In the last few months, we have seen brutal and fast-moving abortion agendas being rapidly deployed and unashamedly celebrated in various states. With each new strategy to squelch preborn – and now born – life, public outrage is growing in the pro-life community. Many are questioning how we got to this gruesome place in history.
The answer is simple. Our culture has dehumanized unwanted preborn children for over 40 years. Therefore, it only stands to reason it would now dehumanize the unwanted born child.
Considering this recent ruling by the Senate, it’s easy to cast blame or feel hopeless. However, we cannot allow complacency or discouragement to keep us from working even harder. We cannot let this decision deter us from our mission.
We must intervene on behalf of the most vulnerable and restore our culture to one that values ALL life!
Every physician and all medical personnel know: In its First Stage of life…six weeks a heartbeat… weeks a brainwave. Yet, human beings in civilized societies cut the throat for a quick termination when abortion fails to KILL this human, God-impanted-human life that He has willed with His Divine Right to… Read more »
Very true! Thank you for speaking for the helpless, vulnerable babies!
How could caring women be offered the chance to take custody of a pre-born baby; rather than actually killing the baby? I know, personally, some 20 such women; depending on the state involved. Is there anyone to council us regarding any possibility of saving a pre-born baby?
There is too much talk of God in the anti-abortion issue. I’m an atheist and like many atheists and humanists, I am totally against abortion except when the mother’s life is absolutely in dire jeopardy, which is very rarely the case. However, and unfortunately, since non-religious people, now the biggest… Read more »
John – thanks for the comments and I appreciate your perspective. It is important that people of various walks find common ground and find ways to work together in that commonality. And your personal story is both powerful, emotional, and effective. And I, too, am very grateful you are alive!… Read more »
Brian, thank you for the thoughtful reply. I think you may have missed my point. Making the abortion issue a religious issue means, I think, that the ethical issues involved are often not addressed properly. When do you hear about the high suicide rates amongst women who have had abortions?… Read more »
John – apologies that I wasn’t in sync with you. The issues you note (suicide rates, the brutality of abortion itself, etc.) are items we speak and communicate about regularly here, so I may not have the same frustrations you do. We believe in educating about human dignity, abortion, and… Read more »
Awesome Brian! I agree wholeheartedly with you. Thank you for this statement for life!
Your headline said the senate voted the bill down. It should have said that the Democrats in the senate voted it down.
I thought the Senate was a Republican majority and the Democrats have the house.
This is monstrous! These so called humans have no souls ! They must be stopped!
We all that are against this, needs to do what he is talking about! Start with our churches!! Call our congressman and let them know this is not acceptable…
Praying people will open their eyes and hearts and realize this is wrong.
We should never give up! Prayer is powerful and we need to keep praying to God to have the victory on the evil situation. The veil is on the faces of people who just do not care or (get it) I see this every where. I know the truth because… Read more »
Pray is fantastic and deeply necessary indeed. We also need to “pray with our feet.” We must act like we would if 1 million 5-year-olds were being killed very year. God has answered many of our prayers in the form of us!
Yes and amen to all Marina has said! The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails MUCH! The infiltration of filth and wickedness was a gradual thing but has escalated just recently exposing who is on which side! Murder is an abomination before God and even though it seems… Read more »
This is murder, nothing less. God have mercy on us.
Abortion is MURDER whenever it takes place, I don’t care if you are 9 or 90. God placed the seed for a reason, man does not have the the right to kill it especially when so many people are wanting and waiting to adopt a child. THERE IS NO EXCUSE… Read more »
WE are heading for Isaiah chapter 18.
GOD will not put up with this country much longer.
Its not only the abortions that are the problem. Next they will go after the elderly, saying they are no longer productive members of society…
Indeed – I think it is already happening with assisted suicide.
You are absolutely right! Democrats only want illegals and non citizens because they vote for them. WAKE up AMERICA and vote RED in 2020!
I feel sickened and horrified at this situation. How could any human being look at those tiny little people and be so hardened against them as though they were they were at war against them, as if they were the enemy. In fact, to them I guess that is the… Read more »
Amen to that, come quickly, Jesus. I can’t believe anyone, especially our elected officials, would vote down on protecting an innocent child laying there just waiting for someone take of it! It feels like we’re in the times of Sodom and Gomorrah.
Ever Church family should teach the congregation how this sin is one, not only individuality of each and every person, but collectively, of the entire USA. The blood flood of our babies, has created, and is continuing to created this empire of our enemy, the “evil one.” We ALL must,… Read more »
THIS IS SO MUCH MORE THAN SAD! – IT IS VERY, VERY SCARY! – HOW COULD ANY GOD-BELIEVING PERSON – OR ANY PERSON WITH ANY MORALS & LOVE AT ALL – GO ALONG W/ THIS?! I BELIEVE THESE LAWMAKERS ARE NOT ONLY DOOMING THEMSELVES, BUT OUR NATION ALONG W/ THEM!… Read more »
This means: Back to Nazi euthanasia. Everything must be done to avoid it, even if it necessitates civil war.!
I don’t believe in Abortion and think anyone who performs this action should be locked forever it is a sin and should be treated as so. It should be outlawed and abolished forever it is a criminal act as much as a person going out and deliberately shooting or stabbing… Read more »
Right on. Our church leaders are silent within their cloistered walls, let alone in the public square. They have simply walked off the playing field: “Abortion is politics, and we are not to be involved in politics”! You know, to protect our tax-exempt status!? Your organization does what church leaders… Read more »
Here in Mattoon Il our crisis pregnancy center is 501c3 and is silent on the issue. I wanted to volunteer and couldn’t cause their volunteers can’t participate in pro-life events
It seems the word contraception is forgotten. Personally I am not in favor of it but it’s less evil than murders of powerless, innocent children. Why we condemn the Holocaust and approve infanticide, why killing animals for fur is stigmatized but killing human beings because of someone whims is ok?… Read more »
There is one person who can flip the abortion debate upside down and it is the post abortive woman hurt by her abortion. Brian mentioned looking ourselves in the mirror and asking ourselves do we behave as we say we believe? Of course we don’t. Those of us in the… Read more »
Who else do we know that is a culture of death? Satan himself and he has duped multitudes into carrying out his plans. And today we have this culture of death on our doorsteps and folks all across the nations are in decline in spiritual matters. And of course, once… Read more »
Wonderful speech. I am a Christian and would only vote for those who are pro-life.
Thank you!
If we as a country allow such a murderous act, we are doomed as a country. The ONLY way to stop this, is through the Supreme Court and from our Bill of Rights. We can not use religion or God to defeat this madness. The leftwing thrives on the separation… Read more »
The Separation of Church and State mean, the State can not get involved in the Church, but the Church can get involved in the Government. This is one of the MOST MISUNDERSTOOD thing written in the Constitution.
Actually the separation of church and state doesn’t even appear in any founding document. Thomas Jefferson used the phrase in a letter to the Danbury Baptist Convention in response to a concern of theirs. And, to your point, Jefferson meant that his friends in CT did not have to be… Read more »
Since the senate is controlled by the republican party how did this not get pass. Who were the republican senators who voted for murder
There weren’t enough Republicans to stop the block. All Republicans and 3 Dems voted in favor, but that wasn’t enough.
Only 97 voted so who was absent or abstained. Forty four voted for it and there are fifty three Republicans so who were the nine who voted for or abstained?
The same people are against cruelty to rabbits and chickens yet babies have the complex nervous system that feel pain as well as emotions to cry and scream and the intellect to know they are being mistreated and tortured. So sad! We aren’t overpopulated like China. There’s so much land… Read more »
Also, if viability is the test of whether a person has the right to life then children beyond birth can not survive alone so can they also be denied the right to life? Then there are people who are disabled or have an incurable disease so must they also forfeit… Read more »
Maressa, I love your heart and I’m on the same side, but I’m not sure I follow the Cesarean comment. That is major surgery and (unless the risks outweigh the benefits) can impact the ability of a woman to give birth in the future, as well as the mortality risk.… Read more »
Population control
It is sick to think that so many people want to kill these babies and there are so many that would love to have them. If they don’t want babies then they need to stop doing what causes them or take precautions. It is said in the commandments do not… Read more »
I don’t trust a person who does not believe that life is sacred. They are not trying to help humanity when they don’t care about human beings from conception to our elderly.
Here are the Senators who voted against criminalizing infanticide and protecting innocent, born-alive babies: My question? Why did 3 Republicans not do their job. This was too important to not vote. Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) Michael Bennet (D-CO) Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) Cory Booker (D-NJ) Sherrod Brown (D-OH) Maria Cantwell (D-WA) Ben… Read more »
Very good question. All three should be asked that question directly.
This why this issue must be a litmus test for how we vote for the people who represent us. If they voted for killing babies or voted against outlawing the killing of babies then they MUST NOT GET YOUR VOTE. No matter what the other issues are the RIGHT TO… Read more »
I am in a situation where the small Church my husband and I are members has an adult SS teacher that is a pro- abortion Democrat. He has the usual excuses like ‘rape’ but it sounds really lame. This is a small town and we really like the man as… Read more »
Donna – thanks for the comments and for relaying your situation. I would encourage you to read Scott Klusendorf’s The Case For Life. I think you’ll find some wonderfully helpful, gracious arguments for life that you can discuss with your teacher. It isn’t about making enemies -it is about using… Read more »
What slavery issue? I am a born and raised southerner and there is no one in their right mind who would support slavery in our country today. I also do not see the correlation between slavery which was outlawed 150 years ago and the right to life which until forty… Read more »
That born alive child is a U.S.Citizen by virtue of the 14 amendment Of the Constitution of the United States, If the child is born alive and anyone causes its death, then its murder.
Excellent point
I have often wondered why the Government doesn’t fund the “adoption” of these babies instead of the “abortion” of these babies. Many people who would love to adopt find it too expensive to pursue. Let our Government support life instead of death
Amen ..Never Give Up
Hey I totally agree with what you said and it saddens me to hear the truth of how this happened. We as Pro Life and Christians need to take a stand for the babies! How can anyone be a Christian and agree to this. Thanks for sharing this video. God… Read more »
You are very welcome.
We are becoming so “lukewarm” in our approach to evil, evil is winning for now. Many Christians don’t bother to vote. How sad. Our pastors need to be more proactive on this. They don’t because, they have forgotten what the “separation of church and state was really about. Do a… Read more »
Unwanted ? I can name a lot of people who would give their right arm to have one of the so called unwanted “babies I’m one of them . I’d give anything to be able to care for one. Just give me a chance !! They should think about all… Read more »
I do not understand WHY that would not come under murder!! If someone takes the life of another living, breathing human being, ! God help us all. Has Liberalism gone into such a wide realm that NOW they endorse MURDER? GOD help us ALL!
Thank you, Mr. Fisher. The church has been asleep on this issue for too long. If this isn’t a wake up call, what is? Either we rise up and stop this, or sit back and wait for judgment, personally and nationally.
Amen, and thank you.
I am a firm believer that life of a human being begins at time of conception and that noone has the authority to alter that human life. Politicians and others that believe life is nothing more than a piece of meat and continues to pass laws and agendas murdering born… Read more »
This incredible vote on the part of the Senate is incredulous. This one single issue of abortion/infanticide will demand a Divine Justice response…..(.man assuming the right to destroy God’s most precious creation.)…..and, furthermore,to add insult to injury Satanically. considering it an actual good that must be guarded and protected.. This… Read more »
All humans are made in the image of God Himself. To kill a human is to kill the image of God
Isn’t that exactly what our increasingly secular nation wants? Our society is bound and determined to protect the rights of everyone but the innocent unborn and now born babies. Once you accept the idea that any group is less than human then no one is truly safe. I thought this… Read more »
ABORTION, and now INFANTICIDE, are the most egregious examples of our “THROW-AWAY” CULTURE
Can you make this shareable?
Car – the link is shareable – you should be able to just cut and paste the link into other platforms.
I listened to your video and I have a question of my own. First I can say that every time I voted for the RIGHT candidate I was out voted. Two, I send e-mails and faxes to my , supposed, representatives in Congress and even those members from different States.… Read more »
Lydia – I fully understand your frustration. I’m sending out a blog post in a few days about 10 things we can do in addition to our normal petitions to our elected officials. I hope that helps.
Looking forward to that blog post.
Abortion always kills a living human being!
Does this mean the bill will or will not go to President Trump?
The bill in its current form did not advance and thus will not go to Trump.
Will it go back to the House to be disapproved then to the President?
I meant approved.
My understanding the bill is currently dead unless someone chooses to revive it and try again.
Point of clarification – I was notified today that Republicans have now tried 11 times in the House and twice in the Senate to get this bill to move. All 13 attempts have failed so far. Not sure why it is not moving forward in the Senate, but suffice it… Read more »
This is sad beyond belief! Yet ask anyone who is alive if they are happy to be alive. I can’t believe how many people are so
cold-hearted and selfish! Murderers!

It is horrid o think that people are so eager to kill a new born baby . What has happened to the people of this country who want to kill new born babies!!
Thank you for your efforts on behalf of the newest of lives, the babies! God bless your ministry.
I thought life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for US citizens was guaranteed by our constitution. Born babies are covered by these guarantees. Who is defending the constitution that the members of our government are all sworn in to uphold???
Exactly. If they fight to protect he children of illegal aliens how can they condone the killing of a newly born child who is under our Constitution a natural born citizen.
