SPIRITUAL DANGER IN THE RIGHT TO LIFE MOVEMENT (Friday Church News Notes, July 23, 2010, www.wayoflife.org, fbns@wayoflife.org, 866-295-4143 begin_of_the_skype_highlighting 866-295-4143 end_of_the_skype_highlighting) - The spiritual danger in the Right to Life movement lies in its ecumenism. It is typical for Bible believers to be thrown into close association with Roman Catholics and other heretics in their pursuit of the otherwise righteous cause of fighting abortion. A prime example of what can happen is the case of Norma McCorvey, the plaintiff in the 1973 Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion in America. In 1994, while working in the abortion industry and living a lesbian lifestyle, McCorvey was befriended by “evangelical” minister Flip Benham of Operation Rescue. The next year she was baptized by Benham. She became an outspoken opponent of abortion and renounced homosexuality. In her book Won by Love, McCorvey described the moment when she rejected abortion. “I was sitting in O.R.’s offices when I noticed a fetal development poster. The progression was so obvious, the eyes were so sweet. It hurt my heart, just looking at them. I ran outside and finally, it dawned on me. ‘Norma,’ I said to myself, ‘They’re right.’ ... It’s as if blinders just fell off my eyes and I suddenly understood the truth--that’s a baby!” So far, so good, but the problem is that the same Right to Life movement that helped open McCorvey’s eyes to the error of abortion brought her into close association with heretics and as a result she was captured by a deceiving spirit (2 Corinthians 11:1-4, 12-15). Through the instrumentality of Priests for Life, particularly McCorvey’s “dear friend Father Edward Robinson,” she joined the Roman Catholic Church in 1998. She announced, “After many months of prayer, and many worried nights, I am making the joyous announcement today that I have decided to join the mother church of Christianity--by which I of course mean the Roman Catholic Church.” The Bible warns, “mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them” (Rom. 16:17), and, “Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners” (1 Cor. 15:33). It is foolish to disobey God’s Word in the pursuit of good. God’s Word is the divinely authoritative definition of right and wrong, and if I am disobeying God’s Word I am not doing good in God’s eyes no matter how right it might feel or how it might appear before men.

As for 'religion'?
ReplyDeleteSimply, Faith, "the SUBSTANCE of things Hoped for, the EVIDENCE of things not seen" will not create a religion, for those of The Faith have "experienced The Messiah(not just read some words in a book, or uttered a so-called sinner's prayer) and The Power Miracle) that raised Him from among the dead".......
Faith sets one free from religion and this wicked world and allows one to experience "the glorious Liberty of The Children of G-D".......
Faith will not create a "religion".......
Simply, Faith is Family, for what is Our Father and Brothers and Sisters if not Family?
The israelites, a disobedient and gainsaying people had no faith and it was needful for them to be under the authority of a system of religion initiated to enforce the laws that governed them, for they were spiritually bankrupt and loved their own life more than The Life ;-(
They preferred a man(fleshly king) to rule over them rather than The ONE and Only True G-D, Father(Creator) of ALL.......
No different today, for pagan catholicism and her harlot christian daughters have their 'popes', 'bishops', 'priests', 'ministers', etc., all of whom follow the legacy of the pharisee's, those who caused The Messiah to be crucified. And today they yet seek to crucify The Truth, for "they love this world and their own self-life in it" ;-(
However, Truth, even when crucified will always Rise Again!
All Thanks, Praise, and Glory Be Unto Our Father.......
HalleluYAH!
Peace, in spite of the dis-ease(no-peace) that is of this wicked world, for "the WHOLE(not just a portion) world is under the control the evil one" indeed and Truth(1John5:19).......
