ISLAM AND ABORTION vs. TODD BEAMER AND CHRISTIANITY The parallels between Islam and abortion are obvious. Both draw their logic from the devil himself. The logic for abortion goes something like this: "It's my life, my body, and my choice. I do what I want, whenever I want, and my one commandment is - Don't judge me! If I choose to kill my child, leave me alone. I will be as God!" The 19 men who hijacked our airplanes also made a choice. They determined who should live and who should die. It was a difficult choice, but they made it. It was their choice. It was their lives, their bodies, offered up to their false god, and no one had a right to interfere. We must not judge them, right? God will do that! This pro-choice logic is birthed in the pit of hell! The tragedy of 9-11 is graphic evidence of God's judgment upon America. "See, The Lord is coming out of His dwelling to punish the people of the earth for their sins. The earth will disclose the blood shed upon her; she will conceal her slain no longer." Isaiah 26:21. The over 3,200 precious souls murdered on 9-11 by Islamic terrorists serving their false god, is roughly equivalent to the number of children killed every day in America by mothers choosing to be god. God is exposing America! There were some on that fateful day, however, who bravely stood in the way of those forcing their choice upon the lives of others. Todd Beamer and several of the heroic passengers and crew aboard United Flight 93 didn't buy the pro-choice malarkey. They physically intervened in the battle. They prevented the Islamic terrorists from bringing more destruction of human life. They acted, at the cost of their own lives, and crashed that airplane into a field in Shanksville, PA, to save the lives of others. "Let's roll!" This is pro-life logic birthed from the very heart of God. Todd Beamer was a Christian! He knew he couldn't just pray, preach, or teach at a time like this. His theology became biography on that airplane. Todd followed His Lord, laying his own life down that others might live. Thank you, Todd. You taught us well. " You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body." 1 Corinthians 6:19-20. For those who believe this message too harsh, you need only read Luke 13:1-5 to see what Jesus said when confronted with the catastrophes (one of a tower falling on people) in His day: " unless you repent, you too will all perish." This was certainly not a very positive or uplifting message. Jesus made it clear that catastrophes like these, and the one we experienced on 9-11, should not cause us to reflect and remember, but to REPENT! "But we haven't done anything to repent of!" you may say. "We are covered by the blood of the Lamb - we are not guilty. We are in the New Testament dispensation of grace." Try that one on the police officer when he pulls you over to the side of the road for speeding. "Officer, I'm covered by the blood of the Lamb. I'm innocent before God - He only sees me through the blood of Jesus. I'm not guilty!" It won't fly. And if it doesn't work on a policeman, I wouldn't recommend trying it on Almighty God. Flip Benham
