Protecting the innocent.
Societal norms demand that we protect the innocent. Those
who cannot defend themselves need our protection. That is why a parent will
defend their children with their lives. Jesus said, “Let the children come
to me. Don’t stop them! For the Kingdom of God belongs to those who are like
these children. I tell you the truth, anyone who doesn’t receive the
Kingdom of God like a child will never enter it.” Then he took the
children in his arms and placed his hands on their heads and blessed them.”
Mark 10:14-16. Children are our most important resource. Without children, humanity
ends. Why is that the left conspires to eradicate the most vulnerable among us?
Why is the wanton murder of children waiting to be born, or what is otherwise
known as abortion, so important to them? Why are they embracing a death cult?
Abortion has nothing to do with women’s reproductive health
care. In 1973, Roe v. Wade determined that abortion was legal. Since then, over
50 million children waiting to be born have been brutally murdered. Abortion is
a brutal procedure that mirrors some of the torture techniques that were used
in the Middle Ages. 50 million children murdered by abortion is greater than 14%
of the current population of the United States. How many doctors, scientists, teachers,
caregivers, plumbers, electricians, or other positive contributors to our
society have had their lives snuffed out before they could even begin? Life,
liberty, and the pursuit of happiness apparently is not equally applied when an
unborn child is added to the equation. Selfishness triumphs with the “procedure”
known as abortion. It truly is one of the most evil “elective medical procedures”
that humanity has concocted.
Why does a women’s right to choose trump the inalienable
human rights of the child within her womb? What have we become when there is
not a second thought to that life? Less than 1% of abortions are performed due to
pregnancies caused by incest, rape, or to save the life of the mother. Most of
the pro-choice argument holds little to no water to bolster claims that
abortion is necessary to protect women’s reproductive rights. It is simply an
easy way to neglect responsibility for a lifestyle that is in direct conflict
with God’s intent. Sexual relations have been reserved for one man and one
woman within the confines of the sacrament of marriage. Both parties conceive
and raise their children and are responsible to instill within them morals,
values, and a love of God. It is obvious that there is a concerted effort to eliminate
God and any values instilled by our Creator. The evil one is flourishing in
this world.
Every single pro-choice advocate was once a child in her
mother’s womb waiting for his/her birth. Each of them had a right to life,
liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Each of them could have had their lives
ended if their mother did not want to be inconvenienced by the responsibilities
of raising a child. Selfishness is our greatest sin and easiest to commit. In
this society it is all about pleasing oneself first. “Look at me. I am
wonderful. I can be anything I want to be.” In this wicked generation, God is
but an afterthought. Sex is a game for anyone to play at any time. Hookups, Tinder,
and the like are pre-emptively destroying future relationships. Satan must be
so proud.
In its innate selfishness, “woke society” believes that
biology can be overturned and gender reversed. “God must have made a mistake,
and that mistake must be corrected to my satisfaction.” What is a woman?
Apparently, whatever one wants it to be. Transgenderism is a mental disease.
Less than a decade ago gender dysphoria was considered a psychiatric disorder.
Now, children, often with encouragement of woke teachers, are allowed to decide
if and when they are to undergo permanent life-altering treatments, such as
puberty blockers and surgeries to “change” to their desired gender. Never mind that
those altered will never be able to have normal sexual relations, give birth,
or sire children. The world is on fire and society pours gasoline on it!
The world needs God. The world needs a Savior. The world
needs to come back to Him if we intend to overcome evil. Without God, we fight
alone. With Him, all things can be accomplished. “Finally, be strong in the
Lord and in His mighty power. Put on the full armor of God,
so that you can make your stand against the devil’s schemes. For
our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against
the authorities, against the powers of this world’s darkness, and against the
spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” Ephesians 6:10-12
And yet there are those who say that the Bible is irrelevant
in these enlightened times.
