Families used to come from all 49 states to the boom town of Granite City . Once known for its towering steel mills, it now draws families for the late-term, no parental consent needed abortion mill.

Marilyn just heard from Monique in Atlanta.  Monique, as you’ll recall, is the young woman who worked at the Atlanta , Georgia abortion mill and came out into the arms of OSA saints to begin a new life in Christ.

 Hi Marilyn, How are you and your family? It’s good to know you’re still hard at work saving lives. I'm going to have a new son, he's due March 12, 2010. I'm excited. I'm working fulltime as a medical assistant in Occupational Medicine. It’s great. I only work on the weekends and still am paid fulltime. I waited on the Lord and he delivered me with more than I imagined. Thanks for keeping in touch with me and keeping me posted on the wonderful work you’re doing with these expectant mothers. You made a difference in my life, those study cards are a great help as well. I still carry them you know! I must thank you and everyone else who keeps me in their prayers cause it is power in prayer, and to know that there were people who were praying for me was a great comfort in my storm. God Bless all of you! Monique

The Lord longs to be gracious to you; he rises to show you compassion … Blessed are all who wait for him! Is 30:18

Please read with care the following in the (read more) section put out by the Center for Moral Clarity of Rod Parsley Ministries.  It is dead wrong and will be the cause of many stumbling when dealing with Health Care reform.

Though it looks good on its face, it is in great error.  The language in the Stupak-Pitts bill passed in the House of Representatives to prohibit federal funding of abortion includes within it the exceptions clause (rape, incest, life of the mother).  This little clause is found at the heart of the Pro-Life Plank in the Republican Party Platform.  It sounds reasonable enough doesn’t it?  But it really means that all children conceived as a result of rape, incest, or a threat to the life of their mother, can be murdered with government funding.  Surprised? 

This nasty little secret - the exceptions clause - is what has prevented us from bringing abortion to an end in America.  Now the Democrats are trying to use it (exceptions) to help assuage their own guilty consciences and satisfy their constituencies who want Health Care Reform but without the federal funding of abortion.  Yes, you can have your cake and eat it to.  They are repeating the error of the Republican Party.  It contains within it the seeds of its own destruction.   

Let me put it this way, “If a child is conceived as a result of rape, or incest, or endangers the life of its mother, then you can kill the baby.”  Can a Christian possibly sign off on this?  Is this the great Pro-Life victory we are celebrating in dealing with Health Care Reform?  Please!

This little caveat, “then you can kill the baby,” is evil, morally repugnant, Biblically untrue, and a ruse used by the devil himself.  The devil would be more than happy to sign the Stupak-Pitts bill because the exceptions clause opens the door to murder any child, at any time, for any reason.

In Christian love,

Here is a powerful story of what Jesus can do when He is brought to the gates of hell.  When the Word of God becomes flesh, when the theology of the church house becomes biography in the streets there is no limit to what God can and will do.  Yes, Jesus showed up at Fort Hood in Killeen, Texas, through the lives of the Thomas family and they were given an incredible opportunity to speak to the world.  They spoke more truth in a few short hours than we have heard or seen in all the reportage of all the major media news outlets in the past five days - that includes FOX News!  God gave them a platform to expose to the world the hideous manifestation of the monstrous lie called Islam.  They beautifully and visibly portrayed the love of Christ for our troops and their families at Fort Hood.

As our nation seeks to recover from the "kick in the gut" perpetrated by another Islamic Jihadist attack, the media spin doctors are hard at work to present major Hasan as a victim of America's aggression.  He believed that America was at war against Islam and not terror.  In this, we are in agreement (Why does it always take our enemies to reveal the truth to America?).  Other sources reported that the "good major" perhaps suffered from "distress" over being deployed.  Regardless of the excuses made for his proclamation of "Allahu Akbar" (God is great) before he opened fire, we are told not to jump to conclusions or rush to judgment over the rampage committed at Ft. Hood.  After all, the greater tragedy would be the crumbling of America's idol of tolerance.

America, in its maddening attempt to revel in willful ignorance strives to maintain our illicit love affair with diversity.  Meanwhile, Islam continues to find a breeding ground to attack us from within and from without.  One lady is actually quoted as saying she was dreadfully upset that the mass murderer from Fort Hood "was not named Smith." 

What a queer remark.  Why would the name "Smith" help this woman cope better with this savage, cowardly assault?  Simply, it would not threaten her fantasy world of non-judgementalism.  She would not be forced to think, believe or act as if there are such realities as good and evil in this poor-fallen world. 

Islam is God's reality check for America.  Can we continue to survive rejecting God and our Christian heritage for a "bowl of humanistic pottage?"  We are selling our birth rite as Americans so we can be just as sophisticated and enlightened as the European nations that are in the midst of being conquered by Islam.

Cal Zastrow and Keith Mason have found themselves on solid ground as they continue to unsheathe the Sword of the Spirit (the Word of God) in Personhood Initiatives across our nation.  It is “Personhood” that allows the theology of the church house to become biography in the streets.  Yes, the Word of God is becoming flesh in the halls of our legislatures as we are finally given a piece of legislation that will move the heart and the hand of Almighty God.  All other legislative initiatives crafted to end abortion (parental notification, parental consent, 24 hour waiting period, fetal pain legislation, partial birth abortion ban, ad nauseam) are simply compromises with the devil.  He would sign every one of them.  “Personhood,” however, takes the Word of God and wields it.  The end of abortion is near – our ancient foe is doomed - one little word will fell him!

That word?  Personhood.

Enjoy!     

 Yesterday, November 5, 2009, gentle Christian warriors stormed the halls of Congress with one simple message, “KILL THE BILL.”  The Word of God became flesh at the very gates of hell – Nancy Pelosi’s office!  Here they confronted the real lie of Health Care.  It will fund abortions.  There is no escaping this fact, though the Democrats have made every disingenuous excuse to the contrary. 

We stand with them.  You will see some very familiar faces in this 7 minute and 30 second video.  Thank God for their stand!

An amazing thing took place yesterday (Wednesday November 4th).  Nine babies were saved from the clutches of death.  As two women ventured to two abortion clinics in the city of Charlotte, God showed up.  Here's the thing though.  All they did was show up.  They are not great evangelists or preachers.  They are just two simple little Christians living out their faith at the gates of Hell.  It is absolutely incredible what God can do if we just, “show up!”

This little video snippet from WEAR News Channel 3 in Pensacola, Florida, should give each one of us pause to rejoice in the Lord.  Though, tragic things have taken place at this mill (the murder of thousands of babies, the murders of two abortionists and a death-scort) the faithful witness of Mark Farmer and several other saints over the past thirteen years at Community Health Care on 9th Street in Pensacola has born magnificent fruit.

Yesterday was the culmination of their faithfulness to allow the theology of the church house to become biography in the streets.  He who is faithful in little will be faithful in much.  The doors of this place of murder are forever shut.  Thank You Jesus!

Enjoy!  

We are winning this battle in the streets! Another "abortion provider" is converted and quits as director of a Planned Parenthood branch! The abortion industry is no match for the Gospel of Jesus Christ!  Be encouraged saints - although the battle rages in our culture over who is Lord, Christ reigns Supreme and the gates of hell (the local abortion mills) are coming down when God uses gentle Christians to show up to proclaim His Gospel!

This just in from Joseph Parenti.  Mary Katherine Brown and the saints in Pittsburgh have been granted a tremendous victory by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 3rd Circuit.  Christians are now allowed to present the Gospel of Christ to women entering abortion mills.  Wait a minute - I thought we already had that right according to the First Amendment of the United States Constitution.

Not so fast.  Cities across our nation are crafting and passing little statutes and ordinances that are shutting down the proclamation of the Gospel of Christ in many ways and diverse manners.  If no one challenges these foolish ordinances they become a hammer city officials use criminalize gentle Christians.

In Christian love,

My wife and I wanted to thank all of you for your prayers and support during this past week.  I'm grateful to be home with my wife and family.The scripture that kept coming to me during my trial was, "be still and know that I am God" (Ps.46:10)  Truthfully I could do nothing else.  I felt the love and presence of Jesus through each and every prayer that was said on my behalf.  I am truly blessed to have so many faithful brothers and sisters.  Looking forward to seeing each of you again.  Until Christ brings us together again, thank you.

In Christ our healer,

Tom

Intimidation, threats, unlawful searches and seizures, chilling of free speech, ad nauseam; all comes to mind when dealing with the infantile ranting of these Greensboro police officers.  They have bullied local business owners, attempted to intimidate gentle Christian mom’s and dads, grandmas and grandpas - all to prevent us from giving a voice to voiceless children that are being slaughtered at a nearby abortion mill.  Why are they intent upon haranguing gentle Christians off of the streets?  It disturbs the peace.  Yes, the Gospel of Jesus Christ disturbs the peace of those who are killing children – ripping apart little baby boys and girls.

Here is Levi Gray’s report and a short 2 minute video of what happened in Greensboro last Saturday morning, October 24, 2009.

I just spoke to Jeannie Raddell at 9:45 AM EST Friday Oct 30,2009.  Tom-Tom is doing extremely well. Our prayers have been answered and even more.  The doctor told Tom this morning that he has never seen blood clots disintegrate any quicker than these.  They believe that what Tom is suffering from is a Pulmonary embolism. 

Tom is out of pain  and they are doing more tests on him today.  The best sign of Tom’s condition is that when they did not serve him breakfast this morning he was looking for it and hungry.  He feels fine and only wants his breakfast. ( Yesterday he was in pain and having trouble breathing.) They are doing more tests so they cannot feed him yet but the fact that he wants to eat is a great sign.

Jeannie had a smile in her voice when I talked to her and she wants to thank all of you for your prayers. All is going well with the business and at home.  We thank God for His answer to prayer.

We are thankful to God that these embolisms have dissolved faster that the doctors have ever seen.  God answers prayer in extraordinary ways!  

Dan Lee put together this precious 7 minute video that expresses beautifully the miracles that are taking place everyday here in the city of Charlotte.  From October 27, 2008, until today, October 27, 2009, there have been 443 babies saved from abortion at the three abortion mills in this city.  How is this happening?  What is going on?

The theology of the church house is becoming biography in the streets and the gates of hell are not prevailing against it.  It was on October 27, 2008, that we purposed in our hearts to be at the abortion mills every day that they were open.  God helping us we have done just that and, as we have, God has done exceedingly abundantly above all we could ask or imagine.  It was on this day a year ago that we decided to keep count of the babies we knew for sure were saved.  We have been absolutely amazed at what God has done. 

Tom Raddell, our dear brother, fellow worker, and fellow soldier in Christ, was admitted to a hospital in Cleveland last night (Monday night) at about 9:30 PM.  He was having trouble breathing.  So far they have found that he has two blood clots in his lungs and are using blood thinners to dissolve them.  They will be doing a series of tests on him today.  Please keep him in your prayers and pray too for Jeannie (Tom’s wonderful wife) and the family as they are now busy running the shop until Tom is fully recovered.  He expects to be in the hospital for three to four days.

I spoke with Tom and Jeannie early this morning and both seem to be in high spirits.  Tom is at Richmond Heights Hospital (room #230) in Richmond Heights, Ohio .

Dave Lackey joined with the saints in Connecticut to bring the light of the Gospel of Christ to the 24th Annual United American Muslim Day Parade on October 18, 2009, being held in New York City .  Here is Jeff Christman’s report.
