of Christ and to
rescue the babies slated for death.
In a nation whose laws promote abortion on demand (child-sacrifice), the
price of rescue has often been high. Jail time, fines, and lawsuits await many a
rescuer, but that price is small compared to the saints who have gone before us.
Hebrews
10:32-39 “Remember those earlier days after you had received the light, when
you stood your ground in a great contest in the face of suffering. Sometimes you
were publicly exposed to insult and persecution; at other times you stood side
by side with those who were so treated. You sympathized with those in prison and
joyfully accepted the confiscation of your property, because you knew that you
yourselves had better and lasting possessions. So do not throw away your
confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to persevere so that when you
have done the will of God, you will receive what He has promised. For in just a
very little while, “He who is coming will come and will not delay. But my
righteous one will live by faith. And if he shrinks back, I will not be pleased
with him.” But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of
those who believe and are saved.”
We must run this race to win. As Christians, we must not shrink back in
the face of adversity, but should rather trust God to preserve and empower His
people who walk in obedience. The Scriptures speak clearly. “Greater
is He who is in me than he who is in the world” 1 John 4:4. “Resist
the devil and he will flee from you” James 4:7. These are
covenantal promises from the One who never breaks His Word.
There are those who have carefully worked out their excuses in life so
that protecting their material possessions, their family’s comfort, their
church routines, or the status quo of the world can be well argued from selected
Scriptures. They raise their children thoroughly insulated from understanding
their duty to engage the wicked culture in battle, only to discover that in
doing so they have taught their children that Christ gives no power to overcome
the world. Their only power is to build a self-serving wall that the world is
always threatening to breach. Matthew
6:33 “But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things
will be given to you as well.” In the end, all that matters in life
is what we were able to do for others in obedience to God’s Word.
Rescue today and rescue often. Make your life count for God. You will not
live to regret the sacrifice or the impact your life will have on the world
around you. Your presence at an abortion clinic as a sidewalk counselor or
prayer warrior may save a mother from committing murder and a child from being
destroyed. At the very least, you will be a faithful witness for Christ.
We run to the beaches where stranded whales and seals wash up and rescue
back to the sea. Day after day, pre-born lil’ boys and girls “wash up on the
shore” of the death camps of the nation’s abortion clinics, driven, not by
the tide, but by the pro-abortion culture. Acting upon the words of our Savior
you can be their rescuer. You can make a difference in the lives of the
pre-born, one at a time, as you stand in their defense, obeying the biblical
mandates to repent, rebuke, and rescue.
On the day of Judgment, when God asks, “Where were you when they were
killing my children?” What will you say?
