Forty-two million babies have been murdered through abortion since 1973. America’s holocaust is currently seven times larger than Nazi Germany’s. The methods by which these children are murdered are both gruesome and disturbing. A picture of an aborted child will speak for itself. Most are torn apart by powerful suction or dismembered by sharp knives. The Bible makes it clear that the unborn are human beings (Ps 139:13–14; Job 31:15; Jer 1:5; Luke 1:44) and as Christians we have the responsibility to help those in need (Matt. 25:31–46). Who could be more in need than these helpless, voiceless, and innocent children?
There are many things one can do to help end this holocaust within our land. And that is why I am writing this, to let you know of the Christian’s responsibility to these children. Thousands of babies continue to die daily as a constant reminder of the lack of soldiers standing up for and fighting for their lives. I am letting you know of an organization which has put together a free package of information and resources for those wanting to begin in this outreach. They are non-profit, all-volunteer, and they sell absolutely nothing. Their address is: Baysis of Life, P.O. Box 106, Lapaz, Ind. 46537. If you truly want to begin in this outreach, simply write them and request their “free anti-abortion action pack”.
Please take this matter to prayer and share this need with other Christians. Read Proverbs 24:11–12 and Matthew 25:40. May God (YHWH) bless you in all you do! If you have any questions e-mail me at indianadd@yahoo.com (note that it may take me a while to respond though).
Thank you for your time,

Are the Jewish arguments against Christianity any good? Is Jesus Christ the promised Messiah? Were early Christian doctrines derived from paganism? Is the New Testament historically reliable? Was Jesus God?
The new book, A Zeal For God Not According to Knowledge (iUniverse, Inc., 715 pp.), refutes all standard Jewish arguments against Christianity. This book specifically replies against such critics of Christianity as Samuel Levine, Michael Drazin, Tovia Singer, and Hyam Maccoby. All those influenced by the reasoning of Darrell Conder, formerly of Commonwealth Publishing, should read this book. It includes a comprehensive table of contents, the careful citation of sources through footnotes, a standard bibliography, and a very basic index. The author has an M.A. and B.A. in history, and a B.A. in philosophy, which helps to ensure quality scholarship and careful writing.
When using credit cards, order from the iUniverse.com website for $37.95 (soft cover) or $47.95 (hard cover) plus approximately $5.68 for shipping and handling. When using checks or money orders ($40 for the soft cover, $50 for the hard cover, shipping included), order from: Eric V. Snow, at 20 Oak Hollow, Suite 260, Southfield, MI 48393.

Send Us Your News!Believe it
or not, publication editors are not people who automatically “know
what’s going on”. The only way we know about significant events
is by somebody telling us, by reading a publication or by asking various
groups what they are planning. We simply do not have time to contact numerous
groups before each issue to get their current news. We receive a lot of
publications, but cannot read all of them. Many groups do not have a publication. |
