The Born Alive Act was Dead Wrong

Read it and think.

This is a tweet by Greg Abbott about the Born Alive Act, which was put forward by Representative Jeff Leach, and passed by Texas.  Much was made of this ProLife victory that happened years ago. 

Governor Abbott said, "In Texas we support the lives of innocent children.  The Texas House voted 93-1 for the Born Alive Act."  

Jeff Leach is quoted here also, saying "A baby who survives an abortion deserves the full protection of the law and the highest standards of medical care." 

Both Abbott and Leach have been praised by the prolifers and Christians for this and other deeds, being lauded as champions of the preborn.  But these men are two of the chief leaders who are responsible for murder by abortion remaining "legal" in Texas:

  

Greg Abbott personally gave a promise to a dying teenager, abolitionist Jeremiah Thomas (who earnestly called on him to do justice for the children being slain) that he and the Texas Republican Legislature were determined and would abolish abortion in Texas.  Then, Abbott completely broke his word, and never has sought to do what what he promised.

Jeff Leach heard the testimony of hours upon hours from abolitionists in favor of HB896, a bill of complete and immediate abolition of abortion, lasting into the early morning hours of the next day, and singe handedly killed that bill that would have provided equal protection for all preborn children under the law.

These men have perpetuated the homicide of many thousands of children by their compromise and regulatory bills. 

Take this bill mentioned in Abbott's tweet for example:

If a baby survives an attempted abortion and is born alive, then the state says that they have protection.

This is basically the same as saying that you can hire someone to shoot, or strangle, or poison your neighbor in an alley, and the law WILL NOT prosecute you or the hitman.

However, if your neighbor survives that attack, and gets out of the alley alive, then it is illegal to kill them after that.  Furthermore, there still will be no prosecution for the violent crime that you attempted in the alley to commit against your neighbor.  

And the government will depend on the people present (that's you and the assassin) to have enough integrity to follow the decree and not kill the neighbor, but instead report their survival and give them medical assistance.

Absurd and Evil.  They "lie and do not the truth!"  They care about what pleases man and not God.  Their inconsistency and iniquity is showing.  Political officials need to cease to do evil, and learn to do well.  

Consider the Born Alive Act in the light of God's command to rulers in Jeremiah 22:3 "Thus saith the LORD; Execute ye judgment and righteousness, and deliver the spoiled out of the hand of the oppressor: and do no wrong, do no violence to the stranger, the fatherless, nor the widow, neither shed innocent blood in this place." 

The true and living Triune God of the Bible declares, 

"Execute ye judgment and righteousness,"  Did this bill establish equal justice?

"deliver the spoiled out of the hand of the oppressor:"  Unless they are still in the alley (womb)?

"do no wrong,"  So allowing the murder to happen under color of law at first is right?

"do no violence to the stranger, the fatherless, nor the widow,"  This still permits violence to the vulnerable.

"neither shed innocent blood"  The blood of the innocent is freely shed as long as the victim is in the "UNSAFE Place". 

So what is the verdict? "Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord," this legislation was iniquitous, promoting partiality and falsehood, which God hates.

The Born Alive Act was and is Dead Wrong. It is compromise and collaboration with, and thus complicity in, child sacrifice.  Do not support ProLife organizations, legislators, or laws, which leech away justice from the innocent by denying justice and delaying abolition through delivering bills of regulation and partiality as victories.  Be not deceived.  Be not distracted.   

Repent with us.  Abortion must be abolished, not regulated.
