Victims of Sexual Abuse:
Satan is not asleep and if we are--he promotes his evil in our very midst to destroy our young people!

We have received much documentation bout this horrid reality. It has hit even personal friends and family. What am I talking about? Sexual Abuse of children and youth in our boarding schools, pathfinder groups and even churches and Sabbath Schools--sometimes by other youth-- but more often by adults, even leaders and people in positions of authority, even pastors. Lives have been wrecked, families devastated and souls lost--even suicides-- all the result of this filthy perversion among us.

We like to think it doesn't and can't happen among us but it can--it does--and it has--and it IS happening. NEVER assume that because a person is 'SDA' that he is immune to Satan's vilest suggestions. And never take for granted that you are either! Only if we are fully surrendered to Jesus--kept by His Grace and under the management of the Holy Spirit can we remain in freedom from sin's contaminating filth--in the world but not of the world.

The rise of this perversion has been phenomenal since the introduction among us of the 'new Theology' teachings that sin cannot be overcome--Friends anyone who dallies with this devil's lie is leaving himself wide open to become the devil's plaything!! In His strength we CAN and MUST overcome and we can be kept!  Php 2:15 "That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world."

I cannot place online the sordid details and display the trail of broken lives-I realize that perverts love to read such details and I will not promote the devil's educational program!-but I urge our people to be close to their children and youth--so close that they can feel able to come to you when something as unmentionable as this happens--and if they do come--listen to them, support them, and have the situation investigated!

If you are a victim, or even an abuser yourself--because most victims go on to become abusers later-- Remember--where there is life there is hope and Mercy still lingers and Jesus can save from the lowest depths and keep you pure. He longs to lift you and heal you, restoring what you have lost. Seek Him personally through prayer and the Bible Promises and keep on until in His Power you can break through to the light.

Ps 40:2 He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings. 3 And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.
