“But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman’s hand.” [Ezekiel 33:6]
“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” [Ephesians 6:12]

[1] First Presbyterian Church in New Orleans, Louisiana Hosts Planned Parenthood “Stand for Women” Rally in Church Sanctuary
First Presbyterian Church (Presbyterian Church (PCUSA)) of New Orleans, Louisiana on 7 March 2015 hosted in the church sanctuary Planned Parenthood’s “Stand for Women” rally in support of abortion.
At the rally, city councilwomen LaToya Cantrell and Susan Guidry, along with doctors, student activists, religious leaders and Planned Parenthood leaders all discussed the “benefits” a Planned Parenthood center would provide for the New Orleans community.
YouTube videos from the rally are located here:

The editor notes the sick irony on the “Stand with Louisiana Women!” Tumblr web page announcing the rally that at the top of the web page reads:
“You all up in the Chocolate City, ya 'eard?”
Planned Parenthood, the largest abortion provider in the U.S. was founded by eugenicist Margaret Sanger who spoke of sterilizing those she designated as "unfit," a plan she said would be the “salvation of American civilization.” One of the major groups Sanger considered “unfit” was black Americans.
The website Black Genocide says:
“Minority women constitute only about thirteen percent of the female population (age 15-44) in the United States, but they underwent approximately thirty-six percent of the abortions.
“According to the Alan Guttmacher Institute, black women are more than five times as likely as white women to have an abortion
“On average, 1,876 black babies are aborted every day in the United States.
“This incidence of abortion has resulted in a tremendous loss of life. It has been estimated that since 1973 Black women have had about 16 million abortions. Michael Novak had calculated "Since the number of current living Blacks (in the U.S.) is 36 million, the missing 16 million represents an enormous loss, for without abortion, America's Black community would now number 52 million persons. It would be 36 percent larger than it is. Abortion has swept through the Black community like a scythe, cutting down every fourth member."”

[2] PCUSA Stalls California Korean Church’s Vote to Leave Denomination
An 8 April 2015 The Christian Post article by Michael Gryboski reports that the San Gabriel Presbytery of the Presbyterian Church (PCUSA), a year after the congregation overwhelmingly voted to leave the denomination because of its growing acceptance of homosexuality and homosexual marriage, has not finalized Good Shepherd Presbyterian Church of Rowland Heights, California’s dismissal.
According to the San Gabriel Presbytery ‘s Gracious Dismissal Policy, if seventy-five percent or more of a church congregation votes to be dismissed from the presbytery to join another body, the presbytery is to vote regarding the congregation's dismissal in its next meeting.

[3] Free Church of Scotland Moderator-Elect Says Scotland’s Politicians Are Blind or Too Cowardly to Address Dangers of Islamic Political Theology
An 8 April 2015 Press and Journal article by Cameron Brooks titled “Free Church Minister Clashes with Politicians over Islam” reports that Free Church of Scotland Moderator-Elect the Rev. David Robertson is saying that regarding Scotland’s politicians, that addressing concerns over Islam is more important than dealing with the economy, independence and the National Health Service. Robertson says the politicians are “blind or too cowardly,” to address the dangers of Islam. Robertson continued, saying:
“The subject that dare not speak its name, [which] politicians avoid like the plague, is Islam.
“The narrative is that Islam is the same as Christianity, that Islamic State and others are just fundamentalists who are not really part of the ‘religion of peace’, and that Christians have their own Islamic State equivalents.
“All untrue but the main point is that mainstream Islam does not, and cannot, fit in with the worldview and doctrines of our liberal secularists.”
