Abby Johnson Thinks that Abortion should be Safe for Women
Abby Johnson is an acclaimed leader in the ProLife Movement today. She was the director of the largest Planned Parenthood in the Nation (located in Texas) before her "conversion" to becoming ProLife some years ago. The newly released movie, Unplanned, is a dramatic portrayal of her story with the hopes to expose the evil of the abortion industry. She has been an influential voice in regards to ProLife pregnancy centers, ProLife organizations, ProLife legislation, and a very large portion of those who consider themselves ProLife.
I submit that it would be wise (a required duty of all Christians) to consider what she has to say, and weigh it according to truth.
"Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world." (1 John 4:1)
"And Paul and Silas...who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews. These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so." (Acts 17:10-11)
"Prove all things; hold fast that which is good." (1 Thessalonians 5:21)
"Hold fast the form of sound words...in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus." (2 Timothy 1:13)
In 2016, the U.S. Supreme Court shot down a ProLife measure to make abortion facilities follow the same standard as true medical facilities, Abby, who first and foremost calls herself ProWoman, had this to say to her followers on Facebook:
ABBY JOHNSON, ProWoman, ProBaby, ProLife
My comments regarding the Supreme Court's decision today.
The Supreme Court has made a dangerous decision for the hundreds of thousands of women who enter these unregulated, unsanitary, unsafe facilities every year. To require a facility performing invasive, medical procedures on a woman to meet the standards of an ambulatory surgical center is common sense. We can now see the true motive of the abortion industry...
It is not safety, it is simply "access" at any cost.
It is dangerous to allow abortion facilities to be less safe than similar ambulatory centers. As a former Planned Parenthood director myself, and as someone who knows the ins and outs of the industry, I can't say that I'm surprised that abortion proponents are trying to put profit before care for women. I can say, however, that women deserve the best care and I'm saddened by the decision rendered today. Indeed, this is a misstep in the rights of women.
Women have been treated as second class citizens when it comes to the basic standards of health care for far too long. It is time for ALL women to demand better treatment and better regulations. We deserve much better than the Supreme Court has given us today. We won't stop until that is exactly what we have received.
It's not over, friends."
My wife, Deana, read her post and right away wrote the following comment in response!
DEANA, Abolitionist of Human Abortion
Let's think this through righteously! Please.
Abortion is NOT healthcare. Abortion is homicide! The very women Abby is fighting to protect, those 'hundreds of thousands of women who enter these unregulated, unsanitary, unsafe abortion facilities every year' are walking into these death camps to pay a hitman with a medical license to murder their baby!
Come on, guys! And they are doing so voluntarily (except for the few that are being held in prostitution or under-aged girls being forced, etc.). These women are NOT the victims of unsanitary medical procedures...their children, who are brutally torn in pieces during the unsanitary procedures ARE!
Let's just keep that fact really PROMINENT, shall we?
These women whom Abby states 'deserve the best care' are guilty of premeditated bloodshed. It is that, plain and simple! Do you really think that Auschwitz had any real concern for cleanliness and health standards in the camps that housed the Jews? No, and neither did the German Supreme Court! They were pro-death with one agenda: kill the unwanted Jews.
Planned Parenthood and our own Supreme Court are also pro-death with one agenda: kill the unwanted babies. The sickening difference between the German death camps and the ones protected in our nation is that those being murdered are ushered in by their own parents.
I do care for these women. I plead with them every week as I stand outside of the killing centers. I use God's word to speak truth with a passion that desires their repentance. I want more than anything that they would be spared God's promised judgment to those who shed innocent blood. I do care for those running headlong to destruction (most of them with rebellious fists raised up to their Creator), and rejoice when they fear the LORD and flee evil!
["Open thy mouth for the dumb in the cause of all such as are appointed unto destruction.
Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and needy." Proverbs 31:8-9]
But dear Christian, do not be deceived! Not once did Abby's post even mention a baby--you know, a baby, THE SURE VICTIM in every abortion--sanitary or unsanitary. We must wake up to this holocaust and treat it as the great evil that it is today. And we must do so with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Abortion is our greatest national sin. The number of the slain each year is more than all the American casualties in all the wars of our history COMBINED.
["Are ye not then partial in yourselves, and are become judges of evil thoughts? ...If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well: But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors." James 2:4, 8-9]
Abortion will be abolished when Christians repent! We must repent of our apathy, our tolerance, our worldly thinking, our gross neglect of our preborn neighbor, our silence, and our indifference! And what must follow a Godly repentance is righteous action! We must stand up for the vulnerable, for the fatherless, for those who cannot speak up for themselves, and for those being drawn away to their death.
["If thou forbear to deliver them that are drawn unto death, and those that are ready to be slain;
If thou sayest, Behold, we knew it not; doth not he that pondereth the heart consider it? and he that keepeth thy soul, doth not he know it? and shall not he render to every man according to his works." Proverbs 24:11-12]
Please do what you can to help those women who are pregnant in difficult situations--please stand with them and support them in their decision to do what is right--BUT NOT TO THE NEGLECT of the over 3,500 babies being killed each and every day by the will of their parents!
Dear church, what are you doing for THOSE mothers and THOSE babies? THOSE mothers are not calling for help and they are not entering the doors of the crisis pregnancy centers--they are boldly walking into the murder mills, money in hand, to pay a professional to kill THOSE babies.
["Cursed be he that taketh reward to slay an innocent person. And all the people shall say, Amen." Deuteronomy 27:25]
In her Facebook response, Abby said that these specific women are being treated as 'second class citizens'. No, Abby, Let's not use emotional rhetoric to distort the truth and promote a ministry. This is not and has never been about woman's rights. These specific women are treating their precious babies worse than our own government would punish the most heinous of criminals.
Stop muddying the waters, ABBY!"
I agree with my wife's response!
When mothers procuring the murder of their children are portrayed as the victim, when in actuality it is their dead, discarded child that has been poisoned and/or torn to pieces (at their mother's approval), then of course it seems unloving to prosecute and criminalize women who have had abortions!
Take a step back and think about that statement in the light of Scripture! And remember that God Himself has "magnified [His] word above all [His] name" (Psalm 138:2).
"These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, an heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, a false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren." (Proverbs 6:16-19)
"Thou art become guilty in thy blood that thou hast shed; and hast defiled thyself in thine idols which thou hast made." (Ezekiel 22:4)
To say otherwise is heresy!
And that is exactly what the teachings of Abby Johnson has given birth to--a perversion of God's standard! Emotional rhetoric which distorts God's word! As Christians, it is what God emphatically declares that we should hold fast to--and nothing else. Abby Johnson is a practicing Roman Catholic and has repeatedly stated her beliefs to be anti-Christian! And many, many Christians either follow blindly, or choose to turn a blind eye to the truth, in order to rally around those who are influential and pragmatic in their approach to "the issue" of life!
But God is quite clear when it comes to the shedding of innocent blood and His command to seek justice for the fatherless!
Abortion is MURDER.
Murder is never safe for the victim.
It does not improve justice to campaign for the safety of the perpetrator.
Abortion must be abolished.
Murder isn't Supposed to be Safe
For quite some time, the ProAbortion crowd has held up hangers and said, "Never again will we go back to when women had to use hangers! Abortion needs to be SAFE!" They talk about how hundreds of thousands of women died because of unsafe abortions when it wasn't allowed to kill preborn humans (Of course, they are often using numbers that were supplied by Bernard Nathanson, who later said he had fabricated the number, but let's go on). They claim that if abortion becomes illegal again, some women will still choose to do it, and will resort to dangerous methods. So they demand that abortion must remain legal so it can be SAFE.
The ProLife Movement has also put a lot of focus on trying to make abortion SAFE. Some examples of legislative requirements that ProLife laws in this area include:
-Wider hallways and doorways so that in emergencies, a gurney can be rolled in to help mothers.
-Brighter lighting, cleaner instruments and operating areas, sinks in which to wash.
-Inspections of facilities to make sure they are up to medical standards.
-Admitting privileges for the abortionist at a hospital close enough to get women to quickly.
This is all, from the standpoint of the ProLife Establishment, a proper and good thing.
But there is a problem. Both groups in this are seeking the safety of mothers in abortions.
What about the innocent child, who is UNSAFE, whether or not the procedure is done in a filthy shack or a sanitized facility? With a hanger or a cannula?
Abortion is MURDER. Shouldn't we be more intent on the safety and lives of the true victims?
It is a failure to love our preborn neighbors as ourselves - We are to follow the second greatest commandment, not violate it.
It is a failure to secure true treatment - We need to treat the preborn like who they are and abortion like what it is.
It is a failure to establish equity - All humans should be given equal protection under the law from being murdered.
MURDER is not supposed to be safe.
Murder is never safe for the victim, NOR SHOULD it be safe for the perpetrator.
To fail to protect the most vulnerable and innocent who are being spoiled,
while seeking to make sure that those who are oppressing them are well taken care of,
is to do wrong, and flies in the face of Jeremiah 22:3, which says, "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."
This is why, while so many in our society, including both ProAbort and ProLife individuals, keep talking about and making laws about safety for women, the abolitionists continue to demand that Abortion must be abolished.

Consider a comparison with the crime of mugging:
"Since some muggers will continue to mug people no matter what the law says, and since mugging is not always safe for the mugger, we should make it legal to mug people, to make sure that people can mug other people safely." That is FOOLISHNESS. It is also a failure.

It is a failure to secure true treatment - We need to treat the preborn like who they are and abortion like what it is.

Let us not be guilty of partiality:

Let Not Man Prevail - Asa's Prayer
The prayer of King Asa of Judah (made earlier in his reign), has long been a favorite of mine. I have studied it, taught through it, exhorted others, and implemented its truth into my own prayers and perspective.
Two years ago on this day, I posted that prayer on Facebook in response to the way that the abolition bills across the nation, bills written to bring an immediate stop to the murder of babies under "color" of law and establishing equal protection under the law, were being opposed by THOSE WHO CLAIM TO BE AGAINST ABORTION. It was first opposed in 2016 when SB1118 was put forth in Oklahoma to abolish abortion in that state, and was squelched by the ProLife Senate leadership and the largest ProLife organization in the nation.
This outright opposition to righteous bills, all the while supporting legislation that regulates murder, has continued each year since. And each year God continues to expose the compromise and complicity of those who have long been hailed as the "champions" of the preborn.
Each year, more people are awakened to their responsibility to love their preborn neighbors as they do themselves, call for justice, and plead for truth. Each year "the voice as strong as thunder" is heard louder and in more sectors of the Union.
Here is Asa's prayer.
"And Asa cried unto the LORD his God, and said,
"LORD, it is nothing with thee to help, whether with many, or with them that have no power: help us, O LORD our God; for we rest on thee, and in thy name we go against this multitude. O LORD, thou art our God; let not man prevail against thee." (II Chronicles 14:11)
I love how Asa calls on the Lord:
- in recognizing that God is not limited by the number or strength of those who engage in His name.
- by aligning with God, as "our God", relying on Him, as belonging to Him.
- by acknowledging full dependence upon the Lord and full confidence in His will.
- by applying the course of which states duty is ours--results are God's / obey and watch what God will do.
- and by seeking the glory of God, not his own.
Asa did not pray, "Let not our enemies prevail over us."
He said "Let not man prevail against THEE!"
And so I echo,
"Lord, let not man prevail against Thee!" Whether that man be Pagan, Papist, Protestant, Pragmatist or Pietist! And whether that man be ProMurder or ProLife! Let justice be done!
Oh Father, the fatherless are slain without cause!
"They break in pieces thy people, O LORD, and afflict thine heritage!"
We are "a people laden with iniquity!"
So many of those who worship Thee don't even realize that their "hands are full of blood!"
"Judgment is turned away backward!"
"Justice standeth afar off!"
"Truth is fallen in the streets!"
"Equity cannot enter!"
"They have healed the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly!"
They say "Peace, peace; when there is no peace!"
"They hate him that rebuketh in the gate!"
"They abhor him that speaketh uprightly!"
They "condemn the innocent blood" and "contemn God!"
Lord, glorify Your name! Shew Yourself strong!
"Let not man prevail against Thee!"
CONVICT the hearts of the hard, the apathetic, the depraved indifferent, and the silent! Provoke the conscience of those guilty of complicity, collaboration, compromise, cowardice, and complacency!
"Let not man prevail against Thee!"
CONVERT the souls of sinners in rebellion against Your to salvation, and the souls of Your people from selfishness so that they may truly love their neighbor, and be faithful in obedience!
"Let not man prevail against Thee!"
CONFOUND the schemes of the wicked and the compromisers! Expose their error and wake those who blindly trust and follow them!
"Let not man prevail against Thee!"
CONFIRM Your word and Your servants as they stand in the gap in Your name in the cause of those made in Thine image!
"Let not man prevail against Thee!"
CONSUME me, my family, and my brethren with zeal for Your righteousness, justice, and mercy! Let not my own expectations dictate my actions, but rather Your word:
"Stablish thy word unto thy servant, who is devoted to thy fear."
"It is time for thee, LORD, to work: for they have made void thy law."
"Therefore I esteem all thy precepts concerning all things to be right; and I hate every false way."
"My zeal hath consumed me, because mine enemies have forgotten thy words." (Psalm 119:38, 126, 128, 139)
"Let not man prevail against Thee!"
And that includes me.
Abortion must be abolished.

Children at the Gates of Death
Psalm 8:2 "Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger."
Psalm 127:4-5 "As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth. Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate."
Little ones are needed to be present at the gates of death when possible. Here are a few thoughts as to why:
1. Because if they are there, then a parent is more likely to be there, and grownups are needed there too.
2. It is good for them to work with their family in doing service for the Lord Jesus Christ. They can get to see the parents engage and learn many vital lessons.
3. Because they are a testimony to those who are committing murder upon the preborn, being a stark reminder that children are to be cherished, not crushed.
Children are often more tender towards the need than adults, not so apathetic, nor having been so hardened by sin and worship of convenience.
As someone who was included in Christian ministry and evangelism with my parents since I can remember, and as a parent now who has had and loves to have my own children with me at the mill, I can testify of much blessing, discipleship, and fruit it can afford to parent and children.
Years ago, long before I realized I was an abolitionist, I was one of very few (only two) Christians in Pensacola who regularly stood at the gates of death.
I remember a police officer telling us, "This must not be a big issue for Christianity, because Pensacola is FULL of Christians, and you are the only two here."
We became alarmed and brokenhearted over the silence, absence, and negligence on the part of our brothers and sisters in Christ concerning the slaughter in our midst.
We began to exhort fellow Christians in our church, and other fellowships, and invited them to join us.
After some time, we numbered four to six, coming just about every week.
Then, the pastor of our small Baptist church began to come out with his family. He had eight children, not all of them "little children", but the majority were teens and younger at the time. They came and became an incredible encouragement and asset in the battle for lives and souls.
But it wasn't just the pastor's family who came. The church followed, and soon there were over 30 Christians every Friday (their kill day). As a body, we started making signs and banners, we put up a billboard, exposing the abortion mill, we intentionally memorized hymns to sing as a group at the gates of death.
We saw fellow believers from over six different local churches standing regularly for Christ and the preborn. My family and I moved membership to a closer church for the sake of my sister's commute, who was in college at the time, and soon the pastor and members of that church as well joined the engagement.
We stood united in Christ for life and life everlasting, taking turns preaching, pleading, provoking the heart, offering help, all praying and praising the Lord of heaven in song. A book could be written about all the adventures and lessons learned outside that death camp.
The abortion mill was eventually shut down, and months later another abortion business opened up again, at least a new name and management, and then shut down for good. It is now an empty lot.
There was another mill in the city that also shut down for awhile, reopened, and I know of at least three churches who sent members to plead and preach there, though recently I heard that it may be closed once more.
A couple years back, I was talking with that pastor, and thanked him for coming out and leading the body in righteous opposition of that evil in the city.
He told me that the reason he went in the first place was because of his children. They kept begging him to let them go and stand with us. He didn't feel right about letting them go alone, and eventually decided to come with them to make sure they would be safe.
Then he saw the people going in and killing their children, and the Lord gripped his soul in the necessity of being there.
And the church followed. That was a MIGHTY turning point at the devil's doorstep.
I thank God for that pastor and that church, and I thank God for the children who kept asking to go and speak up for their neighbors.
Children are needed at the gates of death.
Abortion must be abolished.

Call Her Blessed
Proverbs 31:28 "Her children arise up, and call her blessed..."
I wanted to do this, to rise up and call my mother blessed. I love my mama. I have known her all my life. I could say many things about her, but here is one significant thing. She and Dad raised us to know Jesus, to love Truth, to value human lives and souls. She taught us at home and brought us out into the culture to engage for the kingdom of God.
Even now, as an adult myself, when I head down to hand out tracts in the open air, preach outside a strip club, call on leaders to abolish abortion, or engage at child sacrifice centers (abortion mills), things my mother taught me come to mind. I recall how she brought her children up, taking us with her to share the Gospel with the lost.
She led us up to drug houses, to give Gospel tracts to the men there, to invite their children to Bible clubs in our backyard. She encouraged my siblings and me to share the Gospel, and put us in front of groups, with things to teach, while we were still children. She took us and other youth in the church to teach Bible clubs all over the Kansas City area, including some of the roughest parts.
At one club, on the last day, a gang threatened to beat up anyone who came to club. Throughout the club time, a man on drugs up in a second story window had a gun trained on our group sitting in the playground of the apartment project with rock music blaring in his ears. In the middle of the club time, a gang fight broke out in the parking lot next to us.
My mom calmly led the example and we teens of the teaching crew followed, so that the ones who were not teaching at any given time would sit on the perimeter of the club, positioning ourselves between the violence and the children and adults who sat listening. That way, anything that may be thrown or such, would be more likely to hit us rather than the clubbers. I remember hearing roars of anger and screams of fear and pain from those involved in the fighting, but kept my eyes steady on the club, knowing that if I looked back, that the children would too. If I saw a little one's eyes turn toward the hostility, I would catch their gaze, smile reassuringly, and motion with my eyes towards the teacher. It was as if the Lord brought a peace to our hearts in the middle of the danger and tumult.
While the fighting behind me continued to rage, my little mother stood up and taught the Bible lesson of the day on the life of Timothy, declaring passionately the truth of God's word concerning the way of salvation in Jesus Christ alone, in living devoted to Him and His word, and challenged the hearers to be ready to stand for Jesus, willing to suffer and die for the name of Jesus, if necessary.
The Lord preserved the lives of everyone in that gathering that day, and I remember afterward seeing at least twenty clubbers of various ages, sitting in the grass, talking to counselors about the way of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ, and how to live courageously in Him, even as the lights of squad cars flashed in the lot, and police officers were questioning and arresting participants in the violence.
Yes, she and my father taught us children to stand for the truth, and to love people, no matter the cost.
So grateful for the mother that God used in my life and also so thankful for my virtuous wife who is mother in the lives of our children!
Abortion must be abolished.

What's Wrong With America?
This post was written by my wife:
---
There is one major reason America is in the horrific state that it is in.
It is the blood dripping from her hands!
In just the last 45 years (not including the abortions performed before Roe v. Wade, and the many image bearers killed through chemical contraceptives, Plan B, and IVF) we have violently murdered over 63 million precious babies--their bodies taken away as medical waste to be burned or casually flushed down the toilet. That is over the top sick! It is grievous. And what makes it even more hideous is that the baby's own mother is responsible for each torture and death.
There is not a single moment, here in America, where a child is not being targeted for death by his/her mother and father--the planning, the plotting, the pressure--it is being discussed and decided on right now, someone is looking up a web site or making a phone call or withdrawing money to cover the costs as you sit and read these words!
And we as a nation, and even more sadly, as the Church, have lived at peace with this horror.
We settle in down in our comfortable home and comfortable lives while our neighbors are being taken way to die. We are given a pious, pragmatic card to pay by those who tell us they know best--and then we look to them to know when to play it and when to keep it in our pocket. This brings a false confidence that we are fighting the dragon in the only way we can. This counsel is given from a powerless gospel and it is a disgrace to the One Who crushed the head of the enemy on the cross--and abolished death completely and forever! The only way to kill this dragon is to pierce his heart immediately. And we do this by looking into God's word alone for our battle plan.
As a Church, we have held firmly to our ProLife position--putting bumper stickers on our cars, signing ProLife petitions, voting the ProLife ticket, and giving money to the "Movement". We think we are doing what needs to be done, because we are told that what we are doing is what needs to be done!
O, the state of the Church! That we would listen to such vile advice and heed it.
As if the people of God did not have His word in their hands!
As if they did not know what He has already mandated must be done!
It is what the ten Boom family did during the Hitler's Holocaust--defying the evil laws of the Third Reich, defying their church leaders when told they must compromise and do nothing, and dying to their own comfort by rescuing Jews from certain death.
It is what other men and women have done to abolish the evil of their era throughout history--infanticide in Rome, the chattel slavery in the British Empire and the United States, twin killings in Nigeria, and temple prostitution/slavery and widow slayings in India!
"If thou forbear to deliver them that are drawn unto death, and those that are ready to be slain; if thou sayest, Behold, we knew it not; doth not he that pondereth the heart consider it? and he that keepeth thy soul, doth not he know it? and shall not he render to every man according to his works?" (Proverbs 24:11-12).
We must trust in the spiritual mean and methods God has given to us in His word. We must be an obedient Church, loving God and out neighbor as ourselves!
But we are deceived. And we are apathetic.
And being apathetic makes us easier targets to be deceived.
We have spent 40+ years cheering on other to "get the job done." And we have gotten NO WHERE! We applaud the incremental laws that are passed (i.e. protecting only certain babies from death-securing the slaughter of all the rest); we vote in ProLife leaders with hopes they will appoint ProLife Supreme Court justices in hopes that they will reverse Roe v. Wade (history lesson pause: Roe v. Wade was decided by a court that was comprised of a majority of justices who were nominated by Republican presidents); we choose one day a year to "highlight" LIFE in our churches, and yet often do what we can to soften the reality of abortion in case someone in the audience might have had one and may be greatly disturbed by the issue.
Yeah, and that too, we treat abortion like it's an issue! It's not an issue.
It's coldblooded, for hire murder.
It's little babies being poisoned or burned to death, ripped to shreds, smashed and pulverized or dismembered, and then pulled out of their mother's womb.
And it is done to over 3,500 babies a day.
It's our Holocaust.
It is this approach of the ProLife Movement, that has given evil the ability to sink its talons deeper into our culture. It has made Christians wimpy. It has made the Church compromise. You cannot abolish any evil by justifying or allowing it to continue in some cases. ANY strategy for ending abortion in this country which allows for the continued occurrence of some abortions for the sake of eventually outlawing the rest, though seemingly pragmatic, is compromise, and its promises of effectiveness are false. It's not slaying the dragon, it is feeding the dragon. Unless we become dissidents of thise culture of death we will never see this evil abolished.
There are Biblical grounds that make the abolishing of abortion a mandatory mission--mandatory--meaning every believer in Jesus Christ, every body of believers that gather regularly under His name, must rise up and do SOMETHING personally and corporately about it (James 1:27; Proverbs 24:10-12; 29:7;31:8-9; Psalm 7:9; 82:3-4; Luke 11:42; Ephesians 5:11; II Corinthians 10:5; Jude 23 and many more!).
Just like every other abolitionist, in every other evil age (one of my favorites being Amy Carmichael, missionary to India), we are to do God work by exposing and bringing down every work of darkness! We are to bring justice in the name of Jesus Christ to those who are oppressed (Ezekiel 22)!
It really doesn't matter who is president. Really! America will never be great again if America continues to murder her preborn babies. Period. There is NO way to get around the judgment God promises to fall on a people that sacrifice their children in the fire of Molech. God tells us quite plainly that His hates the "hands that shed innocent blood" (Proverbs 6:16-17) and when "Manasseh shed innocent blood very much, till he had filled Jerusalem from one end to another" (II Kings 21:16), God spoke vehemently regarding His own beloved Jerusalem, the apple of His eye:
"Behold, I am bringing such evil upon Jerusalem and Judah, that whosoever heareth of it, both his ears shall tingle...and I will deliver them into the hand of their enemies, and they shall become a prey and a spoil to all their enemies" (II Kings 21:12-14).
Our country wil continue down this slippery slope of destruction and she will be bringing this demise on her own head. It doesn't matter who is in the White House or who is seated on the Supreme Court, if we continue to murder our children! And killing our own children is, by the way, in Scripture, both worthy of judgment, AND is a promised judgment to nation that is rebelling against God.
Abortion may be sanctioned unconstitutionally by the courts, and justified under color of law, but there would be no abortion industry if there was no demand for it. The citizens of or United States demand abortion to the tune of 1.2 million a year! Abortion is sin and we must bring it into conflict with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
We must use the Gospel to turn those running headlong into destruction away from their sin!
We must seek out and stand by godly leaders like Senator Joseph Silk in Oklahoma and Representatives Heather Scott and John Green in Idaho, and Representative Curt Nisly in Indiana who will do all they can (at the risk of their own future careers) to stand up to the Federal Beast and the ProLife Establishment that collaborates with the murder, to put forth bills, demanding the total and immediate abolition of murder by abortion. It should be the first item on any political agenda.
And we must repent of our apathy and disinterest, Church!
Lamentations 3:51 tell us that if we need our hearts to be evoked (ignite passion and give us a voice as strong as thunder) we should open our eyes and look! It is our eyes that affect our hearts.. Open your eyes, dear friends, and loo at the face of child sacrifice. Look at its stark reality. Look at its tiny victims. It will be disturbing and will make you queasy. You might have a bad day because of it. I hope you have a bad day because of it. But, PLEASE, whatever you do, dear Christian, keep looking unto your heart is affected!
Repent with my family over the apathetic and pathertic way we have allowed our most innocent neighbors to be beaten and left for dead (Luke 10:25-37).
We must stand up against this evil and honestly ask ourselves, "What does Christianity look like in a culture that kills its own children?
If just 1% of the Church stood up in Biblical opposition to legal murder of the preborn, I do believe we would see it brought down. What a sad commentary--THAT NOT EVEN 1% of the Body of Christ will stop to help these poor little neighbors being beaten to death down the road from their assembly places. Just 1% of the Bible believing, ProLife Churches in our region would represent thousands! Millions of American Christians have a moral opinion regarding the crime, but do not feel that they have the time to (or specific call to) stop and bind up the wounds--to call for justice and equity (as specifically commanded in Scripture).
Remember it was the religious men who held a correct moral opinion that were condemned for behaving wicked;y in the parable of the Good Samaritan. They were the priest and the Levite. They were on their way to serve God and yet were among the "bad guys" in the drame that the Lord set before us. Why? Because they were bad neighbors!
And just like the lawyer who was first told this story, we are quick as the people of God to justify ourselves and say, "and who is my neighbor? I mean, really, Jesus, there are so many people in need. I surely can't help every single one!
I love that Jesus' response to that justification did not include agreeing with this sentiment. Instead He cut straight to the chase--"Go and do likewise!" (Luke 10).
Every member of of the Church is COMMANDED in this. Jesus told us that the greatest two commandments were to love God (the One in WHose image these little babies are made at conception and then are murdered in the place of the incarnation of Jesus Christ, God the Son, the place where He chose to enter the world), and to lover our neighbors as we love ourselves (treating our preborn neighbor as we would want someone to treat us).
We have been compliant and complacent long enough!
If you have read my post this far and would like to know more about about abolition and what you can do in your area, please contact me or my husband!
Wake up, and rise up, Church!
Slay the dragon! Abolish Human Abortion!

Abortion must be abolished.
Sample Message to Magistrates
Jeremiah 5:1 "Run ye to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in the broad places thereof, if ye can find a man, if there be any that executeth judgment, that seeketh the truth; and I will pardon it."
Here is sample of a message I sent to magistrates in Kansas (Governor, Senators, Representatives.)
"I am a Kansan, and I love my state. As a Kansan, I am grieved, for 'Bleeding Kansas' is still bleeding, with over 6,000 murder a year, of the most vulnerable and innocent of victims, and these murders are committed under 'color' of law.
These children are made in the image of the living and true God, Who is watching how you and I respond to the murder of our neighbors within our state. Their lives are destroyed, and they are not given equal protection under the law. We as a society have dehumanized them in order to destroy them. We must repent of this.
The Lord Jesus Christ, God the Son, Creator of all things, only Saviour of the world, and King of king has commanded, "Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself" (Matthew 22:39). If YOU were being dragged into a building to be murdered, and the state allowed "under color of law" since you and others like you had been dehumanized in order to justify your death, would you desire for government leaders to secure justice and equity, equal protection under the law for you and others like you?
I call you to do even so for those who ARE being murdered like that in OUR state.
It is not really your opinion, nor mine that really matters in this case. What matters in what does the Lord of Life have to say. God, Who is the Author of Life, Who alone has the jurisdiction to say when life can be taken away, has made it clear, that from the moment of conception, a woman is "with child". Science and medicine agrees with the Bible. We know that from the moment of fertilization, a new human being has come into being. And the Creator of mankind has said, "Thou shalt do not murder."
Leaders are commanded, "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" (Jeremiah 22:3). We are not to do violence to the vulnerable, nor shed the blood of the innocent. Yet, in Kansas, it is the MOST vulnerable and innocent who are targeted for slaughter more than any other people group.
I am an abolitionist of human abortion. As a Christian, I seek to love my neighbors as myself. I exhort and enjoin you to establish equal protection for the lives of all Kansans, born and preborn.
I invite you look up and consider what abolitionists are calling for in various states and consider leading and supporting such a move for our state. We need to bring abolition to the state Kansas.
Kansas is still bleeding, more than it ever did in the time of the slavery question.

And there are more.
Abortion is NOT healthcare. Therefore it should not be regulated as such. We need to repent of treating abortion as something it is not. It is homicide that has been allowed under "color of law" for decades in the Sunflower state. Innocent blood has stained the amber waves of grain. We need to establish equal protection for all Kansans, by abolishing it under the law.
To be clear, I am not asking you to be more ProLife. The ProLife Movement has NEVER treated abortion like what it is in their legislation. I am calling you to become an abolitionist.
Thank you for your consideration. I await your response. Know that you will not only answer to the people of the state of Kansas for your diligence or negligence in the midst of this Holocaust (that has slain in our nation over ten times as many as Hitler slew Jews), but principally to the God of Heaven Who has placed you in your position at such a time as this.
If you will do right and stand for the preborn, we will do all we can to rally support for you, and will stand with you. But we are demanding that you do right, and will not support you in doing wrong.
