Saints In Bridgeport, 39th Memorial of Roe v. Wade

Several hundred folks gathered in front of Bridgeport, Connecticut’s last remaining abortion mill to remember and repent of the 39 years of decriminalized child killing in America.  This past Saturday, January 28, 2012, the theology of the church house became biography in the streets of Bridgeport, as the saints reconsecrated themselves to the task of speaking for those who cannot speak for themselves.  Soon, very soon, abortion will come to and end in Bridgeport, Connecticut.  The gates of hell cannot prevail against God’s prevailing Church.  It doesn’t matter who is President – our God reigns!

Ken Scott Victorious in Fed’s Attempt to Remove Gospel of Christ

Ken Scott, with the help of Almighty God and some tremendous lawyering, won the day in a federal court hearing in Denver, Colorado, this past Friday, January 27, 2012,  as District Judge Philip Brimmer rejected an attempt by the federal government to grant Planned Parenthood preliminary injunctive relief from Ken Scott.  This Preliminary Injunctive Hearing was meant to keep Ken outside a 25’ imaginary bubble from the entrance of the Planned Parenthood of the Rock Mountains abortion mill.

God showed up and showed off at this blatantly unconstitutional attempt by our own federal government to remove the gospel of Christ from the gates of hell – local abortion mills across this country.

Judge Declares Ken Scott a “Sensible Man”

Ken and Jo Scott

Thursday January 26th, U.S. District Judge Philip Brimmer denied the Justice Department’s allegation that Kenneth Scott’s sidewalk counseling efforts at Planned Parenthood in Denver make it “unreasonably difficult” for patients and employees to get to the clinic.  If the Justice Department had proven that Mr. Scott was guilty of their charges, he would have been saddled with a preliminary injunction that would keep him 25 feet from the driveway.  Instead, Judge Brimmer, stated that Mr. Scott is a “sensible man” as he ruled against the preliminary injunction in the U.S. vs. Kenneth Scott FACE civil lawsuit.

Mike Wagner, head security guard for Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains appears in a video that the government produced as evidence against Scott.  The video shows Kenneth handing a client an information packet and Wagner driving up behind the vehicle stopped in the driveway.  Mr. Wagner testified that he felt “frightened and concerned” while he waited ten seconds to get into the driveway.  No police report was filed.  Wagner carries a gun, he has extensive military training and he’s a former police officer.  He is now the head of security for the entire Rocky Mountain region Planned Parenthoods.  Unless Mr. Wagner is deathly afraid of paper cuts, it makes one wonder why an abortion client receiving an information packet would cause him to panic.  Even Judge Brimmer, while explaining his ruling expressed his doubt in the former police officer’s credibility.  For these reasons, Mike Wagner is the reluctant recipient of “Best Hostile Witness of Day” award. 

When questioned by Scott’s lawyer, Mike Wagner said he wasn’t aware of any fender-benders caused by Scott.  Ironically, there was quite a wipe out two years ago during a snow storm as Mr. Wagner raced around the corner at Planned Parenthood and plowed into two cars.  Both of the cars belonged to pro-lifers who were praying across the street from the abortion facility. 

Ken Scott’s witnesses were exemplary.  Binette Bah, in particular, captured the attention of the court when she and her four year old daughter entered the room to testify.  Adorable little Binette was heading to the witness stand with her mom and had to be directed to sit in the gallery. The entire courtroom watched as she stood in her seat to see mommy. 

On the witness stand Binette was asked how she knew Ken Scott.  “I met Ken Scott at Planned Parenthood the day I went for an abortion.”  Before Binette finished her testimony she instructed the people in the courtroom to look at her daughter and said, “If it weren’t for Ken Scott my daughter would not be here today.”  When Binette left the witness stand little Binette ran to her mom and hugged her.  It was a sweet sight to behold.

The process of preparing for the injunction hearing and the subsequent $10,000 Federal FACE law suit coming later this year has been grueling for both Kenneth and his attorneys.  The Federal Government has a battery of lawyers working to protect the abortion industry in Colorado from the truth.  If not for the diligent, self-sacrificing work of Rebecca Messall, along with Peter Breen and Tom Brejcha of the Thomas More Society out of Chicago, the outcome would have been very different. 

The left slanted media in Colorado invariably portrays the pro-life movement in the worst possible light. But that is not always the case.

For the past decade, KPOF, a local Denver Christian radio station, has consistently invited Ken and Jo Scott to their program.  Today, Roy Henchke and Denise Washington Blomberg told Ken that since they have been broadcasting the events at the abortion mill their listeners view the pro-life ministry differently than they did in the past.  The audience has invested their prayers in the ministry and they are genuinely concerned about the welfare of the sidewalk counselors.  No longer does the Christian community view the pro-lifers at the abortion mills as judgmental, aggressive or hateful.  KPOF is changing the world for Jesus and helping to save the lives of innocent baby boys and girls while providing an important outlet for the truth to be shared. 

The U.S. Justice Department under Barack Obama is targeting free speech outside of abortion mills in at least seven states.  In doing so they are jeopardizing the lives of thousands of children and their moms. Do not be deceived, free speech everywhere is at risk when the government decides who is allowed to speak and where that government approved speech takes place.  Please pray for our leaders, especially President Barack Obama and the head of the Justice Department, Eric Holder, to come to know our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Rusty’s Report for 39th Roe Memorial Weekend

There is no doubt in my mind that this was one of the most impacting weekends ever in the city of Charlotte as it concerns the gospel of Christ advancing against the gates of hell (local abortion mills) in our city.  A great big shout out to Rusty Thomas, Alex Kendrick, David and Jason Benham, Cities4Life, and all the local pro-life ministries that made this gospel proclamation possible.  The theology of heaven, indeed, descended upon the city of Charlotte and became biography in her streets. ~ Flip

“When the cry of repentance from the Church of Jesus Christ is greater than the cry of innocent blood filling God’s ears, then, and only then, will He be free to hear our prayer, forgive our sin, and heal our land.”  Brother Butch Berget    

 

Roe vs. Wade Memorial Weekend 2012

We experienced a whirlwind event in Charlotte, NC this past weekend. Rev. Flip Benham’s sons, David and Jason, put together a Roe vs. Wade Memorial weekend headed up by Alex Kendrick. Alex and his brother Stephen lead Sherwood Pictures who produced Flywheel, Facing the Giants, Fireproof, and the recent release Courageous. I believe a powerful seed was sown in Charlotte, NC and something of great spiritual significance was birthed that will have a ripple effect throughout our country.

On Friday morning, January 20th, a group of Christians, media and business leaders met for a breakfast sponsored by the Benham Real Estate Group. David Benham and Alex addressed the meeting. There was a powerful challenge issued. Alex related God’s dealings in his life that birthed a dream in his heart to make motion pictures that would pierce the darkness of Hollywood.

He is sold out for the cause of Christ. He is the real deal. He publicly declared that if he did anything to shame the Lord in his position that he wanted the Lord to take him out. The essence of his message could be summed up in the admonishment of the Apostle Paul. 1 Corinthians 9:27 states, “But I discipline my body and keep it under control, lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified.”

Roe vs. Wade Memorial Service and States of Refuge Press Conference

 

 

 

Rev. Flip Benham Praying for our Gathering

Friday at noon the saints gathered in downtown Charlotte to participate in the Roe vs. Wade Memorial service and to kick off the new national States of Refuge campaign. Rev. Flip Benham, Alex Kendrick, David Benham, Jeanette Wilson, Ante Pavkovic and I had the privilege to address downtown Charlotte with God’s word.

Brother Flip encouraged the saints with a message that we are winning the battle against the culture of death. He stated:

We believe that now, with the numbers of abortions down by almost 40 percent, the number of abortion mills has dropped almost 65 percent, and the number of doctors doing abortions has also dropped close to 40 percent, we are winning this battle. The time is now for the Church to rise up and wait not for political parties, or the president, or Congress, or the Supreme Court to take care of the issue. It is our responsibility. The gates of hell will not prevail against the Church of Jesus Christ.

Alex Kendrick stated that he was deeply disturbed by the evil of abortion, “It grieves my heart and the heart of God.” He further declared, “Whoever wants the next generation the most will get them!” Does the Church want to save this generation more than the world seeks to murder them? Truly, when the cry of the repentance of the Church is greater than the cry of innocent blood, God will end the American holocaust.

Brother David Benham admonished the saints to take the Gospel of the Kingdom to the gates of hell. He quoted Proverbs 1:20-22:

Wisdom cries without; she utters her voice in the streets: She cries in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she utters her words, saying, How long, you simple ones, will you love simplicity? And the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge?

Jeanette Wilson shared powerful testimonies of lives spared and souls saved at the three abortion mills in Charlotte. Brother Ante shared how God opened his eyes to see how God was using Operation Save America to expose the hidden powers of darkness in our nation. Satan is overt in other nations, but he is stealth in America. Satan keeps his cool in the Church of America and convinces most in our society that he doesn’t exist, but when the saints confront abortion, homosexuality, and Islam, demons manifest. For him, this was the clearest sign that Operation Save America was exercising true biblical Christianity and he had to join the fray.

 

States of Refuge Interview at Roe vs. Wade Memorial Service
 

 

States of Refuge Press Statement

“Come now, and let us reason together, said the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool” (Isaiah 1:18).

Operation Save America is embarking on a new national vision we are calling States of Refuge, Operation: first Abortion Free States. It is based upon a concept discovered in the Old Testament. The Biblical model we are seeking to apply in America today is the Cities of Refuge. As you may recall, there were six Levitical cities set apart in Israel for refuge in the cases of questionable deaths. These cities were established by God to provide asylum till proof of innocence or guilt against the accused could be established. These cities were also designed to protect Israel from blood guiltiness, lest the avenger of blood pursue and kill innocent people. States of Refuge seeks this same protection in our time.

Through much prayer and research, we have determined that there are five states in America with one death camp, (abortion mill), remaining defiling our beloved land. This represents the abortion industry and the culture of death it has spawned at their weakest and most vulnerable points. It also represents for the Church of Jesus Christ our greatest opportunity for victory in these tumultuous times!

Operation Save America is devoting this next year to apply our prayers, labor and resources in these five states, which are Arkansas, Mississippi, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wyoming. It is our blessed hope that God will honor the faith and efforts of His people and will be pleased to liberate America from blood guilt, starting with these five states.

It is our sincere prayer that when people hear of this vision, it will resonate in their souls. We pray they will add a hearty amen and desire to participate in this glorious opportunity to defeat this grave evil in our day.

We are calling upon the Church to join this effort. God’s word states, “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” May the States of Refuge carry this mandate and may God be pleased to heal our wounded land in Jesus’ mighty name!

 

Cities4Life Banquet

 

 

Alex Kendrick was the key note speaker at the second Cities4Life banquet. Cities4Life is a vision whose time has come. It seeks to network different aspects of the church, community, medical, and pro-life ministries to create a culture of life that dispossess the culture of death. It seeks to marry the prophetic, front line ministry presenting the gospel of the kingdom at the gates of hell with supportive, mercy ministries.

About 750 folks came out to be challenged with this powerful mission. Church, pro-life, business, and cultural leaders were all in attendance. I believe their lives and the city of Charlotte will never be the same again. I highly recommend their website, http://cities4life.org and their Christian/pro-life model for cities to emulate throughout our nation.

 

Taking it to the Streets

 

 

Shantelle and Jose chose life for their baby after seeing the sonogram of their baby in the incredible sonogram RV.

At the end of the Cities4Life banquet, a call was issued to go to the Latrobe abortion mill. 139 people answered the call and showed up the next morning in the freezing rain. The death camp did not know what hit them. The Kingdom of God was forcefully advanced against the culture of death. A mobile sonogram unit, tents, signs, banners, sound system and most importantly, the love and truth of Christ was made manifest to destroy the works of the devil.

For many, it was the first time they came to an abortion mill to minister the gospel of Jesus Christ. I suspect it will not be their last. God opened eyes and broke hearts as the gospel went forth and spared children from death and saved souls from sin. There were about four children saved and one young man surrendered his life to the Lordship of Jesus Christ. It was glorious!

 

Special Prayer Request

 

 

 

Alex Kendrick and I in downtown Charlotte, NC kicking off States of Refuge Campaign at the Roe vs. Wade Memorial Service.

I will conclude this report with a special prayer request. Please pray for Alex and Stephen Kendrick. For Alex, it was his first time going to an abortion mill as well. His heart was plowed. He strikes me as a man that will obey the Lord, no matter the cost. If God reveals His will, I believe Alex will do his best to follow. Perhaps, God will call him to utilize his considerable talent and treasure to “Face the Giants” destroying our nation in Jesus’ name!

Collusion Between DOJ and Abortion Industry

A Judge in Florida has finally ruled on the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Law (FACE) and the illegal collusion between the Justice Department (DOJ) and the abortion industry.  This ruling will be a great help to all of us who are faithfully bringing the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the gates of hell (local abortion mills) in the streets of our own cities.  This should be great news to Ken and Jo Scott who are being charged with the very same thing in Denver.

Read it here!

Thank you Jesus! ~ Flip

Courageous at the Abortion Mills in Charlotte

Here is a short video clip (1 minute and 18 seconds) of the amazing things that took place in the City of Charlotte as the theology of heaven became biography in the streets during the 39th Memorial of Roe v. Wade.  Alex Kendrick, star and director of the blockbuster hits Flywheel, Facing the Giants, Fireproof, and Courageous, led us into the battle using the brand new “Citise4Life” stratagem.  We are now, “…pleading the case of the fatherless to win it.”  Jeremiah 5:28.  ~ Flip

Memorial and Consecration – 39 Years of Roe v. Wade

Mike Warren, in a few simple words, reminds us all of what we are to be about this 39th Memorial of Roe v. Wade, as we consecrate ourselves again to the King of Kings and Lord of Lords – JESUS!    ~ Flip

 

Dear Friends,

Here are some considerations as we approach the 39th Anniversary of the Roe Vs. Wade decision and the murder of 60 million unborn children.

 Rev. Mike Warren

Rescue Rochester

Memorial & Consecration

Each year at this time, memorials are held around our nation focusing on the United States Supreme Court Roe vs. Wade decision, and the fallout that has occurred from that horrendous act. Since 1973 and the overturning of every abortion law in these United States, nearly 60 million babies have been murdered, millions of women and men wounded, and the medical profession tainted. The blood that has been spilled has a voice and though we may be deaf to its cry; it echoes loudly in heaven and heaven listens. Our nation has tasted some of the unintended consequences of turning its back on the law of God; unfortunately, there is much more on the way. American responses to this tragedy have come and gone and some continue.

But as we prepare for another Roe memorial, let’s take a look in the mirror. The mirror of God’s word and remember who we, ministers and lay people alike, are supposed to be. We need to dust off the historical accounts of victories won when the saints influenced and changed the culture rather than reflected it. The victories of slavery overturned in the West, temple prostitution banned in India, the rise of the status and protection of women, the rise of hospitals and the care of the needy and the sick, the demise of tyranny, all these and more find their nexus in the gospel of Jesus Christ. These were not just legislative victories but victories that reflected change in the heart condition of the citizens.

These changes were brought on by the power of the gospel released by passionate and pointed preaching that addressed the bondages and vices of the age and by a response of repentance and action by the Christian that heard.

Consecration is defined as “the act or ceremony of separating from a common to a sacred use, or the devoting and dedicating a person or thing to the service of God,” (Webster’s 1828 Dictionary) This January 22 we need to incorporate consecration gatherings rather than just memorials as we reflect on the fallout of the Roe vs. Wade decision. 60 million babies murdered calls for nothing less than desperate yielding to the Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Let’s newly consecrate ourselves, not to a cause, but to Him who saved us and washed us from our sins, separating ourselves anew unto Jesus. When that occurs our faith will be evidenced with actions and victory will not be afar off.
