Day 251 - Detestable Ways

Daily Reading:  2 Chronicles 26-29


He burned sacrifices in the Valley of Ben Hinnom and sacrificed his sons in the fire, following the detestable ways of the nations the Lord had driven out before the Israelites.  2 Chronicles 28:3

Footnote: Imagine the monstrous evil of a religion that offers young children as sacrifices. God allowed the nation to be conquered in response to Ahaz's evil practices. Even today the practice hasn't abated. 

The sacrifice of children to the harsh gods of convenience,
                                                economy, and
                                                                                                            whim
continues in sterile medical facilities in numbers that would ASTOUND the wicked Ahaz. 

If we are to allow children to come to CHRIST (Matthew 19:14), we must first allow them to come into the world.

Keep reading -- 115 days left!
