Yesterday the United States Senate Democrats voted down what should have been a slam-dunk easy passage of a bill meant to protect the lives of the most vulnerable around us—the Born Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act.
No, we’re not even talking about an anti-abortion law.
We’re seriously talking about a baby that has been born alive!
In light of this atrocious event, here’s a quick video in which I discuss:
- The real and obvious reason the The Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act did not pass.
- The fact that this is undeniably a “political” issue and it’s okay (actually, required) to engage it as one.
- The fact that a Christian can no longer make a justifiable argument for why Democratic party alignment is okay.
- A charge for men of God to step up to this issue and a bit on how we can and should make the difference in this matter.
The abortion issue is being pressed to reveal itself for what it is—pure evil depravity. It’s time to be angry about this matter. It’s time to do everything in our power to fight this evil.
Now Let’s Hear From You!
What are your thoughts on the democrats blocking this bill which so basically guards human dignity?
Regardless of your views on Republicans, do you think a case can be made for any Christian aligning themselves with Democrats?
Any other thoughts?

Any taking of a life God created (and He created them all) is morally and ethically wrong and evil. This is true no matter the vote… truth is truth regardless of all else. I fast against this and support those in agreement with truth always. People who vote evil are more responsible to God one day and those who do not defend those unable to defend themselves will also face judgment. That is truth and I agree with it. Thank you for posting.❤

Thank you for your encouragement Tonya! I agree. I also am challenged by your conviction to fast over this issue as you pray and speak and vote against this atrocity. That is a great approach and one I’m sure would help focus, sober, and align our hearts with God’s as we do it. Thanks for sharing.
It is troubling, that America doesn’t value life. I’ve wrestled with an approach and I don’t think people can really love other with out being transformed by God. So it comes back to the Gospel.
@disqus_vH749OLcKt:disqus I agree! We absolutely cannot give love and compassion to others if we do not have a source to draw that from ourselves—which is only God, known through Christ Jesus. So the ultimate answer is definitely the gospel and grace of Christ for all. Yet we must still speak out and call evil and darkness what it is. Otherwise, grace is meaningless anyway. What is light if you don’t understand your darkness? Christ came in both grace and truth. So must we! Keep up the good fight brother!
I find it difficult to ascertain what to do besides pray, and fast is you fast; stay faithful to Christ, and vote to some degree, resist the lawless, don’t stand with them. Voting is hard, they all look unworthy to lead. Poor to bad to worse, take your pick.
Some large majority of Americans still say they are Christians. Is it that many are fake Christians, or many shipwrecked Christians, supporting these things? One or both must be true, aren’t the leading parties majority Christians? The political system is largely tyrannical too. If we enslave people of the earth through our nation’s light, this nation which is now darkness, by teaching and diplomacy and force that abortion and gay marriage and sin in its many facets are human rights, its the will and force of the spiritually dead.
The states voting for gay marriage or against it, for instance – the people’s decision didn’t matter, most states voted against it, and yet we saw it made legal throughout the nation, by the decision of scotus, which makes judgement opinions not legislation; nevertheless they made law against the will of the people. Same is happening in other instances, the dominos are falling. The people nolonger stand sound doctrine, moral law, natural principles. Abortion is perhaps the worst of the moral bankruptcy. Millions of unborn, sacrificed into the fire, same as those worshipping Baal in scripture. What was their end? Now some won’t agree that abortion after birth is illogical, unreasonable, unscientific, wrong, sinful, and detestable? Shameful. Yes, I think you make a good point, about their “fear” of a slippery slope. They dont want logic and reason, that an infant is alive and human after birth – same as it was yesterday, in the womb.
And Im led to wonder, at what point do we know firmly that this country’s decisions to sin so wildly and freely, unremorseful, but proudly and arrogantly, make it an imminent target of God’s anger? How long, Lord, will you allow this nation, and others, to sin so grievously against You? God will have his judgment by his own hand, he repays and pays in full, and with interest, being just.
Thank you for the great word! All believers need to be shouting from the rooftops over this travesty! By the way, thank you for following me on WordPress. {gentlepen] I am trying to learn my way around here.
Thanks for the encouragement. I agree. We’ve decided we’re going to do a series of these posts now about engaging this issue (it will be geared for men, but you’re always welcome to listen in)!
