Child Sacrifice for a Society's "Well-Being" Is from Ancient Times

“Archaeologists in Peru have unearthed what is believed to be the largest single mass child sacrifice in history. The bodies of 227 victims, aged between five and 14, were found near the coastal town of Huanchaco, north of Peru's capital Lima. The children were believed to have been sacrificed over 500 years ago.

"The discovery comes barely a year after 200 child victims of human sacrifice were found at two other sites in the country. Archaeologists told AFP news agency that some of the bodies in this latest collection still had hair and skin when they were dug up.

"The children show signs of being killed during wet weather, and were buried facing the sea, meaning they were probably sacrificed to appease the Chimú's gods.” (See https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-49495167)

Child sacrifice was also practiced among the ancient Incas. And the ancient North African city-state of Carthage is said to have sacrificed 500 children on one occasion.

It was also practiced by apostate Israelites, becoming entrenched among the Israelites in general after the rule of the Judean kings, Ahaz and Manasseh, who gave impetus to child sacrifice when they sacrificed their own children.

Today, human sacrifice of babies yet in their mothers’ wombs occurs. “U.S. Abortions [( through surgical and medical methods)] in 2017: ~862,320 (Guttmacher Institute)….

“[It] is important not to overlook the number of children killed by chemical abortions . . . [P]harmacy experts project that about 14 million chemical abortions occur in the United States each year, providing a projected total of well in excess of 610 million chemical abortions between 1965 and 2009.”

Induced abortion where “the sole purpose . . . is to avoid the birth of an unwanted child is an act of high crime in the sight of God.” (See Insight on the Scriptures, [Watchtower Bible and Tract Society of New York: 1988] vol. 1, p. 29.) Those who commit it and those who defend it are bloodguilty in God’s sight. Those who are unrepentant of their bloodguilt make themselves liable to God’s wrath.

The Bible in Romans 1:28-32 gives this warning against those who are emboldened to practice/defend ungodliness: “Just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them over to a disapproved mental state, to do the things not fitting. And they were filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, and badness, being full of envy, MURDER [emphasis mine], strife, deceit, and malice, being whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, schemers of what is harmful, disobedient to parents, without understanding, false to agreements, HAVING NO NATURAL AFFECTION, AND MERCILESS. Although these know full well the righteous decree of God—that those who practice such things are deserving of death — they not only keep on doing them but also approve of those practicing them.”

True Christians are no part of the world. We stay away from politics that in one way or another involves a politicians’ supporters — no matter the “party” to which they adhere — in violations of God’s laws and principles.

Mass child sacrifice discovery may be largest in Peru

Jehovah-- not Politicians -- Protects Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses

 "In last week's Watchtower [are] found a few paragraphs of interest. In paragraphs 15-17 it mentioned the brothers and sisters of the Nazi era and their faithfulness. Interesting that this should be in that issue, as it was 75 years ago, 1945, to the month that WWII ended and [JWs] were freed from Nazi persecution. The JV book [(Jehovah's Witnesses -- Proclaimers of God's Kingdom (1993))] said, “The following year, 1946, the brothers in Germany arranged for a convention in Nuremberg. They were granted the use of the Zeppelinwiese, Hitler’s former parade grounds . . . The final day of that convention proved to be one when sentences were to be announced at the war-crimes trials there in Nuremberg . . . [JWs] saw the hand of Jehovah in what was taking place. At the very time that men [(viz., 24 of the most important political and military leaders of the Third Reich)] representing a regime that had tried to exterminate them were being sentenced [-- 12 sentenced to death, 7 sentenced to prison from 10 years to life, 3 acquitted, and 2 not charged --], Jehovah’s Witnesses were meeting to worship Jehovah at the place where Hitler had put on some of his most spectacular displays of Nazi power....

"In the 1980’s in Israel a well known and extremely controversial figure, Meir Kahane [(see photo below)] was active in Israeli and American news. Kahane was an American born Israeli Orthodox rabbi, writer, and ultra-orthodox politician who served in the Knesset. He had militant views and was an influence in far-right political groups today in Israel. Back in 1968 he was a co-founder of the JDL, Jewish Defense League. He was militant in his religious and political views from top to bottom. He inspired much violence.

"In the 80’s while he was in Israel, a missionary who had been a Brooklyn Bethelite, . . . recounted [that] Kahane who was in the news a lot, said of Jehovah’s Witnesses that, ‘he would push [them] into the sea.’ Yet just a few years afterwards in 1990 in New York he was assassinated by a naturalized Egyptian. God's people are still there [in Israel] and growing due to Jehovah’s blessing. How about that?

"[One of JWs] on the Branch committee . . . recalled that one evening at the Telaviv [sic; should read "Tel Aviv"] Bethel, Kahane was the guest speaker at a Haradi demonstration across the street saying that “the building [(the Branch Office for JWs in Israel)] should be burnt down on it’s inhabitants.""

Now, where is Kahane? Murdered. And what about Israeli JWs whom Kahane wanted to see burned alive? Stronger than ever before!
