A Christian Witness at the DNC – Dr. Alan Keyes
A Christian Witness at the DNC – Dr, Alan Keyes
On Monday morning, August 25, 2008, Power in the Park started with powerful men delivering powerful speeches. The voices of four of the most cogent speakers on black genocide in America thundered in truth across Martin Luther King Jr. Park in Denver, Colorado, during the Democratic National Convention. The park is located just one half block from the country's largest killing center, Planned Parenthood. Dr. Alan Keyes, Reverend Jesse Lee Peterson, Reverend Clennard Childress and Flip Benham exposed the wicked racist agenda of the abortion industry.
There is change on the horizon, but it's not the change that Obama is trying to extract from your unwilling pockets. It's the kind of change that can only happen when men of God rise up, speak up, and lead as these men did. The audience was not only inspired; they were given direction and vision. The pro life movement has been without vision for decades too long. These four men along with American Right to Life and Colorado Right to Life have breathed life back into the long sleeping giant. We saw first hand exactly how that was happening at Martin Luther King Park last week. The orators and the audience walked the half block from the park to the largest Planned Parenthood abortion mill in the country. Theology was becoming biography at the gates of hell in Denver. What happened next was amazing.
Ron Brock was parked outside of Planned Parenthood with his Truth truck strategically placed. His protest signs lined the fence on the street in front of the mill. Dr. Alan Keyes witnessed a Planned Parenthood security guard stealing Ron's protest sign. Without a moments hesitation Dr, Keyes raced down the street shouting, "Stop, thief, return that sign." Dr. Keyes confronted the security guard and retrieved Ron's sign.
Rev. Flip Benham, director of Operation Rescue National was informed that security had taken additional signs inside the Planned Parenthood facility. Immediately Flip, 70 other Pro-lifers, Dr. Alan Keyes, and Clenard Childress of blackgenocide.org walked on to the property and demanded the signs back. The security guards (thieves) refused. "We are going to get those signs," said Flip. “You can either go and get them for us or we are going to get them for ourselves – the choice is yours.” At that moment the security guards understood that they were going to have give those signs back or have 70 Pro-lifers in their building. They promptly returned the signs to Flip and the gentle Saints left the property.
Most politicians would have silently tip-toed away afraid to be connected to those "nuts" and their abortion signs, but not so today. Dr. Keyes has said many times that we must not judge a man by his words or his works in ministry, but by his fruit. Dr. Keyes is not only a man of integrity, he is truly a hero and we know that by his fruit.
