"Small Victories" Reporting from the Streets of Granite City

2nd Quarter reports
from April - June 2003

June 23 -28, 2003  

144 babies killed. 8 babies saved. 692 babies saved since January 2000!

Tuesday- seventeen little babies were killed during the midnight abortions. Two moms including a young lady named "Nicki", came out of this extermination camp with their unborn children… still ALIVE!

Wednesday- six saints stood at the gates of hell for twenty-six children who were being murdered. It was deemed "Lexus day" at the clinic because of the many Lexus cars there, along with brand-new Jaguars and a shiny Mercedes; these moms and dads could afford these expensive cars, but not their babies. In the end it is the same- " nice car… dead baby…!"

Friday- an assembly line of out-of-state mothers boared their way into the feticide factory after signing the death warrants and relinquishing their ""full-of-fetus" state. They gave up all the benefits that fetal "hood" would bring into their lives. Saints pleaded for these lost mothers & fathers to spare their unborn babies lives. Women deserve better ..we can do better than ..ABORTION. Women deserve better housing, and jobs, and encouragement… Is that all the "Hope" clinic can offer them is … DEATH ? God have mercy on us!

Saturday- Courageous proclaimers arrived on the scene only to witness fourty-two babies dying a merciless death. Cars as far away as Florida and Iowa were present. The turnout was dismal. But PTL! God touched the hearts of three mothers and three babies were spared. We were able to show one mother a picture of her twenty-week-old baby. One Godly man was willing to lay his life down for these babies and was quickly arrested. Not for kneeling outside the mill and praying but for what another proclaimer said to the death camp guard. "Nathaniel, they’re killing babies in there and you’re apart of that. Please come talk to us!" Christians don’t have freedom of speech or 1st amendment rights, as they were told at the gay pride fest the following day.

Sunday- Gay Pride Days and the blatant homosexual agenda are not our problem. They are a sign and judgement from God. "The look on their faces testifies against them; they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it…" Isaiah 3:9 The Supreme Court struck down the sodomite laws and the celebration at the Sodom fest was in full swing. T-shirts screamed, "I’ve been obeying the law all weekend long." Over 10,000 sodomites were obeying the law of the land. Saints met outside Tower Grove Park in St. Louis, MO and we stood at strategic spots. Angela stepped out into the parade route and took a picture of the mayor of St. Louis, Francis Slay. Mayor Slay was personally rebuked. "Mayor Slay, I’m praying for you." "Thank you I need prayers," he responded. Angela said "Your representation in this Sodom fest is an abomination to God and you are an abomination to the Catholic Church." Phillipians 4:9 "Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me- put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you." Homosexual physicians chanted, "2..4..6..8.. don’t assume your Dr. is straight..we’re here we’re queer....have you had your pap smear?".. Then a group dressed in Supreme Court justices’ robes carrying a bed with two gay men under the covers- holding signs and yelling, "We’ve been obeying the law all weekend long..!" "God protect me from your followers" was a button that Planned Parenthood was handing out. Saints dialogued with the Planned Parenthood and the Hope clinic deathscorts at their booth. Saints rebuked the MCC booth, pastors and pastorettes and asked "how do you receive salvation?" Soon the persecuted Christians were forced out of the public display of perverseness and pride at the Sodom-fest in Tower Grove Park by the jack-booted thugs in their security shirts. We prayed outside these gates. We prayed for those lost souls inside those gates and hoped that good seed was planted and hearts were touched. God opened a door, and his saints were able to dialog, witness, pass out tracts and interview and even strongly rebuke leaders of this Sodom celebration. Thank you… Jesus!

June 16 -21, 2003  

149 babies killed. 9 babies saved. 684 babies saved since January 2000!

Thursday- The Final Solution was being played out in Granite City. The mantra of the day was, "Those signs are sick!" The people acting out those signs are fine… Yes, you’re right, they are sick, and they make me sick. "What is good is evil and what is evil is good…" twenty-nine children lost their lives. Two older women wheeled a young girl in a wheel chair into the abortion mill to kill her innocent baby.

Friday- Thirty-two boys and girls were murdered in Granite City, IL. Jamie came all the way from Kentucky, but after talking to the saints that were standing in the gap she decided to keep her twin babies. Brook and Sunny from Missouri took literature and told Shirley they were not going to kill their babies. Erin of Missouri came back out from the abortion mill and told Daniel, "I can’t do it," and took literature and a Bible. PTL! A total of five babies left this abortion mill alive!

Saturday- the insanity of choice. Picture in one frame a 24 week old, live, wanted baby in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Picture right next to that a 24- week-old unwanted, dead baby inside a late-term abortion "clinic".

It took four squad cars and one K-9 unit to protect one premature baby that was born too soon at the first-aid station right across from the two million dollar, state-of-the-art extermination camp, located in the Valley of Slaughter, a.k.a. Granite City, IL. Over 34 mothers took their babies into the abortuary as five police officers stood 200 feet away keeping vigil. Only one jack booted thug had the hitspa to come over and harass the pro-lifers holding signs and crying out for the thirty-four children that were being dismembered and dying a painful death. The dedicated S.S officer threatened the Jeremiahs of our day, "you better not let those signs touch that grass!" The chief Gestapo agent Herr Rubenhausenhoffer had his fingerprints all over this notorious crime scene. Thank you Jesus for men of God who boldly stood on the Word of the Lord and rebuked this coward Ted said, "They’re killing babies in there and you’re worried about signs touching grass! God have mercy on you." Another proclaimer pointed out all the illegally parked cars in clear violation of city ordinance. This officer said, "We let them stay there for 15 minutes. 2 hours later, they were still there. Now if that would’ve been a pro-lifer’s car, they would’ve been ticketed and towed.

But God is good! A young girl and her mom from Belleville told Daniel that she decided not to get an abortion. Another young lady accompanied by her mother took Angela up on her offer of a free ultrasound and medical help and to follow up with Dr. Mark on Monday morning.

Psalm 23

The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. The pastors are the shepherds and we are the sheep. The pastors need to be leading the sheep but instead the shepherds are busy getting fat and are leading their sheep astray. He makes me lie down in green pastures.. Sheep will not lie down unless there are 4 requirements: free of fear, free of friction (no strife among one another), free of tormentor, and they need to have food. Pastors need to be feeding their sheep with the Word of God. You need to be fed or you will die. It takes discipline to come and get fed at a live church. Pastors need to free their sheep of torment and fear. You need to be leaving your church pumped up and encouraged. If you’re leaving it depressed and condemned then Run! from that church. He leads me beside quiet waters, The water of the world is polluted and the spiritual water is polluted. If you drink enough you’ll die. The more water of the world you drink, the more you want. Drink from the river of Life!.. He restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. Sheep will get so stupid. They keep walking in circles when the shepherd isn’t leading them and eventually the form ruts and get stuck in them. They’re stuck there and will starve and thirst because the shepherd isn’t there helping them out. If we follow God he will not leave us walking in circles. We must rotate the pastures not the pastors. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil for You are with me;. We need to go through the valley to get through to the mountain. God will sustain you. We take God’s mercy and grace on the mountain top for granted. Your rod and your staff, they comfort me. God’s staff protects us and he will also give us some correction. Sheep need to be groomed. God needs to gently shear us of our burdens. Sometimes we get matted with sin and unrighteousness and God needs to shear us and once he does our burden is removed and we’re happy! Restoration! Many of the frontline warriors can relate to Ps.69 Discouragement and desention are the tools of the Devil,and just around ever corner in this battle. When we stand at these gates,it feels good to be surrounded with our spiritual family and in numbers,but lately those numbers have dwindled, but God is our comforter and provider. He will use a Gideon's army to bring revival, so that He gets the glory!

Psalm 69

Save me, O God, for the waters have come up to my neck. Ever feel like your drowning?

I sink in the miry depths, where there is no foothold. I have come into the deep waters; the floods engulf me. I am worn out calling for help; my throat is parched. My eyes fail, looking for my God. Those who hate me without reason outnumber the hairs of my head; many are my enemies without cause, those who seek to destroy me. I am forced to destroy what I did not steal.

You know my folly, O God; my guilt is not hidden from You. May those who hope in You not be disgraced because of me, O Lord, The Lord Almighty; may those who seek You not be put to shame because of me, O God of Israel. For I endure scorn for Your sake, and shame covers my face. I am a stranger to my brothers, an alien to My own mother’s sons; for zeal for Your house consumes Me, and the insults of those who insult You fall on Me. Sound familiar?

When I weep and fast, I must endure scorn; when I put on sackcloth, people make sport of me. Those who sit at the gate mock me, and I am the song of drunkards. But I pray to You, O Lord, in the time of Your favor, in Your great love, O God, answer me with Your sure salvation. Rescue me from the mire, do not let me sink, deliver me from those hate me, from the deep waters.

Do not let the floodwaters engulf Me or the depths swallow Me up or the pit close its mouth over Me. Answer Me O Lord, out of the goodness of Your love; in your great mercy turn to Me. Do not hide Your face from Your servant, answer Me quickly, for I am in trouble. Come near and rescue me; redeem me because of my foes. You Lord know how I am scorned, disgraced and shamed; all My enemies are before You. Scorn has broken My heart and has left Me helpless; I looked for sympathy but there was none, for comforters but I found none. They put gall in My food and gave Me vinegar for My thirst. May the table set before them become a snare, may it become retribution and a trap. May their eyes be darkened so they cannot see, and their backs be bent forever. Pour out Your wrath on them; let Your fierce anger overtake them. May their place be deserted, let there be no one to dwell in their tents. For they persecute those You wound and talk about the pain of those You hurt. Charge them with crime upon crime; do not let them share in Your salvation.

May they be blotted out of the book of life and not be listed with the righteous.

I am in pain and distress; may Your salvation, O God, protect me. I will praise God’s name in song and glorify Him with thanksgiving. This will please the Lord more than an ox, more than a bull with its horns and hoofs. The poor will see and be glad- you who seek God, may your hearts live! The Lord hears the needy and does not despise His captive people.

Let heaven and earth praise Him, the seas and all that move in them, for God will save Zion and rebuild the cities of Judah. Then people will settle there and posses it; the children of His servants will inherit it. And those who love His name will dwell there.

1 Samuel 14:6 "Nothing can hinder the Lord from saving, whether by many or by few."

106 babies killed. 6 babies saved. 675 babies saved since January 2000!

Tuesday- Midnight abortions. Two babies were saved from death as saints witnessed twenty-three babies mercilessly killed. Unfortunately, a Collinsville IL. crack-addict waited till she was 23 weeks pregnant to have her baby dismembered. They spoke with their priest before killing their child.

Wednesday- Black Genocide Day. Thirty-one babies were murdered because of "convenience"… and because there is a law that says it’s okay to kill their children ... but, there’s also a law that says its okay to give birth. One baby left this abortuary alive.

Thursday- Couples came from as far as Maryland and Indiana to have their babies slaughtered. Small Victories spent the day helping Latoya, a woman who decided not to kill her six month old unborn child. Hazel took her to the Dr.’s and provided her with some groceries.

Friday- Out-of-state shock and awe. At least eighteen babies crossed the river from the Show-Me state and died a senseless, horrific death. But by God’s grace and mercy, one baby left the abortion mill alive. Saints came from as far away as 2 ½ hours to make up the hedge that stands in the gap for the fatherless.

Saturday- Closed! PTL! Warriors joined forces and held the banner at the gates outside Planned "Barrenhood" in St. Louis. Mo. another killing facility just across the river, while women were feeling good as they "raced for the cure" babies were dying. What a disservice to women, not to disclose the truth about the link between elective abortion and breast cancer according to research specialist Dr. Joel Brind. Saints linked arms as they raised the standard together at these iron gates, as the "jack-booted thugs" marched these babies to their grisily deaths as they did at Dachau. Hence: Genocide- everyone gets a choice except the victim.

      Abortion and homosexuality come from the same root. "All those who hate me love death." Anti-family ... anti child. And here in America the church is trying to build bridges… right into the enemies’ camp, and loving them straight into HELL! Instead of the church "storming these gates", the American church is embracing them. You see, un-christ like Christians hate conflict more than they hate evil … but Christ said, "do not suppose that I have come to bring peace"..Matthew10:3-4

      This is what inevitably happens when one attempts to "build bridges" into the enemy’s camp. The purity of the Gospel message becomes muddied. Rather than allowing God’s Word to stand on its own in the condemnation of sin, we attempt to soften the message to make it more palatable to those it is supposed to convict. In an effort to be nicer than Jesus, we strip the Word of God of its convicting power to turn men from sin, and we allow them to wallow in it, "loving" them all the way to eternal damnation. We call this love, but God calls it hate! Leviticus 19:17; Proverbs 27:5-6

      "For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?" 1 Cor. 6:14 There is no common ground" between light and darkness, and we should not be building bridges to find "common ground" with sin. There is no ‘gay’ gene or no ‘gay’ center of the brain. The truth of the matter is in most cases homosexuality (or same sex attractions) sadly has everything to do with one’s childhood. Homosexuality is an outward expression of an inward conflict- A conflict with a root cause or causes. The homosexual is a broken individual- a sinner that Jesus Christ deeply loves, one He is ready and willing to completely save and set free! Hebrew 7:25

      Is God’s love for the homosexual unconditional? Yes! Is God’s mercy and forgiveness given unconditionally to those continuing in homosexual sin? No! "He who conceals his sins does not prosper, but whoever confess and renounces them finds mercy." Pr. 28:13 It is only as one confesses and renounces his sin that he finds mercy. Homosexuality must be called sin, or it will never be confessed and renounced. The same spirit that inhabited the shell of Pharaoh and the shell of Adolf Hitler now inhabits the pro-abortion, pro-homosexual leaders in our nation.

      Our Lord told us that the gates of hell would not prevail against the Church. It is the Church that takes the initiative, storming the gates of sin with the power of grace, the gates of falsehood with the power of truth, and the gates of death with the power of life. And the gates will not stand.

You have to go through a test, before you have a testimony.

152 babies killed. 10 babies saved. 669 babies saved since January 2000!

Highlights and lowlights of this past week’s carnage which includes Saturday’s events, "A Call to Fathers" led by Pastor Rusty Thomas of Waco, TX. Kickoff of the "Silent-No-More" chapter headed up by post-abortion victors and survivors, Small Victories tenth anniversary of standing outside these gates, and Christian Family Day at the abortuary. We were also blessed by several saved babies from the past few months from Hope(less) visiting the saints outside this abortion mill and their families.

Thursday- Thirty-one children had their lives taken from them during ‘midnight’ abortions. Mothers came from Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, and Missouri. Seven of God’s faithful saints witnessed these moms acting out their ‘right of choice,’ but we also watched as four mothers left the abortion mill without killing their unborn babies, PTL! Kim and Tish , two young Pentecostal women from E. St. Louis, stopped and talked with proclaimer Les before they went into the mill. Kim was pregnant and not sure about having an abortion. After a few minutes both women came out of the clinic and Kim literally ran into Angela’s arms and they both began crying. Angela whispered to her that she prayed God would hit her in the heart and she’d come out because God had a plan for her and her baby. The next day we were able to give Kim an ultrasound and show her a 19 week old baby. PTL! Angela told her about all the things Small Victories could help with like doctors for her and the baby. She gladly accepted all the information.

Amber, who is twenty-three weeks pregnant, and her mom came out of the clinic after being there for three hours. Angela asked them "did you kill your baby?" and as they drove out of the parking lot the mom rolled the car window down and said, "How do you know what we did?"
"I don’t know, but I’ve been standing outside this abortion mill for ten years and I’ve learned a lot through those years, but usually when people are in there over three hours, they aren’t getting their teeth cleaned."
"Well we didn’t do it, but she’s having a hard time with this, she’s sixteen years old," the mother said.
"And I’m not raising a baby".
"But that’s okay, We can help you. God has a plan for you and your baby. We can adopt that baby."
I explained S.V. has already facilitated the adoption of ten babies saved from this abortion mill in the past few years.
Angela looked Amber in the eye, and said, "Placing your baby in the arms of a Christian couple who cannot conceive their own child is the most heroic thing a mother can do … killing a baby never solves anyone’s problems … there is a better way … that’s why I stand out here day after day."
The mom then asked, "Would Jesus ask us if we killed our baby?.."
"Yes, He would," Angela explained, "Jesus wants you to know the truth, and He wouldn’t sugar-coat it."
This baby is up for adoption and due in September.

Another couple from Montese, IL parked in front of three proclaimers standing with the graphic signs. After sitting there for a half hour and talking back and forth, Verna turned a sign around and showed them what abortion looks like. The older gentleman, possibly the grandfather of the baby, broke down crying. Soon after they pulled off the lot and the older man told John, "I can’t do, I cannot kill my grandchild." "Thank you for being here". And they drove off.

"A Call to Fathers was the charge outside these gates, as Rusty Thomas led the Church of Jesus Christ into worship. Pastor Steve and the Kula family provided the praise music. Between 70-80 proclaimers listened to God’s Word as twenty-five mothers and fathers sacrificed their son’s and daughters upon this altar of stainless steel, to the god of convenience. Rusty spoke on turning the hearts of the fathers to their children, and from their children to their fathers as it says in Malachi 4:6. PTL! One young mother ‘s heart was touched and rolled her car window down to tell the saints she couldn’t kill her child, and left this mill with her child still ALIVE!

On Saturday night at New Birth Church, Pastor Steve welcomed a group of about fifty people as we heard Rusty give us "A Call To Fathers" to stand up and lead our families and run the race God has called us to. We had fellowship and food and a rewarding experience.

On Sunday morning, Rusty delivered a heartfelt message about his past experiences and how we need to go out and fight this battle against abortion. Our nation is destroying itself. After so much innocent blood has been shed, God will not hear our prayers or heal our land. Isaiah 1:15. The disciples asked, "Who is the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven? ... a child"… Math. 18.

Throughout Scripture, God stresses the importance to stop the shedding of innocent blood and speak out, and stand up .. and yet only a handful of Christians have made up the hedge and stood in the gap for the least of these. In Jer. 19:5 ... they have set up deathcamps ... in Leviticus 20 anyone who gives their children to Baal, will be put to death. That is the punishment for sin, but in the American Church today, their is no sermons on sin, no speeches on judgement.

The churches have become "bewitched" ... the churches of today have fallen under a spell. Yes, there is sin in the camp ... as in Sodom & Gomorrah. In Isaiah 1 is what God said to the Israelites.. "My sanctuary is defiled"... pornography, homosexuality, murdering innocent children, fills our complacent and apathetic pulpits, the sin of silence plays out day after day while the seeker friendly pastors tickle the ears of these sinners. We have become fat and lazy.

Sin fascinates, then assassinates. It darkens our souls. In Psalms 106, "Those that hate you, rule over you." It comes to a point, when God says, "I’m not going to forgive"..as in II Kings 24. God is long-suffering, and He’s been very patient with His Church. God came to bring us revelation, as in the book of Revelation, God revealed Himself. The American Church needs spiritual surgery, but first, we need to become unraveled. We need to become a living rebuke.

God has a three-fold plan: 1. REPENT! 2. Rebuke the oppressors. 3. Rescue the innocent, defend the fatherless. Their blood cries out for vengeance! Math. 13:1-22 "But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear. Remember, "A hundred years from now it will not matter the sort of house I lived in, what my bank account was or the kind of car I drove, but the world may be different because I was important in the life of a child".

Tuesday- Thirty-one little boys and girls were dying inside the purple doors of choice as ten proclaimers pleaded for their lives during midnight abortions.

Thursday- As two saints stood in the gap Nancy pulled onto the hopeless abortion clinic lot and Angela greeted her and asked her if she could help her. She said "oh, I’m not going in there." She got out of the car and shared her tearful testimony with Angela and John. How years ago she had an illegal abortion, "it never goes away, you always remember the date and I just want to be forgiven." Angela held her as she shared and prayed the sinner’s repentance prayer. Angela told her, "there Nancy you’ve asked God to forgive you and He knows you are truly sorry and if you ask him to be your Lord and Savior he’ll put a new song in your heart and your sins will be washed away and you’ll be as white as snow." Psalm 51:7 Nancy kept hugging Angela and said, I want to be forgiven, She went on to her doctor’s appointment across the street and she promised to come back and stand with Angela one day.

Saturday- Five pastors led the charge at the gates of ruin and destruction with representation from over twenty-five metro-east churches and an approximate 152 saints were crying out for the least of these. Mothers were coming in much later this morning to kill their babies and the count was low. Praise and worship filled the air and dynamic tag-team preaching shook the gates, as the stench of death permeated the air of Granite City, IL. Twenty-nine children were murdered their bodies were found dismembered, legs and arms torn apart, their heads crushed and sunken beyond recognition and the person who did this horrible act is free and will do it again unless we do something to stop it. God expects us to do something about it. If these were four-year-olds that were being murdered would we do something then? What’s the difference? Location?

Sidewalk counselors were on all sides of the clinic including death alley, reaching and talking to the men and women headed for the mill offering free help, ultrasounds, adoption, and Jesus. The deathscorts were outnumbered and the clinic had to call more to come and walk these moms to their child’s death. Saints also kept prayer going around the gates.

Sunday- The Small Victories Walk for Life at Tower Grove Park was a great success. Attendance was over the goal set, along with a wheelchair pro-lifer, children, and several pro-life dogs in support, we had praise, worship and prayer before the walk and encountered the ‘Pagan Fest’ as we went through the park. After the walk some of the saints went back to the ‘Pagan Fest’ to witness to the lost souls there. Acts 1:8 " …You will be My witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." We also witnessed to groups of Muslims that were picnicking and a SV walker shared a story of how before he came to the walk, he sat down at the only stool open at a resturant and noticed the man next to him, deep in prayer over his eggs, He struck up a conversation with this man who kept his head bowed, He told him of the S.V. prolife fundraiser he was going to after his breakfast,and asked the man if he wanted to join in the walk. The man was reluctant to join and he shared his tearful testimony of how he had just paid money to have his baby killed and he was still feeling bad. The walk was a divine appointment for many.

Pastor Ed Martin writes ~ I know of many pastors who have lost churches because they wanted to stop child killing. I know of catholic priests who have been assigned to parishes far away from killing centers just to keep them quiet about abortion ..

.Jesus said that He would sit on the throne and judge the nations. He will separate the people as a shepherd separates the sheep and the goats. "For I was hungry and you gave Me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave Me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited Me in, I needed clothes and you clothed Me..."

Matt. 25:34-36. And Jesus told them, "Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of Mine you did for Me."

We must always remember that Jesus isn’t fooled by our actions. He knows our heart. He knows when we are just making excuses about helping others. He knows our thoughts. Please don’t think you can fool our Lord.

"Then I will tell them plainly, I never knew you. Away from Me you evildoers!" Matt 7:23 Jesus wasn’t talking to the heathen or even the religious leaders of the day. He was speaking to those around Him- those who followed Him-those who ministered in His Name.

I feel sorry for pastors that really try to do something to stand against evil; that do come out to the death camps and try to save the children but are rejected by those that they love the most. If you have a good pastor; one that stands up for those in need because he truly loves them; then help him as much as you can because you have a real jewel.

The French Philosopher, Alexis De Tocqueville, once stated that "America is great because America is good, and if America ever ceases to be good, America will cease to be great." America was great because America’s foundation was Christianity. The reason why we were so successful militarily is because we used our strength to help aid and defend the weak nations of the world against strong, tyrannical, oppressors. And now because we have abandoned God, excluded Him from the public life of our nation, and trashed His holy laws by which men are to live by, we now use our strength to exploit and destroy the most vulnerable amongst us, the unborn child.

Children are being dismembered and their skulls crushed and suctioned beyond recognition without the luxury of anesthesia, while their fellow Christian brothers and sisters are sitting in movie theaters, on the golf course, cheering at the baseball game, watching the telly,.. and the American Church?..well, over the cries of the dying babies, another verse of "Sing a lil’ Louder", rang from their favorite pews, as they were patting one another on the back after that great "prosperity sermon"..Babies are dying..! "What are you doing?". How are you making a difference in the world? Are the lost coming to you? Or are you to be like Jesus and go forth into the world?

To my critics: the Pharisees, the Sadducees, the can’t sees, the don’t wanna-sees that are sitting on the sidelines with their bag of excuses, remember: I like the way I’m doing it all wrong compared to the way that you’re not doing it at all. If you’re pro-life then act like it!

151 babies killed. 7 babies saved. 658 babies saved since January 2000!

Wednesday- Two saints stood at the gates and visualized a young couple drive onto the parking lot who had been there the day before to kill their unborn baby. The panic stricken man ran from his car up to the guard’s cage and a purple butcherette from inside the abortuary was summoned with a wheel chair to retrieve this woman who was obviously experiencing "medical complications" from the prior butchering day.

Thursday- During midnight abortions ten saints stood in the gap for the thirty-two babies that were being marched to their death. (Prov. 24:12) Five mothers came all the way from Indiana. One mother came back out and told the saints that she didn’t do it and she took the information and thanked them for being there.

Friday- High killing day. Another out-of-state carnage day. Alisha chose life, after talking to Angela and saints, for her eighteen-week-old baby PTL! and was walked down to Dr. Mark’s office for further obstetrical care by two proclaimers.

Saturday- Sixty-seventy proclaimers cared enough to show up to be living sacrifices and to lay their lives down for their brothers and sisters that were being led to the slaughter of the innocent. Thirty-five babies were murdered but PTL! Four babies lives were saved and one man, Calvin, was led to Christ. One car containing a young couple from California turned away after circling the clinic nine times. Deathscorts were rebuked by Angela as she told them the yellow vests that they wore should be renamed "poor choice" not "pro choice". Look at the choice that they’re giving women. Lest we forget that these unborn children are being given.

But one mother was brave enough to get up off the table when they would not show her the ultrasound and as Donna and Angela were speaking to her, the deathscorts tried to block the conversation with their bodies and one hardcore poor-choice escort, Ellen, who carries her little dog Andrea around and vehemently marches these babies into their death, deliberately breast-butted her chest into Angela and told her to shut up and not to hit her. The elderly Amish-looking poor-choice escort, Rick, Ellen’s father, was also screaming at these women not to listen.

As Angela yelled to call the police that she had just been assaulted once again, this shocked the young women who came back out of the abortion clinic so much, that they drove off the parking lot and went across the street and yelled for someone to get Angela, they needed help. Angela was able to show Brittney a picture of her twenty-week-old baby girl via ultrasound in the back of the family van. Much ooohing and aaahing was going on as Brittney was watching her little girl suck her thumb. She just started crying with joy. She told Angela how mad Hope butcherettes got when she got up off the table and changed her mind. When they wouldn’t show Brittney the ultrasound, she had a bad feeling and got up and walked out.

Angela exchanged pregnancy info with her and gave her Dr. Mark’s number and she said, " I’m sorry that those people yelled at you, they were just being real mean and they didn’t want us to talk with you." She thanked Angela and came out of the van and was grateful that there was help. We prayed with her and her family and they left this abortuary.

Angela shared the good news with the saints. Pastor Steve spoke with a young girl in her car. She was crying. After talking with Pastor Steve she said that she was going home to do the right thing and she saved her baby. A young man Calvin, who recognized Angela from the abortion clinic three years ago gave his heart to Jesus and asked for forgiveness.

You know, at least women getting coat hanger abortions knew what they were in for. According to B. Powers R.N.- More women should be able to tell their story and their experiences with abortion. Most of them are not very pretty. These women are usually scarred for life both mentally and physically. Abortionists are liars. Why don’t they allow the women to see what it is that they are aborting via sonogram? Are they afraid to show the women her tiny baby sucking a thumb in its little watery bed?

Why aren’t these women given the whole truth regarding the operative procedure they are about too undergo as well as the side affects … just like every other medical invasive procedure. There is no truth to what they are told if they are told anything at all. The stories coming from those who have had abortions, and there are many of them, are much more horrible than any back alley coat hanger abortionist ever performed. Then at least the women knew what they were in for and expected the worst. Today a woman’s trust has been abused by the same coat hanger – kitchen table abortionists with an MD after their name.

It should be the goal of every Christian to defend the authentic rights and dignity of both the born and the unborn. In regard to the women and men who have been involved in abortions, it is especially our duty to be boldly compassionate and persistent in our efforts to spread the good news of God’s mercy and healing. To be effective in reaching out to those scarred by abortion, we must demonstrate, most especially by our acts rather than just our words, that we truly do care about women (far more than the pro-abortionists), both before and after an abortion.

So, we who are followers of Christ are also required to spread the good news of God’s love and forgiveness by our own acts of understanding, love, and mercy. Remember also, that our facts are not as important as our acts. Proclaiming the truth that abortion hurts women will accomplish little unless we use this understanding to guide us in serving women. Our complete message, in word and deed, must be, "Abortion hurts women, and we’re the ones who care." When pro-life Christians believe and act on this message, we will finally expose the "pro-choice" myth for the poor-choice reality it truly is. When pro-life Christians believe we will finally expose the "pro-choice" myth for the poor-choice reality it truly is. All you need to remember are two words- poor choice.

Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future"

124 babies killed. 5 babies saved. 656 babies saved since January 2000!

Tues- Elizabeth listened to the saints as she was going in to the abortuary as the late term mothers lined up to sign the death warrants on their children… She listened to the cries of mercy… mercy.. We prayed for God to touch their hearts... PTL! She came back out... "I’m not killing my baby"…

Wen. - Bonnie after changing her mind about the abortion, was tossed out "On her ear", of the killing place onto the sidewalk where Hazel & Shelley comforted her. Bonnie was upset that they forced her to pay $85.00 for the ultrasound and another $10.00 for the visit. And they couldn’t tell her why she had four positive pregnancy tests. A tubal pregnancy came into question, so saints rushed her into Dr. Mark’s office and onto an emergency room where she received treatment. So much for safe, woman’s health care… "Where there’s choice, there’s hope".. Where was Bonnie’s "choice"? $$$

Illinois proved once again to be the land of the lawless, the catch-basin for surrounding states as 124 babies lost their lives. Sex, drugs, crimes, you want your baby killed; lay your money down. With only the occasional brush against the remnant crying out from the chief Gestapo agent Herr Ruebenhausenhoffer. But, Herr Ruebenhausenhoffer, the blood of the innocent drips off your hands onto the streets of "Sodom & Gomorrah" the city that you proclaim to protect and serve. The mayor, the pastors and churches have innocent blood on their hands. When the watchmen sound the trumpets and they are ignored, God have mercy on them. God will judge you accordingly, and will show you the same mercy you extended to the gentle Christians who stood in the gap at the gates that you protected and served, and for the babies you did not stand up for. Justice will finally be served and it will be swift. Sodom & Gomorrah was destroyed for its evilness and so shall Granite City be destroyed for the vile altars and corruption it houses. Gen. 19. "Woe to those who acquit the guilty for a bribe, and deny justice to the innocent." Isa. 5:23 The soul of that city must repent and turn to Jesus.

Friday- We had a long-distance save. PTL! A college student from the East Coast, was being forced into killing her child, because her parents would be embarrassed to have an illegitimate grandchild. "It would kill her father"! Her mother enforced those words and flew up to Pittsburgh, and accompanied her to the killing facility. We put out a prayer request via airwaves. She phoned that evening and told Angela "She didn’t go through with the abortion" ... Mindy said "they turned the ultrasound screen from her," but she changed her position so that she could catch a glimpse of her baby’s image and his heartbeat. She flew home this past weekend to personally tell her father. PTL!

Saturday- A young man named Daniel, and Co. returned from the previous killing day to complete the gruesome butchery on this 24 week old baby. Daniel spoke to this young man on Friday, to no avail. Angela greeted him and the deathscorts tried to discourage him from conversing with the saints, but we reminded them of this young man’s 1st amendment right, so much for "choice". Angela inquired "why, did she wait so long to kill her baby?" The young man replied, " She just realized she couldn’t handle it anymore, she didn’t want it". We reminded him of the torture that baby would undergo, the suffering, they can’t numb his little body. Daniel seemed uninterested at this point and began expousing on his satanic beliefs and that the world was overpopulated as is. Oh… puleeze.!. Angela asked, "Where did you hear that baloney"? Science 101 right? "Yeah," Daniel replied. Other saints shared the truth with him, but the only thing that upset him was that he drove 10 ½ hrs. and no motels in G.C. would rent them a room as they were all underage..but, they finally found one after they paid extra $, but hey, in G.C. Illinois YOU CAN KILL YOUR BABY at any age.. without your parents knowledge.

Sunday- Ten saints stood outside the Metropolitan Community Church & St. John’s United Methodist Church in St. Louis to proclaim Abortion is murder and Homosexuality is sin. It was a beautiful day to proclaim the truth to the pastors and the members of these two churches. The pastors tried to argue with us that abortion is not against God’s Law and its not a baby until it’s born. The lie that the Hope clinic, P.P. and NOW has put out to a lot of Christians is that they only do abortions up until 8 or 9 weeks. Many people that went in these churches said, "They only do abortions up until 8 weeks." The policeman that was hired by St. John’s United Methodist Church asked, "why would anyone kill their child when they’re 6 months pregnant?" It was a great experience for everyone to be able to proclaim God’s truth to the lost.

God’s warning to Israel- Ezekiel 3:17-19 "Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel; so hear the word I speak and give them warning from me. When I say to a wicked man, ‘You will surely die,’ and you do not warn him or speak out to dissuade him from his evil ways in order to save his life, that wicked man will die for his sin, and I will hold you accountable for his blood. But if you do warn the wicked man and he does not turn from his wickedness or from his evil ways, he will die for his sin; but you will have saved yourself." That is why we do what we do.

The American Church seems to be boxing the air, it’s not making contact with anything. There’s no suffering, no sacrifice. Sooner or later the committed Christian will find himself in conflict with those who resist hiss message. Like two fighters standing in the center ring of a boxing match, they throw punches at one another, hoping to find a weakness that can later be exploited. Since God’s Word is opposed to immorality and wickedness, a conflict will inevitably develop as one side attempts to negate the effect of the other. When you’re on the ropes the committed Christian knows that the Holy Spirit is in his corner with the smelling salts in front of his nose. 2 Timothy 2:5 "Similarly, if anyone competes as an athlete, he does not receive the victor’s crown unless he competes according to the rules. The hardworking farmer should be the first to receive a share of the crops. Reflect on what I am saying, for the Lord will give you insight into all this." Remember- a gift will get you anywhere, character will keep you there.

Remember- a gift will get you anywhere, character will keep you there.

142 babies killed. 8 babies saved. 651 babies saved since January 2000!

Mon- Bag’n Tag day. Fetal remains are pieced together tagged, bagged and retrieved to the highest bidder. Abortion still remains the most lucrative and unregulated industry in North America.

Tues.- Proclaimers kept the vigil crying "mercy" for the lives of thirty two lil girls & boys that were being led to their slaughter only five days before "Mother’s Day".

Wen.- The "sin of silence" was alive and well and being played out in Granite City, IL., as twenty –eight babies were dying behind the purple doors of this abortuary. And, the churches just kept playing church... "bless me… bless me"… was being echoed… over the cries of the innocent. One mother came out and announced to Daniel, "I can’t do it!" PTL

Thurs.- Only three days till "Mother’s Day"… but, thirty-two mothers whose unborn babies’ destinies that had already been determined by God Jeremiah 1:5, were premeditating the murders of their children. Three mother’s chose to celebrate motherhood, as they came back out, Angela asked "Are you going to be celebrating Mother’s day this Sunday"? ...Yes, she replied and tearfully smiled. Another gave a "thumbs-up" when asked…

Fri.- five saints stood in the gap while twenty-nine babies were dying a merciless death. Passer-bys were encouraging the saints to keep up the good work. PTL! Two mothers changed their mind two days before Mother’s Day. Shock waves were still being felt from the expose` on live radio of the Hope clinic rebuke from post-abortive women who had horrific experiences once inside this death-camp.

Saturday- Holy, Holy, is our God almighty. Holy, Holy is His name alone. Isaiah 6:3 It is You we adore. It is You. As tornadic weather soon greeted us in the early morning hours about thirty saints were proclaiming this God of wonders and God of might. There were heavy rains and tornadoes around us but the Christians won again as the clinic escorts and workers cowered inside the clinic. Twenty mothers killed their babies only one day before Mother’s Day. Two moms did change their minds PTL! After the rain came to a stop these two moms came out of the clinic at different times and happily told saints that because of their courage while standing in the storms, they could not kill their baby. One of the Moms said, " It was something else to see you guys standing out there for us." John 15:13 "Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends."

Bottom-feeders sported new killing attire as they paraded their sin outside the abortuary in full view so the proclaimers would take notice- low level clinic workers wore cowardly yellow t- shirts saying, ‘We Love Dr. Shah,’ while upper echelon workers sported the bloody green ($) "cha-ching" t- shirts that were whining, ‘Dr. Shah is Our Hero.’ Let’s remember who signs their bloody paychecks. Saints at the clinic prayed for them. If a murderer of children is their hero, they really need Jesus.

We received a praise report over the internet. A young girl who was pregnant and abortion minded walked by us one day outside Hope abortion clinic and heard Angela talking about Jesus and the small group of people passing out Bibles and tracts It really touched her heart. She said it changed her mind about abortion. PTL! She said, "Let Angela know." She loves to see people standing outside the abortion mill. She has decided to keep her baby. PTL!

Over, 35,000 Christians were drawn to Christian Family Day at Gateway Raceway, only a few miles down the road 20 babies were being slaughtered. It just shows how are priorities are mixed up in these last days. I sat at the stoplight 15-20 minutes watching fans racing to get in the Nascar racetrack and remembering only 4 hours earlier mothers were racing in to the abortion mill to kill their babies, less than 24 hours before Mother’s Day. Children were of little value in the last days of Sodom and Gomorrah. Just as now. There are many of us who call ourselves Christians but we look the other way and do nothing as the innocent are being slaughtered. The great reformer Martin Luther once declared that,

"the preacher who does not rebuke the sins of the rulers through God’s word spoken publicly, boldly, and honestly, strengthens the sins of the tyrants, and becomes a partaker in them and bears responsibility for them." God has called us to proclaim His word, to be vigilant watchmen standing high upon the walls of Zion, sounding forth the clear, clarion call of the trumpet, calling out God’s people for war against the hosts of evil advancing all around us. We as the Christians of America, we as the pastors of America, have failed in this responsibility before God. And our country is paying a dire price for that failure.

Make no mistake about it, brothers and sisters, we are responsible. This is history repeating itself. We cannot blame the liberal media or the corrupt politicians for what has overtaken our country. It is our fault. We are the ones God has placed here at this moment in our nation’s history to be the stinging salt and the shining light. We look to the church and the shepherds in those churches as our moral compass but they have looked the other way and have minded their own business. They blended in and went along and followed the path of least resistance. Is this judgement from God, the plagues, calamities, the natural disasters or the SARS epidemic in China, over 53 million babies have been killed in China due to the one couple, one child population policy. Is this a sign and judgement? The scope of oppression is staggering and constitutes one of the most massive slaughters in the history of our world today. In the wake of atrocities and evil, he who keeps silent fails in his responsibility before God and shares in that guilt. The apathetic Church of Jesus Christ has cosigned itself to irrelevance and impotence in the ongoing struggle for the soul of America. The moral meltdown that has overtaken America has been met with a deafening silence from the pulpits of America and the people-pleasing preachers who presume to stand in them. This desolation of decency could not have occurred if the pulpits of this land were once again aflame with righteousness. – Alexis de Tocqueville

We are responsible for what has happened to America. "Never again" is inscribed in the Auschwitz memorial, "Christian young people we must never let it happen again!" It is happening again. It is happening today as the innocents are slaughtered in a 30-year holocaust that has seen nearly 45 million little boys and girls brutally done to death. It is happening again, as families are fractured and marriages are broken. It is happening again as militant homosexuals pursue absolute approval and complete acceptance. It is happening again as our young people lose their way and often their lives in a maze of alcohol and drugs. It is happening again as the nation’s leaders wallow in decadence and deceit while the people look on in apathetic indifference. It is happening again for as the killing goes on, and the nation is led down a path of destruction, the Church and her pastors stand silent. We must look beyond the walls of our beautiful sanctuaries and the comfort of our padded pews to see the chaos, the corruption and the moral decay that reigns throughout our culture. In Mother Teresa’s words, "God does not call us to be popular or successful he calls us to be faithful." We are responsible for what has happened in America and there is no Pontius Pilate’s basin that can cleanse the hands of the pastors and the Christians from the guilty stain of innocent blood. Woe to us, America!

168 babies killed. 3 babies saved. 643 babies saved since Jan. 2000!

Tuesday- during the midnight abortions forty-one babies were killed. Five saints tried pleading for these unborn lives and praise the Lord one mom who came all the way from Iowa changed her mind and didn't abort her baby!

      One mom and dad from Missouri came back to the clinic after she'd had an abortion some weeks ago. As Savanah talked to the boyfriend he explained they had already gotten the abortion when she was early in her pregnancy. But she was having problems, " severe pain and really bad bleeding," he said.

      As all this happened, a proclaimer on his way to join the saints was in a serious car accident and rushed to the emergency room of Gateway Regional. Three saints were left to stand in the gap as forty-one lil boys and girls were ripped apart in their mother's wombs. Daniel had to "pinch-hit" for Angela on the secular radio "showdown" with Hope(less) deathcamp director Sally "Murderess" Burgess. It was glorious! God showed up on the airwaves. He lifted the skirts once more and exposed the lies of this abortuary from Sally's own lips. Eight out of ten call-ins were pro-life. PTL!

      One caller was "Tracey" who rebuked S.B. on air as she called SB a "liar"... "You do perform abortions over twenty-four weeks, you killed my baby and I was over 24 weeks, and Tracey pointedly told of her experience inside Hope (less) where the first thing they do is give you two pills to calm you, then they make you sign a postcard to your local legislators encouraging them to keep abortion legal, at that point Tracey said your eyes are getting very heavy and all you want to do is sleep, but they call you in a room for the so-called counseling and then she remembered the excruciating pain of the abortion, only to be sent home profusely bleeding out on the front seat of her car, only to have her parents rush her to DePaul emergency room in St. Louis, Mo., to have had the doctors tell her parents that their seventeen year old daughter may never be able to bear children due to the punctured uterus from the late-term abortion. So much for your pleasant experiences at the Hope Clinic.

Wednesday- 28 little boys and girls died. A drug salesman unleashes weapons of mass destruction and is firmly rebuked by saints.

Thursday- the day started off with great joy. Jasmine Kay, 7lbs. 6 oz. was born at 7:20 a.m. This is another baby saved from abortion. But twenty-five babies were given a death warrant, tried, convicted, and executed without a jury or a trial.

Friday- 32 babies were killed. The apostate churches and Christians of Granite City cursed the remnant of Christians that stood at the gates crying out for the lives of the babies that were scheduled to be slaughtered. Dante wrote "the hottest seats in hell are reserved for those who in a moral crisis, did nothing…"

    The Illinois Regulatory Medical Board filed a formal complaint against Mr. Yogendra Shah for performing an abortion on a woman who did not have a viable pregnancy. The complaint alleges gross negligence.

Saturday- over eighty-five church militants cared enough to speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves (Proverbs 31:8-9), and took the truth to the streets as the early churches did. Ed Martin said, "If we truly love Jesus and His Truth, then we will bring His message to those that need it the most and not sit comfortably in our churches waiting for the lost to come in. Jesus, as the Good Shepherd "left the ninety-nine and went out to look for the one that was lost. Today, we stand on the streets of America proclaiming the truth about child killing. We demand, from the religious leaders and Christians, more than just lip service. We demand action to stop this killing of God's "little ones" - but they would rather condemn the messenger than condemn the killer.

    Political action, pregnancy centers, pro-life billboards, homes for unwed mothers and education efforts will not stop a woman from going into the abortion mill when she is there to kill her child. That is the truth, But it is also a proven fact that when a group of pro-lifers there praying and holding signs many of the pregnant moms change their minds or will not go in. That also is the truth. Pregnancy centers are a good mercy ministry, but as we found out last Saturday what good is it to have a climate controlled building when there is no one to help inside these building to help these 'saves'?

    Alisha was rushed over to Granite City to Small Victories' front line ministry van for help because no pregnancy center was open to show Alisha a picture of her unborn baby on the ultrasound machine. Small Victories was able to show Alisha a picture of her eight week old baby and to get hold of Dr. Mark for an appointment later that afternoon to confirm her pregnancy and set up further obstetrical care. We were also able to hear her testimony of what happened when she changed her mind at Planned Parenthood. The butcherettes got mad and told her not to speak to those people outside, but she did, and they talked to her about Jesus.

    After her ultrasound Angela asked her what changed her mind, she said it was the graphic pictures of what she was about to do that changed her mind. When she saw the little torn up hands she said I can't do that, not to my baby.

    But most women going into the abortion mills have never been to a pregnancy center, or even know where one is. Most of the women seeking an abortion look in the yellow pages under "abortion providers", not "abortion alternatives." That is why we MUST be at the killing centers.

    The answer to every problem in America is Jesus. That is the message the churches must take to the streets. When Jesus is uplifted, abortion will end. Acts 5:42

    Billy Graham said it well, "Who knows what events await us in this century-both for good and for evil? I believe that the greatest challenge of this century will not be technological, economic, social or political. The greatest challenge, instead will be spiritual: for unless we tame the human heart, the 21st century could become the most destructive and cataclysmic in human history."

King Jesus Champions The Gospel and KOs The Devil At The Gates in Granite City

Flip - S.V. banquet at Pheasant Point Baptist Church

Friday- it was a victorious night at the fundraising banquet for Small Victories. There were over 200 saints in attendance. A free lance photographer gave his heart to Jesus and a few minutes later a love offering was taken for Daniel and Angela's ministry and the Holy Spirit came down and filled this new, baby Christian's heart with the grace of the Holy Spirit and he announced he would match the offering taken… PTL! There was great praise and worship music by Joy Mick, and Daniel and Angela gave their testimony. Angela told a heartfelt story of a reformed Sandy who had every intention of aborting her three grandbabies. Flip gave a great teaching message. Good fellowship and spiritual time was had by all.

Saturday- As innocent blood was flowing throughout the sewers of Granite City, IL. churches were just "sing'n a lil' louder" ... Over the cries of thirty unborn little boys and girls. Between seventy-eight and one hundred little David's turned out to "pick a fight" with the "Goliath" of our day. Two mothers decided against sacrificing their unborn children and left this altar of murder and mayhem with their babies still ALIVE! Church members from Faith Lutheran, New Birth, New Life Assembly of God, Our Lady Queen of Peace, and St. Peter and Paul stood in the gap for the these precious image bearers. Four pastors represented clergy with Reverend Flip Benham director of O.S.A. leading the charge. In 1 Samuel 11:1-7 Compromise seemed to be the order of the day.. "reaching across the aisles"

We live in a "sissified nation." Our sword (the Word of God) is our most powerful weapon, yet religious men are not using it for what God intended, they're showing off the sword and putting it away for another day. Everyone is coming out of the closet, except the Christian… Why are so many evangelical Christians killing their own flesh & blood? Because religious men are not using the sword that God equipped them with every Sunday.

"God will forgive me"…Oh yeah?.. God desires obedience, not sacrifice! Instead of waiting for the "wham-bulance"... 'I'm afraid they may sue me'...whaa- whaa… I say, "Get in line, take a number." God is looking for men to show up at the gates, to pick a fight with the Goliath's instead of cowarding in the caves. The devil uses the same fist to fight but has three different gloves covering that fist. The pink glove of homosexuality, the black glove of Islam, and the red glove of the blood of abortion. The Holy Spirit is in our corner and when we are up on those ropes He's got the smelling salts in our face. Ding, ding, ding!

Gen. 22:17-18, Gen. 23:17 Let's roll, we're goin' in for a fight." Psalms 24:8-9 "Lift these gates so that the King of Glory may come in."

Men of God need to be out on these front lines of the battle, with the Word of God as their weapons. It shouldn't be the pregnancy centers run by women leading the battle. When America went to war, we didn't send the Red Cross out first and then the troops. No, the mercy ministry is sent out towards the end or after the fighting. Justice first, then mercy. "Hoorah!"

1 Samuel 11:1-7
The Ammonites were going up against Israel to attack them. So the men of Israel wanted to "compromise" with them so they wouldn't have to fight the battle like the Church of Jesus Christ. Israel's leaders were wimpy and whining. Israel was a "sissified" nation. King Saul heard about it and he cut up an oxen telling the people, "This is what will happen to the oxen of anyone who won't follow Saul and Samuel." What if God cut up a church and sent it to the other churches of St. Louis. The would be terrified to lose their churches, their salary, their pension. They would rise up and fight like the men of Israel did. 1 Samuel 11:7 "Then the terror of the Lord fell on the people, and they turned out as one man."

1 Samuel 13:1-15
King Saul had 2,000 fighting men with him and his son Jonathan had 1,000. Jonathan attacked the Philistine outpost and the Philistines heard about it. Israel heard the news and said, "Saul has attacked the Philistine outpost and now Israel has become a stench to the Philistines." The men of Israel were whining again. They needed a "wham-bulance" to take them away. When the men of Israel saw that their situation was critical and that their army was hard pressed, they hid in caves and thickets, among the rocks, and in pits and cisterns. They didn't want to fight the battle just like the church today. The church is hiding in the closet. Men of God are hiding in caves. Jonathan picked a fight. The Church needs to be like Jonathan and pick a fight with the devil. We need to pick a fight with the abortion industry, homosexuality, and Islam. We need to fight the battle. When you lose your life in battle you do valiantly.

1 Samuel 13:19- 14:23
The Philistines were raiding Israel of their weapons so that Israel couldn't fight. Only King Saul and his son Jonathan had a spear and a sword on the day of battle. But only Jonathan was using his sword. Our sword is the Word of God. The enemy has taken away our sword. We like to sing about it and talk about it and show it off but we don't use it. We need to be like Jonathan and use the Word of God against the devil. When Jesus was tempted by the devil, he used God's Word to fight him.

In 1 Samuel 14 Jonathan picked another fight with the Philistines. The men of Israel were still hiding in their caves. Jonathan said, " Come lets go over to the outpost of those uncircumcised fellows. Perhaps the Lord will act in our behalf. Nothing can hinder the Lord from saving, whether by many or by few." Jonathan's armor bearer was with him in heart and soul. We need to be that much faithful to God. Jonathan and his armor bearer showed themselves to the Philistines. They let the Philistines see them. They came out of the closet! Everybody is coming out of the closet… except the Christian. The Philistines said, "Look! The Hebrews are crawling out of the holes they were hiding in." In their first attack Jonathan and his armor bearer killed some twenty men. Panic struck the whole Philistine army. The ground shook. It was a panic sent by God. The King Saul's army came out of their holes and joined in the battle. We need to fight the devil. We need to do to the devil what David did to Goliath. David took out the "uncircumcised Philistine who defied the armies of the living God." 1 Samuel 17:26 Just like Jonathan took out the "uncircumcised fellows" who attacked Israel. The Lord rescued Israel! King Jesus rules!..and the devil drools"!

Remember, "A gift will get you anywhere, but character will keep you there".

149 babies killed. 5 babies saved. 635 babies saved since January 2000!

Monday- Saints stood outside Mr. Shah's OB/GYN office in Granite City to expose his evil deed of murdering children by day and delivering them into the obstetrical unit by night.

Friday- "America, Jesus died for you".. as Christians around the world remembered this day as Jesus' death on a cross at Calvary, it was 'just another day' to thirty-two moms who had their babies murdered. They didn't think about Christ's ultimate sacrifice but instead sacrificed their babies to the god of choice and inconvenience. They didn't realize that Jesus shed His blood to pay for our sins, but they shed their child's blood because 'it was their choice.' By God's power three babies were saved as their mothers did not have an abortion. PTL!

Saturday- As America was waking up to the confirmation that the two bodies found on the shores of the San Francisco bay were Laci Peterson and her newborn son, Connor, thirty-eight little boys and girls were being marched to their deaths in the Hope(less) deathcamp. By 5:30 a.m. seven late term mothers from the day before were being carried or helped into the doors as they were already delivering their unborn babies in their loose fitting jogging pants. Saints were horrified to visualize a mother eight months pregnant hurriedly walking into the abortuary. "Mercy"..Mercy'..weeping proclaimers cried out and one saint fell to her knees begging for this unborn babies life..to no avail . By the end of the killing day, PTL, 2 babies left this abortion mill alive. How, in America can such a civilized nation sit idly by, as this barbaric butchery goes on? I wonder how alarmed people would be if the 4000 baby boys and baby girls killed by abortion each day washed up on the shores all across America? As Scott Peterson is charged with double homicide, why is it legal for abortionists to kill the same age babies in abortion mills? According to the World Health Organization, five hundred women are maimed or killed by abortion daily. Does anyone care? There is a double standard when it is or isn't OK to kill babies and hurt their mothers.

      The American Church today is just as guilty as the Church in Isaiah and Amos's day. God's people had no hatred for evil, or pleasure for good. They felt they were OK as long as they gave their offerings. They knew the place where children were sacrificed at the altar of Molech, but the Church separated themselves and wanted nothing to do with it. Although it is apparent that there was nothing God abhorred more, there was an attitude of indifference among God's people. They had a false sense of comfort and peace. There was no mourning or sadness. They did not grieve over the state of their nation. Just like today. They anted to hear nice manna messages (light, sweet, fluffy) nothing hard. They did not want to hear any disapproval or displeasure from prophets of God. They only wanted to hear nice things.

      Men draw near to God with their mouths but their hearts are so far from him. They are spiritually drunk and lethargic in their stupor. The sleeping American Church is out of touch and judicially blind. They do not want the truth so now they cannot see! We are the Church of Laodecia.
(Rev. 3). That's it, there isn't an eighth church, we are living in the last church age. Apostasy is in full bloom. We think we are so rich and so godly. We don't realize the urgency of our day, we are in the last quarter. But the blind lead the blind right into the ditch.

    We need to repent and get things right before it's too late. Jesus wept over the city because they missed the day of visitation, "they would not come." Just like when the Church was called out to the streets in Granite City, when the alarm sounded, AND THEY DID NOT COME. Baby killing could have ended a long time ago-if the Church really wanted it to. But like in Isaiah 29:9, they didn't want to see, they didn't want to hear, they didn't want to respond-they no longer heard the appeals of God.

      The falling away of the professing church, the lawlessness in the nation, the false delusion and deep depravation which brought confusion, darkness and chaos. In Romans they did what was right in their own eyes-there's nothing wrong with killing babies, there's nothing wrong with homosexuality, there's nothing wrong with pedophiles. Many may profess the faith but there are so few true conversions. We need to love the truth and want the truth-the truth of Jesus' life- His promises, His cross, His sufferings and His glory. In Amos 4 God's patience ran out. He gave them what they deserved. There was an economic collapse. The only reason God relented after a season was because He heard the prayers of Amos and the praying people.

When King Herod killed all the boy children in Bethlehem who were two years old and under (Matt. 2:16), there was weeping and great mourning. His needless slaughter was nothing compared to the scale of death produced by modern America's abortion factories, and yet I can hear hardly a whimper. Who will weep for the babies? Who, I ask you, will raise their voice in prayer and protest? (Richard Exley)

122 babies killed. 9 babies saved. 630 babies saved since January 2000!

Monday- "Mengele Monday…" "Medical waste" van a.k.a. baby body parts on wheels, retrieves preborn babies that were murdered the previous killing week for research and disposal. Saints also stood outside Mr. Shah's ob/gyn office on Myrtle street in Granite City, IL exposing the truth of his evil "Jeckyl/Hyde deeds.

Tuesday- Prayers were answered by an awesome and Holy God, the abortion mill did not kill any babies today! CLOSED-due to technical difficulties.
PTL for technical difficulties!

Wednesday- Black & White Genocide day. Normally, a high figure of black American babies are slaughtered on this weekday.

Thursday- Midnight abortions. On a beautiful spring day, a "pro-life reporter" got to see Small Victories in action as two mothers at different times walked into Angela's arms and chose "life", for their unborn babies. Praise God! Two of the newest members of Small Victories, eleven year-old Brian, and fourteen year-old Tyler, grabbed signs and eagerly pleaded for the innocent babies' lives. Proclaimers Les and Don were astonished at their innocence and "holy" boldness as they spoke to the mothers entering this deathcamp. "Ma'am, Ma'am, if you get an abortion, ...this is what your baby is gonna look like"… please don't do it"! Out of the mouths of babes… Little Brian (all of four feet in height) reached into his jeans pocket, and handed Angela a crumpled -up one dollar bill and said, "Sister Angela, put this towards your ministry"…With that gesture, Angela bent down and put her arms around his short stature, and whispered in Brian's ear, "thank-you for blessing me".

Two former Vietnam veterans stopped by the saints standing in the gap for these babies and encouraged them…"They called us "baby killers", when we returned from Vietnam, the worn looking man told proclaimers. "But, we didn't kill any babies, we tried to save them…" His soft, blue eyes filled with tears as he spoke on the killing fields of today. "God bless you all for trying to save these babies, and he hugged Angela and walked away into the gritiness of Granite City. IL.

Friday- High casualty day as thirty-eight babies were marched into the death chambers of Auschweitz East a.k.a. Hope abortuary (oxymoron), conviently wedged between a struggling steel mill and a pagan first-aid station. Nine proclaimers raised the banner "Jesus is Lord"… One young mother came back out of this abortion mill and looked at Angela with a half smile ..Angela proclaimed to her "Praise the Lord" ...the girl passed by Nolan and said "tell her, I didn't kill my baby"... Shirley was able to speak with both mothers who changed their minds from ending their child's lives.

Saturday- The "Shock & Awe" campaign was raging and blanketing the front-lines of the battle for the preborn in Granite City, IL as the churches "sang' a lil' louder" to cover cries of "the least of these" "Gimme… Gimme… my name is Jimmie," is the mantra in our churches today ... Over 1800 churches in the metro-east, always expecting blessings along the way instead of expecting to spend eternity with God. No fear of judgement and no fear of God reigns in these "social clubs. Sin is no longer called sin. The truth is unrecognizable.

Fifty-three Christians cared enough to lay their lives down for their brothers and sisters that were being led to their deaths. Four Pastors and representation from St. Peter & Paul church, New Birth, Spirit Life Christian Center, Liberty Christian, Parkway Baptist and New Life Christian Center were ministering to the lost and needy and proclaiming "liberty to the captives." Dr. Jeff and Les, Ted and Adam led the praise and worship. Angela and Karen coordinated the sidewalk counseling. As Hope (less) deathscorts were hovering and swarming and coercing anything warm into the Belly of the Beast.

Five mothers including "Suzy" five months pregnant, left this altar of sacrifice with their unborn babies still ALIVE!

This is history repeating itself The Nazi holocaust liberation, the Iraqi holocaust liberation and the American holocaust liberation. Isaiah 5:7 "He (the Lord) looked for justice, but behold oppression; for righteousness, but behold, a cry for help." True liberty begins in the men whose hearts have been set free by the gospel of Jesus Christ. As the hearts of men are transformed, society itself begins to reflect that change. ~Pastor Flip Benham.

The liberty of not only America, but to the world started at a Church with a godly pastor who was not afraid to stand up and speak out on the great moral issues of the day such as, Liberty vs. tyranny. Freedom, vs. oppression. Today, four thousand children died horrifying deaths at abortion mills all across America and 300,000 pulpits are silent. Today in America, the homosexual juggernaut is running roughshod over America and defiling everything in its path and 300,000 pulpits are silent. Today in America, pornography floods our TVs and computers with its vile filth and 300,000 pulpits are silent. Today Islam has garnered for itself most favored religious status in America. It seeks our subjugation or destruction and guess what, 300,000 pulpits are silent. I think you can see our dilemma in the Church today. It seems the burning issues of the day the Church is concerned about is Sunday's potluck dinner and the announcement of forming a new softball league. For the vast majority of the pastoral leadership in the American Church something is seriously amiss.

There are a few things that we have forgotten. We've forgotten that the role of the minister is to put difference between the holy and profane, between that which is clean and unclean. We've forgotten that success is not determined by nickels and noses, but by how many saints we are equipping to do the actual work of ministry. We have forgotten that we should seek not the praises of men, but the praises that come from God, such as, well done thou good and faithful servant. We have forgotten that if our priority is to please men or to fear men, we have ceased being the faithful servant of Christ. We have also forgotten our rich history of faithful pastors who ended human sacrifice in pagan lands, abolished slavery, and championed the cause of Christ on behalf of the poor, the needy, the disenfranchised, the outcast, and the downtrodden. Have we forgotten? "The only thing necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing". E. Burke

My prayer is that the pastors and the churches they serve will repent of their silence and lack of involvement that has enabled the powers of darkness to savage our land. Let us pray that they will be determined to become shepherds a time like this demands ~Rusty Thomas. Jer. 3:15 "And I will give you shepherds according to My heart, who will feed you with knowledge and understanding".
