CompassCare

At just the right time, Mary saw a CompassCare TV ad. Watch Mary tell her story of how her life was transformed.  “To this day, I think about everybody that is [at CompassCare]… and the impact they made on my life.”

There is a silver lining to the cloud of conservative midterm losses. Pro-life people will be less tempted to believe that returning to a political party of elected representatives can save us from systemic injustices like abortion. Social change has always come through the people’s insistence that government protect all people equally, without qualification. It is no different today when it comes to protecting both the born and the preborn equally. But the passion needed to rehumanize society will require a return to God who made us in His image and who alone is the source of human dignity.

While it is true that CompassCare and other pro-life organizations and people are being denied equal justice under the law and freedom of speech, we should not be surprised at the fiery ordeal among us. Jesus did say we would be persecuted and delivered up to the courts and governments. This battle is not about us. This is about the ability of pro-life Christians to continue being publicly Christian, loving one’s neighbor by protecting the weakest and most vulnerable of society.

This is the most important cultural moment in 150 years and abortion is the flashpoint.

Abortion is the flashpoint because it gets at the heart of the national divide about what is means to be human. We believe that all people are made in the image of God and deserving of blessing and protection, from the womb to the tomb, without partiality. This belief is the only basis for human dignity, equality, and liberty.

The Christian belief that all people are made in the image of God is the only basis for human dignity and equality. Why is that belief so dangerous to pro-abortion politicians such that they feel the need to undermine it? Perhaps because once that belief seeps into the hearts and minds of the citizens, dehumanizing other classes of persons including preborn boys and girls will become impossible. Jesus showed us that loving thy neighbor as thyself means sacrificing yourself for your neighbor. What pro-abortion politicians seem to understand all too well is that abortion means sacrificing your neighbor for yourself. And sacrificing others for one’s own interests is absolute power.

On August 23, Yelp published a notice explaining a new consumer warning placed on all pro-life pregnancy centers. After pressure from federal legislators and NY Attorney General Letitia James, Google followed suit. In addition, around September 2nd, Google deployed a two-pronged approach, removing pro-life pregnancy groups from Google maps while elevating abortion giant Planned Parenthood to the first result in all unplanned pregnancy-related organic search results. Google’s move brazenly gives millions of dollars in free advertising to Planned Parenthood’s abortion business while eliminating their only competitors, pro-life pregnancy centers.

Rev. Jim Harden, CEO of a network of medical pro-life pregnancy centers firebombed in Buffalo said, “Is it possible that pro-abortion politicians are colluding with big-tech to suppress the abortion industry’s only competition? Apparently, Google and pro-abortion extremists believe women should have no choice but abortion.”

Christians implicitly understand that as sinners, we were the weak and vulnerable who, through Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross, were saved from being beaten and left for dead by our sin and the sins of others on the dangerous Jericho Road of culture. Sin is violence, ultimately destroying everyone. The cross is the violence to end all violence. The cross is where Jesus demonstrates the priceless value of a person. The cross is where Jesus becomes our Good Samaritan. The cross is where perfect justice meets perfect mercy. And the mercy of the cross is open to all. The cross is the epicenter of the universe, reversing the effects of sin and death through the hope of the resurrection. The cross frees us from sin and the fear of death, empowering us to “Go and do the same,” giving life back to our fellow travelers.

Why are Christians so passionately pro-life? Emotion, experience, and rationality cannot be the foundation for being pro-life.…Christians are taught that everyone’s heart and mind is darkened by sin and cannot be trusted to lead us to truth (Jer. 17:9; Rom. 8:6-7). In fact, the pursuit of wisdom apart from God is exactly the context for the original sin of Adam and Eve (Gen. 3:1, 5-6), causing grave damage and death to humanity....God must show us what makes a human valuable.

Just seventeen days prior to the reversal of Roe v Wade, CompassCare’s Buffalo medical office was firebombed by a pro-abortion terrorist group, Jane’s Revenge. Their motto is, “If abortion isn’t safe, then neither are you.” They demand we shut down, threatening something worse than arson if we do not. Apparently, they don’t know pro-life people very well. God is the author of life and this is His work. Times like these are exactly why God has given us faith in Him. And since we represent Christ, who is the only hope for women and the abortion industry’s only competition, shut down we will not. Expand we will.

On Tuesday, June 7 at 2:30am, cowardly pro-abortion terrorists broke the windows and firebombed CompassCare’s Buffalo medical office. The group calling themselves Jane’s Revenge claimed responsibility, vowing further and more severe violence if we do not stop serving women. But Christians are called to fear God alone and serve people sacrificially. So, while the building was severely damaged, CompassCare continued serving patients that same day (see story here), and was back up and running in an alternate location the very next day. Beyond that, the rebuilding of the medical office began immediately with an aggressive Nehemiah-like goal to reopen services at the firebombed location 52 days later on July 29.
