It has been established that Human Abortion is a Hate Crime and that The Time for Justice is Always Now. Let’s discuss the true motivation that drives this intense evil in our state.
Rebellion and disobedience against Almighty God, our Creator. In other words, sin.
Abolitionists put it this way: Abortion is sin… always and everywhere sin.
God exists. Every adult and young adult with a properly working brain, knows this. Created things have a creator. From your toaster to your smart phone to your home to a 737, and definitely to every human… creations always have a creator. The problem is, we, in our unregenerate state, hate Him. One of the primary ways that hatred is manifest is by the statement, “I don’t believe He exists.” In fact, predictably, some who respond to this article will choose that very statement in an attempt to justify their rebellion and disobedience.
Abortion will be abolished when we cease to tolerate it.
The fact that there are those who want the murder of the pre-born to continue is without dispute. There are many, like those who openly hated black humans and dehumanized them in extremely evil ways, who will say, “My body, my choice,” (nothing more than, “My plantation, my prerogative.”) as they dehumanize and murder pre-born humans. Their problem is not intellectual; it is a heart problem. They actually want babies to be murdered and removed. The good news is that God can change their hearts. We need to pray for that and do our part to deliver His message to them. These people are pro-aborts. Here’s the truth: They are NOT the reason that baby murder is sanctioned and protected in the Alaska Statutes.
There is another group of people. These people acknowledge the truth that God exists. At least with their mouth. Many of them will “say” that they are “opposed” to murdering children. Some will throw a few dollars at organizations or votes at politicians that claim to be in the battle. Most of these people do not have a correct understanding of the root problem, and are not working to apply the proper remedy. Some of their ignorance is just because they haven’t heard the truth yet, but in some cases, they have heard the truth... and just don’t like it. I’ll admit, it is not pleasant truth, and the actual battle is not fun. But people who love truth will repent of their wrong thinking and wrong actions and get involved in the battle anyway. You can count on this: It will cost you. If it doesn’t, you’re not actually in the battle.
Silence is consent.
There is a battle. Jesus is our Lord and King. You have two choices: Remain silent and at peace with the fact that five babies are being murdered every day, protected by the Alaska Statutes and those with the ability to change them, or you can repent of not being engaged as one of Gideon’s 300 and draw the Sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God, and join. If you do not join in the battle, YOU are the reason that baby murder is sanctioned and protected in the Alaska Statutes.
I was once the reason.
I am now an abolitionist of human abortion.
#HB250 is only a part of what we are doing.
Abolitionists cry, “No compromise!” Pro-lifers cry, “Get the best that you can get when you can get it,” and consistently support the “lesser of two evils”.
You can be a secular pro-lifer. You cannot be a secular abolitionist.
To be an abolitionist, you must believe in a higher law. One does not need to believe in a higher law or deity to embrace an adverse opinion regarding abortion. But to argue that abortion is evil and ought to be abolished regardless of whether 99.99999% of the rest of the human population agrees with you requires the existence of a binding moral law, which has its reference point outside of humanity.
Pro-lifers prefer common ground. Abolitionists prefer to proclaim the gospel.
A majority of pro-life leaders and organizations argue that one need not convince a person that God exists or that abortion is sin, in order to convert them to the pro-life position. While this may be true, abolitionists never choose to remove God or the gospel from the conversation. Abolitionists believe that abortion exists because men deny that God does. The pro-life movement argues that we should talk less about sin and more about science. Less about salvation and more about “saving the babies”.

Those who worked to abolish slavery were called fanatics and told to keep their moral and religious beliefs to themselves. Don’t. Silence is consent.
