The Trumpet Has Sounded-Three Day Fast and Prayer!

Here is Rusty’s call to fast and pray (July 11-13) for our National Event in Orlando this July 16-23, 2011.  We must be a people prepared and ready for the battle God has called us to fight in this very busy city.

Looking forward to storming the gates of hell in Jesus’ Name with you this summer.

 In Christian love,

 Flip

by Rev. Rusty Lee Thomas

Time is drawing near for our national event in Orlando, Florida. The dates are July 16th-23rd. Saints are preparing all over America to come to Orlando for such a time as this. We are praying that you as well are planning to participate in a viable way to see God’s Kingdom come and His will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Before the boots hit the ground, OSA is calling for a three day period to fast and pray. When one confronts the crown jewel of the demonic realm, child sacrifice and the shedding of innocent blood, the church needs to spiritually prepare for the great battle that is raging for the souls of men, the lives of children, and the future of our beleaguered nation.

First, Jesus told us plainly that apart from Him we can do nothing (John 15:5). When it comes to the demonic strongholds, Jesus stated, “However, this kind goes not out but by prayer and fasting (Matthew 17:21).” Our goal is to prepare and meet the righteous requirements that will prepare the way of the Lord to visit the city of Orlando to plunder the powers of darkness and set the captives free. We need the Lord’s presence and power to go before us to touch hearts and change minds.

Therefore, we are asking all those who are willing to join us from Monday, July 11th-13th to deny your belly, take up your cross, and follow Jesus in this time of prayer and fasting.

Joel 2:12-18 and Isaiah 58 can help serve as prayerful, Biblical guidelines as we seek God to bring down the strongholds of child-killing in Orlando.

Therefore also now, said the LORD, turn you even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning: And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn to the LORD your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repents him of the evil. Who knows if he will return and repent, and leave a blessing behind him; even a meat offering and a drink offering to the LORD your God? Blow the trumpet in Zion, sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly: Gather the people, sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children, and those that suck the breasts: let the bridegroom go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of her closet. Let the priests, the ministers of the LORD, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare your people, O LORD, and give not your heritage to reproach, that the heathen should rule over them: why should they say among the people, Where is their God? Then will the LORD be jealous for his land, and pity his people.

Isaiah 58:6 states, “Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that you break every yoke?”

Please respond to this call and let us know if you will commit to this time. Even if you do not plan to be in Orlando, you can still help the cause of Christ and His little ones by joining this consecrated time to fast and pray. Thanks and please help spread this call to others in your sphere of influence.

God is Going Back to School – Connecticut

The saints in Bridgeport, Connecticut, did their final outreach this year in their “God is Going Back to School” campaign.  What a powerful way to bring God back to school by allowing the theology of the church house to become biography at the local schools in our cities.  We don’t have to wait for a newly elected President or Congress; we can simply live our faith out in the streets of our cities and watch Jesus do exceedingly abundantly above all we ask or imagine.  Enjoy!  ~ Flip

God Went Back to School Today  – Bunnell High, Stratford 

“I am praying not only for these disciples but also for all who will ever believe in me because of their testimony. My prayer for all of them is that they will be one, just as you and I are one, Father — that just as you are in me and I am in you, so they will be in us, and the world will believe you sent me.” (Jesus’ speaking) John 17:20-21

Twelve of us got up real early this morning to be at the high school before 7 AM to bring the Gospel of Jesus Christ to teens in our community. (Michael, Rich, Gloria, Susan, Tom, Ron, Pam, Brenda, Vinny, Carmen, Danny & Me). The police were notified yesterday of our outreach.  We prayed before and after that God’s word would go forth and do what He wanted to accomplish. Thanks to all of you for laying down your comforts to try to help your neighbor. We passed out info on salvation,abstinence and abortion. We used Rusty’s flyers, Mark Cahill’s booklets and OSA tracts. We believe that God will use every piece of literature for His Glory!  We also had signs showing the difference between a live baby and an aborted baby.

We gave out many of pieces of literature. It was a suburban school, not like the inner city schools where most of the kids walk in. Most kids at Bunnell either drive in, are dropped off or go on a bus. We were able to give literature to most of the students that walked in. Some of the parents weren’t happy. One asked the police woman if it was legal for us to be there and pass out literature and she said “yes”. It is our first amendment freedom to assemble, to distribute literature and hold signs. This is still America.  A dad asked Carmen for the literature and then proceeded to complain about us being there and talked to our attorney who was there with us. He said he was going to sue us, that we made his daughter late for school and if she didn’t do well on her test it was our fault. One school administrator was on the sidewalk near me and told a couple of kids they didn’t have to take the info or they could throw it away. (That would make most kids want it and read it.)

On the front side where Danny was, a Marine talked to him and said he was a Christian and a street preacher. He wanted to know all about our ministry and what we do. Vinny gave him his card. There were two police officers on that side that were very polite, took tracts, wanted to know more about what we do. A man that lived in the house on the corner near Danny told him we were right for being there.

Please join us as we reach out to those who find themselves where they should not be. Four babies have been saved so far this month. We will be in Bridgeport and New Haven tomorrow, next week Bridgeport schedule  is Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday. We are there at 8 AM – 10 AM at 3787 Main St. Bpt. We will be there until the killing stops.

For the Least of These,

Baby Abigail Takes Baton Rouge by Storm

We all prayed for Dale and Michelle Sochia to be blessed with another child at our National Event in Charlotte last summer.  From her miraculous conception to this very day baby Abigail has been a powerful voice for her preborn brothers and sisters.  She has won the hearts of all in the Capital building of the state of Louisiana.  God Himself has given her a platform to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves.

Enjoy!   ~ Flip  

by Dale Sochia

Well, we knew Abigail was going to be something special right from the beginning.  Starting from having hands laid on us and trusting God we would conceive, to the rocky road of pregnancy.  While during the whole time, trusting God and watching Him show up and thwart the devil at every turn.

Things being challenging throughout, turned very interesting toward the end of March.  While getting ready one morning, the Lord told me in my heart to “take my daughter to the abortion clinic.”  My reply to the Lord was, “Lord you know me, all my children have been brought up and encamped at the gates of hell; you know I’ll bring her there.”  But, maybe he wanted me to bring Michelle there while pregnant and still on limited activity.  By that afternoon it was very clear to me what the Lord meant.  When we received the 4-D ultrasound picture it was one of the most testifying things I’ve ever seen.  That picture!  God wanted me to bring this picture (which I have attached) to the clinic and introduce the women going in to kill their babies to my daughter, Abigail.  On the first day FOUR woman turned away!! Over the next few weeks some 12 woman, after seeing Abigail’s 4-D picture, made the choice to keep their children!  PRAISE GOD!!

Fast forward, as many of you have read in the latest OSA news letter, Baby Abigail visited the Capitol of Louisiana as our bill to ban ALL abortion was being heard in committee.  We had front row seats, which meant anyone watching this in any other places in the Capitol saw baby Abigail.  I filled out a card for Abigail to speak, and when they called her, she spoke louder than words!  Just her being present, and then showing her to all in the room, did I then make this statement, “Baby Abigail is here to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves!”  I turned to show all in the room, and the chairwoman, Mrs. Katz, then replied with this statement, “What a well-behaved baby, and I believe the YOUNGEST person ever to speak at the State Capitol!”  When I left that room I had people coming up to me as if they knew Abigail personally and asking to see her … I mean groups of people!!

Well, that brings me to this week.  Our bill was to be heard on the house floor on Tuesday, so off to the Capitol we went.  Upon arriving, I scooped up Abigail and made my way to the entrance.  The first time we went there, we had to unload everything for the security … our pockets, phones, diaper bag, baby blanket, etc …  But that  morning, when I came through the door, the security person said (and I quote), “Oh, come right on through, don’t worry about doing anything, WE KNOW HER …”.  I said to them, “Excuse me?” Then their reply was, “We all know Baby Abigail here, come right on through with her!”  I felt like I was on Candid Camera, but that couldn’t be, they even knew Abigail as they called her by name!  Then, they wanted to see her!  They said she has been all over the news, and newspapers, and all know her.  So if ever in Baton Rouge to visit the State Capitol, bring Abigail, she  has “Special Clearance”.

Sixteen and Pregnant and other TV Series

Kirsten Salzano asked me a question that I felt needed a very direct answer that would expose the truth as to why these new “teen” TV specials never deal with teens getting abortions and the wonders thereof.

Kirsten is a wonderful friend of this ministry and was saved out of the abortion industry in Dallas, Texas.  She was the director of the A-Z abortion mill in Dallas, Texas.  Mark Gabriel had much to do with her coming to Christ.  She has become an eloquent spokesperson and witness for King Jesus.  She asked me a very poignant question.   ~ Flip

Hey Flip,

Hope all is well!  I was reading the email about Mark.  I have been talking to a group of teens from Alee’s church.  One of them noticed something.  There are two “teen” shows on, “16 and Pregnant”, and “Secret life of American teens.”  What one of the girls, who admits to watching them noticed is, they have gone as far as to show 15 year olds pregnant, one is reality show, one is a drama, but they have never shown a teen make the choice of abortion.  Why do you think that is?  I don’t think it’s being politically correct (they passed that line a LONG time ago).  One couple did choose adoption, and it followed them after their open adoption…I just wonder why we aren’t seeing reality shows about abortion.  As sick as that is, it wouldn’t shock me if PP tried to make money off of it.

Kirsten

Dear Kirsten,

You have a good point.  Why don’t these shows ever deal with a teen that chooses an abortion and show how happy she is that she killed her own child.  I’ll tell you why.  No matter how much they will deny it, there is a “spiritual gravity” just as true and absolute as the “physical law of gravity” which applies to all people on this planet, at all times, in every place.  That spiritual gravity is found in Proverbs 28:17, “A man tormented by the guilt of murder will be a fugitive till death; let no one support him.”

No matter what you do or how hard you try do deny, justify, rationalize, or play the role of a victim with abortion; you will become its fugitive.  Yes, that which you were promised would set you free (abortion) will become a ball and chain around your neck dragging you into the depths of despair, despond, and depression.  You will not be able to make the voices go away.  Like a python wrapping itself around you until it squeezes out every last breath of freedom, you will find that what the Bibles says is true – you will become sin’s fugitive. 

A guilty conscience needs no accuser.  Yet the devil himself, the very one who promised that abortion would set you free, will become your biggest and loudest accuser.  He will jump on you as soon as you walk out the abortion mill door and tell you that what you have done is so evil, so vile, so wicked that not even God can forgive you.  He will scream into your mind and heart that you have committed the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit and can never be forgiven.  He is such a liar, but you will believe what he says.

Your self-loathing will know no bounds.  You will do anything to make the voices go away but you won’t be able to silence them.  Your abortion will haunt you for the rest of your life.  You will find that you can’t drink enough margaritas to assuage your guilty conscience, not enough relationships with other men, not enough money, not enough fame, not enough education.  There is not enough Zoloft and Prozac, nor are there enough hours on a psychiatrist’s couch to fix the fix that you put yourself in.

God says, “You will be a fugitive until death.”  There is no way out.  Abortion does not bring happiness, only relief, and that only for a short time. The moment of your abortion is the best you will ever feel about it.  The rest is misery.  There is no happy ending.  Abortion cannot be redeemed.  Even those doing TV reality shows or dramas realize this.  They cannot somehow paint abortion as a good thing that brings happiness and joy.

So pay attention to what these TV shows are saying.  There is not enough lipstick in hell to cover-up the ugliness of this pig and make into something beautiful.  Again, abortion cannot be redeemed – only repented of.

Thank God for Jesus, huh Kirsten!  “If the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.”  He is the only answer God has provided to pay the penalty for our sin.  “Then you will know the truth and the truth will set you free.”  It is in Jesus and Jesus alone that God can break the chains of sin and death – no longer a fugitive but God’s free man.  The spiritual gravity that makes one a fugitive is overcome by the One who sets us free.

In Christian love,

Flip

Ryan Goskie Dead

I had the privilege of meeting Ryan Goskie on several occasions as we stormed the gates of hell at the Granite City abortion mill in Illinois.  Daniel and Angela Michael knew Ryan well.  He became one of their greatest adversaries as they stood for the lives of the children scheduled to die at the mill.   Though he did all he could to stop the Gospel proclamation, the saints in Granite City continue to have a powerful Gospel impact at Hope (Hopeless) Women’s Clinic in Granite City.  Thousands of babies have been saved from abortion, many clinic employees have quit, several others have come to know Christ, and business has been cut by more than half since our National Event in St. Louis in the summer of 2000.  The saints in St Louis have been living out their faith in the streets and God has blessed their efforts.  The gates of hell cannot prevail!

Ryan Goskie was 15 or 16 years old when I first met him.  He was a volunteer deathscort at the Hopeless abortion mill.  He was a very gifted and attractive young man with a sparkling personality.  He was, however, a young man looking for a reason to live and a purpose for his life.  I was privileged to share the Gospel of Christ with him more than once.  I know that the saints in Illinois, who also shared the Gospel with him, were harassed by him at almost every turn as Ryan turned his back upon God and rushed after the lust of his own flesh.  Ryan became a hardened scorner of God’s Word and a murderer of those too small to defend themselves.  His was a wasted life that the devil used to bring great destruction.  He ran from those who truly loved him (God most especially) into the arms of one who hated him and desired his death.

Ryan Goskie, died this week at the age of 25.  My heart breaks over him.  He had so much potential.  He had so many opportunities.    ~ Flip

Former Abortion Mill Director of Nurses

by Angela Michael

“For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 6:23

Ryan arrogantly posturing inside the abortion mill

Ryan Goskie was only 25 years old.  Daniel and I warned him and spoke to him this past Saturday morning as he walked inside Hope Clinic abortion mill. He worked here per diem after quitting his fulltime position this past fall killing babies inside this late-term abortion mill for the past 8 years. He gave us no reaction. Ryan started as a volunteer deathscort and worked his way up with the feministic guidance of former godless career baby-killers inside the Midwest’s largest late-term abortion mill. Through the years we were kind to Ryan, but we still told him the truth in love. He repaid us by harassing our ultrasound van and summoning local police posing as meter maids to issue us outrageously priced parking tickets that we are still dealing with in the courts. He and Trish Wallis (another former abortion mill volunteer) would come to the Granite City parades to sit and watch the townsfolk, “Beat us up,” (as Ryan put it) when we asked him if he was there to help us. He pushed our young son to the ground when an ambulance pulled into the abortion mill garage to transport a butchered mother.

The obituary read that he died at a St. Louis area hospital where he sought medical treatment for gastrointestinal pain. I can’t help but think maybe it was his lifestyle that killed him. He appeared to be a misguided kid working at the local Weather Vane Ice Creme shoppe and volunteering at an abortion mill. He was flirting with the homosexual community as a deathscort. His obituary read that he left behind his partner Jason. After graduating from nursing school our worst fear was that he would train to replace the aging abortionist Yogendra Shah. Ryan helped kill babies inside Hope abortion mill and went as far as to boast on the internet that he personally trained residents at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri on how to dismember babies in the womb. We don’t know how much truth is in that posting, but he enjoyed his time inside the abortion mill until we let the public know what he did in Granite City and asked for prayers. He soon quit this past November. Read “Director of Nurses Quits” www.smallvictoriesusa.com Ecclesiastes 7:2 “…death is the destiny of every man; the living should take this to heart.”

We noticed that the abortion mill was eerily quiet this past Tuesday, but attributed it to the heat wave we are currently experiencing. We now know it was because a fellow baby killer died, which hopefully will make those likeminded employees pause and rethink their position with the Lord and His laws. We never know when God will call us back. Whether we believe in God or not, every human being has an expiration date.

We noticed that there was no mention in the obituary that Ryan was a long time employee at Hope Clinic. Our prayer is that in Ryan’s final hours he came to know Jesus again and entered into full repentance for all the innocent blood his hands helped to shed.  May God comfort his grieving family and have mercy on Ryan’s soul.

Salisbury Pride Denies Church a Booth at Pride Celebration

President Barack Obama is celebrating the month of June as National “Pride Month.”  He has issued this joyous proclamation inviting all of those enslaved in homosexual bondage or other sexually deviant behaviors to  come out of the closet and parade their sin like Sodom in cities across our nation.  What a brilliant thought, “…Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.”

This devil may care attitude is found in both the Old (Isaiah 22:13) and New (1 Corinthians 15:32) Testaments.  It refers to a people who have utterly forsaken God and are doing their own thing – everyone doing what is right in his own eyes.  President Obama is our leader, and this is his self-chosen path.  Unfortunately God has a Word for us all.  “…Till your dying day this sin will not be atoned for, says the Lord, the Lord Almighty.”  Isaiah 22:14.

“If the devil throws a party, it is imperative the Church of Jesus Christ show up!”         ~ Flip

by Rev. Flip Benham

Believe it or not, those who scream “Tolerance” the most are really the most “Intolerant” of all.  Salisbury Pride, although inviting church groups and non-profits to buy booth space, has taken upon itself to be the ultimate censor of churches with whom it might disagree. 

Kerygma Church of Kannapolis, North Carolina, applied for booth space at the first annual Salisbury Pride event that it might pass out Bibles, water, and Gospel tracts.  This was the response we received yesterday, June 6, 2011.

“The Steering Committee has reviewed and considered your application to be a vendor at the 2011 Salisbury PRIDE Celebration. Unfortunately, we have concluded that the values and mission of this celebration and those of your organization are quite diverging. Therefore, we respectfully decline your offer to be a vendor at Salisbury PRIDE.

Regards,

Salisbury PRIDE Celebration Steering Committee

So now, at least, the truth is known.  Salisbury Pride will not tolerate God, the Bible, Gospel tracts, or free water given out by Christians who love Jesus – the real Jesus!  Salisbury Pride is a blight upon this wonderful city.  It is at war with God and His Word.  If God shows up, He will ruin the orgy.  It is agonizingly hard for those enslaved to homosexual sodomy to enjoy their sin when they know that the piercing light and truth of Almighty God is exposing their fruitless deeds of darkness. 

So the devil is throwing a party in Salisbury on Saturday, June 25, 2011.  It is imperative that the true Church of Jesus Christ show up.  If we love our children, our city, and our nation, this censorious abomination must be confronted with the claims of Christ.    

Here is your invitation from Salisbury Pride.  Meet us there.  We will be the ones carrying our Bibles.

Saturday June 25, 2011

June 25th, 2011 will be Salisbury’s first Pride Celebration. We are excited to be the first city to kick off the 2011 Pride Events for North Carolina. Thanks for all of your support and we are looking forward to you being there as we make history in Salisbury, North Carolina. If you are not a member of our Fan Page on Facebook, please be sure to join so you can stay informed. ~The Salisbury Pride Committee

Location: E. Fisher St, Salisbury, NC (100 block in downtown Salisbury)

Setup: 7:00am – 11:00am

Festival: 11:00am – 5:00pm

Breakdown: 5:00pm – 7:00pm

“Festival events will include displays, music and entertainment, food, games for CHILDREN, and more. Vendors, shop owners, church, civic and non profit organizations interested in setting up booths at the event are encouraged to sign up.”

“Throughout the year, Salisbury-Rowan PFLAG does much in the community to foster good human relations, and we are committed to bringing forward awareness, appreciation and celebration of Salisbury’s gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender citizens. Salisbury Pride is an expression of that commitment.”

More News Coverage on Hope House

Here is more on the happenings in Waco, Texas.  ~ Flip

Dear Champion of the Lord and the Preborn,

The following links lead to the TV coverage of our press conference yesterday. Notice the great discrepancy between Planned Parenthood’s response and our actual demeanor and message. There is such a huge disconnect in their alternative universe of child-killing. John Pisciotta stated it best, “the extent of our hostility is children drawing messages on the sidewalk that Jesus loves you.”

There is an explanation for this kind of delusion. In the last six months, this Planned Parenthood was forced to close two satellite offices in surrounding areas of Waco. Their Executive Director, Felicia Goodman, who gave Planned Parenthood’s propaganda spin on this story is resigning. Plus, the Texas legislature is moving forward on cutting funds that have supported their child-killing grisly business. To add insult to injury, the church just set up shop right next door to their death camp. 

Every where they turn, the writing is on the wall. They are going down in Jesus’ name! The following are the links and full story from our local paper and TV news.

Waco Tribune Article

Anti-abortion group rents house next to Planned Parenthood

By Cindy V. Culp
Tribune-Herald staff writer, Friday, June 3rd

Local abortion opponents have rented a house next door to a Waco Planned Parenthood clinic in hopes that having a more permanent presence at the site will help steer women away from the reproductive health organization.

The strategy has been successful in other cities, said the Rev. Rusty Thomas, one of Waco’s most vocal anti-abortion activists and a leader with national group Operation Rescue.

Not only have babies been saved by a “ministry of proximity,” he said, but clinic workers also have changed their stance on the procedure and quit.

“We want folks to know God is not far off somewhere, unconcerned . . . This will be our beachhead of prayer,” Thomas said.

The lease of the property, located at 1925 Columbus Ave., was announced at a news conference Thursday. Thomas said a number of Christian groups are involved in the effort, which is being called Hope House.

The groups include his organization – Elijah Ministries – as well as Pro-Life Waco and several local churches, he said.

But the money to rent the property is primarily coming from a single donor, said John Pisciotta, co-director of Pro-Life Waco. He declined to disclose the person’s identity, saying the individual wants to remain anonymous.

Planned Parenthood of Central Texas CEO Felicia Goodman said the organization heard rumors for several months that anti-abortion groups might move in next door. But it didn’t get official confirmation until this week.

Intimidating patients

Goodman said she views the development as another attempt to intimidate Planned Parenthood and its patients. She said only 4 percent of Planned Parenthood’s business in Waco involves abortion.

Most clients use Planned Parenthood for services such as birth control, sexually transmitted disease testing and cancer screenings, she said.

“They’re going to stop at nothing to try to block access to lifesaving health care and intimidate our patients,” Goodman said. “. . . But we’re not going to change anything we do. We’re going to continue to provide health care to the men and women in our community.”

Pisciotta and Thomas said it has been a longtime goal to acquire property near the clinic. The current effort got started several months ago, when activists learned the family who lived in the home was moving.

The family wanted to sell the home, but when that didn’t materialize, it agreed to rent to the anti-abortion groups, Thomas said. He said organizers were up front with the homeowners about their plans for the house. The lease contract is for six months, he said.

“We’ll just have to see what happens after that,” Thomas said.

A key use of the property will be as a staging area for activists’ weekly abortion protests, Thomas said. Between 40 and 70 people typically show up. Some hold anti-abortion signs or implore women going into Planned Parenthood to change their minds. Others simply pray.

In the past, protestors have been limited to the sidewalk and public rights-of-way in front of the clinic. Renting the house will help with logistical concerns, Thomas said. For example, activists will have somewhere to park, use the restroom, get a drink of water or take refuge from the weather, he said.

Activists said they want the house to serve as a billboard of sorts. A number of signs with anti-abortion messages already adorn the front porch and a fence. Plus, there are pink and blue flags lining the sidewalk.

On Thursday, the groups also tied three balloons to the mailbox – one pink, one blue and one black.

“It really tells the choices the women have,” Pisciotta said of the decoration. “Maybe it’s a lifesaver, $3 worth of balloons there.”

In addition, Thomas said he has put out a “nationwide call” for missionaries who want to live at the house and do “pro-life” work. That would likely include everyday interaction with women who go to the Columbus Avenue clinic, as well as clients at Planned Parenthood’s other clinic here. Located on Ross Avenue, it does not provide abortions.

Operation Rescue

The idea of abortion opponents setting up shop near an abortion clinic dates back to 1995, when Operation Rescue opened an office next-door to a Dallas clinic, Thomas said. That clinic was run by Norma McCorvey, who is better known by the pseudonym “Jane Roe.” She was the plaintiff in the landmark abortion case Roe v. Wade.

The group’s presence there led to McCorvey and a number of other workers changing their mind about abortion, Thomas said. McCorvey is now an outspoken abortion opponent.

Locally, Planned Parenthood has had ideological opposition close by for about two and half years. Care Net Pregnancy Center of Central Texas opened an office a few doors down on Columbus Avenue in early 2009.

Care Net, which opposes abortion, uses the location to counsel clients facing a crisis pregnancy.

Officials have said the organization didn’t pick the location because it was near Planned Parenthood. But they like the proximity because it boosts Care Net’s visibility to women who may be considering abortion, they have said.

God Is Going Back to School – Bridgeport, Connecticut

The saints in Connecticut were “given em heaven” at the great gates of hell at Bassick High School this past Friday, June 3, 2011.  The opportunity to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ on the public sidewalks in front of local high schools is absolutely unfettered by school regulations, Christophobic teachers, and overzealous security police.  This incredible opportunity might soon be snuffed out by our President and the Department of Justice.  But, right now, we are free to do it!  So – let’s just do it! ~ Flip

by Marilyn Carroll

God is just so awesome to us, we had such favor with the students, we gave out over 1,000 pieces of Christian literature to hundreds of students (including Muslims). We gave out OSA/Elijah Ministry  tracts,  Mark Cahill booklets, Ray Comfort tracts, The Gospel of John, Love Matters Newspapers, booklets on STD’s and Abstinence. The kids were so receptive and polite, and most of them said “God bless you too!” after I blessed them.   

We had about 13 saints that came out to hold signs and pass out literature. (Carmen, Susan, Hector, Jennie, Tom, Nancy, Daniel, Brenda, Brodie, Vinny, Gloria, Danny and Marilyn) An administrator at the school told Danny that we “needed to go home!”. Danny told her “no, we needed to be there on the public sidewalk to give the students information they would not receive in school.”She continued on her cell phone to call the police and he was very polite when he came and told us there was a complaint of us “harassing the students”. He said he knows we follow the rules from Main Street (where the abortion mill is). He stayed there the rest of the time and saw we were not breaking the law.  

“And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them .” Ephesians 5:11    

A middle aged mother walking on the sidewalk asked Danny if she could talk to him. She was very upset. She said her daughter went and had an abortion without her knowing about it. Danny told her no parental consent is required in Connecticut. She said she could not believe her daughter could do that and killed her grandchild! She didn’t even know her daughter was sexually active. An effort was made earlier this week to bring out the abortion debate on the House floor with parental notification for minors seeking an abortion. TR’s efforts fell short and again unsuccessful. Many of us don’t like these bills because it is also saying the mom can kill the baby if her parents give permission. We are not for that because we do not want the baby killed period! I know some believe it will save some babies if the parents know. But that is incrementalism and God tells us in His word not to compromise, “Not one hoof!” in Exodus 10:26 TR is also going to try to add an amendment for “Personhood”  pray that he will get that done. Nothing is impossible with God. Personhood allows for no compromises.  

“The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Romans 6:23

Another man stopped his car and told Danny the picture of Malachi was “disgusting”. Danny told him we thinks its disgusting too, that is why we want it to stop. Two girls told Vinny after viewing his sign that they never saw what an aborted baby looks like but they promised they would never ever get an abortion and do that to their child.

On my side of the school a bus stopped and the bus driver and another lady wanted all the literature we were passing out. A car with a mom and dad stopped to talk to me too. They all thought is was wonderful that we were there. I could only give them two things because we ran out of everything.  They agreed we need to reach the youth before they go to the abortion mill. We hope to do another high school soon.

“There are unsung heroes that spend long hours every day or week trying to save little boys and girls from death. Their names may not appear in newspapers or on TV shows, but they are there offering help and love to moms and dads going into abortion mills across the world.  Over so many years I have had the privilege to meet hundreds of thousands of these saints. They are there in all kinds of weather, just to save a baby’s life. I THANK GOD FOR EVERYONE OF THEM” Pastor Ed Martin, Jacksonville, FL  

Dionte (right) is one of the saved babies from years ago at the mill on Middle Street. I believe he is now 14 years old and a fine young man. Carmen brought him shopping for some clothes for his birthday the other day and here he is at Carmen’s house with her dog Capone.  Praise the Lord for every life saved!  God has a plan for every life, He does not make mistakes, each life is so precious and valuable!

“I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing,: therefore choose life, that both you and your seed (children) may live.” Deuteronomy 30:19   

Please join us at Summit on 3787 Main St. this Saturday, Tuesday, Friday, Saturday 8 AM- 10 AM as we reach out to those who find themselves where they should not be! We will be there until the killing stops! If not us, then who? If not there, then where? If not now, then when? Others from our group will be at Planned Parenthood on 345 Whitney Ave New Haven from  8 AM  – 10 AM on Saturday too. Pray that lives and souls will be saved for the glory of God!

For the Least of These,

Tyranny Against Pro-lifers

We knew it was coming with the onset of the Obama administration.  Now we know it is here.  Jo Scott was just hammered by our federal government yesterday with a bogus and utterly absurd violation of the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) law.  FACE became law during the Clinton administration in 1994 and was meant to censor the Gospel of Christ from abortion mills.   This is an arrow fired by the devil himself to discourage any pro-life activity outside of abortion mills anywhere in the United States. It is a ubiquitous censorship of the Gospel of Christ and an abrogation of our First Amendment Right to speak and present mother’s a real choice at abortion mills.  Eric Holder and his ilk in the Department of Justice are feeling the pressure of the abortion industry to do something to stop these pro-life Christians from living out their faith in the streets of their cities.

It is the Gospel of Christ that the abortion industry fears.  It has the listening ear of Barack Obama and Eric Holder.  The abortion industry knows that if it can remove the Christian witness from the gates of hell in America, it can kill with impunity.  We must never let this happen.  Notice, I said “let.”  The Christian witness will be removed from the streets if we “let” the federal government terrify us.  It is Almighty God we fear and we must not remain silent at a time like this.

Action points will be forthcoming.  ~ Flip

Jo Scott is a sidewalk counselor at the mega-Planned Parenthood in Denver, Colorado. Her husband Ken also ministers there. They have been cited on bogus charges from time to time of Harassment, Trespass, and Assault. It costs Planned Parenthood nothing to make such accusations. Sooner or later something might stick!

PP’s newest strategy is to get pro-lifers on probation so they can control their lives. This happened to me in Michigan. I absconded (fled) 2 years probation. This also happened to Pastor Flip Benham. Pastor Benham received 2 years probation for “Stalking” in the course of a neighborhood picket of an abortionist. Pastor Benham’s sentencing is up on appeal.

Now Jo Scott is sentenced to 90 days in jail, 2 years probation, and $1,635.50 in fines on the bogus charge of poking someone in the chest!

Ken and Jo Scott this day were issued a federal lawsuit demanding sweeping injunctive relief  from them and “their associates.”  The Federal Government is petitioning on behalf of Planned Parenthood for a 25’ buffer zone away from Planned Parenthood’s property. The lawsuit is also seeking $35,000 in punitive damages from the Scotts!

This “SLAPP suit” (Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation) is meant to frighten anyone from taking a public stand against child sacrifice.

The corrupt draconian legal system in Denver along with this SLAPP suit is meant to make pro-lifers back off much more than 25 feet!

 

The Denver Post Story: Feds accuse couple of blocking access to women’s clinic

Posted: 06/02/2011 01:00:00 AM MDT, Updated: 06/02/2011 08:10:30 AM MDT
In what may be the first enforcement of its kind in Colorado, the U.S. Justice Department on Wednesday filed suit against a Front Range couple who officials say violated a federal law that guarantees access to women’s clinics.

If the government proves its case, abortion protesters Kenneth and JoAnn Scott could face total fines of up to $35,000. Federal civil-rights attorneys allege that on numerous occasions in 2009 and 2010, the Scotts physically blocked vehicles trying to enter a Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains clinic in Denver and that the couple told staff and patients God hates them.

The complaint also alleges JoAnn Scott poked a clinic visitor in the back and shoved him in the chest.

The complaint says the Scotts’ actions violate the federal Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act.

The Scotts could not be reached for comment Wednesday.
