IT'S IN THE BIBLE - MOLECH TODAY

   

IT’S IN THE BIBLE – 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. 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 may justify 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.

In 2018 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. In 2 Chronicles 33:1, God tells us that Hezekiah’s son “did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord.” “And he caused his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom [Moloch worship]: also he. . . used enchantments, and used witchcraft, and dealt with a familiar spirit and with wizards: he wrought much evil in the sight of the  Lord, to provoke him to anger” (v. 6).

Sorry Disney lovers, it’s not okay to speak about using magic wands and speaking special “magical” phrases, not even in jest. Your brain doesn’t know the difference, and your words will bring the opposite of what you want into your house and life. It may be a little more work, but it’s God’s will for us to speak of His miraculous doings. There are plenty of those in the Bible. We need to bring them into our everyday speaking.

Hosea 4:6 tells us: “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.” Well, now we know, so we can repent of the things we’ve let our mouths utter, and we can consciously change them.

In Jeremiah 7:31, we are told that good people again turned away from simply following God’s ways. 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 these things and keep supporting them 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, health, and education of our children.

Love, Carolyn
