3 Holy Innocents Saved From Rockford Equivalent of King Herod
I cannot think of a more appropriate story to post on this day when we celebrate the feast of the Holy Innocents. Herod killed only about 20 young males under the age of 2. Given his track record of murder this made barely a wave. The Emperor Augustus supposedly said it was safer to be Herod's pig (hus) than his son (huios).
The abortion industry has become the modern equivalent of King Herod with their willingness to kill as many unborn as they can. 3200+ unborn a day are being murdered. & with the way many animals have more protection than the unborn not much has changed other than the methods.
Three Christmas miracles at Rockford killing center on Broadway
The Victory of the Christ Child Over Sin, Satan, and the Culture of Death in Rockford
Just as Herod slaughtered countless innocent children in his attempt to wipe out God, life, and love and hold onto his place in this passing world - so Rockford's abortion mill spent the Christmas holiday in the fashion of Herod by killing ten of God's children.
The Glory of the Lord will be revealed. (Is 40:5)
At this same killing center a few short hours before Christmas in Rockford over 50 followers of Jesus Christ, like the shepherds and wise men, "went in haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the infant lying in the manger." These people came because they love the Christ child and to pray and sing Christmas carols for every child ever killed at this place of death in the heart of our city.
On this cold and windy morning at a building where over 50,000 children have been killed the power and grace of Christmas was experienced in the hearts of at least three young families. As the beautiful sound of Christmas carols was filling the air three mothers chose life for their children! When all three mothers entered the killing center parking lot they heard the sound of people praising "The news of great joy, today a Savior is born for us, Christ the Lord."
The "truth and grace" of these Christmas carols touched the hearts of these mothers. One young woman stayed in her car with tears in her eyes but the Lord "turned her mourning into joy" as she quickly left this "valley of tears" in Rockford.
For countless Christmases yet to come three families will experience the life and joy that always comes when we respond to the grace and love of Jesus Christ.
And as long as children are killed at the Northern Illinois Woman's Center in Rockford Christians will not only pray at the manger of Jesus we will also "Stand by the cross of Jesus" until we all see the final and eternal victory, in the fullness of time, of the child born to a Virgin over those who reject God and destroy life.
