Life Issues

Researchers found that music can calm the breast of not the savage beast but the precious unborn child.  Thirty-six pregnant women participated in the study.  The researchers consisted of two universities, a hospital and the National Institute of Cardiology.  They played two pieces of classical music for the babies while observing their heartbeats on external heart rate monitors.  The music “resulted in more stable and predictable heart rate patterns.”  They speculate the music can stimulate the development of the babies’ nervous system.  While both pieces of music were effective, the babies seemed to prefer the sound of the Mexican guitar more than the other selection.  Over four decades ago we played classical music for our oldest child.  He loves the music to this day.

I’ve often said abortionists cannot deny their role as a hired killer.  Each day when they suction, dismember and worse, they come face-to-face with the undeniable humanity of the preborn child.  Late-term abortionist, William Raushbaum understood this reality.  He said in an interview that during each abortion he envisioned a tiny baby clinging to the womb for life.  When asked how he coped, Raushbaum said he, quote, “Learned to live with it.  Like people in concentration camps.”  And by ‘people’ he meant the Nazis.  This haunted abortionist compared himself to Nazis.  Raushbaum is in eternity now but many more aren’t.  Please pray they hear the loving voice of Jesus, turn from abortion and follow the will of the savior.  Like the thief on the cross, salvation can be theirs.

Texas Judge Bryan Gantt ruled a New York abortionist, Margaret Carpenter must stop sending abortion pills into the state where the unborn are protected and pay a $100,000 fine.  This was in response to a lawsuit by the Texas Attorney General.  Part of the lawsuit is the abortionist has no license to practice medicine in the state.  A woman in Texas ordered the deadly pills from the abortionist and forced them on her minor daughter who wanted to keep the baby and had planned a gender reveal party.  Sadly, the baby died.  Judge Gantt’s ruling is an encouraging development in an ongoing effort to protect babies from chemical abortion.  Please join me in praying that vulnerable babies and mothers will be protected from this abortionist and others who prey upon them.

An extreme Left organization called the NonHuman Rights Project got shot down in court again.  The group wanted the Colorado Supreme Court to declare an elephant a person.  In New York they tried to do the same for chimps and a second time for an elephant.  Sadly, in New York two judges actually agreed with this ludicrous request.  In Colorado the Court ruled unanimously against them.  There’s a deep irony here.  Both New York and Colorado declared unborn babies are not considered persons any time during pregnancy.  And then if the children survive a botched abortion and are born alive, infanticide takes over and still denies them life.  Yet there’s an attempt to give animals personhood.  This will only get worse until every Christian engages in the election process.

Oregon’s governor, a self-declared lesbian, recently garnered attention for a video post on social media.  In it she restated her unwavering support for abortion until birth.  Oregon has one of the most draconian abortion laws on the books that denies the science and beauty of the unborn child.  In the video she claimed to have the backs of all Oregonians.  Missing are women who want to reverse chemical abortion procedures and Oregonians opposed to late-term abortion.  She calls her agenda “Oregon values.”  But they’re too radical for a vast majority of the state’s residents.  If every Christian in Oregon would educate themselves on where candidates stand on abortion and other important moral values, they’d change the political landscape in their state and be an example to our nation.

We saw it was coming.  An abortionist in New York has been sued by a Louisiana grand jury for mailing chemical abortion pills into a state where the unborn are protected.  A woman who ordered them from Margaret Daley Carpenter then coerced her minor daughter into taking them against her will.  They killed the unborn child.  Carpenter is also being sued by the Attorney General of Texas for sending the dangerous pills into Texas where the unborn are also protected.  The woman who received the pills suffered hemorrhaging.  New York Governor Kathy Hochul defended the abortion outlet and called the drug “a life-saving medication.”  These lawsuits are important test cases.  If they prevail, the abortion industry will be sharply curtailed.  I’ll keep you posted on them.

A predicted nightmare has come true.  An abortion center in Carbondale, Illinois opened near the border to accommodate women from pro-life states.  A common problem with chemical abortion is parts of the baby remain in the womb.  Especially when they use the dangerous pills past the time recommended.  The pills are largely unsupervised by the medical community, so women are going to the Carbondale hospital emergency room, nationally known for its birthing center.  But now emergency room staff and doctors are forced to become accomplices in abortion procedures by having to clean up the mess started by the local abortion mill.  Sadly, pro-abortion politicians who control the state legislature aren’t concerned as long as their radical abortion agenda continues untouched.

I have been talking about what President Trump’s actions early in his presidency mean for America and the world in regard to the promotion and provision of abortion on demand.  Let’s look at the dollar savings these policy decisions mean for you and your fellow Americans in not having your tax dollars spent on abortion.  Pulling America out of the World Health Organization saves thirty-seven million dollars.  Implementing what’s known as the Mexico City Policy saves you, me and others nearly twenty-nine billion dollars.  International Planned Parenthood will lose sixty-one million dollars.  Lost money means lost influence.  Together we can change the world for the better and most importantly save millions of babies by voting pro-life.  Praise God for His blessings on our nation!

Gideon, a Dutch Member of Parliament was silenced for revealing the ugly reality of late-term abortion.  During a committee meeting on medical ethics the young MP showed a model of an unborn baby at twenty-two weeks.  Abortion is legal up to twenty-four weeks.  A female committee member actually took the model out of Gideon’s hands and tried to hide it under the table.  Even though there were no rules against using it.  Because he was silenced he made a video explaining everything.  So far it’s been seen over seventy-thousand times!  Their attempt to censor the truth backfired.  I have been to the Netherlands many times to expose the reality of abortion.  If it is a social good, why do advocates of abortion try to hide the truth of what it really is?  Please pray for Gideon.

An article published by USA Facts Team showed how dramatically the number of multiple births has dropped.  Their team found from nineteen ninety-eight to twenty twenty-three the number of triplets and higher dropped a staggering sixty-two percent.  The article cites that during in vitro fertilization procedures, doctors placed fewer embryos inside the woman’s womb.  That of course accounts for some of the decline but not all.  Doctors routinely suggest selective reduction to parents who are expecting three or more babies.  This means aborting down to twins or a singleton.  When I inquired with the authors of the article if abortion had any impact in the findings I received no response.  My question is if abortion’s such a good in society, why do they avoid mentioning it?
