The Pro-Life Movement’s Achilles’ Heel

[Laodicean60]

A continuous decline in abortion rates over decades since Roe v Wade seems like a win to me.



Pretty much so. Ohio used to be pro-life. Here's another set of facts that explains why Dobbs turned things around...

This chart shows God working in people's hearts. We Christians in my opinion cause the hate that's going on in the world. Those poor girls are already traumatized by being pregnant for the first time, by their parents, the unknown, protesting with signs of baby killers, and other hateful rhetoric. Abortion doctor killed during protest. The devil's system of media amplifies our ungodly actions. Look at gay protests, they have to start their own church because they feel unwelcome or alienated in ours. We do things outside of the bible for our own virtue signaling. When Roe was reversed I bet a bunch of Christians felt proud of themselves, patting themselves on the back, look what we did God. When all along the Lord said to pray, love your neighbor, and show compassion for these young people and tell them that God loves them. Peace

So, show us Scripture where Jesus affirms immoral behavior. Should we also affirm immoral behavior?


Just because we do not affirm homosexual acts, doesn't mean we hate people who have a same sex
orientation. However, we do not support the act, just as we do not support fornication by heterosexuals

Nor do we hate young girls who get pregnant. We do hate killing of the innocent unborn
child because the child would be an inconvenience on the mother.

Also, learn the difference between an indirect abortion and a direct abortion. It's the latter
that is immoral and everyone should be opposed to.

You don't affirm or condone the sin by loving the person,

You don't affirm or condone the sin by loving the person,

You do if you remain silent about the sin because you might offend them.

Love means helping them to avoid sin, and that means speaking the truth.

Love means loving them and by your love, they get curious about God. When you love them the way you're talking about they start their own churches. Those without sin cast the first stone. Look how much the gays hate Christians because holier than now Christians who love pointing out everyone's sins keep attacking them. Follow the example of Jesus and all will be well. We'll have to agree to disagree. Last post-Peace Out.

Love has nothing to do with churches, this is your own judgment against religion.

Jesus used the question of who could cast the stone if they were without sin? No
one did of course.

However, he told the woman caught in adultery, "to go and sin no more."

He didn't affirm adultery, which by your logic would mean not condemning the sinful act.
To do so, would throw the commandment back at the Father. Jesus didn't do that.
In various cases when Jesus healed a person, he told them, to go and sin no more.

Yes, we are all sinners. However, to affirm the immoral behavior of killing another human being
which direct abortion is about, is to sin yourself and to allow others to follow the sin.
This isn't love, but having an indifference toward God, and your neighbor.

Teaching others to follow the commandments of God, is to love them. Ignoring their
immoral behavior, is apathy, not love.
