Innocent Blood

Summary: Countries and people who shed innocent blood will not be held guiltless.
Deuteronomy 21:1 If one be found slain in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee to possess it, lying in the field, and it be not known who hath slain him:
2 Then thy elders and thy judges shall come forth, and they shall measure unto the cities which are round about him that is slain:
3 And it shall be, that the city which is next unto the slain man, even the elders of that city shall take an heifer, which hath not been wrought with, and which hath not drawn in the yoke;
4 And the elders of that city shall bring down the heifer unto a rough valley, which is neither eared nor sown, and shall strike off the heifer's neck there in the valley:
5 And the priests the sons of Levi shall come near; for them the LORD thy God hath chosen to minister unto him, and to bless in the name of the LORD; and by their word shall every controversy and every stroke be tried:
6 And all the elders of that city, that are next unto the slain man, shall wash their hands over the heifer that is beheaded in the valley:
7 And they shall answer and say, Our hands have not shed this blood, neither have our eyes seen it.
8 Be merciful, O LORD, unto thy people Israel, whom thou hast redeemed, and lay not innocent blood unto thy people of Israel's charge. And the blood shall be forgiven them.
9 So shalt thou put away the guilt of innocent blood from among you, when thou shalt do that which is right in the sight of the LORD.
There is no more innocent blood than that of the unborn. In this passage, the murderer is not known and there was a sacrifice that could be done to cleanse the land of innocent blood.
In the case of the unborn, we cannot claim ignorance. There is no sacrifice for this except repentance and repeal of Roe v. Wade and abolition of abortion. If you vote for someone who is pro-abortion your hands are not innocent. You will be held accountable for every child aborted at the BEMA or the Great White Throne. Their fingers will point to you. Your hands helped shed innocent blood.
If you have had an abortion or have performed or assisted in one there is mercy at the throne of God through Christ. Repent and cease from the practice. Come to Christ for the forgiveness of all of your sins and you shall find mercy and peace.
Isaiah 1:18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
19 If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:
20 But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.
He was speaking to the nation. Abolition of abortion may be the only thing that will save the nation from destruction. Oh that this year would be the year of deliverance for the unborn and America. Maranatha!
