Massacre of the Innocents – The Darkness is Deepening in a Land Overshadowed by Abortion —NC Register & Sister Athens
Perversion of Justice
Ah, those who enact unjust statutes, who write oppressive decrees, depriving the needy of judgment, robbing My people’s poor of justice. Making widows their plunder and orphans their prey.
What will you do on the day of punishment, when the storm comes from afar? To whom will you flee for help? Where will you leave your wealth? Lest it sink beneath the captive or fall beneath the slain? For all this, His wrath is not turned back, His hand is still outstretched. Isaiah 10:1-4
Hear the Word of the Lord, Princes of Sodom. Listen to the instruction of our God, people of Gomorrah. What do I care for the multitude of your sacrifices?
The Lord says, I have had enough of whole burnt rams and fat of fatlings; In the blood of calves, lambs and goats, I find no pleasure.
When you come to appear before Me, who asks these things of you? Trample My courts no more. To bring offerings is useless; incense is an abomination to Me. New noon and Sabbath, calling assemblies–festive convocations with wickedness, these I cannot bear. Your new moons and festivals I detest, they weigh Me down, I tire of the load. When you spread out your hands, I will close My eyes to you. Though you pray the more, I will not listen.
Your hands are full of blood. Wash yourselves clean. Put away your misdeeds from before My eyes. Cease doing evil. Learn to do good. Make justice your aim. Redress the wronged, hear the orphans plea, defend the widow. Isaiah 1:10-17
The God of gods, the Lord has spoken and summoned the earth from the rising of the sun to its setting. From Zion, the perfection of beauty, God shines forth.
Our God comes and will not be silent. Devouring fire precedes Him, it rages strongly around Him. He calls to the heavens above and to the earth to judge His people.
“Gather My loyal ones to Me, those who made a Covenant with Me by sacrifice.” The heavens proclaim His righteousness, for God Himself is the Judge.
Not for your sacrifices do I rebuke you, your burnt offerings are always before Me. I will not take a bullock from your house or he-goats from your folds. — I know every bird in the heights, whatever moves in the wild is mine.
To the wicked God says, “Why do you recite My Commandments and profess My Covenant with your mouth? You hate discipline; you cast My Words behind you. If you see a thief, you run with him; with adulterers, you throw in your lot. You give your mouth free reign for evil, you yoke your tongue to deceit. You sit and speak against your brother, slandering your mother’s son.
When you do these things should I be silent?
Do you think that I am like you? I accuse you, I lay out the matter before your eyes.
“Now understand this, you who forgot God, lest I start ripping apart and there be no rescuer. Those who offer praise as a sacrifice honor me. I will let him whose way is steadfast look upon the salvation of God.” Psalm 50:1-6, 8-9, 11, 16-23
