The Wolf At The Door


As I’ve openly admitted often, I don’t consider myself the sharpest knife in the drawer, but I can recognize the fang-barring wolf staring at me, especially since it has become so brazen it doesn’t even wear sheep’s clothing any longer. I don’t want to get off on a rant here, but; Fifty plus years ago I graduated from high school and I don’t think I even knew what an abortionist was. The annual report of “Planned Parenthood,” FY-June 30, 2018-19, supported by your tax dollars, outside influences and the sale of aborted baby parts, page 24, states “Abortion Services” 345,672 procedures. Now take this in: That’s 947 legal murders per day! That’s only one of the several questionable “services” provided by Planned Parenthood. They are also involved heavily in culture, law and government manipulation, much of it against the will of the people of this nation. Since the U.S. Supreme Court’s Roe v Wade decision made the procedure legal in 1973, it is known that 50 million abortions have been performed. The National Highway Safety Board works harder every day trying to save the lives of 100 accidental deaths, (average per day in the U.S.) with a louder voice than any protest against Planned Parenthood policies.


[Psalm 33:12-22; Proverbs 14:34] Sadly, this nation and the world have changed morally and spiritually. The gospel of Christ is no longer accepted as the “one way” and the thought of “God’s way or no way” has become a case of unfair judging because God’s Word demands obedience. Today we are told we must become progressive in our thinking. If our faith is truly based on love then we must be tolerant, open to all ideas, open to all people and open to every way of thinking. To be anything less is intolerant and old fashioned. Progressives throw Romans chapter 14 at the conservative Christian in an attempt to belittle their religious faith. Romans, is a letter written by Paul to the believers in the church at Rome. Their faith is still transitioning from a physical only relationship with one another to an added spiritual relationship with one another. Judging one another based on one’s cultural background will not help any of them grow in their faith of the gospel of Jesus Christ. This letter has nothing to do with getting along with the unbelieving world, nor accepting or being tolerant with its evil desires. Then throw in Matthew 7:1 and the Christian must, according to the “new mindset,” accept anything and anyone’s ideas. In the sense of the matter I do not have the right to judge anyone as to what I think they are doing, right or wrong, and what their reward or punishment ought to be. But, I do have the right to judge whether or not I wish to be a part of another’s activities according to my moral and ethical beliefs. And, excuse me, I have the right to speak just a loudly about my conservative lifestyle as anyone has about their lifestyle. I will continue to be aware and vigilant of the wolf - to avoid his advances as he attempts to devour my faith in Christ. Consider this before it’s too late to save our nation. “Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people he chose for his inheritance. From heaven the LORD looks down and sees all mankind; from his dwelling place he watches all who live on earth - he who forms the hearts of all, who considers everything they do. No king is saved by the size of his army; no warrior escapes by his great strength. A horse is a vain hope for deliverance; despite all its great strength it cannot save. But the eyes of the LORD are on those who fear him, on those whose hope is in his unfailing love, to deliver them from death and keep them alive in famine. We wait in hope for the LORD; he is our help and our shield. In him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in his holy name. May your unfailing love rest upon us, O LORD, even as we put our hope in you.”
