THE HEART OF OUR NATION IS CHANGING!

 

 THE HEART OF OUR NATION IS CHANGING!

These startling statistics are well beneath the radar of Tom Brokaw, Peter Jennings, and Dan Rather, but they should be greatly encouraging for those of us standing for life. As you will see, the battle for the lives of little baby boys and girls in their mother's wombs is being won as gentle Christians are living out their faith in the streets of their cities. That's right! During the administration of the most pro-abortion President our nation has ever had, the number of abortions performed in America, the number of abortion mills, the number of doctors performing abortions plummeted dramatically.

William Jefferson Clinton did everything in his power, but build an abortion mill in the West Wing of the White House, to aid and abet the abortion industry. Still, the numbers plummeted and they are plummeting today! How can this be?

Abortion is not a political issue. It is a Gospel issue. When gentle Christian warriors allow their theology to become biography at the gates of hell, the gates of hell cannot prevail. The heart of our nation toward the unborn child is changing. The truth is getting out and the enemy does not have enough fingers to put in the dyke to stop the hemorrhaging.

"Abortion will come to an end in America when the Church of Jesus Christ makes up her mind that it will come to an end, and not one second sooner!"

What the Abortion Industry is Saying: "We are losing!"

  1. "For five consecutive years nationally, teen pregnancy, birth rates, and abortions have declined." (Dr. Henry Foster, abortionist and President Clinton's National Advisor on Teen Pregnancy, 1998)
  2. "This is a crisis, it's increasingly impossible for women to get a service (abortion) that's absolutely legal." (Melinda Dubois - US News and World Report, 1998)
  3. "Hate and harassment clearly inhibit women from access to abortion. It is more difficult now to get an abortion than it was five years ago." (Gloria Feldt of PPFA, 1997)
  4. "Abortion opponents will achieve their goal without ever having to overturn Roe v. Wade." (Kate Michelman of NARAL, 1997)
  5. The annual "March for Abortion" in Washington, D.C. on April 22, 2001, had its lowest attendance ever, attracting only a few hundred stalwarts. This despite the beautiful weather and that NOW, PP, and NARAL spent three months recruiting at colleges..
  6. "The number of abortions in this nation has dropped twenty-nine percent in the last six years." (Dr. Joycelyn Elders, former U.S. Surgeon General, 1998)
  7. "The anti-abortionists are winning without really winning. They scare off the younger doctors." (James Pendergraft, Abortionist - The Associated Press, 1998)

It is when the heart of a nation changes that the laws of the land will reflect that change.

During the hearing of NOW vs. Scheidler/Operation Rescue, we saw for the first time the hearts of the Supreme Court Justices, even those with great philosophical and theological differences, turn toward gentle Christians living out their faith in the streets. It was a miracle given to us by God Himself. We are winning the battle in the streets and the laws of our nation will soon begin to reflect that change.

The humanity of the little child in the womb of his mother has become almost impossible to deny, thanks to the bold witness of Christians who have despised the shame and shown the truth in the streets of their cities.

Truth is piercing and overcoming the darkness. We pray that these statistics and statements will be an encouragement to you. The abortion industry is in a downward death spiral. You will never see this on the national media for it has no desire whatever to allow these facts to be known. You, however, "are the light of the world…let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven."
