The Cypress Times Life Matters

STUPAK-PITTS AMENDMENT PASSES 240 TO 194!

Marjorie Dannenfelser, President of the Susan B. Anthony List a pro-life advocacy group see a major victory in the passing of the Stupak-Pitts Amendment to the Health Care Bill.

Ms. Dannenfelser, writes: 

ROE V WADE AND THE PERSONHOOD AMENDMENT

It has famously been said: “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.” For 36 years pro-life groups and individuals have been fighting to overturn Roe v Wade, the Supreme Court decision in 1973 that legalized abortion in America. It unleashed a holocaust upon this nation that has claimed nearly 50 million human lives. And the prospect of Roe v Wade being overturned today is as unlikely as it has ever been despite the fact that pro-life (or so-called pro-life) politicians have been elected to the highest offices in the land, despite a handful of pro-life judges being appointed to the bench, including the Supreme Court, and despite the countless time and money pro-life individuals have sacrificed in this war against the unborn. Is it time to quit, to throw in the towel, to go quietly into the night thankful that our mothers chose life? May it never be! Rather, new weapons need to be used in this war on abortion.

PERINATAL HOSPICE: HONORING LIFE FROM THE BEGINNING

Faith Ann Nickisch entered the world on September 17th, 2009. On September 22nd, 2009 she entered Heaven. At 5 months intrauterine Faith Ann was diagnosed with a genetic disorder that took her life six short days after birth. The pain and heartache experienced by her parents, Jennifer and Kevin Nickisch, at the death of their daughter can only be fully appreciated by those who have experienced a similar loss. I confess I have not. Nevertheless, when I came across Faith Ann’s obituary in the paper and read it, my heart bled for the family. Yet, the sadness that swept over my spirit was tempered by the apparent faith this family possesses as evident from the obituary. In part it reads: “It was not sure that Faith would make it through the pregnancy. Through lots of support, prayers and the love of God, we were blessed to not only have a live birth, but five full days with our baby girl. Our lives will forever be changed by such a small life with such a desire to meet us down here. We feel blessed and are all better people because of Faith Ann and God’s kindness to share a little piece of Heaven with us.” (Read the obituary here.)

WHY DO PEOPLE REJECT TRUTH?

Why do people reject Jesus? That’s a question those of us who truly love and adore Him ask. The first type of person I’m going to spend time writing about is “The Religious Person.”

REAL LIFE - PT. 2

Why do some in the Church grasp tightly the pre-grace, pre-redemption view of life on earth, even to the point of considering believers as sinful still, maintaining we remain fools, incapable of pleasing our Father?  “Sinful” pertains to nature; “capable of sin” to actions.  They are not the same thing, and to equate them by labeling a redeemed child of the Father as “still sinful” is to deny the change that takes place when one’s sin is washed clean by Christ’s treasured blood.  (Heb. 10:14-18)

A GRANDMOTHER'S HEART

I watched with anticipation as the baby inside my daughter began to grow. I counted the days until I would become a grandmother. I was forty-three, all my children were grown and now my oldest daughter was blessing me with my first grandchild. A plethora of emotions took root inside my heart as her belly grew bigger each day. I was excited, overcome with joy, and tense with fear...

Christmas Around the World

In the Northern Hemisphere
It gets cold this time of year.
Frozen rivers stop their flow;
The ground below covered with snow.

Families gathered together
Sheltered warmly from bad weather
Sharing a meal on Christmas Day
Served in bone china from a tray.

Drinking chocolate hot and steamy
Eating pudding sweet and creamy;
Exchanging gifts 'midst Christmas cheer -
Oh, what a lovely time of year!

In the Southern Hemisphere
Christmas-time is drawing near;
The weather's gone from cold to hot
And wint… Continue

A Short Study on Fallen Angels/Demons

Since the fall of mankind, Satan and the fallen angels have roamed the earth to see whom they could destroy or turn away from God. After Jesus's crucifixion, resurrection and victorious ascension into heaven, their eternal doom has been sealed: they have nothing left to lose. The only way Satan and the demons can take revenge on God and His beloved creatures - us - is by deceiving, stealing and destroying as many human souls as they possibly can in the time left to them.

What are demons?Continue

A Short Study on Angels

(There are many misconceptions about angels and their role and involvement in our lives. Following is a short study on this subject.)

Angelic names: Michael, Gabriel and Apollyon (Abaddon in Hebrew) are the only angels mentioned by name in the Bible. Michael is an extremely powerful archangel. He is one of the chief angelic princes and the protector of the Israeli nation. Gabriel is a messenger angel and Apollyon is the angel of the Abyss and generally believed to be a fallen ange… Continue

The Plan of the Ages (Finale)

Insider Information

Today I have a direct question I would like to ask every one of you. It’s OK if you don’t have an answer for me. I understand the way we have been raised is not to get involved. If we, as good Christian believers, do NOT get involved in what is going on in our nation and around the world right now the chances of our survival will steadily shrink until we will have no chance at all. Complete and total annihilation of our Christian way of life IS coming to an end. Evil… Continue
