    A Beast

    "Sin is the MONSTER we love to deny.

    It can stalk us, bite a slice out of our lives, return again

    and bite again, and even as we bleed and hobble, we

    prefer to believe nothing has happened. That makes

    sin the perfect monster, a maneather that blinds and

    numbs its victims, convincing them that nothing is

    wrong and there is no need to flee, and then consumesthem at its leisure.

    We've all been assailed by this beast, sometimes face-

    to-face, but all to often from a direction we aren't

    prepared to defend, and it's only in recognizing the beast for what it is that we

    can hope to escape at all. In Jesus Christ we are forgiven and empowered to

    overcome sin, but opening the door and tossing the beast kitchen scraps of

    our character is no way to drive it off. Toying with an animal that is actually

    toying with us is a sure way to lose part of ourselves.

    I was watching it happen to some friends of mine the year I began writing The

    Oath. As the rest of us just kept on praising the Lord, loving one another,

    smiling, and trying not to be judgmental, some really good people walked

    stupidly, blindly into the jaws of sin. The tooth marks still show today, in ruined

    marriages and soiled ministries. The rest of us should have said

    something."1,2

    Abortion Is A Beast Among Us

    "Because from inside, from the heart of men, come evil thoughts and unclean pleasures." (Mark 7:21, Bible in Basic

    English)

    Abortion is an ancient sin. The product of a long

    forgotten luciferian oath. Like the fictitious residents of

    Frank Peretti's Hyde River, America also has a hidden

    sin and a deadly secret. Just like something sinister

    was at work in Hyde River, an imaginary and isolatedmining town in the mountains of the Pacific Northwest,

    so is something evil at work in America today. Under

    the cover of darkness, abortion, like a blood thirsty

    beast strikes thousands of times a day, every day,

    taking life in the most chilling and savage fashion

    imaginable. Like the compromised community of Hyde River watched in terror

    as her residents suddenly vanished, so America, privately wondering "who will

    be next", idly watches as women, children and whole families are eaten

    alive by abortion. Yet the more America is pressed for information, the more

    she seems to close ranks, almost as if she has been sworn to secrecy.

    Nevertheless, like Hyde River, when America's secrets are exposed, the true

    extent of the danger will be revealed. And in my opinion, what America will

    discover is something far more deadly than anything she has ever imagined.

    How To Kill A Beast!

    "And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on

    the horse, and against his army" (Revelation 19:19, KJV)

    After 38 years of failed strategies, could it be true thatAmerica, like Steve Benson, Peretti's fictional wildlife

    biologist, has fallen in love with the beast in the

    mirror? Could be it that America no longer has ears to

    hear the wailing and gnashing of teeth from the men

    and women suffering from the guilt and shame of

    abortion? Could it be that America no longer has eyes

    to see beyond the needs of a hedonistic lifestyle that

    religiously and narcissistically serves self? Could it be

    that after the lost lives of over 53 million aborted

    babies, America no longer has a strategy to kill the beast and end

    abortion? Could it be that America no longer has the moral conviction to

    kill the beast that doesn't just stalk its victims, but has the power to turn

    hearts black with decay as it slowly fills their souls with darkness? Could it

    really be that America has taken "The Oath?"

    I Don't Think So!

    And offer the following stratagems to be implemented simultaneously:

    3/3

    Starve The Beast To Death by preaching good tidings unto the

    meek, binding up the brokenhearted, proclaiming liberty to the

    captives, giving sight to the blind, opening the doors of prison to them

    that are bound and hating even the garment spotted by the flesh. This

    will take away the abortion industry's customer base from the ground

    up. (Isaiah 61; Luke 4:18,19; Jude 23).

    Drive A Stake Through The Heart Of The Beast by understandingthe love of money is the root of all evil, confessing we cannot serve

    two (2) masters at the same time and as citizens of this great

    republic, holding our elected representatives accountable in the

    voting booth. This will defund the abortion industry at every level. (1st

    Timothy 6:10; Luke 6:13; Jude 11)

    Cut Off The Head Of The Beast by renewing our commitment to

    Christ and His Word, without apology and without exceptions and

    biblically defining the term person. This will at once, for the first time

    and for all time, secure the civil rights of pre-born children at every

    level of law in the land. (1st Samuel 17:51; Psalms 22:9,10; Galatians

    1:15)

    Brothers, we really need to talk.
