NYC to Excommunicate Churches That Meet in Schools

This is an incredible story.  Brothers and sisters the battle is on, and men of good faith are being dragged off to jail because of their witness for King Jesus.  New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg is a fool, “The fool says in his heart, ‘There is no God…’”  Psalm 14:1, and is doing all in his power to silence the Gospel of Christ.  This must not stand!

Be courageous!  Be ready to do good!   ~ Flip

 

A remarkable story is unfolding in New York City. 

Churches that have been meeting in schools there will have to find new places of worship by Feb. 12, when a new law banning the churches from public school facilities goes into effect.  The new ban will affect about 150 churches.

So when Mayor Michael Bloomberg gave his State of the City Address on Thursday, more than 200 pastors and lay people gathered outside the Bronx school where he gave the speech to pray.  Police arrested 43 of the praying protesters.

WORLD’s Tiffany Owens is in New York and covered the prayer rally and the arrests.  To read her exclusive report, click here.

I hope you find this article both interesting and helpful.

Pastor Calls Pastors to Stand for Life

Pastor Bobby Wilkinson led us in our praise and worship during our National Event in Charlotte, North Carolina, in the summer of 2010.  Many of you know him.  He was also a pastor in our church (Kerygma) before he went on to be a pastor at Providence Church in Denver, North Carolina.  God has given him great insight into the call of the church to stand in the gap on behalf of her preborn brothers and sisters. ~ Flip

Three Kinds of People Who Hate Tim Tebow

You all remember Kristin McCora.  Her last name was Wilson when you knew her and she was helping us to bring the theology of heaven to become biography at the gates of hell in Charlotte.  She married Edwin McCora this past September.  She and Edwin were both banned for life from Central Church of God in Charlotte because they  had the gall to bring the horrible truth about abortion to the door of their own mega-church.  She has written a powerful article about why the lukewarm church hates Tim Tebow.  Enjoy!  ~ Flip

 

There are three types of people in this world who hate Tim Tebow.

1.)    Genuine Florida Gator haters, i.e. Florida State or Miami Hurricane fans

2.)    Genuine Denver Bronco loathers, i.e. Raiders, Chargers or Chief fans

3.)    People who cannot stand to see a Christian living out his faith, living wholesomely, morally, doing well and giving the glory to God. 

We typically call people within the number three group liberals; however, it is shocking, and yet not shocking at all, that many people who uncontrollably despise Tim Tebow label themselves as Christians.  Since the first two groups are completely legitimate reasons for hating in the world of football, I will focus on the third, and largest, group of Tim Tebow haters.

What is it about Tim Tebow that arouses such opinion?  Most people either love him or despise him.  There doesn’t seem to be any indifference in feeling, like there is with other professional athletes.  So, why all the fuss?  Why all the hate-mongering and mockery and nay-saying about this young man – his talent, his faith and his life?  Why does this man incite some to cheers and many, many others to jeers?  Why all the hate, instead of simple indifference?  The answer lies in one simple verse relating to Jesus’ words to the disciples – “And you will be hated by all for My name’s sake.”  Matthew 10:22  You see, the world first hated Jesus (John 15:18), a man completely blameless and without sin.  A man, sent by God himself, our Creator, to die for the world to save us all from our sins and to give us life abundantly and yet the world still hated Him.  The world despised a baby born poor in a lowly manger (Luke 2:7), a child who obeyed his parents (Luke 2:51), a man who healed the sick, forgave the sinners, drove out the demons, loved the unlovable, helped the helpless, brought harm to no one, and was still hated by this world.  A man who willingly gave over his life to be betrayed, slandered, spat on, hit, abandoned,  beaten and abused, mocked and ultimately killed so that those inflicting the pain, and all those after, might be saved and have eternal life, was still hated by the world. 

So, if they hated Him, they will of course hate His followers, His real followers.

Why Tim Tebow?  There are plenty of professional football players who identify as Christian, say prayers before the game and even throw up a finger towards the heavens after scoring a touchdown or make a great play, so why the smear campaign of Tebow?  Because he represents so much more!  He is a true witness, reaching millions, influencing and inspiring and spreading the gospel any chance he gets, whether through his eyes as a college player, his interviews as a professional, or simply his life song.  He speaks of Jesus constantly.  Jesus, the name that makes some rejoice and others tremble.  His love for the Lord is unwavering, and the world can’t stand that. 

He has stated he’s a virgin, so the world reacts by either painting him as a liar, or demeaning him to the likings of a prude, possible homosexual, or Ned Flanders.  Forget that it’s virtuous, respectable, and by all accounts commanded by the Lord.  The world complains about rising STD numbers in college aged America and rant and rave about teenage pregnancies and unwed single mothers, but then chastises the man who keeps himself void of these dangers and pure for his future wife.  And let’s be honest, it’s not like he’s not had the opportunity.  A man of his stature, talent, and I must say, incredible good looks, most certainly will not have a hard time finding a date, if he so chooses.  Even my husband has a man-crush on the guy, and my husband has impeccable taste.

Tim Tebow also “Tebows”, which outrages the world.  They’ll paint him as any type of selfish, self-serving, arrogant, insensitive, demonic villain possible to stop this from happening.  The world can’t stand to see God be glorified, which is exactly what “Tebowing” is.  Every time Tim drops to his knee, he is humbling himself to our Almighty God.  He is saying, “not me Lord, but you.”  Haters want to demonize this act stating he is asking God for touchdowns and wins and is therefore despicable.  Well, if he is asking the Lord for touchdowns and wins, he isn’t the first athlete and I’m sure won’t be the last.  Even non-believing athletes will send up a shout out to “god” under the right pressure and circumstance.  And what working American hasn’t prayed for a raise, a bonus, or a better job?  What about the countless prayers that goes up for new cars, better pensions, or finances to stop the foreclosure process?  And guess what?  All these prayers are fine for the Bible teaches us in countless verses that God is concerned with every area of our life.

But the presumption to assume he’s asking for a touchdown is ridiculous anyways.  Based on Tebow’s life example, he is most likely thanking God.  But regardless of what he is telling the Lord, it is an act of submission to God Almighty.

“Never stop praying.  Be thankful in all circumstances.” 1 Thessalonians 5:17-18 

I do believe football games fall under the realm of all.  For it is God that gave Tim his talent, and it is God that directed his steps (Proverbs 16:9) and Tebow should forever hit his knee to give the glory to God, who has the power to easily take it all away.

The haters in group number three come out with every spew and lie possible to stop Tim from praying.  The most ridiculous argument I’ve heard so far is that God is allowing other people to suffer to help Tim Tebow.  Absolutely absurd!!  By making such claims that God ignores other prayers and other situations diminish God’s power.  God is omnipotent.  He is everywhere.  He hears every prayer.  He doesn’t forsake anyone during the Bronco game and it’s just another pathetic tactic to try to bring shame to Tim’s worship.

In addition, Tebow lives his life helping others.  He spends much of his time off the field volunteering and helping others in their life.  He raises money for causes dear to his heart, and dear to the Lord’s.  He spends time at Uncle Dick’s Orphanage in the Philippines and supports them financially as well.  His foundation supports The W15H program which fulfills the dreams of children with life-threatening illnesses whose wish is to meet Tim Tebow.  The foundation has partnered with CURE on an International Children’s Hospital Construction Project.  CURE exists to provide both physical and spiritual healing.  Why would this trouble the world?  Because what do we do all day?  What do you do all day?  The average American watches more than 4 hours of television a day.  Put that on top of a typical 8 hour work day, that doesn’t leave much time for helping others.  The world hates others who do what they should be doing but aren’t.  We should all be helping others in one form or another, but most people are too involved with their own lives.  For more information on Tim’s foundation, visit http://www.timtebowfoundation.org/

Tim Tebow just seems to have it all together and for that the world hates him.  Jealousy invokes a bitter emotion of hate, and from all standpoints, he has many reasons to be envied, but the Lord commands “Do not covet” Exodus 20:17.

The pro-aborts really hate him for he represents something very dangerous to their agenda – Life.  His mother was pressured by her doctors to abort Tim because they stated he would possibly be a stillborn or have life threatening, debilitating issues, due to a severe placental abruption, yet she still chose life.  This fact alone creates more rage to them than the picture of the aborted baby Malachi, because he exposes their evil lies and he isn’t going away.  They hate him because he is life.  They prefer him dead, even calling on other pro-aborts to donate money to abortion clinics every time he makes a touchdown. See the hypocrisy of the lie “pro-choice”?  They do not celebrate his mom’s choice to give life.  They hate her and they hate him.  They try to shut his message up, causing uproar over his 30 second Super Bowl Commercial for Focus on the Family, and they want to use his talent and his successes to provide money to kill others, lest there be more Tim’s.

They hate him because he’s not backing down.  With countless criticism from every angle, Tim’s faith and message is unwavering.

The bottom line, however, is Tim is hated because he is a real Christian.  He doesn’t just list it as his religion on Facebook because it seems to be the one that fits.  He doesn’t just go to church on Easter and Christmas.  He doesn’t just claim to be a Christian on Sunday and go about worldly living during the week.  He talks the talk and walks the walk.  If the world hated a man who did no wrong and came to love and spread good news, then it makes perfect sense that they will hate the man trying to follow in His footsteps.  It stands to reason that the world would hate him.

So keep on hating groups 1 and 2, and world, we were told of your kind many years ago, but if you call yourself a Christian and Tim conjures a rage, discomfort, anger or fury inside of you, you need to examine yourself as to why.  You need to examine your true relationship with Jesus Christ, Lord and Savior, because it is not Tim that you have the issue, but the One he follows instead.

Why the World, the Flesh, and the Devil, Hate Tim Tebow

by Rev. Flip Benham

January 10, 2012

No matter who wins next week’s football game against the New England Patriots, we can be sure that Tim Tebow will drive a stake (the Gospel Truth) right into the heart of the world, the flesh, and the devil.  We know for certain that God will be glorified no matter who wins.  That victory will come right out of Tim’s mouth.  The world wants him to “shut-up.”  His own flesh demands that he temper his speech – it’s scary to speak like Tim.  The devil is doing everything to terrify and intimidate him: “You’re going to fail…you don’t have the skills…pray in your closet like the Word of God says.”  Yet Tim continues to wield God’s Word for all to hear.

Let’s face it, Tim has done more to spread the true gospel of Christ across this land and throughout the world than all of our mega-churches put together.  Do you know why?  Long before he was given this platform to proclaim Christ, he was faithful in the little things he was given to do, just as David was faithful in shepherding those few sheep his father had given him to care for.

“He chose David His servant and took him from the sheep pens; from tending the sheep He brought him to be shepherd of His people Jacob, of Israel His inheritance.  And David shepherded them with integrity of heart; with skillful hands he led them. Psalm 78:70-72.

If you are faithful in the little things, you will be an instrument God can use in the big things.  As a young boy, David killed a Philistine giant and champion Goliath.  This was the same giant that terrified King Saul and all of Israel and caused them to hide in caves rather than fight.  This little shepherd boy did the impossible and all of Israel was talking about him.  Though his way was rough and his companions few, this little shepherd boy eventually became a great king.  Tim Tebow didn’t just happen.  He was brought through God’s refining fire.

King David shepherded God’s people with integrity of heart, because he had first learned how to shepherd his father’s lambs in the field when no one was watching.  When the lion or the bear came and carried off one of his father’s lambs, David went after it, struck it, killed it, and rescued the lamb (1 Sam 17: 32-37).  Note: the lion and the bear were not coming after David, they just wanted lunch.  But David considered his life as nothing to rescue those who could not defend themselves.  This kind of mettle and steely character does not just happen.

The world hates guys like this and will do all it can to make them look like educationally deprived, Psalm singing, Jesus freaks, who lean on a myth named Jesus.  Like David before him, Tim Tebow is a young man with integrity of heart who has learned how to lay his life down (daily) that Christ might be glorified in him – win or lose.  For Tim, it is not about wins and losses, it is about“Let[ting] your light so shine before men that they might see your good works and give praise to your Father in Heaven.”  Matthew 5:16.

What?  Not concerned about wins and losses?  Yep, there is something greater in life than winning football games.  Incomprehensible!

Has any pastor let the light of the gospel of Christ shine through him any brighter than Tim Tebow has in these days?  Several pastors have told me that they believe in Tim’s message, but believe he has gone way off the chart in his “jesus, Jesus, JESUS” method of presenting the gospel.  He needs to tone it down and be more like Aaron Rodgers of the Green Bay Packers who is a Christian, but not so pushy and judgmental.

You know, it wasn’t until they told me that Aaron Rodgers was a Christian, that I found out that he was.  Why is that?  Because Aaron Rodgers has never mentioned the name of Jesus in my hearing, and I have seen alot of him on television.  Aaron has not used the incredible platform God has given him to glorify Christ and give Him praise.  Why not?  I suppose the world got a hold of him and told him to shut-up.  His own flesh screamed, “They’ll call you a Jesus freak!”  And the devil (that false giant) boasted, “You do it, you die!”

Yes, the world, the flesh, and the devil hate Tim Tebow and, surprisingly, so does the skinny jean, milquetoast, lukewarm church of today.  Why?  Because Tim Tebow has become a “living parable” and rebuke to all of us.  God is painting a very graphic picture of what a real Christian should be and do.  When words fail God speaks to us in parables so that we may see pictures of what He has in mind.  Tim Tebow is that “living parable.”

You know what?  Compared to Tim Tebow, I have been weighed in the scales and found wanting.

Tim Tebow’s parents have honored their marriage covenant before God.  So much for divorce and the idea that we no longer need the institution of marriage.

Tim Tebow’s mother was told to abort him or she would die.  She chose life so that Timmy might live.  He lived, thank God, and so did she.  So much for abortion.

Tim Tebow is a virgin.  Can you imagine the disdain of the NFL and the world?  So much for premarital sex, homosexual sex, or any sex outside of marriage.

Tim Tebow has a father.  Tim’s dad built biblical principles into the life of his son and disciplined him to be a man trained for the gospel battle.  So much for the idea that women don’t need fathers to raise children.

Tim Tebow has a family.  That means a mom and dad, two brothers and two sisters.  So much for the idea of one kid or no kids. So much for two dads, or two moms, or multiple moms.

Tim Tebow has a mission.  It is to bring glory to God.  This is the big thing.  So much for winning and losing football games.  These are little things.

Football games are, indeed, little things.  But, notice to the New England Patriots, Tim has trained himself that to be faithful in the little is to be faithful in much.  Watch out!

Direct Action v. Indirect Action

Here is an excellent article written by Jay Rogers to counter an argument written by “pro-abortion” journalist Lawrence Alba.  Miss Pat reminded me of the great victory won at Patricia Windle’s abortion mill in Brevard County, Florida.  It was the sight of many incredible Gospel battles for the lives of preborn children.  Today, Brevard County is abortion free.  How did that come about?  Jay has some great insight that will be an encouragement to all of us allowing the theology of heaven to become biography at the gates of hell.  ~ Flip

Victory in Waco, Texas

This report just in from Rusty Thomas.  Rusty has confirmed that the Planned Parenthood abortion mill on Columbus Avenue in Waco, Texas, has closed its doors for good.  The moving trucks have moved all of the awful instruments of destruction off of the premises.  This abortion mill has been the site of several Operation Rescue regional events and a continual Christian presence offered up by the saints in Waco.  It is a day of rejoicing!  The Thomas nation has been storming this manifestation of the gates of hell since 1994, and are now seeing the great working of Almighty God come to fruition.  Abortion is no more in Waco, Texas – All praise be to King Jesus!

How does this happen?  How is it that in 1991 there were well over 2,000 freestanding abortion mills in America, and today there are less than 700?  The heart and mind of our nation is changing over the issue of abortion (child-killing).  The Truth is exposing and overcoming this lie from the depths of hell.  The theology from heaven is becoming biography in the streets through the lives of simple little Christians who carry graphic signs of aborted children and stand in the gap (at the gates of Hell – the local abortion mill) in the powerful Name of Jesus. 

We are God’s answer to the abortion holocaust that is savaging our land.  Well done saints in Waco.  Though the city has often despised you, and the church has often told you that there is a better way to “Git er Done,” you “Got er done” in the strong Name of Jesus! ~ Flip

 

Dear Champion of the Lord and the Preborn,

He that is mighty has done a mighty thing. It is official! The local Planned Parenthood death camp in Waco, Texas has shut its doors. Last year they had four facilities spreading their lies and murder. Today, three are down and one to go. They have moved out of the facility that actually killed the babies and have downsized their operation to the Kate Ross Apt facility.

We do not know for sure if they will continue to slay the innocent at Kate Ross or just be a referral center. As soon as we discern their operations, we will make it known. For now, let us shout it from the rooftops, “Our God reigns. The gates of hell cannot prevail against the church of the living God!”

Little Christian Takes a Big Message to Mega Church!

Many of you know Sandy Sayre, a faithful sidewalk counselor in Dallas, Texas, and a great friend of Jesus and His preborn children.  She has been attending one of the largest mega-churches in the Dallas area (seats over 8,000).  It was once Larry Lee’s, Church on the Rock, but has since been bought by Lakepointe Baptist Church and is known simply as “Lakepointe.”  Sandy does her best to explain “bloodguilt” to Pastor Steve Stroope.  In so doing, she expresses incredible insight from the Word of God as to what God is saying to His church in America today.

Well worth the read.

……………………………………………………

Flip, Here is an exchange I have been having with Pastor Steve Stroope concerning blood guilt and The Church of Jesus Christ and her pastor’s responsibility before God. The first email I addressed to Steve, my Sunday school teacher who is on staff and most of the pastoral leaders. My reply to Steve’s email I sent only to Steve, waiting for his reply and praying God will crush him with The Truth of God’s Word. It is so exciting to deliver God’s mail and know He goes before me and behind.

At the end of my first message I attached a link to your teaching sermon on Birthright along with a link to the PDF file on To End All Abortion.

Sandy Sayre
The time is now to Press on in the Strong Name of Jesus

Pastor Steve,

Thank you for your timely reply.
 
The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob weeps to know His Church believes compassionate damage control is all He desires. What about the murdered babies and their innocent blood that cries up from the ground for justice, without God’s justice there can be no mercy. Micah 6:8.
 
It is The Church of Jesus Christ who has been given the power, by God, to end this abomination of legalized child killing. Our government continues to pass unjust laws which gives the appearance of justice, God will not be mocked. We as a people sooth our consciences by funding crisis pregnancy centers and allow the killing to continue, while believing we are doing our part. The lesser of two evils is still evil. Satan is well pleased with our lukewarm desire to not fight this battle to end abortion; it is a gospel issue not a political issue. God’s judgment begins in the house of the Lord, I Peter 4:17. We must repent of indifference and meet Jesus at the Gates of Hell.

Yes, crisis pregnancy centers play a part in compassionate ministry to those who seek services there. However, most women who desire abortions will not seek service in crisis pregnancy centers, so the killing of God’s image bearers continues, and the Church sings a little louder to drown out the cries coming from saturated ground, not to mention God’s Call.

While sidewalk counseling women at Dallas clinics I have offered a list of crisis pregnancy centers, of which Lakepointe Church is listed, mostly they decline. Through the years I have been asked how many babies were saved. My reply is always, “We don’t go to The Gates of Hell to save babies.” Always the one who asked is shocked to hear my answer. I reply, “We go to bring the Glory of the Lord.  He saves the babies, the moms and dads from a life time of terror, guilt, regret and a murder sentence.”  We go to warn those who are staggering toward death and tell them the truth, even if it offends. Lest they become a fugitive until death, should they spill innocent blood. We tell them of a different way, which leads to life and the one and only Jesus; who wants to receive them as His own, if they will repent and turn from their wicked choice. It is His blood which is the better way.  

How far The Church has come from knowing we are not just sick, but dead, and in need of resurrection through repentance. The Church does not understand “Blood Guilt” and who is the one most responsible for the shedding of innocent blood. God holds the Church of Jesus Christ responsible for not pleading the case of the fatherless to win it. He gives the Church of Jesus Christ the power, responsibility and the call to storm the Gates of Hell, the High Places of Satan’s alters of child sacrifice. Just as God calls His Church to go into all the world and preach the good news of the Gospel which sets men’s souls free for all of eternity; He holds pastors directly responsible for not leading their flocks out to the battle for the least of us, the pre-born.


Ish 1:15-16 When you spread out your hands in prayer,
   I hide my eyes from you; even when you offer many prayers,
   I am not listening. Your hands are full of blood! 16 Wash and make yourselves clean.    Take your evil deeds out of my sight;    stop doing wrong.

When did The Church of Jesus Christ start caring more about receiving the blessings of God while refusing to receive our birthright, obedience determines our destiny, as it has from Genesis to Revelation? Prayer is our blessed vehicle to receive His nourishment yet at some point we must leave our Garden of Gethsemane take up our crosses to secure the victory. John 19:3   I have heard it is said, “Everyone wants to follow Jesus until they find out where He is going and He is going to the Cross and He wants you and me to come and die there.” 

Some of what I have written is what was on my heart a year ago October when I requested a meeting with you. When you called me you said you were too busy for a meeting until after January, so we talked on the phone for a short while. But; the Lord has been continuing to prompt me to speak with you again. Rather than possibly receive the same delayed date for a meeting I thought to send an email.

I am praying for you and Marsha and that Jesus would visit you both more than ever during this rough spot in your road.
 
Caringly,
Sandy Sayre
Press on in the Strong Name of Jesus!

Thanks for your email.

Lakepointe has taught clearly about the fact that abortion is wrong for the past 32 years and will continue to do so. In addition we will continue to support the young ladies who are making the right decisions to not terminate their pregnancies by giving ongoing finances to the two crisis pregnancy centers we helped start in Rockwall and Mesquite as well as provide volunteers for those centers.

Subject: God saved me so I could serve Him, Birthright

Dear Pastorial leaders of Lakepointe,

Hello, my name is Sandy Sayre and I have been a member of Lakepoint, Rockwall, for several years. While attending church here with my family I also work with a group of volunteers of two other ministries. One ministry is local, Victories in Christ Juvenile Prison Minister AKA, Medlock Juvenile Prison Ministery http://www.youthredeemed.com/, of which there are several Lakepoint members who serve along side of me there for the last four years.
 
The other ministry is Operation Save America  https://operationsaveamerica.org/, a national ministry, I have served with for eleven years. This ministry serves all who are caught in the lie and deception that God will wink at the sin of abortion and that it is a personal right and choice to end a life which God has created.
 
The Call of God to this ministry is not only to take  His message of mercy and grace through repentance to the mother of the pre-born, the staff and doctors who enter into the sin of spilling innocent blood but, also, to the Church of Jesus Christ and her pastors who sell their Birthright, as Esau, did for a bowl of soup. 
 
Please, take the time to listen to my good friend and sold out man of God Rev. Flip Benham as he teaches a powerful lesson on Birthright. Please contact me with your feedback. I am interested to know if the leadership at Lakepointe would also be obedient to  answer the call to stand and lead God’s people of Lakepointe for righteousness and justice in this matter. God’s heart grieves for the innocent blood which continues to cry up from the ground, He will not be mocked by the indifferent lukewarm actions of His Church, since child killing was legalized in the year of our Lord Jesus 1973. Remember The Gates of Hell will not prevail against The Church of Jesus Christ!

Ken and Jo Scott Need our Prayers

Ken and Jo Scott have been faithful to lift up the gospel of Christ at the gates of hell in Denver for decades.  Hundreds of children have been saved from brutal deaths and mothers and fathers cared for as a result of their powerful ministry.  Now the Department of Justice would like to rid the earth of them.  The attorney general’s office has assigned five federal prosecutors to remove these “Domestic Terrorists” from the streets of Denver.  The Thomas More Society is coming along side Ken and Jo’s legal team to lift up the name of Christ in the court room and “…plead the cause of the fatherless to win it.”  Jeremiah 5:28.   ~Flip

Pro-lifer’s FACE violation questioned

Charlie Butts – OneNewsNow – 12/26/2011 3:35:00 AM

pro-lifer being handcuffedA Denver pro-lifer has gained the support of a legal group that believes he’s being targeted by the U.S. attorney general simply because of where he stands on the issue.

Kenneth Scott is being prosecuted based on the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act, which is designed to keep pro-lifers from blocking access to abortion clinics. But Peter Breen of the Thomas More Society tells OneNewsNow Scott is accused of obstruction, which appears to be an obscure interpretation of federal law.

“It appears to be based on the fact that when he waves someone to come over and talk to him and to pull over to take literature about offering alternatives to abortion, that the car that is stopped [so people can talk] to Ken might have obstructed some other car that would be waiting to get into the parking lot to have an abortion,” he explains.

Peter Breen 2But he points out that when the lead car leaves, the people in the vehicles supposedly behind it still have full access. So he suggests that if someone were selling flowers on a right of way, for example, not one eyebrow would be raised.

“These are rights that we have had and [that] have been held sacred in this country from time immemorial — and yet today, the attorney general wants to restrict those rights merely because this sort of interchange of information and ideas is occurring outside of an abortion clinic,” the attorney laments.
The U.S. attorney general’s office has assigned five federal prosecutors to handle the case against Scott, while the Thomas More Society enters the fray with the pro-lifer’s legal team.

Wonderful News From Connecticut

As in Bridgeport and New Haven, Connecticut, so in cities all over this country – we win when we show up.  It is the Christmas miracle – the Word of God become flesh.  Be encouraged saints, the battle is being won one child at a time, as we continue storming the gates of hell in the strong Name of Jesus.

Enjoy!

 

 

Operation Save America – CT
Then Jesus said to the disciples, “If anyone wants to be a follower of mine, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me!” Matthew 16:24
 
December 2011 – 101 babies killed at The Summit in Bridgeport by surgical abortion.
3 babies saved!
 
At Planned Parenthood, New Haven, a total of about 45 babies were killed on the Saturdays in December.
 
TOTALS FOR 2011- 102 babies saved and 9 salvations
 
“We are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” Ephesians 2:10
This  is Christina, one of the saved babies from years ago ( Bridgeport) that’s grown up to be a beautiful young lady (10 yrs old). Her mom, Alma, brought her to come see us at the mill.
 
This is Taraji, another saved baby (New Haven) and her two sisters. Their mom, Sharelle is doing well in school for medical assistant.

St. Raphael’s Hospital in New Haven has announced plans to merge with Yale New Haven Hospital, stating that their pro-life directives would be followed on the St Raphael’s Hospital campus. Connecticut Right to Life and other Christian groups are concerned that the directives might not be adhered to concerning abortion, birth control, sterilizations and end-of-life issues. 
 
Len Suzio, a newly elected state senator from Meriden, was recently asked to address a commission honoring a winner of an essay on feminism. In his speech he told them he was married to the same woman for 40 years, they have four daughters together and they have opened their home to needy pregnant women for years.

Len also has made an attempt to defund Planned Parenthood which receives several millions in CT state funds.

Please join us every Tuesday, Friday and Saturday at 3787 Main St Bridgeport from 8 AM- 10 AM as we reach out to those who find themselves where they should not be. (Also Planned Parenthood, 345 Whitney Ave. New Haven on Saturdays from 8 AM- 10 AM.)  If not us, then who? If not here, then where? If not now, then when? We are the Body of Christ, we are God’s mouthpiece on the earth, we are His hands, His feet. He commands us to rescue the innocent from slaughter (Proverbs 24:10-12) and to help the lost and the needy. Just show up and see what God will do!
 
Have a blessed New Year in 2012!
For the Least of These,
