American Idols: Baal And Molech Today Series

Even the Romans hated the worship of Molech! Most of our information comes from them.

The name of Molech appears early in the Bible. He is in the book of Leviticus as worship to him is strictly forbidden. This means that he was in Canaan before the Exodus. Molech was a fire god who demanded human sacrifice. Moloch had a human shape with a bull’s head. His arms were outstretched and a fire was built within the idol to a great heat. Then the parents would come with their baby and place the baby on the outstretched arms of Moloch and watch: they had to watch without emotion or tear to convince this angry demon god that sacrificing their baby was voluntary. Drums and flutes would be played loudly at the site, to drowned out the tortured cries of the babies.

It makes sense that these two gods, Baal and Molech would coexist. When our having all that sex trying to get Baal to be reborn with Spring, your going to have to have somewhere to put all those extra babies.

The shrine to Molech, there in the valley of Hinnom is the first Planned Parenthood.

The arms of Molech and the wiles of Baal are long indeed and somehow they had seduced, as hard as it is to believe, even the Hebrews who had tasted God’s goodness.

Or maybe its not so hard to believe at all!

This is last weeks People Magazine. There is an interesting article in here that is nearly as heartbreaking as Molech worship.

It talks about the effects of pornography on the internet. Of specific interest was a fake userid that the magazine set up as CR8ZYSUE13. They set it up on AOL and YAHOO! Here are their results (Read directly from the mag p. 72)

“We clicked a box saying we were 18. Then we went surfing. On web browsers and in chat rooms CR8ZYSUE13 was barraged with sexuality in every form. In a “romance” chat room she was propositioned, many with links to sites where anything goes—bestiality, orgies and S&M. ‘Kids are going t osee things they’ve never seen in their lives’ says cyberporn expert Patty Aftab. ‘It’s unbelievable stuff you wouldn’t be able to buy in most porn stores. We need to prepare kids for this.”

I really respect People magazine for at least admitting the problem. But with all due respect to Mrs. Aftab, the expert we do not need to prepare kids for this. We must protect them from this.

Somehow in our world we have managed to combine the worship of Baal and Molech satisfying our sexual appetities at the same time we sacrifice our children.

It’s sick, twisted, and these idols must be torn down.

We worship Baal and call it Playboy or we worship Molech and call it choice.

It’s all the same.

The furtherance of the effect is child molesters moving into neighborhoods with playgrounds and parks. Monsters like this should not be allowed to roam our society freely.

But we worship at the altar of personal choice and watch our children burn in Molech’s outstretched arms.

Old heresies never die, they just come back with new names.

Today in modern English we spell Baal MTV as hip hop artists and their record labels make millions with lyrics that exploit women and glorify violence.
