Ecumenism Mars Operation Save America Pro-Life Event in Jackson, Miss
Ecumenism mars Operation Save America pro-life event in Jackson, Miss.
National Director of Priests For Life Father Frank Pavone led the ceremony,...
Despite the courage and sacrifice of scores of committed Christian pro-lifers participating in
Operation Save America's annual national event in Jackson, Mississippi, their brave, worthy and
much-needed efforts to stand against the national sin of child-murder-by-abortion has been spiritually
compromised and dulled by the ecumenism that characterizes Operation Save America events.
The ubiquitous Mr. Frank Pavone, Vatican representative as national director of Priests For Life,
continues to play a prominent role at the annual national events of Operation Save America, actually
leading a memorial service for a dead pre-birth child as part of OSA's planned events in Jackson.
Ecclesiastes 10:10 (KJB) - "If the iron [axe] be blunt, and he do not whet [sharpen] the edge, then must
he put to more strength: but wisdom is profitable to direct." If a sharp spiritual "axe" is not wielded,
then it requires more strength to get the job done, because the labor is not as effective. So it is when
born-again Christians yoke with an apostate religion such as Roman Catholicism.
2 Corinthians 6:14 (KJB) - "Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship
hath righteousness with unrighteousness ? and what communion hath light with darkness ?" The false
religion of Roman Catholicism is "darkness." God's Word says not to have communion with darkness.
The long-term goal of Roman Catholic ecumenism isto co-opt the church of the Living God by leading
her astray into a counterfeit, one-world religion, embracing not only any denomination of Christianity,
but eventually, also Islam, Hinduism, and paganism of every stripe. Many Christians are clueless
as to the danger which Rome represents because they haven't been properly taught by their
spiritual leaders (e.g., pastors, elders), and they haven't learned the lessons from the Bible
and history on their own. Norma McCorvey, herself baptized by Mr. Flip Benham, national director
of OSA a decade or so ago, later converted to Catholicism. She is but one of the more visible of
numerous professing Christians who have been drawn into the satanic embrace of Roman Catholicism.
Roman Catholicism is not a denomination of Christianity. Roman Catholicism is a "Christianized"
form of the ancient pagan religion of historical Babylon.

More Than These: A Call for Reformation
By Mr. Ralph Ovadal, pastor
This book details how Roman Catholic influence and even doctrine has permeated the pro-life movement,
including street-level activist ministries, Christian radio, the pregnancy center networks, and the hearts of
major Christian ministries.
OSA rightly preaches, and strongly, bravely, and publicly witnesses, against the evils
of child-murder-by-abortion, sodomy, and the false relgion of Islam. Pray that OSA
will one day have the courage and faithfulness to Christ to likewise preach against
the evil of the false religion of Roman Catholicism.
"For the word of the LORD is right: and all His works are done in [His] Truth."
Psalm 33:4
While it is true that there are probably born-again Christians who [sadly] make up the ranks of those
who are part of the blasphemous Roman Catholic religion, as at least one reformed minister has said,
they are saved in spite of the teachings of their religion.
"Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." John 3:3 (KJB)
"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
Not of works, lest any man should boast." Ephesians 2:8,9 (KJB)
Saved by grace alone, through faith alone, in the Lord Jesus Christ (Messiah) alone !
formerly Roman Catholic, until Jesus Christ set me free !

Priest Brings Dead Fetus to Jackson, Stages Mock Funeral
Jackson Clarion Ledger A memorial service for an aborted fetus concluded today without the planned
burial in Smith Park. The 11 a.m. service was part of an eight-day protest led by the anti-abortion group, Operation Save America, in an effort to shut down Jackson Women's Health Organization, the state's
last remaining abortion clinic. Counterprotesters showed up toward the end of the hour-long service,
causing tempers to flare. The pro-choice group walked through the recessional with an accordion player
and yelled profanity-laced tirades against the anti-abortion protesters. Sheriff's deputies escorted one
of the counterprotesters out of the park. Frank Pavone, director of Priests for Life,said the fetus,
which is being preserved in a formaldehyde-like solution, will be buried in Alabama in a few months.
It has been used in demonstrations in New York and Columbus, Ohio, he said, and will be in several
more before being buried.

America drew crowds downtown, where they had on display what they say is an aborted child
(Watch Video Clip: Protestors Hold Mock Funeral). National Director of Priests For Life Father
Frank Pavone led the ceremony, that he says is a crucial part in the Pro-Life movement.
"It's important to see the baby," he says. "So many people dismiss abortion in abstract terms."

Roman Catholicism is not Biblical Christianity
Catholics say The Holy Bible lies
BLASPHEMY - The hierarchy of the Roman Catholic Church has published a teaching document
instructing Catholics that some parts of the Bible are not actually true.
Roman Catholicism: The Cult of Mary
Pope Kisses the Koran; OSA burns the Koran, but platforms Catholic priest:
Though Operation Save America apparently burned a copy of Islam's demonic "holy book," the Koran,
OSA nevertheless demonstrated its spiritual blindness to the danger of ecumenical yoking with
Roman Catholicism, by allowing Roman Catholic priest Frank Pavone to actually lead a memorial
service for an aborted child as part of OSA's organized events in Jackson, despite the fact that
Frank Pavone's former superior, the late pope John Paul II, actually kissed the Koran, reportedly,
"as a sign of respect".
The Pope Kissing The Qu'ran
Here is a photo of the Pope at the end of an audience with Patriarch Raphael I of Iraq where
"the Pope bowed to the Muslim holy book the Qu'ran presented to him by the delegation and
kissed it as a sign of respect".

More Than These: A Call for Reformation

A Story Which Needed Telling
An ecumenical epidemic has broken out in America. These days, many evangelical Christians accept Roman Catholics as “brothers and sisters in Christ” and the Roman Catholic Church as a Christian church, albeit with
some unbiblical “doctrinal distinctives.” Pastor Ralph Ovadal believes that the pro-life movement has been
one of the key factors, if not the key factor, in desensitizing Christians to the danger and sin of accepting
the Roman Catholic Church as Christian. In More Than These, Pastor Ovadal begins with the Second Vatican Council of 1962-1965 and documents how the Roman Catholic Church has systematically used the pro-life movement, with the help of Christians, to advance its ecumenical strategy. In the writing of this book, Pastor
Ovadal drew from his own extensive experiences working in virtually every area of the pro-life movement,
beginning in the late 1970s and including the rescue movement. His years spent as a Christian radio and
television program producer and host on a nationwide network provide an added perspective shared by few
people. More Than These is also based on research from a wide range of sources, some of which are
unavailable to all but a relatively small group of pro-life activists.
This book details how Roman Catholic influence and even doctrine has permeated the pro-life movement, including street-level activist ministries, Christian radio, the pregnancy center networks, and the hearts of
major Christian ministries. It documents the damage that such influence has had on the cause of Christ,
including actual stories of Protestants converted to the Roman Catholic Church due to Christians being
involved in pro-life ministry with Catholics. More Than These is an exposé and a history book, but it is so much
more than that. It is a personal story, a testimony, a documentary, a Bible study, and a clarion call for reformation.
The lessons learned from this book should be applied not only to pro-life ministry but also to any and every Christian ministry work. [continues at...

Where did the practices and beliefs of Roman Catholicism come from? In this scholarly classic,
first published over eighty years ago, Alexander Hislop reveals that many Roman Catholic
teachings did not originate with Christ or the Bible, but were adopted from ancient pagan
Babylonian religion, and given Christian names.

How then shall I be saved ?
If the Father is inviting you, pray and ask Him on your knees, with all your heart and soul,
to reveal the Lord Jesus Christ (Yahshua Messiah) to you, saying words to this effect:
"God be merciful to me a sinner, and make me to know and believe in Jesus Christ;
for I see that if His righteousness had not been, or I have not faith in that righteousness,
I am utterly cast away. Lord, I have heard that Thou art a merciful God, and hast ordained
that Thy Son Jesus Christ should be Saviour of the world; and, moreover, that Thou art
willing to bestow Him upon such a poor sinner as I am. And I am a sinner indeed. Lord,
take therefore this opportunity, and magnify Thy grace in the salvation of my soul, through
Thy Son Jesus Christ. Amen." **
