Scripture: Exodus 34:11-16

Adoption has great rewards and benefits, but it also has long-term responsibilities with massive penalties for rebellion! Exodus 34:11-16 says, “Observe what I command you this day. Behold, I am driving out from before you the Amorite and the Canaanite and the Hittite and the Perizzite and the Hivite and the Jebusite. Take heed to yourself, lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land where you are going, lest it be a snare in your midst. But you shall destroy their altars, break their sacred pillars, and cut down their wooden images for you shall worship no other god, for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God, lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they play the harlot with their gods and make sacrifice to their gods, and one of them invites you and you eat of his sacrifice, and you take of his daughters for your sons, and his daughters play the harlot with their gods and make your sons play the harlot with their gods.” So much for playing nice with the opposition. There is no playing nice with the opposition. There is no compromise with the opposition. The penalty for becoming the opposition is weak, sick, dead! Once we consort with demons we are set apart for judgment. Rebellion absent of repentance ends in termination! Serving demons means sacrificing innocent blood. Supporting those who champion abortion brings termination. God does not compromise on the issue of shedding innocent blood. ‘Lord send Your glory!’
