God's View of Abortion1Since January 22, 1973 we have killed nearly 57 million of our own children.  That number is equal to 20% of our total population in this country.  And don’t be fooled by the political rhetoric: only 1% of those killings had anything to do with rape, incest, or the mother’s life being in danger.  99% of this murderous holocaust has been done because these children were thought to be an inconvenience!  What heights of selfishness we’ve now reached!

And God has something to say about all this selfishness.  When His people, Israel, fell into the murderous practice of sacrificing their children to the demon, Baal, God rebuked them with scathing words through the prophet Ezekiel.  He told them,

“Thou hast also taken thy fair jewels of My gold and of My silver, which I had given thee, and [made] to thyself images of men, and didst commit [adultery] with them… Moreover thou hast taken thy sons and thy daughters, whom thou hast borne unto Me, and these hast thou sacrificed unto them to be devoured. Is this of thy [adulteries] a small matter, That thou hast slain My children, and delivered them to cause them to pass through the fire for them?” 

(Ezekiel 16: 17, 20-21)

God said to His people that they had taken His silver and gold, which He had entrusted to them, made idols (which always have demons behind them), and sacrificed to those demons, as an act of adultery, children entrusted to them by God.  How sickening!

Yet, when we sacrifice one of our children by murdering them in the womb, are we not making love to the god of selfishness: satan himself?  Think about it!  Joshua called Israel to:

“…Choose ye this day whom ye will serve…”

(Joshua 24:15)

Elijah challenged Israel:

“How long halt ye between two opinions? If the LORD be God, follow Him…”          

(1 Kings 18:21)

You may feel hopeless in the face of so seeming a giant as abortion, or its flag-ship organization, Planned Parenthood, which actually cancels parenthood!  But there are things you can do.

Something everyone can do is called “40 Days for Life”.  There is an organization by that name which urges us twice a year to be involved in a prayer and watch vigil which is having a considerable impact on Americans.  In fact, since they started in a town in Texas in 2004, almost 10,000 children who were headed for abortion have been saved!  And now people in over 550 cities in every state in America are praying in different 40 day time periods each year.  As a result, 59 abortion clinics have completely shut down and 107 abortion workers have been converted!  This work of prayer, witnessing to the mothers who come to abortion clinics, and also witnessing to the workers there, is having a profound effect.  And this is something every single God's View of Abortion2American can do!

Another powerful thing you can do is to call, write, email, or text your Legislator in your district and kindly insist they work for laws to STOP abortion— as their first priority!  The more they hear it from the people who vote in their district, the more they are going to listen to us; they all want our votes next election!

Will we hear God say to us “Well done, good and faithful servant” because we were actually working to stop abortion with our prayers and our actions?  Or will we “be ashamed before Him at His coming” because we refused to do the inconvenient thing of praying and contacting our government servants about the murder of little children?!

Think about it; because if you don’t, someone else will do your thinking for you— and for your children!  And you won’t like what that brings to you.  I’m Don Pinson; this has been Think About It.
