It recently came to my attention that South Dakota has passed a pro-life law to ban abortions. This is wonderful news for all of us who believe in pro-life. But Authentic Christian Yelich Jersey , then it is discouraging that at the same time their governor also signed a bill to counteract this law and Planned Parenthood has announced their plans to defeat this law either through court action or by a statewide ballot initiative. Did you know that Planned Parenthood will most likely spend hundreds of thousands of dollars, perhaps even millions to defeat this bill? What do they hope to gain by this? Is it that they are playing gods? Shouldn't we let this job be left to the One and only God? After all, isn't He the One Who is in control of everything?
"The earth is the Lord's, and the fullness of it Authentic Mike Moustakas Jersey , the world and they who dwell in it." Ps. 24:1
It's a sad fact that our tax dollars are being used to fund these programs. Whether we like it or not or even know it or not, our tax dollars are supporting the nation's largest abortion provider. Even worse is that Planned Parenthood has spent millions of dollars on public policy expendatures in fighting lawsuits, legislations and other efforts that are opposed to abortion.
As Christians, why are we sitting back and allowing this to happen? This horrendous act is abhorant to the Lord. Are we compromising His Word if we just ignore and turn our backs on this issue?
If God had intended for abortions then why did He tell Adam and Eve to be "fruitful and multiply Authentic Ryan Braun Jersey , and replenish the earth"?
Let's go back to God's Word in Jeremiah. When God tells us something, He means it. It's not for us to take it and change it or switch things around to suit ourselves. God is holy and righteous and He tells us to be the same. Abortion, particularly those late term partial birth abortions are nothing short of cold blooded murder. I'm almost positive God didn't give us the supremecy to take a baby's life from the womb.
"Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations." Jer. 1:5
"For we are His workmanship Authentic Lorenzo Cain Jersey , created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them." Eph. 2:10
All of us may have come as a surprise to our parents, but God already knew us. We are each and every one of us an integral part of His grand purpose in the earth. So much so that He foreknew us and He raised us up for a specific time in history.
" who knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this?" Esther 4:14
If God has already foreordained us, don't you believe that we have another purpose to fulfill? As this verse in Esther says Authentic Cory Spangenberg Jersey , who knew that she was brought to that place at that time so she could save the history of the Israelites. Now of course if Esther wasn't willing to be in the will of God, He still would have used someone else. But the fact remains, that was her destiny to fulfill. Don't you believe that you were put here for a reason? What makes us think then that these unborn babies are disposable and won't be missed? What if Jesus' mother were not willing to do God's will? Jesus still would have been born, but Mary was the chosen one for such a time as this. God had already foreordained her for this purpose. Who are we to throw away the destinies of these babies? As God's children we are to have compassion for those in need. These little children don't have a voice yet. Let's be that voice!
Abortion has another face also. It affects the mother who later has extreme feelings of guilt and loss. Her destiny is also being altered because of this extreme act of sin. The most deadly sins don't leap upon us Robin Yount Jersey , but they creep up on us. Maybe at the time she felt she had no choice. Perhaps she was unwed, a young teenager, maybe even sexually assaulted and felt it was her duty to dispose of this unwanted pregnancy. God will deal with people about their sins and sometimes it hurts more than the sin itself. Guilt is a terrible thing to carry around. Unless you can come to God and get on your face and ask Him to forgive you, this haunting feeling will never go away. Unless those of us who know God's Word can witness to these hurting people Jim Gantner Jersey , they may never receive God's grace for forgiveness in their lives. Who is benefiting from this disobedience? Satan! We need to become aware of his game plan.
I can't express it enough but Satan is our very real adversary. I've written this many times but it is worth repeating. John 10:10 tells us that the thief comes to kill, to steal and destroy. It's his life long plan to destroy God's plan for us. If we keep giving into his lies by destroying innocent babies, we are pawns in his chess game. God's plan will go ahead in another way, but why do we choose to let these things transpire if we know better?
I'm speaking to all you born again Cecil Cooper Jersey , saved Christians who know without a doubt that you have been chosen for such a time as this to stand up and do your part to stop these killings. There are other alternatives to abortion. Adoption is a great way to allow a child to have what God foreordained him to have. It's also a wonderful gift for couples who can't have their own child. We need to be PRO life and let God take control!

God gives us all a free will to choose right or wrong. He said He would rather we choose life. Let's help these unborn children gain the right to their lives also. Each one is precious and was conceived for a reason. Who are we to play god?< Arthritis c.
