Doc Johnston and his whole wonderful family will be with us for our National Event here in Charlotte this July 21-28.  They have been working hard for “Personhood” in their state of Ohio.  Most importantly, they have been steadily advancing the Kingdom of God in their neighborhood, their city, their state, and their nation.  Where does vision like that come from?

A Milestone Reached En Route to Justice for the Preborn in Ohio

As of July 4, over 370 Ohioans have gathered 21,422 signatures and donated to help protect every preborn Ohioan under Ohio law. The past eight months, we have sent 40 thousand mailings and made 55 thousand phone calls! Tens of thousands of dollars of radio ads have gone out over the airwaves. We’ve been interviewed on television and radio, printed in the USA Today, World Magazine, in every major newspaper in Ohio, plus dozens of other newspapers and online news organizations. Praise God, donations come in as fast as we spend the money! The Ohio pro-life grassroots are showing that they are tired of regulating abortion – they want “liberty and justice for all” Ohioans! It’s so exciting to be a part of what God is doing in Ohio. The state that led the way in abolishing slavery is leading the way in abolishing abortion.

We have our sights firmly set on 2014 to get on the Ohio ballot. You can help us make Ohio the first state in the nation to protect every preborn baby since Roe v. Wade. Catch the vision! Don’t be a bystander – join the mission! Help us get into churches! Help us with desperately needed funding for mailings! Help us protect “the least” of God’s children. Visit www.PersonhoodOhio.com

“That Photo Is Way Too Controversial!”Picture on the<br />
                                                    front of our June<br />
                                                    mailing 

That was the comment we received soon after we designed our last postcard, delivered to 10,000 pro-life Ohioans last week. The striking concept the picture conveys is a painful one to comprehend, but true nonetheless: abortion kills a baby and hurts a mother. Scientific studies are proving the truth of the claim of Scripture, that sooner or later, sin produces misery. Abortion increases the mother’s risk of breast cancer,  depression, suicide, premature deliveries of future babies, and a host of other problems, but you would never know that if you got your news from the mainstream media.

The Holocaust of over 50 million Americans can only thrive under an environment of censorship. The American public and the media cannot tolerate pictures such as the one on our postcard.

For being so accustomed to images of violence and gore from Hollywood, don’t you find their abhorrence at having to view images of aborted children peculiar? The pictures of dead babies killed by abortion paint a thousand words, and emasculates all of the pathetic justifications for abortion. Did you know that over the last four decades, abortion is the most common surgery in America? And yet it has been wholly censored from the eyes of the American public.

Sometimes, God leads His prophets to show the people their sin.

“Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and show My people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins” (Isaiah 58:1).

 

“Truly I am full of power by the spirit of the Lord, and of judgment, and of might, to declare unto Jacob his transgression, and to Israel his sin” (Micah 3:8).

The American public is way under-horrified by abortion. In our pursuit of justice for the preborn, one of the things we must do is awake the public to the horrifying reality of child-killing. We must show the people their sin. Just as a physician may need to show the patient the evidence of the diagnosis and prognosis before prescribing a remedy, those that have had abortions, paid for abortions, and justified abortion will never experience forgiveness until they come to grips with what they have done.

One of the ways you can activate the public to be concerned about the plight of the preborn is to share the images of aborted – images like the video on the website of the Center for Bioethical Reform – www.AbortionNO.org

. This video is a lightening bolt of truth to awaken people from their apathy and slumber. If you spread this link to your friends on facebook and on your Email list, you’ll find many of them will be enraged about the images of the slain, especially those whose hands are stained with blood. Be quick to offer the mercy available through Jesus’ death and resurrection. Others simply protest because the pictures are difficult to look at. However, if something is too horrifying to look at, it is too horrifying to tolerate. God sees these babies being dismembered every single day, and He is angry with Ohio for the shedding of innocent blood. We must feel God’s heartbeat for “the least” of His children, and we must be energized by His Spirit to intervene and “rescue those being led away to slaughter” (Proverbs 24).

More taxpayer funding of abortion…

In the Bible, the shedding of innocent blood was often the last straw before God finally sent judgment. God promised and sent judgments to Israel such as economic disaster, defeat in battle, natural disasters, and “madness of heart.” Because they did not end the killing of other people’s children, God told them “your children will be dashed in pieces against a stone” (Hosea 10). Under God’s judgment, the Jews starved, were crucified, and cruelly enslaved because they refused to repent and do justice to protect the innocent. Many nations and empires greater than us have been annihilated because of their sin. If God did not exempt Israel – His chosen people, the apple of His eye – from judgment for her sin, why do we act like the U.S.A. is exempt?

Our nation shows no signs of even slowing the momentum into socialism and godlessness. With the passage of Obamacare, we’ve never had more taxpayer funding for abortion in our nation’s history. Large pro-life and pro-family groups in Ohio watch abortion-abolition movements like Personhood Ohio from the sidelines, preferring to regulate abortion than end it. Entrenched pro-life leaders believe that we are obligated to submit to judicial tyranny, and that we need to work to get pro-life presidents to appoint pro-life justices. You’d think that Robert Thompson’s vote for Obama’s communist, abortion-funding healthcare bill would help them re-think their failed pro-life strategy, but they don’t appear to be budging. Too many of them are far too comfortable with child-killing. They don’t see “the hand-writing on the wall” for America. Judgment is coming to our land, and Ohio’s opportunity to avert judgment is brief. We must protect the children, or we will lose our freedoms and our posterity will be enslaved.

All God’s looking for is a remnant “whose heart is perfect toward Him” in order to “show Himself strong” (II Chronicles 16:9). All God’s looking for is a remnant to avert judgment (Ezekiel 22:30-31). God prefers to resurrect leaders out of the grassroots than to prop up the status quo. He loves to do exploits through His underdogs. Just as Israel’s faith was tested in the wilderness before they could conquer their Promised Land, so our faith will be tested, for it is through faith we’ll cross the Jordan River into our Promised Land of “liberty and justice for all.” Ohio’s Personhood initiative draws a line in the sand between those who “sigh and cry” over the sins of the land that are bringing judgment upon us, and those who are comfortable to conserve the status quo (Ezekiel 9).

Will you sigh and cry with us? Will you mourn the 25,000 Ohioans who are slaughtered every year in our abortion clinics, and pray for their deliverance? Will you believe God with us, that every child will be protected under Ohio law?
