Mt2

King Herod was a evil man! When his rule was threatened by the birth of Jesus, he responded in murderous rage, killing every male child 2 and younger!  There was weeping and great mourning over the loss of innocent lives.....AND THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN!

Today, under "modern leadership", innocent lives are taken daily through abortion!  Technology has enabled us to see, almost at conception, when a child has been given, yet we are quick to call it something other than a child if we are inconvenienced by this new life. Rather than calling this "murderous rage", we call this choice!!!!!  Our country and the world should be weeping, mourning, and refusing to be consoled until it stops.

For 40 years this travesty has continued in our country, but at a far greater level. God help us. According to some Herod's evil likely killed as few as 20 babies (less than Sandy Hook) and most probably did not number in the hundreds.  In single counties in Iowa, according to actual records, over a thousand babies are aborted every year!  There should be weeping and mourning.

Value life today!  Don't call Herod's evil exceptional.  It would be common place in today's culture.

  1. that is a profound application when placed contextually into time and place.

    may God have mercy on us and others in revealing Himself more and more as Savior and LORD that we may faithfully respond in receiving salvation and instruction.
