Molech, Ancient God of Child Sacrifices And the Modern Worlds' Abortions
THE HORRORS AND APOSTASY OF MOLECH WORSHIP
Molech was the primary pagan god of child sacrifices. Pagans believed that they would gain wisdom, prosperity and safety by burning their infants alive, as well as other things they considered to have value, as a gift to their God, Molech. Molech is described as a Minotaur. The bottom of the idol was like a potbelly stove. The idol had the head of a bull and the body of a human being with pouches to receive sacrifices on its chest. The bottom of the idol was a furnace, an opening to burn fuels. Animals and infants and other offerings were consumed by flames. The idol would glow red with fire like a foundry or furnace! God condemned anything to do with this horrible pagan god.
Le 18:21 And you may not make any of your children go through the fire as an offering to Molech, and you may not put shame on the name of your God: I am the Lord. (BBE)
God told the Israelite's that it was a shame to the real God for them to give their babies to the fire of Molech. God's people are the children of God, as well as their babies. Satan is the author of death cultures. Satan wants to destroy the seed of mankind and God. Moloch name comes from a root that means king. He could be considered a king among pagan gods. Paganism motivates people to sacrifice their own children through FEAR and SUPERSTITUTION making them afraid that they will suffer unless they sacrifice their precious seed. This is the core of paganism. They stupidly believe that they will gain bounty by burning babies. Unbelievable!
Le 20:1 And the Lord said to Moses, 2 Again, say to the children of Israel, If any man of the children of Israel, or any other man living in Israel, gives his offspring to Molech, he is certainly to be put to death: he is to be stoned by the people of the land; (BBE)
God protected children by giving the maximum penalty in the law for anyone caught doing such a stupid superstitious evil in Israel. God would not tolerate Moloch worship. If God abhorred Molech, any believer in Christ should also hate Molech.
1Ki 11:7 Then did Solomon build a high place for Chemosh the abomination of the Moabites, on the hill that is before Jerusalem, and for Molech the abomination of the children of Ammon. (DBY)
One of the reasons for the divided Kingdom was that Solomon allowed his pagan wives to persuade him not to hate Molech but to tolerate it. God would not bless the nation because of this abuse and paganism. God has numerous reasons to hate paganism, like the worship Molech , but infant murder is the leading one.
2Ki 23:10 And he defiled Topheth, which is in the valley of the sons of Hinnom, that no man might cause his son or his daughter to pass through the fire to Molech. 11 And he abolished the horses that the kings of Judah had appointed to the sun at the entrance of the house of Jehovah, by the chamber of Nathan-melech the chamberlain, which was in the suburbs, and burned the chariots of the sun, with fire. (DBY)
The wonderfully Godly King Josiah destroyed and disabled the shrine to Molech to prevent future child sacrifices. Topheth was the site of the prime Molech sacrifice center. They burned human bodies at this shrine. It became the start of the valley of Hinnom a garbage dump and much of the hellfire story is an outgrowth of this garbage fire valley near Jerusalem. God honored Josiah for his destruction of Molech worship. He saved babies thereby. Josiah also took down the pagan idols of sun worship.
They had horses pull the sun across the horizon as part of sun worship. Sun worship and sacrificing babies to Molech are connected.
Jer 32:35 and they have built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause to pass through the fire their sons and their daughters unto Molech: which I commanded them not, neither came it into my mind, that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin. 36 And now therefore Jehovah, the God of Israel, saith thus concerning this city, whereof ye say, It hath been given over into the hand of the King of Babylon by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence:
One of the main sins that caused the nation of Judah to go into captivity was the child sacrificing to Molech in the Valley of Hinnom. God would not tolerate this evil behavior.
When we abort babies without an extreme medical emergency, God is offended. People are told that abortion is about liberating women from the obligation and danger of pregnancy. Abortion is about liberating women we are told. Society now believes that a woman should be able to abort a baby at anytime during the pregnancy including just days before natural birth and any efforts to limit it or even tighten sanitary standards is anathema. But are these beliefs good for society and women and families? They are not beneficial and our society is deceived just like the superstitious people of the ancient world.
FETUSES ARE HUMAN BEINGS SAYS THE HOLY WORD OF GOD
Are fetuses just clumps of tissue inside a human mother? The Bible says otherwise. God called and formed the prophet Jeremiah while he was just a fetus. See Jer 1:5. Before he was born and saw the light of day God had plans for him. Paul was also first called while still in his mother’s womb. Note Gal 1:15-16. It is obvious that God had planned Paul’s life so that he could be highly trained and educated in both the Jewish and gentile worlds. He could then be a witness to both worlds.
Jer 1:5 Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I hallowed thee, I appointed thee a prophet unto the nations. (DBY)
Ga 1:15 But when God, who set me apart even from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace, (DBY)
Lu 1:41 And it came to pass, as Elizabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit,
42 and cried out with a loud voice and said, Blessed art *thou* amongst women, and blessed the fruit of thy womb.
43 And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
44 For behold, as the voice of thy salutation sounded in my ears, the babe leaped with joy in my womb. (DBY)
Paul became the Apostle to the Gentiles and major author of the New Testament. Note Acts 9:15. God’s Laws also protected fetuses from violence. (Note Exodus 21:22.) John the Baptist and Jesus recognized each other inside their mothers wombs while both were still fetuses. Read about it in Luke 1:40-45. Fetuses are not just tissue, they are humans being at their earliest stages of growth and should be protected by our laws as well. Fetuses can feel pain and smile and even suck their little thumbs. The Devil loves the death of God’s children and celebrates when they are destroyed. We must love life. God says choose life (Deut 30:19) by choosing His Laws and ways. Just as hatred is a kin to murder in Jesus’ expansion of the law to its spiritual meaning, so abortion is a kin to child sacrifice. See sermon on mount Mathew 5.
It is really spiritual warfare. The abortionists do not fully realize what they are doing or whom they are following. They are deceived.
De 30:15 See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil,
16 in that I command thee this day to love Jehovah thy God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his ordinances, that thou mayest live and multiply, and that Jehovah thy God may bless thee in the land whither thou goest to possess it.
It is just and good for society to outlaw certain choices. Choose life over death. The fetuses right to not be killed certainly supersedes the right to not be pregnant. If there is uncertainty about when life begins, the benefit of the doubt should go to preserving life. Abortion is also more dangerous than natural childbirth. This statistic is hidden from the public. Further the stat that 10,000 women died of back-alley abortions is demonstrably untrue. Abortion is a form of gendercide, shrinking the global population of women and in some places at an alarming rate.
THE SHOCKING AND REVEALING HISTORY OF ABORTION
This culture of death is part of the birth of the progressive movement among scholars and elites in America. Euthanasia the killing of usually, the elderly, to avoid pain began to grow 1910 and 20’s in America and so did abortion. Abortion comes from the same perverted progressive philosophy that intellectually supported euthanasia and genocide. Some of the elites deemed certain other people were inferior and not worthy of life. Later Euthanasia began in some European countries as a way to help the elderly avoid pain, but has become in some cases, a way for some people to be rid of elderly parents whose care they consider to be the burden. It can save socialized medicine a ton of resources. This action could also help with a speedier inheritance!
Europeans have made it easier and easier to euthanize their parents. These same core concepts and theories were used by Hitler to help justify the holocaust. The intellectual leadership choose death. This concept was used by his NATIONAL SOCIALIST PARTY (NAZI) to justify murdering millions. This philosophy of death was not just used for antisemitism but also in their minds, for racism as well. Abortion is the greatest Holocaust of all time.
Margret Sanger is quoted as saying, “We do not want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population...” But she did. Oddly enough many of the abortion mills are located in minority neighborhoods to this very day. White women represent 63% of the population and account for 36% of abortions. Black women only represent 13 % of the population and account for about 30% of the abortions! ABORTION is the leading cause of death in the black community! These supposedly elites of the early twentieth century, were serious about reducing the population of those that they considered inferior, or were from disapproved genetic stock, slow mentally, or for other reasons found in the minds of THESE ELITE SOCIALISTS. Needless to say abortion remains the holy grail of the progressive party in America and is still at work. This awful history has been hidden from the public. None of this history will ever be taught in public schools. Progressives have successfully suppressed their true history's negative side.
