WE WOULD NEVER DO THAT.

 

Psalm 106:37-39 “They even sacrificed their sons and their daughters to the demons.  They shed innocent blood, the blood of their sons and daughters. By sacrificing them to the idols of Canaan, they polluted the land with murder. They defiled themselves by their evil deeds, and their love of idols was adultery in the LORD’s sight.”

 

It is Thanksgiving, 2020.  What am I doing talking about demons?  Well, at this season, we are usually thinking of, or are with family.  We all value are family and want what’s best for them.  We try to provide for them.  We shower them with gifts, many of them.  Thinking back on my childhood, we usually received A Christmas gift.  We had stockings stuffed also. They were stuffed with nuts and usually an orange.  Our church also gave everyone an orange at the Christmas service on Christmas day.  That was usually it.  I never entertained the idea that we were poor.

 

We were poor by today’s standard and even by the standard back then; but my parents sent us to a Christian school.  They worked multiple jobs and sacrificed to afford the tuition.  

 

How does that relate to the scripture verses that are written above.  Most Christians that I know are anti-abortion and anti-LGBTQ.  Most are creationists but there are many who are theistic evolutionist to some extent.  Yet, in spite of this 90% of this, Christians nationwide, send their kids to schools that are anti-God, with textbooks based on secular humanism. 

 

Why?  They want their kids to get a great education.  They want their kids to be able to play sports.  They can’t afford Christian schools.  And the worse of all reasons, they want their kids to be a witness.

 

“They sacrificed their sons and daughters to the demons”.

 

While this happens, the church remains silent.  Pastors say NOTHING!  Why?  They don’t want to offend people.  If they saw kids in the church malnourished, do you think, someone would step up and say something?  Today’s kids,in our churches, are be spiritually starved, being fed poison, daily!

 

Woe on us! Woe on Pastors! Woe on the elders and deacons!  We sit in air conditioned, cushioned pews.  We have first rate sound systems with fancy spot lights.  We have built huge altars that we call churches that set empty 6+ days a week, spending thousands of dollars on maintenance.  Thousands, millions of dollars are spent on encouraging and massaging the members.  All the while, our children are being sacrificed to the demons of secular humanism.

 

At this thanksgiving time, please consider and ask ourselves, “Are we really doing what’s best for our kids?”
