Dear friends:
Today, September 18, 1998 is a day that will live in infamy.
On this date, the United States Senate failed to override President Clinton's veto of a measure banning the barbaric "partial-birth abortions," or the killing of babies WHILE ACTUALLY BEING BORN by cruelly puncturing their skulls and sucking out their brains. The 64-36 vote in favor of an override left opponents three votes short of
the two-thirds majority needed.
This final Senate ratification now places the entire U.S. government officially and finally in favor of the wholesale murder of innocent babies: The Executive Branch, the Legislative Branch, and the Judicial Branch!
This morning I strongly sensed in my spirit that the vote today was crucial to the withholding, or releasing, of God's final judgment on America. I sense the die is now cast.
A friend reports that he "read just recently that Mother Theresa was reported to have said that the result of continued abortions would be nuclear war." I cannot confirm that, but I do know this truth: The world outside of the grace of Christ is under the condemnation of the Law, which says, "Life shall be for life, eye for eye, tooth
for tooth" (Deuteronomy 19:21, NKJV). This means that if God's Word is true, for every one of the some 40 million murdered babies since the 1973 Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision, there will be a life taken. Every drop of innocent blood will be matched in God's coming judgment on the world. We are near that time.
It is interesting and not coincidental that this tragic abortion vote comes just hours before the Feast of Trumpets, or Rosh HaShannah, closing the Hebrew Jubilee year 5758, an acrostic for "season of Noah," a time when "the earth was filled with violence" (Genesis 6:11). Referring to this time, Jesus said, "As it was in the
days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man" (Luke 17:26).
Listen! I can hear the eerie, screeching sound of the almost-closed door of the ark. The dark, ominous storm clouds are already formed and hanging over the world.
I can hear the trumpet in the distance.
