While we greatly rejoice at Miss Johnson’s repentance of her grievous sin in working for a organization that preys on pregnant women with unwanted children, that deceives them and then proceeds to tear the very life of God out of them in the form of an unborn child.

We have spoken of that God forgives us of many sins and errors in our lives, and that God can as well forgive us of many grievous sins and errors like Adam and Eve, like David and Bathsheba – but in cases of great sin and evil even with repentance and forgiveness from God Himself there are lingering consequences that follow one all the days of their lives. 

In the case of Adam and Eve the price for their sin though forgiven, was sin and death not only unto them but unto all their seed for the remainder of this world.   For David and Bathsheba it was sin and death in their household beginning with the death of the child she had conceived with David, it was the rape and defilement of one of David’s daughters by his son Amnon   It was the murder of Amnon by another son of David’s, Absalom.  It was Absalom seeking then to kill his father, deposing him as king and Absalom going and raping and defiling all of David’s wives that did not flee with him across Jordan. And finally it was with Absalom’s accidental death by hanging in a tree. 

This woman has a tough road to walk, like Paul the Apostle that held the coats of those that stoned Steven, and caused the death of many early Christians.  Paul though forgiven by Christ Himself had many things he had to suffer.  This woman will forever have her hands bloodied with the blood of all the innocent children she administratively assisted in having aborted.

We are in no wise saying there this woman is any less of a Christian than we would of Paul the Apostle after his conversion.  We are speaking to openness and lightness of oh so many believers today that they can willfully sin, that they can taint themselves with the world at no cost before God to them whatsoever.     

We write and speak of these sobering words as a stark warning to believers that would play with sin thinking that God will simply wink away their sins.  That would play with their perversion, their unfaithfulness, their lies, and their deceit, and do as they will against the words and commandments of Jesus Christ and the Apostles.  All in the deluded belief that in a time that is convenient for them; they will cry many tears, and that the Lord will simply forgive them of all of their willful sin and trespasses.

Galatians 6:7-8 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: (God is not deceived, God is not fooled, God is not tricked, God is not beguiled, God can not be bribed by either men or devils) for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption (Everlasting death); but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.  

While Paul is giving warning here in the sternest possible words to Christians, born again Christians, water baptized Christians, Spirit-filled Christians, when this passage is read this is somehow a disconnect.  A mental veil falls over these darkened hearts and minds that says: O Paul said this to the Galatians, boy am I glad I’m not a Galatian. Or that means that if I sow to the flesh it is not so bad, because if I sow to the Spirit at the same time I can have the best of both worlds. I can enjoy some of the corruption and sin in this life, and I can still get my mansion and walk on streets of gold also.

Little Children these are dangerous, dangerous damning thoughts and temptations in which you can as Adam and Eve in the garden trade your spiritual birthright for the knowledge of good and evil, whether it is in a love of the riches and the things of this world. Whether it is a taste of fornication, adultery, or whatever tantalizes your corrupt heart and soul.

All men are tried and tested throughout there lives to prove what sort of man they are.  And when one’s life is finished God shall see us and call us as we are. Liar, Thief, Murderer, Adulterer, Deceiver, for all of these the day of judgment shall be one of fear anguish of soul, of weeping of wailing, of gnashing of their teeth. . 

How much better would it be in that day for the Lord to call out to you, honorable, faithful, blessed, merciful, truth teller, lover of God, and friend.

It is the job of every believer to

1 Timothy 5:22 -- neither be partaker of other men's sins: keep thyself pure.

James 1:27 Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

Ephesians 5:27 That He might present it to Himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

1 Timothy 6:14  That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:

2 Peter 2:13 And (They) shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, (Who are they? What is the reward of unrighteousness?) as they that count it pleasure (They receive great delight, they receive great joy) to riot (To live in riches, to live in a lavish lifestyle, like as the Rich Young Ruler, to live as Kenneth Hagan, Kenneth Copeland, Oral Roberts and all their prosperity gospel clones) in the day time. (In the day of judgment) Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves (Sporting the life of the rich and famous) with their own deceivings (Boastful corrupting words) while they (Partake of the love) feast with you;

The prosperity Gospel though it is new to the end time church, this deceptive corrupting doctrine existed also at the time of the apostles. As we have steadfastly warned it is not the will of God for you to be rich. It is NOT the will of God to live the American Dream and live large.

Were there Christians of earthly substance at the time of the Apostles? Yes.  And as here and in other places these are judged by the Apostles to be on the path to eternal death.

Apparently James received by letter or a face to face with a group of wealthy believers, rich believers, filthy rich believers. and the Apostles James responds explosively to them, and their plans that included the hoarding of gold and silver. and goods for themselves to carry them through the great tribulation. Apparently these wealthy believers offered James to partake of their end time stores.
James 5:1-3 Go to now, (Depart from me [We should view James as saying Cursed be) ye rich men, (Cursed be ye rich men) weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you. (See it as it is written: Weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth for rich Christians) Your riches are corrupted, (Your riches have corrupted you before God and all that you touch with it. Neither God nor Jesus Christ allow Christian Utopias – aka My kingdom is not of this world.) and your (rich) garments are motheaten. Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, (Here in the word of God is the clearest passage against wealthy Christians living the life of the rich and famous – that this wealth and these riches shall become a witness against them – they will cry out to God on the day of judgment) and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.

The bible makes it clear that believers storing up gold and silver and wealth to carry them through the great tribulation is at enmity with God.

The bible makes it clear that the believers having wealth and riches corrupts them before God, as it is sowing unto their flesh. Not sowing unto the spirit.

The bible makes it clear here that those that want to be rich Christians benefactors supporting Christians ministries, and even doing all the right things to widows, the fatherless, orphans, the poor etc. will not fare well before God in the final judgment, but rather that there riches their houses and their lands will cry against them in that day.

We follow Jesus Christ not because it is easy. We seek not an earthly kingdom, but one that is not made with hands.

For all those who argue about the great riches of Abraham they forget that he founded no city for himself. He built himself no house but instead dwelled in a tent moving here and there as the Lord commanded. Much in the same manner as the children of Israel in the wilderness.

The Church that Jesus Christ established was also not to be fixed in brick and mortar because in so doing the church could not be as the wind no one knowing wither it cometh and wither it goeth,

In Matthew 24 end time believers are exhorted to have all their belongings ready at the door even as the children of Israel were to have all they needed ready at the door for the hour when Moses raised his rod that they should depart Egypt and flee to the wilderness.

Throughout church history there have been groups and bands of believers that have forsaken all to follow in the footsteps of Christ and to follow him out into the wilderness, In these days and times many gave their lives for the faith as ensamples that others might live. In the economy of God there is no room for any rich benefactors buying and giving their way to heaven. Jesus refused the Rich Young Ruler declaring for all time How Hardly Shall a Rich Man Enter Into the Kingdom.  – In the Greek How Hardly reads as It is impossible – for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom. This saying of all the sayings of Christ caused the apostles to greatly fear. As they all owned houses and lands of one sort or another – in other words there was not a beggar among them.  So that Peter cried out: Who then can be saved? as they saw their earthly possessions in the light of the kingdom of heaven for the first time.

Note that in time after Christ’s death each apostle forsook their earthly possessions and even their lives that they might gain Christ.

Against such disciples of Christ the gates of hell can not stand.

But of a truth the church made with hands of this day and hour labor and builds the gates of hell.  These labor in the flesh and build the way of the antichrist.

May these words burn in your heart and soul.

  

Former Planned Parenthood abortion facility director Abby Johnson was sitting at her desk when a co-worker at the center asked for some help with a woman getting an abortion.

 

“I could not have imagined how the next ten minutes would shake the foundation of my values and change the course of my life,” she says in her new book “Unplanned,” an expose of the abortion business and the abortion industry.

Johnson ran that abortion facility — a Planned Parenthood “clinic” in Bryan, Texas, the home of Texas A&M University. She spent ten minutes assisting with an ultrasound-guided abortion, and her reflection on it would change her life as she stepped down from her position.

“Oh, dear God,” she writes, “what had I done?”

In “UnPlanned,” Johnson tells the dramatic story of the journey that unfolded as a result of that fateful day in September 2009 and how she literally “crossed the fence” from Planned Parenthood leader to an advocate fighting for women in crisis – and the lives of their unborn babies.

Johnson shares that story in detail that is intimate and, as a result, unnerving.“UnPlanned” is not an easy book to read; it’s also not an easy book to put down. She realizes both are true.

“Here’s my question for you,” she writes in “A Note from Abby Johnson,” which immediately precedes Chapter 1: “…are you ready to look through the (pro-life/pro-choice) fence and see goodness, compassion, generosity and self-sacrifice on the other side? “Did you just feel yourself squirm? If so, welcome to my journey.”

After Johnson quit her position with Planned Parenthood, the abortion business failed in its bid to silence her. It had pushed for a restraining order on Abby Johnson and a pro-life group that helped her conversion.

Planned Parenthood officials hit both Johnson and the Coalition for Life with restraining orders requiring them not to disclose information about the abortions done at its facility.

But District Judge J.D. Langley issued a ruling saying Planned Parenthood did not provide sufficient evidence that Johnson breached a confidentiality agreement concerning identity of an abortion practitioner who works at Planned Parenthood.

Judge Langley also ruled that Planned Parenthood provided no evidence to back up its allegations that Johnson took confidential patient records out of Planned Parenthood on the day she resigned. The judge also denied a Planned Parenthood request to prevent Johnson from seeking any lawsuit until a trial or any other court action had been made.

The court decision opened the door for her to offer more specifics about her work at Planned Parenthood and the reasons she resigned.

Since her departure from Planned Parenthood, Johnson’s story has received major media attention at a time when abortion has become the central issue in the national debate over health care reform.

“Stories like Abby’s have a purpose,” says Fr. Frank Pavone, the national director of Priests for Life. “If we can better understand why someone has an abortion or how someone gets into the abortion industry and then how she comes out, we can come to understand the key to how our entire society can begin to emerge from the darkness of abortion.”

“Abby is not the first; she will not be the last,” Fr. Pavone continues. “She is part of a great ‘cloud of witnesses.’ I thank her for her courage, as I do to all who share their painful stories.”
