HAS SOUTH PARK BECOME PRO-LIFE?

You know we’re living in the last days when comedic parody has become conservative prophecy. The most recent example is South Park’s satirical portrayal of the Christian political commentator, Charlie Kirk (represented by the character ‘Cartman’), where he outlines the logical and legal inconsistency of the abortion lobby in less than ten seconds:

South Park is definitely no friend of Christianity, but it’s impossible to argue with the logic of what Cartman’s character is saying. Even if it is meant to poke fun at him and isn’t meant to be taken seriously.

Life begins at conception, and we all scientifically know that it does. Because whenever one experiences the unintended loss of their unborn child through either accident or illness, there is a sense of enormous grief and loss.

If the folks at South Park are anything to go by, then the cultural tide is turning yet again. And we can truly thank God that the Democrats didn’t win the recent US election.

The writers of South Park seem to understand the issue, and hopefully, it’s only a matter of time before everyone else in society does as well. As the apostle Peter writes:

For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God. For, “All people are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field;
the grass withers and the flowers fall,  but the word of the Lord endures forever.” And this is the word that was preached to you
.1 Peter 1:23-25

IMPRISONED PRO-LIFER URGES AMERICANS TO VOTE AGAINST ‘JEZEBEL SPIRIT’

A pro-life activist reporting to prison for her engagement in an abortion clinic blockade is encouraging Americans to “elect leaders who will stand for justice” and “be the beaming light that you were called to be” as she vows to “preach that Gospel” during her incarceration. She says, ” You cannot let Kamala win”.

Bevelyn Beatty Williams was sentenced to 41 months in federal prison for standing at the entrance of a New York City abortion clinic in November 2020, in what the United States Department of Justice characterized as a violation of the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act, announced in an X post-Tuesday that she was reporting to prison Wednesday. 

Williams is now serving time in prison following an unsuccessful effort to overturn her conviction under the law, which subjects anyone who attempts to interfere with abortions services to federal charges.  

Williams pointed to Kamala Harris’ career as a prosecutor as evidence that she “gets joy” out of prosecuting her political opponents. She also cited her conviction as a project of “a feminist movement” and “a Jezebel spirit in a lot of these women in power,” referring to the President Joe Biden-appointed Judge Jennifer Rochon, who sentenced her. 

Williams told followers that, even though Rochon was “so harsh” at sentencing and treated her “so badly,” she “prayed for her” and was “still praying for her.” She reiterated her claim that the judge “represents every woman that just shouldn’t be in power” because she used “bias and emotion” in her judicial decision.  

“She was ruthless with me,” Williams asserted. Williams summarized Rochon’s message as, “I think you’re a danger to the streets” and a “danger to society.” She characterized her conviction as part of a broader effort by progressive politicians to put “people that they don’t like politically in prison.” 

END TIMES SIGNS: What is playing out here in the USA and in my previous post of a Pro-Life activist in the UK, are Biblical prophesied end times signs. Fortunately, God told us this would happen in the end times. In fact, tribulation will get worse when the Antichrist comes on the scene. Israel and Jerusalem are at the centre of Biblical end times prophecies and a major invasion of Israel is imminent.

THIS TYPE OF FOOLISHNESS WILL END SOON

A British army veteran who served in Afghanistan was found guilty today of praying silently near an abortion clinic in England. 

Adam Smith-Connor breached a Public Spaces Protection Order by this action, according to the ruling at Poole Magistrates Court in the town of Poole near Bournemouth, Dorset, England. The court gave Smith-Connor a conditional discharge, meaning he would be sentenced only if convicted of future offenses within the next two years. But the court also ordered the father of two children to pay prosecution costs amounting to £9,000. ADF International stated that Bournemouth, Christchurch & Poole Council spent £90,000 prosecuting the former soldier for praying, which carried a maximum penalty of £1,000. This is crazy and whoever authorised the expenditure should be sacked.

“Today, the court has decided that certain thoughts — silent thoughts — can be illegal in the United Kingdom,” Smith-Connor said after the court ruling. “That cannot be right. All I did was pray to God, in the privacy of my own mind, and yet I stand convicted as a criminal?”

The court found Smith-Connor guilty of an act of “disapproval of abortion,” though he was only thinking about his son, who had been aborted many years before, according to Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) International.

Smith-Connor had slightly bowed his head and clasped his hands in prayer on a public green in a buffer zone near the abortion facility in Orphir Road, Bournemouth in November 2022. During a confrontation with police officers that he recorded, they asked him, “What is the nature of your prayer?” 

The buffer zone had been previously legalized under a Public Spaces Protection Order enforced on streets near the abortion clinic. The intent of the buffer zone had been to stop pro-life beliefs being expressed near the facility, including offering help or prayers to women in crisis pregnancies, according to a press statement by ADF International. 

Defense attorneys argued that Smith-Connor’s prayerful thoughts, beliefs and opinions were not a crime, especially as he stood peacefully and silently on a public street. He stood behind a tree, spoke to no one, and had his back to the facility. 

Fortunately, Biblical prophecy shows us that the return of Jesus to put an end to this nonsense is near.

CANCEL CULTURE RAMPANT IN AUSTRALIAN UNIVERSITIES

Campus Cancel Culture: There is no such thing as academic freedom and free speech on campus if activists can weaponise a university’s complaints-handling process to harass scholars and students they disagree with. Joanna Howe experienced this first-hand as a law professor at the University of Adelaide She was subject to five investigations in two years. These investigations have been of varying degrees of severity, formality, and length. But they have all been motivated by complaints from individuals who disagree with the substance of her research and advocacy critiquing abortion up to birth.

Professor Joanna Howe reported in The Australian on August 24th, 2024 “I won my legal fight. But there is a wider battle being waged against academic freedom”

“One complaint was from a pro-abortion colleague complaining that my research critiquing abortion was religiously motivated thus bringing down the reputation of the Adelaide Law School. Never mind the fact that I’d never once used religion as the basis for my argument critiquing laws that facilitate abortion up to birth!

Another complaint was from an activist member of the public alleging that my video on the tragic death of Jessica Jane was misleading. Jessica was a baby girl who was unexpectedly born alive after an abortion and left to die on a metal kidney dish for 80 minutes in an empty room. Although my boss acknowledged my video was uncomfortable to watch, she confirmed the accuracy of its contents and its consistency with the coronial report. University of Adelaide Professor of Law Dr Joanna Howe says activists are “seeking to cause trouble” for her at work as a result of sharing her academic research on abortion.

Yet another complaint came in via an email from Western Australian Labor MP Peter Foster to the vice-chancellor. Foster’s problem? Apparently, I’d been traversing the halls of WA parliament spruiking a research report that purported to be the views of the university. It’s a pity Foster didn’t bother to read the report’s first footnote, which made it patently clear the views therein were the author’s alone.

Just before Christmas another investigation was initiated: this one prompted by an avalanche of complaints by TikTok activists claiming I had misrepresented facts on abortion and that I shamed women who got abortions. I had done no such thing but that investigation hung over my head, like a cloud, all through the summer holidays.

Finally on January 24, less than two hours after I’d received an email clearing me of the fourth investigation, I received another email, from a different department of the university, opening a new investigation into research misconduct. This one alleged plagiarism and misrepresentation of facts and was prompted by a complaint from a pro-abortion activist with a TikTok account dedicated to attacking me.

This investigation was by far the most serious of those I had endured. It was formal, dragged out over months, and an independent investigator was appointed. When the investigator’s report cleared me of any potential breach of the Australian Code for Responsible Research, I breathed a sigh of relief, assuming it was over.

But the university had other ideas, imposing “corrective actions”: a mandatory requirement that I complete an anti-bias course within 30 days and ordering me to have a formal discussion with my line manager about my research.

Making things 100 times worse, the university then wrote a letter to the TikTok troll, failing to mention that I had been cleared of any breach of the Australian Code for Responsible Research. Instead, the university threw me under the bus; writing to the toll that corrective actions had been imposed.

Predictably, the TikTok troll released the letter online and a torrent of online abuse ensued. I was accused by all and sundry of being guilty of plagiarism and misrepresentation of facts, and that the university had ordered me to unpublish my research. Of course, none of this was true but the university’s own letter had made it seem like it might be.

I appealed three times to senior management and pointed out that the university was in breach of its own policies by imposing these corrective actions on me. My appeals were rejected out of hand and no reasons were given.

The 30 days passed and I refused to submit to the corrective actions. Instead, I fought back, taking my case to the Fair Work Commission asking for an urgent resolution to the dispute.

The university caved during conciliation and I won my case. The corrective actions were removed and a process has now been agreed to that will protect my academic freedom.

This is a significant victory for my academic freedom but this saga has exposed how dangerous it is for academics who dare take on controversial research.

I have written to Universities Australia chair David Lloyd, demanding that a new process be adopted across the higher education sector to address the problem of vexatious and bad faith complaints.

Although Australian universities protect academic freedom and freedom of speech in enterprise bargaining agreements, and through specific policies and procedures, the interaction of these protections with other policies and procedures of universities can result in academic freedom being undermined or circumvented altogether.

I am requesting that Universities Australia introduce a new, sector-wide requirement to mandatorily dismiss complaints that are made vexatiously or in bad faith. I am also requesting that universities only investigate complaints about the conduct of research if they are made by a person who is a member of the academic staff of the university, a person of good standing in Australia’s academic research community, or a person directly affected by the alleged misconduct.

In short, this reform ensures that trolls and activists cannot weaponize university complaint mechanisms against people they disagree with.

The rise of cancel culture, increasing political polarisation and the pressure to protect students from uncomfortable ideas they deem offensive have the potential to seriously erode academic freedom and freedom of speech in our universities.

I know this first-hand and I’ve won my legal fight. But this battle is bigger than me and we need institutional-wide reform to ensure the robust protection of academic freedom and free speech for scholars and students on campus.

This is just another end-times sign that Jesus warned Christians will endure in the time before He returns to restore righteousness and usher in His Millennial Kingdom. Go to http://www.millennialkingdom.net for information on the thousand-year reign that is next on God’s agenda for planet Earth.

5-YEAR PRISON SENTENCE FOR PRO-LIFE ACTIVIST

Lawmakers, legal experts, and analysts are decrying the nearly five-year prison sentence levied on pro-life activist, Lauren Handy as an example of the weaponization of the federal government against citizens with disfavoured political views.

“Today’s outrageous 57-month sentence for a progressive pro-life activist is a stark reminder: Biden’s DOJ is fully weaponized against pro-life American citizens, and they are using the FACE Act to do it,” said Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas) in a statement following Handy’s sentence. “House Republicans should defund the DOJ weaponization, repeal the FACE Act, and stand up for the freedoms that we campaign on.”

Dobbs reversed Roe in the Supreme Court. There is no right to abortion in America. So why are we now dealing with this conspiracy against rights charge? It makes no sense at all.”

Family Research Council President Tony Perkins further juxtaposed the prosecution of the pro-lifers with the anti-Israel protestors occupying college campuses across the country.

“You just need to go back a couple of days to look [at] what was happening on some of these college campuses, Columbia University, where they’re breaking into buildings, occupying buildings, destroying property, and at most get a slap on the wrist or maybe expelled from school, not looking at five years in prison for peacefully protesting and advocating for the protection of the unborn,” he observed. “[I]f this does not show how the Biden administration has weaponized the law and the federal enforcement through the Department of Justice, I don’t know what does.”

What this prison sentence does show is we are in the end-times persecution of Christians prophesied in the Bible that occurs before Jesus’ second coming to Earth. Moreover, that persecution will escalate to tribulation even great tribulation, and martyrdom not just 5-year prison sentences.

Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake. And then many will fall away, and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased the love of many will grow cold.Matthew 24:9-12

Thank goodness Jesus followed this warning with the following message:

But the one who endures to the end will be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” Matthew 24:13-14

MARCH FOR LIFE 2024

Thousands gathered for the 51st annual March for Life in Washington DC. This is an encouraging sign and hopefully most of the faces you see in this picture will be among those that are raptured at Jesus’ second coming in the foreseeable future. However, Jesus told us in advance that before His second coming to rescue the Saints the persecution of Christians will be intense. It will be a time of tribulation that escalates to great tribulation.

Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake. And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold.Matthew 24:9-12

Let us make sure we are amongst those who endure until the end proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

But the one who endures to the end will be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” Matthew 24:13

37 COUNTRIES SIGN PLEDGE TO UPHOLD PRO-LIFE, PRO-FAMILY POLICIES BUT NOT ONE WESTERN COUNTRY

The number of countries expressing support for a document stating that “there is no international right to abortion” continues to expand as nations around the world work to implement policies consistent with its mandate to make the family the bedrock of society. Lawmakers, pro-life activists, and representatives of governments worldwide gathered recently on Capitol Hill to commemorate the 2nd anniversary of the signing of the Geneva Consensus Declaration on Promoting Women’s Health and Strengthening the Family, which declares that “there is no international right to abortion.” The United States was one of the countries that first signed the document on Oct. 22, 2020, although it later withdrew support after President Joe Biden took office. The document’s name reflects that it was crafted at the 2020 World Health Assembly, which was slated to take place in Switzerland until the coronavirus pandemic forced the event to be held virtually.

Signatories to the Geneva Consensus Declaration include Bahrain, Belarus, Benin, Brazil, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, DRC, Congo, Djibouti, Egypt, Eswatini, Gambia, Georgia, Guatemala, Haiti, Hungary, Indonesia, Iraq, Kenya, Kuwait, Libya, Nauru, Niger, Oman, Pakistan, Paraguay, Poland, Qatar, Russian Federation, Saudi Arabia, Senegal, South Sudan, Sudan, Uganda, UAE, Zambia.

Not one Western nation is on the list of signatories. Countries that were founded on Judaeo-Christian values. All of these nations are beginning to experience God’s judgment and it will only escalate as they continue to exorcise God from the lives of their nations.

The Institute for Women’s Health (IWH) hosted the ceremony featuring U.S. lawmakers and diplomats from nations that have signed the Geneva Consensus Declaration discussing the efforts made by their countries to improve health outcomes for women and girls while rejecting the idea that abortion constitutes a form of women’s healthcare. The IWH is a non-profit organization that works to “advocate for the health of women throughout every phase of life.” IWH President Valerie Huber spoke in front of flags representing each of the countries that have signed the agreement.

One of the flagpoles behind Huber did not have a flag attached to it and Huber indicated that “We’ve just learned this morning that another country has already taken that particular flagpole.” She announced that Kazakhstan had become the 37th nation to sign onto the Geneva Consensus Declaration.

Earlier this year, the World Health Organization called for the decriminalization of abortion worldwide, describing it as “lifesaving care” and “a crucial part of health care.”

Lifesaving care” except for the baby that is being sacrificed. If only they realized that by rejecting God and doing what is evil they are facing the dreadful wrath of God that will be poured out with the seven trumpet judgments (Revelation 8) and seven bowl judgments (Revelation 16) described in the Book of Revelation.

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Claiming to be wise, they became fools and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.
Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! For this reason, God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.
And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done. They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, and malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and maliciousness. They are gossips, slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, foolish, faithless, heartless, and ruthless. Though they know God’s righteous decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them.
Romans 1:18-32

Note well, Jesus and the prophets told us that in the last days before God’s wrath is poured out on an unrepentant world, people will reject the truth that God judged the world with the worldwide flood of Noah’s day and yet dead things buried all over the world even fossil fuels are proof that the flood occurred.

Knowing this first of all, that scoffers will come in the last days with scoffing, following their own sinful desires. They will say, “Where is the promise of his coming? For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all things are continuing as they were from the beginning of creation.” For they deliberately overlook this fact, that the heavens existed long ago, and the earth was formed out of water and through water by the word of God, and that by means of these the world that then existed was deluged with water and perished. But by the same word the heavens and earth that now exist are stored up for fire, being kept until the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly.2 Peter 3:3-7

GOD’S TIMING IS PERFECT

The Christian actor and executive producer, Kirk Cameron recently appeared on CBN’s “Faith vs. Culture,” where he spoke about “Lifemark,” a movie chronicling the true story of a teenage boy unexpectedly contacted by his birth mother, who gave him up for adoption 18 years earlier. The film debuts as a Fathom Event in theaters nationwide September 9-15.

Cameron described the movie from filmmaking duo Alex and Stephen Kendrick as the brothers’ “best one yet.” The “Growing Pains” star last worked with the Kendricks in 2008, when “Fireproof” hit theaters.

The timing of the debut of “Lifemark” is certainly noteworthy, I would suggest Kirk Cameron was God-led, given the pro-life film’s premiere is coming just a few months after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled to overturn the precedent established in 1973 by its landmark case Roe v. Wade, granting nationwide legal cover to abortion access.

“This is a movie that’s coming out an unbelievably providential moment in history,” Cameron told CBN show co-hosts Dan Andros and Billy Hallowell. “Who would have thought that Roe v. Wade would be gone? Let’s say that again: Roe v. Wade is gone. Holy smokes! And now here’s a movie coming on the heels of that Supreme Court decision that celebrates the value of life in the womb and the beauty of adoption.”

Telling the story of “Lifemark,” which details the last-minute decision of an 18-year-old girl seconds away from abortion stopping the procedure to choose adoption instead, was personally important to Cameron because he and his wife have four adopted children themselves — two of whom have, like the character in the movie, met their birth mothers.

God is at work in believers’ lives. He will use you just as he is using Kirk Cameron just get in step with Him.

Listen to the many God stories that Kirk relates in this video. Moreover, they are in the upcoming film. Stories like this change people’s lives bringing them to a knowledge of God and His goodness.

SHEEP AND GOAT NATIONS

Guatemalan President Alejandro Giammattei announced his intention to make Guatemala Latin America’s pro-life capital during a speech at the Willard Hotel in Washington, D.C., last week. Giammattei delivered remarks at an event hosted by the Institute for Women’s Health, a pro-life organization founded by former Trump administration Department of Health and Human Services official Valerie Huber, and the International Human Rights Group. 

Guatemala
Members of the Catholic and Evangelical churches and conservative sectors participate in a demonstration against abortion in Guatemala City on Sept. 2, 2018, as the Congress is scheduled to vote on September 4, 2018, a bill to further criminalize abortion. Guatemala only allows abortions in cases where the mother’s life is deemed to be in danger. 

As noted in a statement from the Institute for Women’s Health, Giammattei was not invited to President Joe Biden’s Democracy Summit, where leaders from the world’s democracies gathered: “Guatemala was not invited to take part in the Summit, despite being a democratic nation. Alfonso Aguilar, president of the International Human Rights Group, suggested that ideological differences were likely a significant reason for the country’s omission since Guatemala is unapologetically pro-life.”

In his speech at the Institute for Women’s Health event, Giammattei elaborated on his passion for the pro-life movement and announced that Guatemala would be declared the pro-life capital of Ibero-America on Mar. 9, 2022: “Every individual deserves to have their lives protected, from conception to natural death. … It is totally false that abortion is a human right. Any effort to try to impose abortion in a country is undue interference in international affairs.”

Alejandro Giammattei

“We seek to protect life and to prevent interference,” he added. “We do not approve of abortion because of my faith but also my profession as a medical doctor. Life should be protected from conception.”

It is wonderful to be able to put up posts like this that show us there are sheep nations in the world. Those that hold to God’s values.

When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on his glorious throne. Before Him will be gathered all the nations, and he will separate people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.Matthew 24:12-14

LAST DAYS PROPHESIED EVENTS

YouTube bans LifeSiteNews, removes all of the website’s Pro-Life Videos

Amazon has removed a conservative author’s book, Ryan T. Anderson’s, “When Harry Became Sally from the web store. The best-selling book about the transgender movement was removed without offering Anderson any notice or explanation.

Ryan T. Anderson, president of the Ethics and Public Policy Center, discovered Sunday his book, “When Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Movement,” had been removed from the web store.

Target removes Abigail Shrier’s book critical of Transgender Agenda: Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing Our Daughters

As Big Tech continues its efforts to censor conservative voices, YouTube has banned the website LifeSiteNews from its popular video-sharing platform and removed all of its pro-life videos. 

This isn’t a temporary ban; every single one of our videos is completely gone,” the website’s staff wrote. “Thankfully, we have backups of all our videos, but this means hundreds of thousands of people have lost access to our truth-telling content.”

LifeSite tells CBN News, “We have faced increasing censorship from YouTube in the last three months. They flagged several of our factual videos on the COVID-19 vaccine as violations of their Terms of Service. As a result, we were given two strikes and suspended for multiple weeks, unable to post any new content. We were informed at that time that if another violation occurred within 90 days, we would be removed permanently.” 

YouTube suspended the website over a video titled “Catholic Christmas traditions to instill faith in your kids.” The video also was also tagged with a “medical misinformation” stamp before YouTube removed the video. 

In a statement to CBN News, LifeSite’s Marketing Director Rebekah Roberts said, “The truth is, we’ve been anticipating this for some time. YouTube and other tech titans are simply not interested in allowing anyone to dissent from their state-approved, liberal, totalitarian ideology. Fortunately, we’ve already taken pre-emptive measures to ensure the truth will continue to reach the ears of those most in need of it in these dictatorial times. We are active on various other platforms like Gab, Telegram, and Rumble, and encourage others to join us there.” 

Jesus gave us due warning as to what is ahead as the world increasingly rejects God and all He commands. The wrath of God will be poured out on an unbelieving world prior to Jesus second coming to rule and reign on this earth for 1000 years.

Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake. And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end will be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come. Matthew 24:9-14
