Pro-lifers in the United States have always assumed that if they could demonstrate beyond a reasonable doubt that the fetus is a human person, then it would be only a matter of time before the courts and legislatures would declare nontherapeutic abortion — the willful destruction of a living fetus — unjustified homicide. Thus the pro-life view would be vindicated and nontherapeutic abortion would once again be illegal.

Some days the battle seems too huge and victory only elusive - especially when I engage in a conversation with one who claims Jesus as Lord and Savior, yet, have voted for the worst baby butcher to ever have walked the earth.
I don't understand. And, mostly desire not to try. A failure of mine.

Either Pres Obama is a liar or ignorant.. or both?
Even an elementary understanding of the founding of the United States of America illuminates the essential role of Christianity in her forming. Pres Obama is an absolute world-wide embarrassment.

Many flock to churches over money concerns - what about the blood?!
It is a sad state of affairs in America, the Beautiful, most blessed by the mercy and grace of God if only by withholding their mammon might His people seek to draw closer to Him. Even worse, shoudn't we, His people have sought Him sooner to relieve the continuing slaughter of our most prescious and innocent children within their own mother's wombs?
And, now, our mammon through taxes, is being used world-wide to murder even greater numbers of babies! Is it any wonder that He is drawing back His provisions to us through the legislative actions of those now leading America?
The harvest is great - and, few are the workers. Many 'churches' will miss the point completely. Their focus will continue to be on mammon and not on God. Those created in His image are being destroyed before their first breath ... and, shockingly, some after their first breath!
God help us, all.

Submission? ... Romans - think!!
"Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgement on themselves. For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same. For he is God's minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God's minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil. Therefore you must be subject, not only because of wrath but also for conscience sake. Because of this you also pay taxes, for they are God's ministers attending continually to this very thing. Render therefore to all their due: taxes to whom taxes are due, customs to whom customs, fear to whom fear, honor to whom honor" Rom 13:1-7
Tricky business, applying scripture to current events. Could the first couple of lines indicate that whomever resists the Obama regime is resisting God? And, will surely bring judgement upon themselves? By application, Obama is not a terror to good works and he is a terror to those who do evil - like abortionists?? .... hmmm.... something is not jiving with this model of application. Obama seems to approve of baby murder so much that he has authorized the distribution of the tax money I give to him, for the good of America, to instead do evil worldwide in the form of billions of dollars for baby butchering abortionists in other nations.
How can this be? Obama is God's minister to us for good? Murdering babies is good? Obama is an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil? What, he will execute wrath upon his own self? Things seem to be a bit twisted. Is it possible that this bit of scripture, and others like it, cannot be applied at all times and in all situations?
A side thought: Obama has not yet produced a valid birth certificate to qualify as a presidential candidate. Why not, Mr. Obama? Such a simple thing to do to satisfy the now numerous active law suits against you by concerned American citizens. Why no birth certificate? I do not accept this breach of the Constitution of the United States of America. Should I accept a man who would take the office of President by pistol and force - a coup? I think not! Yet, there he is! How can this be? Only by the hand of an angry God? How many babies have we butchered?... ?
The prophet Jeremiah had to endure an evil ruler. He was captive and even imprisoned for speaking the truth of God. The promise of a restored nation gave him hope; of a restored nation after the ravages of evil rulers had left but a remnant of God's people to rebuild.
"Thus says the Lord: 'Again there shall be heard in this place - of which you say, "It is desolate, without man and without beast" - in the cities of Judah, in the streets of Jerusalem that are desolate without man and without inhabitant and without beast, the voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voice of those who will say: " Praise the Lord of hosts, For the Lord is good, For His Mercy endures forever" - and of those who will bring the sacrifice of praise into the house of the Lord. For I will cause the captives of the land to return as at the first', says the Lord."Thus says the Lord of hosts: 'In this place which is desolate, without man and without beast, and in all it's cities, there shall again be a dwelling place of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down." Jer33 10-12
Well, I wonder, is history to be repeated again? If we are to submit to evil - or perish - is God going to remove the evil rulers after a time and only a remnant of Godly people are left in captivity? Will a day come in America where the shepherds and their flocks can safely dwell? Or, are we waiting for something that shall never come till His Kingdom comes?
'Til then, I am not sure what to do with this command of submission... except, definitely, to pray.
