# IT’S IN THE BIBLE (2) – MOLECH
TODAY
The evil god, Molech, (Moloch),
required child sacrifice from those who worshipped him. In Old Testament times,
cultures all around God’s people worshipped Molech, and so did some of the
Israelites surrender their children to his fiery arms. God said don’t do this: “And
thou shalt not let any of thy seed pass through the fire to Molech” (Lev.
18:21). Child sacrifice, including killing a child before birth, is not
justified in the Bible. God’s Word says children are a blessing, but our
actions say we don’t believe it. We’ve come up with all kinds of “reasonable”
rebuttals as to why we aren’t carrying out God’s will concerning children.
Good
Christians and non-Christians alike have been duped by the media and society
into thinking acceptable answers to why abort, are things like: “I’m not ready
to be a mother,” I’m not ready to have a family,” “I’m not sure I even love
this person,” “I can’t afford to have a child right now,” and so many other answers
that sounded so right-on. We are
responsible for our actions, but I think that with abortion, we have been
cleverly manipulated away from the truth and tricked by the spirit of Molech in
our societies, to think it’s really okay.
I still believe rape or a life-threatening
situation for the mother justifies an abortion, but that’s about it.
I don’t blame the people
who let themselves get talked into abortions, but I do blame those who did the subversive
manipulating and those who let it slide. We need to repent.
Abortion is just one
aspect of child sacrifice to Baal. We’ve seen virgin sacrifice all through
history, in Mesopotamia, Africa, Mayan, and
Inca cultures, and it is practiced today throughout the world, in Europe as
well as in the United States, at the highest levels.
Just recently in Arkansas,
a sculpture of the Ten Commandments was destroyed and replaced with a statue of
Moloch. Moloch’s image is a hollow brazen figure, with the head of an ox with
big horns, and outstretched human arms. It was
heated red-hot by fire from within, and the little ones placed in its
arms to be slowly burned, while to prevent their parents from hearing their
dying cries, the sacrificing priests beat drums.
Moloch was the god of the
Ammonites and Phoenicians. This same god was known as Saturn in Carthage, which
was founded in the 9th century BC by the Phoenician city of Tyre.
Carthage is in Tunisia (just across from Italy). Both the god Moloch and the
god Saturn represented the planet Saturn, which was regarded by the Phoenician-Semetic nations as a kakodaimonos (evil spirit) to be appeased by human sacrifice. This child
sacrificing practice was carried over into Italy and to Rome. If you want to
know more about the practices centering around Moloch
and the history, there is an excellent source: a free book online by Charles
Rollin called The Ancient History of
The Egyptians, Carthaginians, Assyrians, Babylonians, Medes And Persians,
Macedonians And Grecians.
In Leviticus where it says
not to let any child pass through the fire to Molech, it also says: “Thou shalt
not lie with mankind, as with womankind:
it is abomination. Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before
a beast to lie down thereto: it is
confusion” (Lev. 18:22-23). And what does God say is the result of these
actions: “The land is defiled and the
land itself vomiteth out her inhabitants” (v.25). People just want to be loved and to do the right things,
but we’ve been tricked into doing things that are unnatural, by demons and
demon-inspired, and demon-possessed people. Hosea 4:6 tells us:
“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.” Now, I am giving some of you new knowledge you didn’t have before, from
the Bible, God’s book of Life. God is a merciful,
loving God and He will take us back if we repent and come back to Him.
In Jeremiah 7:31 we are
told that the people once again turned from God. They “have built the high
places in the valley of Hinnom, to burn their sons and daughters in the fire;
which I commanded them not.” The next few chapters go on to say what the result
was, and again, the land suffered, the animals and vegetation suffered. “How
long shall the land mourn, and the herbs of every field wither, for the
wickedness of them that dwell therein? The beasts are consumed, and the birds; Many pastors have destroyed my
vineyard, they have trodden my portion under foot, they have made my pleasant
portion a desolate wilderness. They have made it desolate, and being desolate
it mourneth unto me; the whole land is made desolate
because no man layeth it to heart” (Jer. 12:4,10-11).
The sacrifice of human unborn,
babies, children and adults is A BIG DEAL! People are horrified by what’s
happening on the earth to animals, trees, the weather, and other humans. The
sacrifice of so many children sends the message of death to every living creation on earth, under the earth, and in the sea.
If mankind is willing to sacrifice his own progeny, then how can the rest of creation respond?
All creation on earth is under the care of the humanity that lives here. Think
about it.
BUT GOD! We need to repent
for what we’ve done and what we’ve allowed. God forgives ALL our sins,
including murder, and He is willing to give us a new start. And heal our land.
2 Chronicles 7:14 says: “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and
pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from
heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”
We need to take a close
look at what we’ve done and what we’ve supported, because those who are pushing
abortion and keep supporting it, are bowing to the modern-day Moloch. Moloch is
a horrible demon, with a voracious appetite for the innocent young ones.
Let’s take a stand against
this evil living power; fight it; and take it down. Let’s support new families
and do what we can, including prayer for the protection and health of the
children.
Love, Carolyn
