Psalm 106:34–42 

“They did not destroy the peoples,
As the LORD commanded them,
But they mingled with the nations
And learned their practices,
And served their idols,
Which became a snare to them.
They even sacrificed their sons and their daughters to the demons,
And shed innocent blood,
The blood of their sons and their daughters,
Whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan;
And the land was polluted with the blood.
Thus they became unclean in their practices,
And played the harlot in their deeds.
Therefore the anger of the LORD was kindled against His people,
And He abhorred His inheritance.
Then He gave them into the hand of the nations,
And those who hated them ruled over them.
Their enemies also oppressed them,
And they were subdued under their power.”

This episode of Real Truth for Today with Pastor Jeff Schreve examines the biblical account of Israel’s disobedience and the devastating consequences of embracing the practices of the surrounding nations. Pastor Jeff focuses especially on child sacrifice in the worship of Molech, drawing a comparison to the modern issue of abortion. He discusses the seriousness of sin, the biblical consequences of rejecting God, and the need for Christians to stand firmly on Scripture and pray for America.

The program also emphasizes an important message of forgiveness and redemption: no matter how terrible a person’s past sins may be, the blood of Jesus is sufficient to forgive those who turn to Christ in genuine repentance and faith. Later, Pastor Jeff discusses cultural issues, the WNBA, biblical morality, and the importance of Christians knowing Scripture and applying it to the culture around them.
