According to Christianheadlines.com online health statistics found abortion was the leading cause of death worldwide in 2022. This makes the fourth consecutive year abortion was the leading cause of death worldwide. Many justify abortion by saying the population is too high. This is a lie according to Elon Musk. Our population is too low and the birth rates are dangerously low.
According to www.wnd.com the pro-life movement needs to be aware of the deception used by the abortion industry making the abortion issue one of “freedom” rather than of every human being’s right to life — to not be unjustly killed. The pro-life movement needs to be ready to confront lies with the truth about what abortion really is: the killing of an innocent and defenseless human being.
According to www.christianheadlines.com abortion advocates are also gaslighting which is manipulation to sow doubt and confusion. They gaslight with false claims that doctors in states with abortion restrictions are not allowed to end a pregnancy to even save a mother’s life. Board-certified OB/GYN Ingrid Skop, MD, responds: “This is just false dialogue. Every state that has put abortion restrictions in place has an exemption for a life-threatening condition for the mother.” Donna Harrison, MD, another board-certified OB/GYN, agrees: “There isn’t a single law in any state that forbids the medical emergency treatment for a pregnant woman or forbids treatment of an ectopic pregnancy. Not one law anywhere.”
It was great to see last year in the Elizabethton Star online poll that 75 percent said yes to the question, “Should the Supreme Court overturn Roe v. Wade?” Theologian Albert Mohler said polls show that the majority of Americans do not favor unrestricted access to abortion which was allowed under Roe and its companion decisions. Only 27 percent of Americans believe abortion should always be legal a Fox News poll found. Americans’ support for Roe and abortion decreased the more they learned about it. Mohler added, “we don’t do morality by polling.” Still, he said, Americans need to understand Roe v. Wade allowed abortion through all nine months of a pregnancy! Hollywood and the media are pro-abortion and don’t care what the majority think.
Pro-Lifers are happy the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and made abortion a states issue. However we are sad that only 14 states have done the right thing and banned abortion. God will bless these 14 pro-life states and bring judgment on the pro-abortion states. In 2023 pro-lifers mourn the loss of over 60 million unborn babies. Abortion is America’s holocaust that began 50 years ago on January 22, 1973. God sees abortion in America as child sacrifice! Abortion is also child slavery because the child is considered the property of their mother. The good news is God will forgive any sin you have committed including abortion when you believe on Jesus as your only Savior who paid the penalty for all your sins on the cross and arose from the dead. Accept Jesus’ free gift of salvation. Rejecting Jesus is the only unforgivable sin!
Protecting life shouldn’t be a divisive issue. Pro-lifers protested peacefully and legally for 50 years. Being pro-life isn’t just a political position, it’s also the Biblical one. For 50 years there has been no justice and mercy for American unborn or pre-born babies. Sadly, millions of American babies have been butchered over 50 years because, “men and women love their own pleasure more than their own kids.”
Sadly in 2023 Americans care far more about their smartphones than their unborn babies. I saw someone at E.T.S.U. holding a sign last summer that said, “My body, My choice.” The scientific fact is the baby inside your body has different DNA and is alive and is not your body. In other words, “The body inside your body is not your body.” “Humans are valuable before they are viable!” I believe God allowed each state to decide the abortion decision so that he can bring judgment on those states who allow abortion. None of the 14 states are on the west or east coast so they will not be destroyed when tidal waves/tsunami hit America’s east and west coast. In the Bible slaves were freed after 49 years and it was called the Jubilee. It’s interesting that the unborn slaves were freed after 49 years of abortion in America at least in some states. Thankfully, Tennessee is one of the 14 states making abortion illegal after Roe was overturned. Only these 14 states can call themselves free states and Christian states because they have made the unborn no longer slaves and no longer the property of their mothers! Jesus is called the Christians’ jubilee and when he raptures us to heaven we will be completely free for eternity! I hope Jesus makes Christians free in 2023!
