Let's Get Real Here People. On ABORTION.

Yeah, I know I should come with a disclaimer. But I am not ashamed to push the truth harder. Way too many deceived people out there. As I once was also deceived- God opens your eyes, your heart and consequently your mouth when you follow Him and allow Him to work through you.

"Proclaimed Christians" siding with abortion. Lets talk about this for a moment. I prefer the long moment.

Let us not even beat around the bush here, God gives us life, to live, as testimony to Him to bring others closer to him, so that they may also enter the kingdom of God.

 So breaking this down into sections just for a "proclaimed christian" to understand, because  we who proclaim to know God, are without excuse, we are held at a higher standard, we not only the Bible, the holy spirit convicting us but as we spend time with the Lord, He changes our hearts to what His heart is and do you honestly think Abortion... killing the innocent and debilitating the men and women involved is... God's heart? 

For the sections having to do with “Abortion” & “Effects” I have strictly stuck to definition and medical fact. You will not find my “opinion” on either of those sections.

Section 1: Straight up, what is Abortion.

 Abortion is defined as the termination of pregnancy by the removal or expulsion from the uterus of a fetus or embryo prior to viability. Prior to Viability means, unable to survive outside the womb, if you were wondering. Also that limit of viability "legally" is around 24 weeks. 

However, I have to make the point that babies born at 21 weeks, have survived. 

Did you know: abortions are 4 times more dangerous than giving birth…

During an abortion, the baby is not simply removed from the womb. The baby is torn almost literally limb from limb. The baby’s head is crushed many times during the procedure to ensure it can fit. I have included a video link; it is about 10 minutes long. It is an older video and is graphic in the sense that you see the baby on ultrasound.  Bottom line, outcome for Baby on account of Abortion is: Death.
Here is a baby that is "legally" able to be killed...

Why women have abortions
1% of all abortions occur because of rape or incest; 6% of abortions occur because of potential health problems regarding either the mother or child, and 93% of all abortions occur for social reasons (i.e. the child is unwanted or inconvenient).

I read on several bias sites, that a teen girl is 10 times more likely to commit suicide if she has experienced an abortion… than a teen girl who has experienced pregnancy and live birth.

“ Surveys of women who have had abortions, (see, for example, David Reardon's book, Aborted Women, Silent No More), show that abortion is not a question of giving a woman a "choice." It is, tragically, a situation of women feeling they have NO CHOICE, feeling that nobody cares enough about them and their child to give them any alternative besides going to the abortionist. The woman feels rejected, confused, afraid, alone, unable to handle the pregnancy- - and behold, in the midst of all this, she is told by society, "We will eliminate your problem by eliminating your child. Go get an abortion. It's a safe, easy, and legal solution."

Section 3: Rights, Freedoms, Choices…

Okay ladies and gentlemen; Let Freedom Ring huh?! I mean section 1 factually concludes the killing of an innocent life; then section 2 factually concludes that a woman has a lifetime of trauma ahead of her and blood on her hands... also that 93% of these deaths are because of Social Reasons.

I would love to direct this to everyone in this world but the fact is my heart aches for those deceived… those thinking they are walking in the light and are missing the point completely. And obviously I would love the power of God to touch an unbeliever and hope they would change their hearts about abortion or even God! But seriously, "proclaimed christians", who are siding with not just murder, but the debilitation of women everywhere. Talking/debating with these specific people, they have all used the same line “God gave us the freedom to choose, these women are exercising the right God gave them…” – I’m going to take a wild guess… but you must not study the word of God.  And as a Proclaimed Christian, you better be! Or you are again, being deceived and missing something (something YOU NEED!)

Back to the original point. FREEDOM TO CHOOSE, because Hey God gave it…

Genesis 2:15-17

 ¹⁵ The LORD God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it. ¹⁶ And the LORD God commanded the man, “You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; ¹⁷ but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat from it you will certainly die.”

(See how God gave man the choice… God gave us the ability to choose because He is a loving God and He was not planning to make us love him if we did not want to. Would you be love your husband if he MADE you marry him? Not likely. Also, it is clear even at the very beginning of creation there is Good & Evil and Yes, you can choose one or the other. But in the case of Abortion, for mother and child… why as a believer in Christ… would you choose the Evil…)

Proverbs 1:10-19

 ¹⁰ My son, if sinful men entice you,
   do not give in to them.
¹¹ If they say, “Come along with us;
   let’s lie in wait for innocent blood,
   let’s ambush some harmless soul;
¹² let’s swallow them alive, like the grave,
   and whole, like those who go down to the pit;
¹³ we will get all sorts of valuable things
   and fill our houses with plunder;
¹⁴ cast lots with us;
   we will all share the loot”—
¹⁵ my son, do not go along with them,
   do not set foot on their paths;
¹⁶ for their feet rush into evil,
   they are swift to shed blood.
¹⁷ How useless to spread a net
   where every bird can see it!
¹⁸ These men lie in wait for their own blood;
   they ambush only themselves!
¹⁹ Such are the paths of all who go after ill-gotten gain;
   it takes away the life of those who get it.

(Again… God lays out this choice for us. This proverb describes the side we are not to sit with. Point blank. This is the side that lies and waits for innocent blood to shed… fitting isn’t it? It says “do not go along with them, do not set foot on their paths”.)

Proverbs 13:6

 ⁶ Righteousness guards the person of integrity,
   but wickedness overthrows the sinner.

(This verse depicts that there is a choice that is Good- Righteous & a choice that is Evil- Wickedness.)

Romans 1:24-32

 ²⁴ Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. ²⁵ They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.

 ²⁶ Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. ²⁷ In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.

 ²⁸ Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. ²⁹ They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, ³⁰ slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; ³¹ they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. ³² Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.

(Lastly, for your Freedom to Choose section. This verse says “those who do such things deserve death”. The fact is we ALL deserve death, we all sin and fall short- But here is the deal, there are a many of us here reading this still who are SAVED by our powerful loving God.  SO listen up, because I want to get to the redeeming part after the spanking. Read 32 again. Just do it. “Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.”  So to the proclaimed Christian siding with abortion… You know Murder is wrong. Point Blank. So that covers the “Abortion” part fully, we are not to kill or even approve of the death of the innocent. Guess what else it includes…. Oh boy… it says “love” --- now if we go to 1 Corinthians 13 and I will bold where I want to elaborate on after the verse…

^“4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. ⁵ It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. ⁶ Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. ⁷ It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.”

None of this verse can be used when a baby has been killed; because it is not any one of these things. Which is why I want to direct it to the "proclaimed Christians siding with abortion", on behalf of the women undergoing. When you tell a woman it is her choice, after reading everything above… do you think you are being patient… or kind… is this not dishonor to her as a human life… is it not self seeking to encourage someone to murder because of life circumstance… will she always keep a record of wrongs because of her choice… Does Love, delight in evil suddenly? This is the one that just gets me “PROTECTS” are you not only relinquishing protection of that innocent life but also the life of this woman. The list of after effects should be proof enough! Are you trusting that you have God… who is able to do more than we can ever imagine and redeem any circumstance we find ourselves in! Where are your Hope and your Perseverance? I am serious, is it not obvious that there is NO LOVE in the all around spectrum of abortion for the person holding the pro choice sign, the baby, or the mother? Where is YOUR compassion?  

Section 4: In the Case of JUDGMENTS.
I can honestly say, in my experience as a believer- I have yet to hear someone whine as much about "judgment" as much as the people who proclaim to be Christians and do not live the life of one who follows the Lord out right. And it is a shame, because it shows how easily we can be swayed by this world, we are not above each other, we are not above failing- but as Christians, you absolutely need to understand what the Bible says/God says about Judgment.

Specifically for this reason when talking about Abortion... this is a line I have gotten from a handful of self proclaimed Christians...

"Who are you to judge a woman who gets an abortion, Lest ye not judge..."
Here is my answer: "Is not Death the ultimate earthly Judgment, that is what pro choice has done, it is the ultimate judgment on LIFE. For any pro lifer to advocate for the life of baby and the mother... is judgment? because we don't believe in killing the innocent or debilitating the mother?-- and isn't it nice you remembered one verse every none believer will use when feeling convicted."

SO this is what the Bible says about Judgement.
(We are to judge according to that by which we also shall be judged, the gospel of Christ.)

John 7:24 Judge not according to the appearance, but Judge righteous judgment.
 
And I was going to post a whole slew of other verses but I think that sums it up very simply. 

If God says NO THIS IS NOT OKAY people are being killed, or sold (human trafficking), or a number of other injustices around the world. And I scream to the world of injustice... guess what... I am judging with righteous judgment on behalf of what God has defined as injustice. The appearance of sin deceives many, because it is shiny and it can appear "fair" or "fun" but we don't sin in a vacuum guys, people are effected! Lives are ended! Take it seriously!

 

Section 5: Redemption. Because We are all gonna need it here.

YOUR VALUE. Yes. You, as a proclaimed Christian who hopefully DID (as in used to) agree with abortion.  Do you know… how much God values you? How much He values that baby in the womb? That new mother? …

Psalm 139:13-14
For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.

Ephesians 2:10 NIV
For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

Luke 12:6-7 NIV
Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God. Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don't be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.

John 3:16¹⁶ For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

HE LOVES US ALL SO MUCH… we are not worth more than these babies that are being killed, we are not better than these women who are deceived into thinking an abortion is the best choice for their life. But we do have the most powerful God that will be in front and behind us when we defend these lives being ripped off. We are to be spreading truth and love and bringing justice to those who are being unjustly dealt. I hope and pray anyone who was pro choice before reading this, feels the burning in their soul for truth.

James 1:27

²⁷ Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.
