Pro-Life
IS
The Way of Christians
Our
country has been beset by people that seek to use abortion as their
means of denying personal responsibility for their sexual acts of a
promiscuous nature. Not only have they had our Supreme Court rule
abortion as a, ‘Privacy Right,’ but have demanded that Medical
Practitioners abet their abortion needs including the dispensing of
pharmaceuticals created for abortion purposes.
Exodus 21: 22
"If men who are fighting hit a pregnant woman and she gives birth
prematurely but there is no serious injury, the offender must be fined
whatever the woman's husband demands and the court allows. 23 But if there is serious injury, you are to take life for life, 24 eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, 25 burn for burn, wound for wound, bruise for bruise.
As
you can plainly see this Scripture defines a pregnant woman as having
life within her body and goes so far as to allow retribution for injury
(even death) to the extent sustained by the life within her womb.
Psalm 82: 3 Defend the cause weak of the weak and fatherless; maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed. 4 Rescue the weak and needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked
This Scripture speaks of the “fatherless” which can only be referring to a child in the womb whose father’s name is unknown.
Psalms 127: 3 Sons are a heritage from the LORD, children a reward from him.
In performing an abortion those that participate in this horrendous act are aiding the woman in rejecting a gift from God.
Psalm 139: 13 For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb
God created man and saw to
his life within the womb. How can any man deny that a baby in the womb
is not a human life? To say this is to deny the very Word of God!
Jeremiah 1: 5 "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart…
God Himself told Jeremiah
that He knew him ‘before you were born.’ Again, who is any man to deny
God’s Word as being absolute and correct?
Hosea 12: 3 In the womb he grasped his brother's heel; as a man he struggled with God.
Hosea was prophesying the
birth of Jacob who grabbed has brother’s heel in the womb. If not a
person just how would one grasp his brother?
Luke 1: 44As soon as the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy.
Ask yourself, if not a human being, a person with feelings and emotions, how would a being within the womb, “leap for joy?”
There are writings that are
named the ‘Apocalypse of Peter.” These are writings that were considered
to be within our Bibles instead of the Book of Revelation. The words
were written by the apostle Peter and are most on point as to abortion
being sinful. Here is a partial excerpt from his writings:
“Women who have had
abortions are set in a lake formed of blood and gore from all other
punishments, up to their necks. They are also tormented by the spirits
of their unborn children who shoot ‘flashes of fire’ into their eyes.”
Peter goes on to write: “Incidentally, those unborn children are, “delivered to care taking” angels by whom they are educated and “made to grow up.”
This I find to be most
interesting as there are so many that use, “abortion is not mentioned in
the Bible so it must be acceptable.”
Brothers and sisters, this is
a lame argument and one seeking to justify sin. That sin is Murder! The
cold and calculated act of abortion is murder with intent.
It is only by the grace of God
that there is forgiveness for any that sin by ‘confession to God and
repentance to God and from sin.’
Any that consider themselves
to be Christian either condone or support abortion are fooling
themselves but not any type of true Christian.
We have elected men and women
in office that vote in favor of abortion saying, “As an elected
official I cannot let my personal beliefs rule my head.” In a word I
find this type of justification to be “DISGUSTING.” In gaining political
office no man or woman is now capable of changing God’s Word!
Taking everything God has
caused to be written in His Word, our Bible, how can abortion be seen as
anything short of murder? Additionally, when did Christians start
believing that murder is acceptable?
When asked the question,
“when does life begin?’ the answer was, “That is above my pay grade.” If
a true Christian was asked there would be only one answer that is
acceptable with that answer being, life begins even at the moment of
conception as God has said, “I knew you (Jeremiah) before you were
born.”
(Closing prayer)
Father, Almighty God, we come
to You with songs of praise for You in our hearts and in worship of You
as our One True God. There is no other god as only You are God. All
other gods are imaginations of men and women who refuse to see You and
accept Your love.
Lord, we are beset by those
that are justifying the killing of the unborn as their right. We know
that there is no right to murder and we are forced to submit to laws
instilled by a government that is wayward and sinful. Be with us Lord as
we seek to deny the dictates of what we know to be sinful
justifications that are worthy of Your righteous anger.
As
we cannot change the hearts and minds that seek to justify their sinful
acts as being ‘protected by law.’ Father, assist us in stopping this
horror. If we knew how to do this we would but sadly, we do not. If it
is Your will, please enlighten us as to how to stop this murder of
innocents or, in the alternative, enlighten the hearts and minds of
those who embrace these actions and stop them.
We pray these things in the
name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who is One with You and the
Holy Spirit, One God, forever and ever,
Amen, amen and amen.
