Is there a connection between the eclipse and the flooding left by hurricane Harvey?

I’ve recently read of folks using the end time scenario trying to make the connection between the eclipse and eschatology. These incidences happend within a week of one another. Typically, when something of the magnitude of Harvey hits us the end times speculators spring into action.

Others relate catastrophes that hit America to our support or lack of support of the current political state of Israel. What is missing from the equation? Most do not seem to consider America’s national sins can of themselves bring national calamity.

If there is some connection between the phenomenon of the eclipse with Harvey, there may be a better Biblical explanation. In both Testaments, when God pronounced judgments upon nations, his language dealt with withdrawing light and turning nations over to darkness and destruction. We see this pattern in the New Testament, when God judged the churches in the book of Revelation. He warned of removing their candle stick (light), if they do not repent and make things right with the Almighty.

Here are other examples from the Old Testament. When God pronounced judgment upon Babylon, He stated, “Behold, the day of the Lord comes, cruel, with both wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate; And He will destroy its sinners from it. For the stars of heaven and their constellations will not give their light; The sun will be darkened in its going forth, And the moon will not cause its light to shine. I will punish the world for its evil, And the wicked for their iniquity; I will halt the arrogance of the proud, And will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible. I will make a mortal more rare than fine gold, A man more than the golden wedge of Ophir. Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth will move out of her place, in the wrath of the Lord of hosts and in the day of His fierce anger” (Isaiah 13:9-13).

In another passage, God pronounced judgment upon Egypt. He declares, “I will also water the land with the flow of your blood, even to the mountains; And the riverbeds will be full of you. When I put out your light, I will cover the heavens, and make its stars dark; I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon shall not give her light. All the bright lights of the heavens I will make dark over you, and bring darkness upon your land,” Says the Lord God” (Ezekiel 32:6-8).

We know God created the sun, moon, and stars not to be worshipped, but as a source for mankind to know His awesome power, glory and Godhead. He also created them to give light and as a mechanism to tell time and seasons. When a nation crosses the line with the Almighty, He also uses the language of their existence as a warning and a pronouncement of judgement.

Now here is the thing. We know from history God judged the nations He warned. We also have no record of any physical phenomenon happening in the heavens. When God chooses that specific language it is prophetic, symbolic language that basically states that God is removing His light from men and nations due to their abominable practices.

This is exactly the same language that the Apostle Peter utilized when explaining the outpouring of God’s Spirit on the day of Pentecost. Quoting the prophet Joel, Peter states, “And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your young men shall see visions, Your old men shall dream dreams. And on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days; And they shall prophesy. I will show wonders in heaven above and signs in the earth beneath: Blood and fire and vapor of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the coming of the great and awesome day of the Lord” (Acts 2:17-20).

Most rejoice on the promise being fulfilled about the Holy Spirit manifesting in the early church. They tend to glaze over the latter part of the promise being fulfilled and that concerns the language of judgment, “I will show wonders in heaven above and signs in the earth beneath: Blood and fire and vapor of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, And the moon into blood, Before the coming of the great and awesome day of the Lord.”

True to God’s Word and warning, He birthed the church, established His Kingdom, filled His believers and in 70 AD judged the nation of Israel.

So, is there a connection between the eclipse and God’s judgment? You be the judge.

God raise up a corporate Moses in this generation as one man with one voice that declares to the bloody, perverted Pharaohs of this world, “Let God’s Babies Go in Jesus mighty name!”

“Leaders A Time Like This Demands”
Nov. 1st-4th, 2017
Indianapolis, IN

“When leaders lead in Israel, when the people willingly offer themselves, Bless the LORD!” (NKJV) -Judges 5:2

In July of this year, Operation Save America held their national event in Louisville, KY. The theme was taken from the book of Esther and called “For Such a time as This!” With the high praises of God in our mouths and a two edged sword (The Word of God) in our hearts, we fought the good fight of faith against the last remaining death camp (abortion mill) in Kentucky (Psalms 149:6). God granted us a worldwide platform as we ministered the Gospel of the Kingdom to transform the culture of death through the truth and love of Christ.

Some of what was accomplished during that glorious week spilled over into Indiana. We sent a team to Indianapolis to help local churches mobilize and minister at the exposed areas (abortion mills) in Indianapolis. They gladly received us. Together, we stormed the gates of hell, knowing full well they will not prevail against the obedient church of the living God.

Our OSA’s regional event, “Leaders a Time Like This Demands” is merely a follow up to prayerfully fan the flame that began in July. The theme for OSA’s regional event is taken from Judges 5:2. God’s Word states, “When leaders lead in Israel, when the people willingly offer themselves, Bless the LORD!” Some translations have other interesting insinuations for this verse. For instance, the CEB (Common English Bible) states, “When hair is long in Israel, when people willingly offer themselves—bless the LORD!” The CJB (Complete Jewish Bible) states, “When leaders in Isra’el dedicate themselves, and the people volunteer, you should all bless ADONAI.”

Taking all three translations of this verse into account, a powerful truth emerges. When leaders, lead, let down their hair as in the case of keeping a Nazarite Vow, and holy dedicate themselves to Adonai, powerful Kingdom manifestations emerge.

These variant translations come together to describe a certain kind of leader a time like this demands. Our nation needs leaders from the church house to the state house who have the eye of the tiger and will not flinch in their duty before God. The holy charge is to be salt and light in our culture of death and perversion. There must be a faithful remnant of leaders committed to discipling our communities, state, and nation once again according to the Great Commission commanded by our Lord (Matthew 28:18-20). Our nation is desperate for leaders who will be like the sons of Issachar, who knew the times and knew what Israel ought to do (1 Chronicles 12:32).

For four nights and three days, there will be intensified on-the-job training to become “Leaders a time like this demands.” We invite pastors, elders, leaders, and state officials to our rallies each night and training sessions each day. There will be a packet of good materials that will help equip those who come to prayerfully lead with solid Biblical principles, time honored truths, and historical lessons. A vision will be cast, Kingdom strategies presented, and Biblical tactics employed. It is our sincere prayer that we can return to Indianapolis to once more come alongside to help the church revive the work of God in the state of Indiana. God can bring life out of death, if we as His people obey. The following are the particulars. Hope to see you there for “Leaders a Time Like This Demands in Jesus’ name!

Greetings in Jesus Name,

 

Operation Rescue National (ORN)/Operation Save America (OSA) recently visited your city to bring to light the gross injustice of the shedding of the innocent blood of preborn children and the destruction of American families through abortion.  Gentle Christians came to the streets to peacefully interpose on behalf of those innocent pre-born children scheduled to die through abortion in Louisville.

 

We are writing to commend the many professional police officers we encountered during the week long memorial and Gospel outreach we called “For Such a Time as This.” They were indeed Louisville’s finest.

 

Rev. Chet Gallagher, a former Las Vegas, NV Law Enforcement Officer, functions as both Assistant Director of OSA and as Police Liaison. He began communicating with LMPD senior officers several weeks prior to our arrival. He and local ORN/OSA leader, Pastor Mark Cox, advised me that the communication, preparation and planning with LMPD staff was from the very beginning, “as good as it gets.” We appreciated working with the leadership team assembled under Deputy Chief Gregory Burns Jr.  Please communicate our gratitude to them and all of their fellow officers for protecting and serving our members and their families while we were serving in Louisville.

 

Each of these officers, in our view, went above and beyond what we have experienced in most other jurisdictions during previous ORN/OSA events. We were kept safe because both supervisors and the officers under your command remained vigilant, available and on high alert performing professionally throughout the entire week-long of activities. Consequently, our members and their families freely and securely exercised their First Amendment rights of religious expression, assembly, and more.

 

Our three pre-event meetings demonstrated that LMPD senior staff was fully committed to serving their community. They also provided the necessary police service required to facilitate our activities throughout the city.

 

Additionally, we appreciated the testimony of LMPD First Division Commander, Major Eric W. Johnson, during the Metro City Council’s meeting. When they were considering a permanent establishment of a “safety zone,” Major Johnson testified that LMPD had a long-standing and successful history of policing activities at that location. Not only did he express his confidence in his officers’ ability to maintain order, but went on to testify that he and other LMPD senior staff had met with OSA leadership. As a result of those meetings, he believed us when we said there would be no blockade of the EMW entrance during upcoming scheduled event. We kept our word and the police did an outstanding job.

 

As a side note, we still believe there needs to be a safety zone there. It is just not the one put forth by the Metro City Council. It is the preborn, the innocent victim, that needs to be protected, not the perpetrators who murder them for blood money.

 

This leads me to my last admonishment. The times in which we live are simply not normal times.  There is a thin blue line between the police and complete anarchy in our nation. We grieve, with you, over the slaughter of so many of our valiant Police Officers around the country. Many search for answers to the senseless slaughter and violence savaging our people. The Christian worldview shaped by the Bible forms the lens through which we can accurately view the world and bring relevant answers to our dilemmas.

 

A biblical principle that accounts for much of the violence that plagues America is discovered in Hosea 4:2. God’s Word warns, “Bloodshed touches bloodshed” or, as one translation states, “Bloodshed pursues bloodshed” (Hosea 4:2). This truth acts as spiritual gravity upon men and nations. It is inescapable. If we dare as a nation to willfully shed innocent blood in the womb, then we will reap bloodshed in our land. In the midst of this lawless brutality, God asks a question to the magistrates in Psalms 82:2: “How long will you judge unjustly, and show partiality to the wicked?” Proverbs 18:5 further states, “It is not good to show partiality to the wicked, or to overthrow the righteous in judgment.”

 

By codifying evil into law, decriminalized murder of the preborn, those assigned to enforce the “law” find themselves treating licensed murderers with so called “neutrality,”or in more egregious situations demonstrate “partiality” towards them. By doing so, law enforcement is touching bloodshed and is put at risk, along with the citizenry that condones this blood lust. Violence inevitably grows up like a rod as retribution for the crime of child sacrifice and the shedding of innocent blood (Ezekiel 7:11).

 

This is what happens when governments defend the indefensible. Instead of punishing the evil doer as God’s Word commands, our government protects them (the abortionists and parents that harm their children in the womb). Instead

of protecting those who are good (the innocent preborn), our government makes sure they are put to death unjustly. At that point, governments cease to be a minister of God and lawful agency of justice and become an enemy of God and an agency of injustice.

In light of this clear and present danger, I’m enclosing copies of a pamphlet entitled “An Open Letter to Police in America.” The Open Letter was, in no small way, influenced by the times in which we live, as well as by the relationships we have developed with many officers where we have ministered throughout our nation.

 

Be assured that we will continue to pray for our law enforcement officials, their families, and their communities. We desire the will of God, the Father, be accomplished in them for the good of our people and for the Glory of God alone.

 

Lastly, may I encourage you, in your role as Lesser Magistrates, to act to protect the innocent and encourage your police officers to exercise their lawful discretion to judge justly and not “overthrow the righteous in judgment.” These children in the womb have not committed a capital offense and thus do not deserve capital punishment.

 

It is for that reason that I’m privileged to send you and the senior staff at LMPD a small book on that topic. We prayerfully encourage you to consider this “Doctrine of the Lesser Magistrate” to instruct your officers regarding

interposition on behalf of the oppressed, the innocent, and the disenfranchised that they have sworn to serve and protect. If you need more copies, please do not hesitate to contact me. I’m absolutely convinced the truths contained in this book are vital for our future hope and security as a nation.

 

God promises in Isaiah 55:11 that His Word, after it goes forth, “Will not return to Him void without accomplishing the purpose for which (He) sent it.” With confidence in His Word, I anticipate Kentucky will become one of America’s first

surgical abortion free-states “For Such a Time as This.” Keep pressing on till that happens in Jesus’ name!

 

IN KING JESUS’ SERVICE,

Reverend Rusty Thomas

National Director, Operation Save America

The foundations are being laid for our regional event in Indianapolis, IN. Soon we should have the details of our host church and lodging. We need to start to pray and prepare now as we seek the Lord to Ignore Roe, Establish Justice, and End All Abortion Now in the Hoosier State.

Our theme for this regional event is taken from Judges 5:2 and based upon the song of Deborah. God’s Word states, “When leaders lead in Israel, when the people willingly offer themselves, bless the Lord!”

We will have rallies each night from 6:30 to 9 pm starting Wednesday, Nov 1st, and conclude Saturday night, Nov. 4th. We will have three days of street activities with different teams and different venues to spread the Gospel of the Kingdom as salt and light throughout the city.

Each afternoon, there will be training sessions for leaders, both church men and statesmen. We are putting together a professional packet of materials that will help leaders in Indiana to equip the saints and challenge the civil magistrate on the state level to do their duty to defend the lives of the preborn and preserve the God ordained institution of marriage.

Start inviting your friends, family, and churches to this event. We need to fan the flame of what took place during our national event in Kentucky. Some of what happened spilled over in Indiana and we need to follow up in Jesus’ name!

If our friends and foes  on both sides of the battle want to know if the Lord is using our vision and mission to bring godly influence in our nation, check out this message from a brother who is running for Governor in his state. I’m keeping his identity and state from public knowledge right now, until we can vet him.

 

This is just sent to encourage all the OSA leaders and laborers. God is watching over His Word to perform it in the lives of others. Some of these folks may become major players of the much needed change that will Ignore Roe, Establish Justice, and Abolish All Abortion Now in Jesus’ name!

 

Hello All,
My name is … and I am running for governor to end abortion and homosexual marriage. I am not writing you to ask you for promotion or money, but rather prayer. I came across Brother Rusty in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7-iYozTilY, and as he said, God is “actually looking for someone to stand in the gap!”
From that point I sought to find out information about Rusty and e-mail him. I then watched some of the videos on this page: https://operationsaveamerica.org/louisville-rescue/. I was proud of all my brothers and sisters who laid down their comfort for the unborn.
Finally, after reading most of the blog post entitled The Line Was Crossed… I read the following excerpt, “What happens if a governor of a state decides to do his duty to interpose and end all abortions from chemical to surgical in his state and the powers that be try to keep them open? That would be an incredible opportunity for the church to peaceably interpose and Rescue at the gates of hell. Let us keep our eyes on the prize and continue to advance the doctrines of interposition, on both the church and state level, and the doctrine of the Lesser Magistrate.”
I want you to know that I am that candidate that will do exactly that. In (his state) we don’t have to pass legislation to define babies as human from the point of conception because it already has been legislated. Similarly, in the (his state) constitution, marriage is defined as between a man and a woman. My point is that in (his state) all it takes is for one governor to do his job. After years of prayer, the Holy Spirit has not only led me to enter the race, but he’s also provided the finances I need without ever having to ask anyone for money. Additionally, the money I receive never comes out of my paychecks, that way I know the Lord is supernaturally providing for His will in my life.
So please pray for me, because ever since I announced my candidacy, the enemy has been going hard in the spiritual realm. Just like you, I cannot stand by any longer and allow children to be murdered while I sleep comfortably in bed at night. Thank you, brothers and sisters, for your prayers.
Finally, pray over the way the Father has called me to campaign. He has told me to forgo the traditional method and hold prayer meetings with the men of God in every county throughout my state. We are to call upon the Lord to use his hand to remove abortion and homosexual marriage. The prayer meetings are not being conducted in order that I become elected, but rather the Lord has called me to eventually unite the entire state in prayer so that the Lord can accomplish his will. Please pray continually over this subject. I’ve reached out to countless Christians across the nation for prayer and have not so much as heard back from one single person. I see that you guys are compelled to act upon your beliefs, and so I am sure that you will also pray for me. Thanks in advance!
Sincerely,

The most memorable events of the 2017 event were establishing the Doctrines of the Lesser Magistrate and Interposition in hearts of the OSA people, the state government, the citizens of the state of Kentucky and the manifestation of the Spirit of the Lord falling on our children. Plus, the Lord granted us a major victory against the federal government’s attempts to establish a permanent “buffer zone” at the last remaining death camp in Kentucky.

On Wednesday, a door opened for Rusty and Pastor Matt Trewhella to travel to the State Capitol, Frankfort, for a press conference on the state Capitol steps. The following is the press release from that press conference and the text of the full page ad placed in the Frankfort paper.

Operation Save America Open Letter to the Civil Magistrates and Citizens of Kentucky

“Now therefore, be wise, O kings; be instructed, you judges of the earth. Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling” (Psalms 2:10, 11).

Operation Save America will proclaim the Doctrines of the Lesser Magistrate and Interposition from the steps of the State Capitol. The state of Kentucky is in a unique position and has a rich history of reeling in the federal government’s actions when the federal government acted outside their constitutional restraints. Kentucky interposed against tyranny and said no to unjust laws. The Kentucky Resolution of 1798 stated in part “And that whensoever the general [federal] government assumes undelegated power, the acts are unauthorized, void, and of no force.”

The federal government [SCOTUS] has assumed for decades such unauthorized powers. The most egregious to our survival as a nation are the murder of innocent children in the womb and the redefining of the God-ordained institution of marriage. OSA submits to Kentucky that men should forbear, even for long painful seasons. There does come a time, however, when forbearance becomes sin and cowardice. We submit to you that the murder of innocent pre-born children should not be forborne. The perverting of marriage and a host of other evils by the federal judiciary should not be forborne. Who knows Kentucky, if you have come into the Kingdom “For Such a Time as This!”

Open Letter Ad

America’s founders understood and established a form of government known as federalism. True federalism understands that all levels of government possess lawful authority. An important aspect of federalism is that whenever one branch of government begins to play the tyrant, it is incumbent upon all other branches (whether federal, state, county, or local) to resist that branch – even if that branch is the Supreme Court!

Kentucky has a rich history in this regard. Just eleven years after the ink had dried on the U.S. Constitution, the federal government acted outside its constitutional restraints. Kentucky stood against their lawlessness. The Kentucky Resolution of 1798 stated in part: “…and that whensoever the general [federal] government assumes undelegated powers, its acts are unauthoritative, void, and of no force.” Kentucky interposed – Kentucky simply said “No” to unjust laws.

In our day, it has become painfully clear that the federal judiciary continues to play the tyrant. The Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) has consistently been the dispenser of unjust, immoral, and unconstitutional court opinions, including that preborn babies can be murdered and that a man can “marry” a man.

Tragically, governors, state attorney generals, and state legislatures have complied with these unjust and immoral opinions by hiding behind the common song of our day: “The Supreme Court has ruled – all we can do is obey.”

This mantra is a lie. It is not how our founders intended the states to respond to egregious acts of evil by the federal government. Rather they expected interposition by the states. They expected defiance. The song of their day was “Resistance to tyrants is obedience to God.”

The assertion that an opinion by the U.S. Supreme Court is “the law of the land” is repugnant to our form of government. The idea that SCOTUS is the final arbiter of what is or is not constitutional is pretend legislation. The belief that all other branches of government must bow down to the court opinions of SCOTUS is legal fiction.

Thomas Jefferson, who penned the Kentucky Resolution of 1798, responded to the false idea that the Supreme Court was the “final arbiter” of what is or is not constitutional. He stated, “The Constitution has erected no such single tribunal, knowing that to whatever hands confided, with the corruptions of time and party, its members would become despots.”

Men will forbear and so we should for even a long painful season, but there comes a point where forbearance becomes sin. There comes a point where forbearance becomes cowardice. There comes a point when men realize they no longer have the convenience of acting indifferently toward the unjust and immoral actions of their government. Our own Declaration of Independence established this truth for America.

Thus, we submit to the state of Kentucky that the lawlessness of the federal judiciary should no longer be forborne. We submit to you that the murder of the preborn should not be forborne. The perverting of marriage and a host of other evils by the federal judiciary should not be forborne.

A little known doctrine in our day that has been employed by men for thousands of years and has proven to peaceably rein in the lawless acts of government officials is the doctrine of the lesser magistrate. The doctrine simply stated is: Whenever the higher-ranking civil authority makes unjust, immoral, or constitutionally repugnant laws, policies or court opinions, the lower-ranking civil authority has both the right and the duty not to obey the superior authority, and if necessary, actively resist it.

You can learn more about interposition and the doctrine of the lesser magistrate at the website DefyTyrants.com. May Christ rally your hearts to righteousness and justice. May Kentucky make redemptive history. May you lead the way to protect the preborn and preserve the God-ordained institution of marriage in Jesus’ name! (2 Samuel 23:3) 1) Ignore Roe, 2) Establish Justice 3) Abolish All Abortion Now

The Spirit of God is Moving Among Our Youth

Before our national event, the Lord gave me a glimpse of His desire to move upon our young people “For Such a Time as This.” Some called me before the event desiring to step up, take more ownership for the ministry, and serve in a greater capacity. There was no peer or parental pressure for this volunteerism. It came of their own accord. Little did I know how significant this would become as we stormed the gates of hell in Louisville.

First, on Wednesday, we set up the Jumbotron and a powerful display exposing the horrors of abortion in downtown Louisville. It created no small stir. A group of local Satanists decided to show up and disrupt the witness. They brought their whistles, bugles, and large balloons to try and cover up our national sin that has brought national calamity upon our nation.

Our youth arrived just in time for the powers of darkness to manifest. Some were frightened, while other cried and trembled. Then something amazing happened. The youth began to worship God and His Spirit and glory fell upon them. All fear disappeared and our young became as lions.

The police were out in force witnessing this Mount Carmel showdown between light and darkness, the prophets of Baal and the children of the Lord. They saw older Satanists hurl blasphemous, vile, and profane insults against our children. They also saw our children on their knees weeping and praying for the souls of them who had been captured by the devil to do his evil bidding.

At one point, Coach Dave Daubenmire took the microphone and highlighted the stark contrast between the kingdom of darkness and the Kingdom of God. He asked the many police who were there which faith, worldview, and philosophy of life would be best for our nation’s future? The answer was self-evident.

The Ecclesiastical Court took place next day. There was another change in the “normal” way we did things. Yes, we had the coffins symbolizing the SCOTUS decisions that sent The US down the road to destruction. The Supreme Court, playing the tyrant, removed prayer and the Bible from our schools. They stripped our public buildings of the Ten Commandments. They decriminalized the murder of innocent children and perverted the definition of marriage. This Court has repeatedly shook their fist at God and under the color of law, established lawlessness. The federal judiciary has run roughshod over the constitution and the freedoms of America’s citizens. The Ecclesiastical Court holds the Supreme Court in contempt of the Supreme Being and His court. Any human law that violates God’s law is no law at all. Divine law trumps human law. Their unjust decrees are not law and therefore are not binding upon ourselves, our nation and our children.

This year the infamous decisions were depicted by two groups of men with coffins. The first group was made up of the leaders of today and they declared each decision null and void then stepped on the coffin. The last four decisions were represented again by OSA leaders but with their sons standing with them. As each in turn stepped forward they passed the mantle to their sons and the young men read the charges and declared the decisions not binding. The mantle was passed and the young men now stood with their fathers to defend faith, freedom, and family.

On Friday, there would be two more visitations from the Lord upon our youth. The children led by Pastor Dale Sochia led the charge that morning for our Psalm 8:2 day at the death camp. They played the instruments, sang the worship, prayed, and read the Scriptures out loud. At one point, Pastor Dale had them line up to pray for the souls of the deathscorts defending the death camp. Amazingly, the deathscorts could not take it and literally turned their backs on the children. The parable was striking. Just as they had turned their backs on the children scheduled to die and were consenting to their deaths, they were turning their backs on born children. This did not go unnoticed by the powers that be.

One federal marshal guarding the “bluffer zone” softened toward the end of our children’s ministry. Pastor Dale noticed him video taping the children. As Dale approached him and the Federal Marshall commented. “What you are doing with these children is just incredible.” The comment was meant in praise not suspicion. There had been a change even in the marshals’ attitude toward us. Our children became living parables of the Lord’s love!

That afternoon the miraculous took place. We are calling it the “Louisville Baptism Revival.” One young man desired to be baptized after we stormed the gates of hell that day. We stepped into the waters and God showed up. Three hours later we left those waters as young and old ran to be baptized.
They came as individuals, brothers and sisters, men and wives, fathers and their children. God sealed them in His Spirit and brought revival, healing, and quickening to the souls who were present. We started with one and ended with 48. No shorts, towels, or any preparations. It was just a spontaneous move of God as His glory falling upon His people.

U.S. Justice Department won’t ban pro-lifers from Kentucky’s last abortion clinic

There were many legal battles to fight as OSA came to Louisville “For Such a Time as This!” First, the City Metro Council tried to set up a safety zone. We actually agreed one should be established, but it should protect the preborn from their murderers. The church in Louisville rose up and their attempt to protect the murderers from the Gospel failed. Next, the Federal Government stepped in and charged the 11 rescuers with F.A.C.E. and set up a TRO right before OSA came to town. The timing was indeed suspicious. They had two months to intervene and did nothing until we showed up. Their purpose was to make the TRO permanent, but God intervened in a profound way. To our knowledge, this is the first time the Feds stepped in to defend abortion, withdrew and stood down.

How did this take place? Picture if you will, the rescuers in federal court up against 8 US Attorneys. All we have is one local attorney helping us pro bono, Vince Heuser. They lined up and coached their witnesses to paint us as dangerous criminals and domestic terrorists, the same tired, worn out song. It seemed inevitable the federal government with its heavy hand would have their way once again. Not this time, however.

When the federal government called Anna Ahola, the manager of the death camp to the stand, everything fell apart in their case. At first, they coached her on how threatened and intimidated she felt when Rev. Thomas came in to the death camp and handed her his card as a courtesy call. He was there to let her know OSA was having their national event in Louisville and they would be ministering the Gospel of the Kingdom at her death camp and city. After the US government was through with her slanted version of the truth, our attorney cross examined her testimony.

He asked, “Is it true that you were so intimidated and threatened by Rev. Thomas that you took his card and then asked to speak with him in your lobby. She replied, “Yes.” He proceeded, “It was so dangerous a situation that you spoke with Rev. Thomas for 20 minutes and what was the nature of the conversation? How would you describe it?” She answered, “Pleasant.” Actually, the nature of the conversation was her excusing and justifying her participation in evil and Rev. Thomas, lovingly, but firmly holding her accountable to God’s Word and calling her to repentance.

Mr. Hueser continued, “In fact, you were so upset that after Rev. Thomas left you called him on the phone to speak to him again. Is that not true?” She relied in the affirmative. The true nature of that call centered on Anna’s promotion of all the good works the abortion mill did on the side. Rev. Thomas responded, “Miss Anna, I’m a Christian man and will always commend good works, but that is not the issue here. We are dealing with the evil you are committing. You claim to be a Christian and yet you work at this wicked place. Regardless of your confession, murderers do not have eternal life abiding in them. Repent and come out from amongst them.”

After the brilliant cross examination, the federal attorneys had egg on their face. They dropped the TRO. It did not turn permanent and freedom returned to the streets in Louisville to the chagrin of the death camp. It is not an if, but only a when that death camp goes the way of every other bloody, tyranny of men.

Good Kingdom fruit continues to manifest in Louisville.

Good morning! My name is JoAnn McDavitt, I’m a Christian, resident of Louisville, KY and attended last week’s OSA rallies, work M-F, but was at the deathmill on Saturday, and I hope to volunteer there every Saturday now, the Lord willing! Thank you all!

There is a brother there in Texas who befriended me this week and encouraged me and stood beside me on Saturday but after Revelation was read and everyone began to get ready to leave, I didn’t get to say goodbye to him-his first name is Ashley.

Can you all please get a message to him that I thank him so much for his encouragement and kindness, and I pray God’s blessings on him and all of you all in this fight, and I’m going to help now in Louisville, the Lord willing and with His help!

I met Brother Spurgeon, and told him I plan to join his Sovereign King church in Sellersburg, IN (not far from Louisville)! What a blessing you all have already been to me, and I hope to give back to the fight to save the babies in Louisville!

You all woke me up that abortion really is MURDER and we have to fight it like we would any murder (I knew this, but was just passive and lukewarm, had grown cold in my dead religion). Thank you all for revival!

Rescue Testimony

Back in May on the day of the OSA abortion mill rescue in Louisville, I met Eric outside of the city jail. He and his wife were going through a very difficult situation. She had given birth and had serious complications. She was placed on a respirator and the baby was in the NIC unit. When she recovered, the police arrested her and put her in jail for missing a court date even though she had been in the hospital.

That day Eric was very distraught with a baby in the NIC unit and his wife in jail. We prayed for him and shared the gospel outside of the jail. Later that week, our church put a care package together and I took it to the hospital. The baby was there but Eric had stepped out. I left the care package and this was the last I had heard of Eric.

Then this past Wednesday in the midst of our outreach in the middle of the city where we had a Jumbotron and the Satanists had come out, I was approached by a couple. At first I thought they were people from OSA. The man asked if I remembered him. He said he was Eric and began to remind me about our encounter in May. He said he saw us on the TV news and had to come down to Louisville to thank us. He said our prayers were effective in getting his wife out of the jail and his baby out of the hospital. Furthermore, he had become a believer and both he and his wife had found help for substance abuse and were now free. His mother-in-law was there to thank us too.

I was in tears then and am now as I write this. God had used the rescue to allow us to impact Eric and his wife.

People have criticized the rescue and our efforts this week. But we are still seeing fruit. I pray God will let us see more for years to come. All the church has to do is show up.

Next Stop: Indiana

OSA is planning our regional event for the fall. It looks like we are heading back to Indiana to follow up on the work that took place there during our national event in Louisville, KY. Details will be coming soon.

God help us keep our eye on the prize as we continue to sow the doctrines of Interposition and the Lesser Magistrate throughout the United States.

We will create a Facebook Event Page as soon as we shore up the vision and mission. Please begin to pray, seek the Lord about this opportunity and come join us as we seek to Ignore Roe, Establish Justice, and Abolish All Abortions in the state of Indiana in Jesus’ name!
