Since 1973,40 years, 55,808,387 lives were lost

Forty years ago the Supreme Court decided a case that would ultimately end the lives of tens of millions of unborn babies. The legalization of abortion through ROE V WADE decision allowed the death of up to 1 out of three children born in following generations. On that same day, they released the DOE v Bolton decision that ultimately made abortion legal up to the day of birth in all 50 states. These decisions were based on a hierarchy of rights and interests .The rights of the woman ,the rights of the state and the rights of the unborn babies were all compared. Using many different argu-ments , the prevailing justices found that the right of the unborn baby to live was less important than the right of the woman to end that life. The misplaced comparison between rights ended in the death of 55 Million babies and the pains and guilt of millions of women. R IGHTS VERSUS RIGHTS While the rights we share in our country are important , what God views as right is even more so..Abortion has been legal since1973, but it has never been right in God,s eyes. Christ allowed the children to come to Him , who cared for the sick and weak, and who helped the poor and despised is our example to follow-even if our culture and society disagree. The opportunity to join God in caring for the weak and down trodden is all around us. We can save life and change lives through giving or volunteering at pregnancy Centers.We can help mothers avoid the guilt of abortion by promoting the message of life At fairs and Community events ..YOU can even start or join a pro- life group in your church to help your congregation be a part of protecting the unborn. The opportunities to respond to God’s call to do what is right are all around . Will you respond? Rescue those being led away to death; hold back those staggering toward slaughter: If you say , ‘But we knew nothing about this ,’ does not he who weighs the heart perceive it ? Does not he who guards your life know it? Will he not repay everyone according to what they have done? Proverb 24:11-12
