Hand Made gods! Acts 19:24-26

“A silversmith named Demetrius, who made silver shrines of Artemis, brough in a lot of business for the craftsmen there. He called them together with the workers in related trades, and said; ‘You know my friends, that they receive a good income from the business and you see this fellow Paul has convinced and led astray large numbers of people here in Ephesus and in particularly the whole province of Asia. He says that gods made with hands are no gods at all.’ Commentary: Always follow the money! The Idol makers had no problem with Paul’s evangelism until their idol shop sales dropped due to all the Idol worshippers converting to Christ! Remember truth will always cost you something because the Prince of Truth gave his all on an ugly cruel Cross for you! Jesus said I am the truth! The opposite of truth are lies! A woman has a right to kill her baby in the womb? Truth or a lie? Life is the most important gift from God we have! All our laws crafted are for the purpose of protecting life! From the Ten Commandments to the speed limit sign on the block where you live! A culture that disrespects the laws will not continue on for very long because anarchy and a complete breakdown of law and order will follow! God gave us his law to protect us! When we could not follow the law God still did in sending his Son as the perfect sacrifice fulfilling the law paying the penalty of death for our transgressions! Then raising his Son up from death on the third day to conquer the last enemy of all men ever born and that is death itself! No one can raise you up from death except God himself! He has power over death that no mortal can ever achieve! Death is a hand made god! We did that all by ourselves! We achieved it against life itself and every provision for life God made for us! He created us in his image! In his likeness! However man chose to live unlike God! In opposition to him! Abortion is in opposition to life! What drives abortion is money! Take the money away and abortion would end today! Paul realized that he had to risk everything to save the Idol worshippers of Asia! Even if he had to give his life to save life! But it was a voluntary choice he made where no baby in the womb has a choice! We must choose life for that child until it reaches the age of accountability to make it’s own choices! We must choose life even if it costs us our life to do so! That is what God did for us! James & Hamsa Sasse. IndiaJesusLovesYou.com
