When we hear of those who protest war or the death penalty, the premise is usually from a point of practicing lawlessness -- moreso than the genuine ones opposing because of moral conviction.  Go among them -- survey the protestors if you wish.  Ask about "what does and does not constitute murder or neccessary killing"...in those words...and see what responses you get.  

We are on a road to the most horrific slaughter of human life in the history of man...billions will die in the Tribulation and Great Tribulation.  The Scripture points to maybe a little over 1 billion saved out of those 7 years of hell on earth -- only 1 billion out of a currently approaching 7 billion human population.  

If your brother or sister, aunt or uncle dies, here or in Iraq, in uniform or not, it affects you only as much as you are attached to "Family". One, two, or five -- because they are "family", can have horriffic consequences.

 If we should cite 50 million dead in World War II, the young generation could care less.  They (the 50,000,000) are just statistics:  like numbers in a video game...they're meaningless.  If we tell them of  a certain battle in World War I - (July 31–Nov. 10, 1917),  of Passchendaele (the 3rd battle of Ypres) in which as many soldiers drowned in mudslides as they did by enemy bullets, shells, and gas -- near to 600,000 of them -- the answer will be...who cares?  Again, it goes back to 'family".  

We live in a time that 6 out of every 7 people you know will die in the not too distant future.  Perhaps 1 out of those every 6 may believe into Yeshua / Jesus and go to Heaven...the rest (on average hypothetically) are going to eternal damnation.  

On November 7-8 of this year, 2006,  is the 17th of Cheshvan.  The 17th of Cheshvan is the Day in which G-D broke up the Earth's crust and created the seas and oceans...moved tectonic plates and created the great mountain ranges of the earth...and carried the ark away.  In the process, with the exception of 8 souls, G-D annihilated mankind -- with the idea or purpose to start it over again through a righteous one and his small family.

So if we knew the rapture was imminent, but not the precise day or hour, would we really care enough to share the message of Deliverance, and leave the answer behind when we go?  

Or would we really, deep in our heart, only have puffed up in a public manner or way, about how important human life is for us...not because of truly believing these things...but because we were simply doing it for show?

What is the real value of a human life to you?
