Cool Testimony from my Assistant Kristen

Yesterday a man knocked on my door and said he was running for judge in the upcoming election. He told me about his qualifications, that he was a Christian and that God was first in his life, which I thought was very bold considering he didn't know my spiritual beliefs at all and he was campaigning for my vote.

I asked him if he had seen "180 Movie". He hadn't, so I gave him a copy.

A few hours later I received a "friend request" from him on Facebook from his campaign account. I accepted his request, and was surprised and delighted to see that on his Wall he had posted the link to "180 Movie" along with the comment "Watch this movie. It's only 33 minutes, but it makes all the sense in the world."

He has 840 Facebook friends, so pray they all watch it!

180 Movie and The Biggest Question DVD Comes to Glenn Beck's Studios

I grabbed a box of 50 “180” Movies and The Biggest Question DVD's, put them in the car, set my GPS and headed towards Irving, TX to GBTV (Glenn Beck’s) studios – just 30 minutes from my home. After telling several people “We’re lost, can you help us find GBTV?” we found someone who could point us to the correct location. Then with DVD’s in hand we walked towards the massive building with a giant green screen on the side wall.

I hadn’t called. I hadn’t made contact with anyone. How would I get in? All these thoughts ran through my mind. And my dear friend Amy was probably thinking She’s out of her mind.

We approached the front entrance, It was obvious at first sight that only those with a badge and a special code could get in, but right as we inched up to the door a GBTV staff member did too. He put his code in and waved his badge at the reader and the door opened, wide!

“We have a free movie for all of the studio staff. Is this the best door for us to go through?” I inquired. He motioned to a different spot while mentioning that there was somewhere else but within the same breath he let us in. Within seconds we found ourselves talking to “Bobby” one of Glenn’s staff members. He took the DVD’s and said that he would “give them to Glenn and see what happens.”

Hours later I received an email from the “Assistant Editor” for “TheBlaze” (Glenn’s Website) saying: “Trish, How are you?...I'd love to see the film. Do you have it available online? If not, can I get a copy? Thanks so much! Billy Hallowell, Faith Editor/Assistant Editor”

Before we left for GBTV I asked Ray and a handful of others to pray for an "open door". That prayer was answered.

Please pray with me that God will use the DVD’s to effectively reach Glenn and his staff. And if you have a spare minute, email Glenn at: me@glennbeck.com and say something to the effect of, “Dear Glenn, Trish from FishWithTrish.com brought “180” DVD’s for you and your staff today. I hope you were able to watch it. www.180movie.com and that you’ll do a program on it. It’s shocking! Sincerely, your name here”

New Reporter Responds to "180"

I just emailed a news station about the "180" Movie. In the email I told them the gist of what "180" is about, explaining to them that it opens with several American College age students who have no idea the identity of Adolf Hitler. I encouraged them to watch it and that Ray Comfort would like to offer it to them formatted for TV at no cost.

I immediately received this response from one of their reporters: "I gotta say I find that very hard to believe. Even a person with virtually no education at all knows Hitler."

To which I just responded back: "For confirmation, I went with a few friends downtown and asked young people the very question that is asked on 180: "Who is Adolf Hitler?"…

One young 20 year old looked at me square in the eye and as serious as a heart attack, he said, "I don't know….uh…was he a Muslim terrorist?"

And I turned to another young man in his twenties and asked the same question, to which he responded, "Well, uh…was he one of the Presidents?"

Sadly, this is what is happening all across America.

"180" is jaw-dropping. It compares the Holocaust to a modern day Holocaust happening in America right now. "180" has nearly 2.5 million views on YouTube. It's worth your time.

After you watch it…please email me your thoughts."

Let's pray that this reporter watches it and shares it with the news staff.

If you haven't taken the time yet to watch "180" do so tonight.

Have a great evening, friends.

John Piper endorses "180" from the Pulpit

Billboard Companies Refuse to Advertise “180”

Contact: Trisha Ramos, 800-437-1893 LOS ANGELES, Nov. 22, 2011 /Christian Newswire/ -- Three of the largest billboard companies in Southern California have declined to promote the pro-life movie "180." Other companies that were approached haven't returned calls. Ray Comfort, the creator of 180movie.com said, "One is owned by a Jewish family. Their spokesperson was very upset that we dared to compare American abortion to the Holocaust. But there are no pictures involved. All we want is to put up text saying: '180movie.com -- award-winning -- free viewing -- one million views in 22 days.' They have the right to refuse, but I think their refusal hasn't been well thought out."

These are the same companies that advertise atheists' mockery of God and the Bible, promote strip clubs and porn conventions.

Comfort added, "If they don't see the comparison of the killing of six million Jews with the slaughter of nearly sixty million Americans through abortion, it's probably because they don't consider a baby in the womb to be human. That's exactly what Hitler did with the Jews. He said that they weren't human, and then he made billions when he killed them and seized their assets. American abortion makes billions through the slaughter of the unborn, and like the Nazi machine it is a well-run money-making industry that has been successful in brainwashing millions into believing that a baby is something other than a baby."

www.180movie.com has created a firestorm with more than 26,000 often angry comments, because it shows eight people who are adamantly pro-abortion changing their minds and becoming pro-life in a matter of seconds, because they were asked one question.

Comfort used http://www.heartchanger.com/ as a rallying point to give away 180,000 DVD's at 100 top U.S. universities in one day in October, and is in the process of giving away hundreds of thousands of copies outside of high schools across the country.

The Los Angeles-based Jewish producer said, "After being turned down by these companies, we decided to ask the churches of America to put 180movie.com on their church signs. We also produced huge '180' window stickers for cars. These take up the whole back window and act as a moving billboard.

"Millions of Americans are being legally slaughtered in our country, but here is something positive we can do. This short movie is changing minds about abortion and saving lives."

Anyone can freely download artwork for billboards in their area, window stickers, and a number of other free items, from www.livingwaters.com/download/180.

Comfort points to the thousands of emails that have poured into his organization, in response to the 33-minute award-winning movie:

"I'm a student at University of Michigan-Flint. I had a conversation with someone who I found out was a Christian and he asked me if I had seen '180' and I told him yes and I loved it. He said that '180' is taking MSU's campus by storm."

"I shared 180 with my pro-abortion literature teacher, and she is now pro-life."

"I'm a senior at a public high school in West Virginia. Because of 180 I was able to turn around the entire class opinion about abortion and by the end of the class 25 of the 25 students and my teacher as well had all raised their hand agreeing that abortion should be illegal."

"I never thought it possible that 33 minutes could have such an impact on my life, but they did. '180' was one of the most (if not THE most) influential movie I have ever seen. It not only changed my mind about abortion, but it also brought me to our Lord Jesus Christ, for I too had hidden myself in denial of God's existence, because of all the sins I have committed."

How many "180" DVD's can be passed out in 30 minutes?

Pro-life Movie-maker Accused of Deception

Contact: Anita Alvarado, heartchanger.com/media.php; Trisha Ramos, 1-800-437-1893

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 14, 2011 /Christian Newswire/ --. A group calling themselves “Phantom Video Productions” has released video footage accusing Ray Comfort, the creator of www.180movie.com of using actors. The award-winning 33-minute documentary has had more than 1.5 million YouTube views in just over six weeks. It shows eight people changing their minds from being pro-abortion to pro-life in a matter of seconds, after being asked one question.

Phantom Video Productions says that they have proof that Comfort used actors, “… she pauses, and then looks around at the cameraman and reads her response directly from the cue card--that is being held up by the person that can be clearly seen in the right-hand lens of her sunglasses, right here [pictured]. It’s as obvious as [expletive] that she’s being prompted and reading scripted lines.”[1]

The accusation has stirred a hornet’s nest of controversy on YouTube’s comments, where more than 24,000 comments have been posted about the movie[2]: “They were obviously actors.”… “I seriously think those people were paid actors”… “They're all paid actors, obviously.” “That Greek guy is just a paid actor.” Another YouTube site has more accusations[3]:

• You can see the blond pig-tails girl with black sunglasses is reading off a cue- card.
• This can be verified from his own video by zooming on her partially reflective glasses...He is the lowest of the low.
• You can make out the guy holding the card in her glass.
• A masterful response, and great job busting Ray on the cue card farce.
Comfort said, “It may look like a cue-card to some, but it’s not. If these people are paid actors, each of them deserves an Oscar.”

ADL Slams “180” Holocaust Movie as “Perverse”

Contact: Trisha Ramos, 800-437-1893

NEW YORK, Nov. 10, 2011 /Christian Newswire/ -- The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) yesterday derided as "cynical and perverse" a movie that unequivocally compares the murder of millions of Jews and others in the Holocaust to women having abortions in the United States, calling the film "one of the most offensive and outrageous abuses of the memory of the Holocaust we have seen in years." The movie has gone viral with just under 1.5 million YouTube views in six weeks.

Ray Comfort, the Jewish creator of www.180movie.com said, "ADL's motto is to fight 'anti-Semitism through programs and services that counteract hatred, prejudice and bigotry.' There's no hatred, prejudice or bigotry in '180.' It's an award-winning movie that opens with 14 people (mainly college students) who have no idea of the identity of Adolf Hitler. Clearly the American education system has failed these kids. This is a movie that educates young people about the horror of the Jewish Holocaust."

Late last month, over 180,000 copies were given away at 100 of America's top universities. This month thousands more were given to students outside Beverly Hills, Hollywood and Burbank High Schools. More than 250,000 copies of the DVD were sold within a month of its release. "ADL should be thanking me. Instead they have come out swinging" Comfort said. "My only explanation is that they haven't thought it out before they rushed to judgment. If anyone should stand up for those who have no voice for themselves, it should be the Jews."

"The film is a perverse attempt to make a case against abortion in America through the cynical abuse of the memory of those killed in the Holocaust," said Abraham H. Foxman, ADL National Director and a Holocaust survivor. "Not only does the film try to assert a moral equivalency between the Holocaust and abortion, but it also brings Jews and Jewish history into the discussion and then calls on its viewers to repent and accept Jesus as their savior. It is, quite frankly, one of the most offensive and outrageous abuses of the memory of the Holocaust we have seen in years."

Comfort says, "With due respect to Mr. Foxman, he speaks of Christianity as if it were some sort of disease, when he should know that the majority of Christians love and support the nation of Israel. We are not the enemy."

Foxman further said "The creators of the film clearly don't get it... No Christian who understands Jewish suffering should resort to inappropriate comparisons to the Holocaust to send a message that abortion is wrong."

Comfort replied to the accusation with "No one but a Holocaust survivor can really understand the horror of what the Jews suffered. But the analogy stands. Hitler justified their murder by saying that Jews weren't human. Abortion advocates do the same by calling a baby a 'fetus' (as do ADL in their press release). Yet at 6 weeks 6 days a baby has a heartbeat, eyes, a mouth and hands. We show actual footage of this in our movie. Science now tells us that at the moment of conception there is DNA, determining the eye-color, hair-color and the height and personality of the person. Destroy that, and you destroy the person."

The Los Angeles-based film maker added, "Germany lawfully slaughtered six million Jews. America has lawfully slaughtered nearly ten times that amount. Also, every time Hitler killed a Jewish family he lined his pockets by seizing their assents -- their paintings, jewelry, cars, homes, and bank account. He also seized the gold from their teeth and the hair from their heads, and it amounted to billions of dollars, financing a third of his war-machine with the blood of the Jews." Comfort maintained that the American abortion industry does the same. He said, "Every time a doctor rips the arms, the legs and the head off a baby, he makes quick and easy money. If you want your 16-week baby killed in the womb, it will cost you $765 (current pricing). But if your baby is 19 weeks, it jumps to $2,165, amounting to billions in the pockets of abortion providers. American abortion is not about 'choice,' it's about money... just like the Holocaust. The analogy is legitimate."

Beverly Hills and Hollywood High School Students Given Controversial Holocaust/Abortion Movie

Contact: Trisha Ramos, 800-437-1893

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 9, 2011 /Christian Newswire/ -- Thousands of students from Hollywood, Burbank, and Beverly Hills High Schools received a free copy of "180" the controversial award-winning movie that has had 1.4 million YouTube views and more than 23,000 comments, in just over one month. The movie opens with 14 people (mainly college students) who have no idea of the identity of Adolf Hitler.

Ray Comfort, the creator of www.180movie.com is Jewish, and says "These young people are ignorant as to perhaps the darkest period of human history -- because the American education system has failed them. We want to change that." The movie not only contains graphic Holocaust footage, but it also compares the Holocaust to American abortion. Late last month, over 180,000 copies were given away at 100 of America's top universities, including UCLA and USC. More than 250,000 copies of the DVD were sold within a month of its release.

Comfort said, "Our plan is to give away hundreds of thousands to American high school students, starting in our own backyard and moving across the country. Students from Beverly Hills, Burbank, and Hollywood High are future actors and leaders in the entertainment industry who will eventually influence a generation." Past students from these schools include Carrie Fisher, Nicolas Cage, John Ritter, Scott Baio, Kirk Douglas, John Wayne and many others. Comfort adds, "Young people are more open to ideas than the older generation, and seeing '180' will almost certainly influence them to become pro-life, for life." One student recently wrote: "I'm a senior at a public high school in West Virginia...Because of '180' I was able to turn around the entire class opinion about abortion and by the end of the class 25 of the 25 students and my teacher as well had all raised their hand agreeing that abortion should be illegal."

An Angry Reaction to 180

Philadelphia Abortion Crime not Murder, Says Movie Producer

Contact: Trisha Ramos, 800-437-1893

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 28, 2011 /Christian Newswire/ -- Ray Comfort, the producer of the viral pro-life movie “180,” in commenting on the alleged murders of seven babies at a Philadelphia abortion clinic, said that the workers crime wasn’t murder. AP reported, October 27th “Two abortion clinic workers pleaded guilty Thursday to third-degree murder in deaths that occurred at a Philadelphia clinic where seven babies were allegedly born alive, then killed with scissors, and a patient died from an overdose of painkillers.”

Comfort said, “These people are accused of ‘performing illegal late-term abortions and killing babies born alive by severing their spinal cords with scissors’ when the workers ‘had no relevant training or license.’ So in essence, their crime wasn’t murder. It was that they weren’t trained to kill unborn babies. The law says that abortions should be safe and legal, and without proper training on how to kill a child, the law is broken. That was their ‘crime.’”
Comfort added that the billion dollar abortion industry in America has been “a powerful and taunting Goliath, but we now have a stone in our sling with ‘180,’ and we are going to see an end to this horror in our nation.” He said that they are receiving thousands of emails and many are saying that their minds have been changed from pro-abortion to pro-life, simply by freely watching the 33-minute documentary at 180movie.com

“I’m a senior at a public high school in West Virginia. This past week in our civics class we were writing essays about laws that we wish would change in America. After seeing this video I choose to do mine on abortion, and how I wished it would be illegal. After I had finished reading my essay, a discussion arose in class (obviously) about how they thought abortion should be a choice, especially if the child is unhealthy or was caused because of rape…Because of 180 I was able to turn around the entire class opinion about abortion and by the end of the class 25 of the 25 students and my teacher as well had all raised their hand agreeing that abortion should be illegal.”

180movie.com has over 20,000 YouTube comments and received more than one million views in 22 days.

"180" Movie Reject: One Student Hands an Open Copy Back to Me. Watch Why...

200,000 Copies of “180” Given Away at 100 Universities

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA A small army of one thousand workers gave away 200,000 copies of the award-winning movie “180” at 100 top universities around the country, in one day this week. To avoid opposition, the day and the location of each of the universities were a highly-guarded secret. The controversial prolife video shows eight people who are adamantly pro-abortion, changing their minds and becoming pro-life in a matter of seconds, because they were asked one question. Within the first month on YouTube http://www.180movie.com/ clocked 1.2 million views, stirred up a hornet’s nest of more than 19,000 comments, and has been called “The Hottest Movie on the Internet.”

The film’s producer, Ray Comfort, said, “People can’t get enough of this because it’s changing minds about the hot-button issue of abortion. It’s not only being watched on line, people are buying it to give away. We have sold more than 150,000 copies in a matter of weeks. One small church purchased 16,800. But this week’s university giveaway was very special, because it put the physical DVD into the hands of the youth of America, and engaged many in healthy dialogue.”

Tony Miano, the coordinator of the massive giveaway said, “Emails have been pouring in from students around the country who not only took the DVD, but took the time to watch it.“ ‎

"I just was on campus and a friend of mine and I watched this video and in a matter of seconds both of us realized how important the topics in this document truly where. I never really put things into focused until I watched this video. I have a lot of questions and now I'm taking the time to seek answers."

“I was given this DVD as I walked to class. I came home, popped it in, and it changed my heart. I got to thinking about every question that was asked and I have always been undecided on abortion, but now I am anti-abortion all the way.”

“Powerful movie. I always told myself I would never have an abortion, but what other women did was their business…I have COMPLETELY changed my mind now. Abortion is murder, it should be illegal.”

“I was handed the 180 DVD while walking to class on my college campus…It made me not only think of the issue in a way I hadn't before, it made me think of the issue to begin with.…Identifying as "pro-life" was one of the last things my thankful heart could commit to. Now that I've watched this simple DVD, I'm finally able to say I'm Pro-life and really mean it!!”

“My professor x-nayed the entire lesson and is playing the DVD for the entire class... She said she got so excited when she saw the DVD. She said that it coincides with what she teaches in class (the class title is ‘the holocaust’)”

Comfort added, “I am so thankful that people are open to change. While there are some who are very angry at us for making this movie, others are very thankful and write to tell us their story.”
"We both [my husband and I] voted for a pro-choice president the last election. After watching this documentary he said to me in tears that he was wrong. We have had our minds changed about who we vote for."

“I was at an abortion clinic on the sidewalk (with my laptop), had two young ladies stop and watch the trailer that is in the special features. Then afterwards they watched the 180 DVD all the way through. One was four month's pregnant, the other was three. They were both going there for an abortion; they were both in tears, hugged my neck and decided to give their babies life and choose adoption instead. I cried too.”

The best-selling author and film producer concluded, “I will not rest as long as the horror of killing babies is a legal reality in our nation. But political change will only come if those who care about the unborn speak up. We created the ‘180 Course’ to help those who care confidentially talk about the subject, in a way that makes sense. Anyone can change someone’s mind about abortion as I did on ‘180,’ if they have a loving heart and if they are willing to learn a few simple principles.” Well-known Christian leaders Randy Alcorn and Kay Arthur also contributed to the course, which is available at http://www.heartchanger.com/

This is just in from one of the staff members at Living Waters (named Mike). Here's what he wrote:

WOW this is awesome fellow servants. I am coming from lunch stopped at a red light in the rain. Lady next to me is honking and motioning for me to roll down my window. She had seen the 180 decal on our back window. She tells me with tears in her eyes...

"Thank you guys so much for putting out that documentary, I am a new Christian. I just watched it yesterday with my children to show them the real side and facts of abortion and we got in a lengthy discussion afterwards. That documentary is changing lives. Thank you so much"

God Bless

Assuming comment from my visit to the abortion clinic

"Why did you just stop this couple having an abortion and then wave them off? Why didn't you offer to to adopt the baby after the lady had it?
Because they probably had a very good reason for wanting an abortion: maybey they had no money, maybey they just knew thhey couldn't cope with the demands of another child. If you make it your business to stop women having abortions, its definitly your business to offer an alternative solution which doesn't involve them keeping the baby.Obviously, since your faith helps you appreaciate the wonder of new life, yuo should be the one to take the baby. You neglected that part of your Christian duty, i am sad to say :( " -Lisa

Lisa, thanks for commenting and for reading my post on my first visit to the abortion clinic. A "very good reason" for wanting an abortion is not having money? Are you kidding me?! So let me rephrase what you are saying, It's okay to murder a baby in the womb because you have no money. Is that right? And, what you are also saying is that, It's okay to murder a baby in the womb because you can't cope with the demands of another child.

These are not good reasons for murder.

Finish this sentence for me, Lisa...."It's okay to kill a baby in the womb when?"

Please comment. I want to hear back from you.

Where do you get the notion that we "waved" them off? Where you there? Did I ever mention that we "waved" them off in my post? We provided an adoption alternative for their child. This is what we do with each person before they go into the clinic (that is if they will allow us). After Guadalupe walked out and jumped in the car, they drove off and didn't want to talk to us. We thought they were going to stop and that we would be able to talk to them further but that wasn't the case.

However, the good news is that they had information in their hands on how to find us, how to get their child adopted, and most importantly how to be reconciled to God.

Have you been reconciled to God, Lisa?

I appreciate you caring about my "Christian duty".... It is also my duty to tell you of the judgment to come.

Have you considered where you will go if tonight was your last?

If you have never thought about where you will go when you die...now is the time to do so. The bible tells us that life is like a vapor. Think about it. Your life appears for a little while and then it's gone.

Where will you spend all eternity when your life here on earth is over?

Think about it. The ultimate statistic is that 33 people out of 33 people die! That means you won't escape death. No one will. And eternity is a long time. In fact, just think, it's forever and never ends. There is no time in eternity.

Have you ever looked at yourself according to how God see's you? If not, here's what to do, evaluate yourself by the 10 Commandments to see how you measure up to God's standard of righteousness. This is what made things clear for me...

Have you ever lied (even once--fibs, white lies, etc.)? Have you ever stolen (the value is irrelevant)? Jesus said, "Whoever looks upon a woman to lust after her, has committed adultery already with her in his heart." Have you ever looked with lust? If you have said "Yes" to these three questions (by your own admission), you are a lying, thieving, adulterer at heart; and we've only looked at three of the Ten Commandments.

The bible gives us surety in the New Testament, "that no fornicator (a person who has sex outside of marriage), unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God." Ephesians 5: 5

Have you put God first in your life? Or have you created a false god to suit yourself; a god you feel comfortable with? If God judges you by that standard will you be innocent or guilty on the Day of Judgment? If you're honest and listen to your conscience you know that you will be guilty, and end up in Hell.

The reality of that should strike terror in your heart!

But wait, Lisa, listen to this...

There is good news.

God Himself made a way for sinners to be forgiven...Listen to this...

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." (John 3:16). Jesus Christ was fully God and fully man and was without sin. He suffered and died on the cross and then He rose from the dead, defeating death. You broke the Law and Jesus paid the fine with His precious blood for sinners! Today, here's what to do, confess your sins to God, repent (turn) from your sins, put your trust in Jesus to save you from eternal damnation, and you will pass from death to life. Only through Christ can God forgive you and grant you the gift of everlasting life.

Turn from your sins today.
