STAND FOR LIFE
It’s time to stand for life like we never have before. Are you so grieved that New York and Delaware have passed bills to abort babies right up to birth? It’s hard to believe we have come to this in our great nation. Vermont is considering a bill that allows sex selection abortions up to nine months. And other states are following.
Please stand up and be a voice in your state. How can we allow murder to carry on around us and still say silent? We must face the fact that abortion is nothing less than murder.
Did you read the article by Randy Alcorn in the latest Above Rubies called IS THE UNBORN PART OF THE MOTHER’S BODY? He clearly shows that the baby in the womb is a separate person to the mother. It is not just a part of her. He or she is a separate human being with a different genetic code, different DNA, different fingerprints and on and on. Read this article again and encourage your children to read it so they understand the truth.
We could ask ourselves the question: when Jonah landed in the whale’s belly, was he then part of the whale because he was inside the whale? No, he was still a completely different person. He was still Jonah, not a whale!
How encouraging that our president stands for life. Did you thank and praise God when he spoke these words in his SOTO address?
“There could be no greater contrast to the beautiful image of a mother holding her infant child than the chilling displays our nation saw in recent days. Lawmakers in New York cheered with delight upon the passage of legislation that would allow a baby to be ripped from the mother’s womb moments before birth. These are living, feeling, beautiful babies who will never get the chance to share their love and dreams with the world. And then, we had the case of the governor of Virginia where he basically stated he would execute a baby after birth.”
He continued . . . “To defend the dignity of every person, I am asking the Congress to pass legislation to prohibit the late-term abortion of children who can feel pain in the mother’s womb. Let us work together to build a culture that cherishes innocent life. And let us reaffirm a fundamental truth: all children – born and unborn – are made in the holy image of God.”
Our president is prepared to boldly stand for life in the face of ridicule and opposition? It’s the least we can do too.
