John Piper’s Message To President Obama
The following is a moving video response to President Obama’s statement on the 36th anniversary of Roe v. Wade. If you agree with abortion this I hope will give you something to think about.
If that isn’t enough to convince here are some facts and statistics on abortion from 2003:
- There were over 3,500 abortions per day in 2003, 146 per hour, about one every 25 seconds.
- In 2003, more children died from abortion than Americans died in the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, World Wars I and II, the Korean, Vietnam and Gulf Wars combined.
- The annual number of abortions went from 744,600 in the first year of legalization, to a high of over 1.6 million in 1990. In 2003, there were 1,287,000.
- There have been over 48 million abortions since 1973.
- At an average cost of $372, the abortion business is a $400 million a year industry.
At 48 million that’s the legal annihilation of an entire country (such as S. Korea in 2002). That’s more than just murder, it’s state sponsored genocide. Many women who get abortions call it reproductive freedom, however THAT choice was made when the decision was made to have unprotected sex. Abortion is a cop-out of responsibility. There are many who say that those fetuses are not human, however God creates each and every one of these human beings that we slaughter every day, and He hates the murder of the innocent. Consider this:
There are six things the LORD hates,
seven that are detestable to him:
haughty eyes,
a lying tongue,
hands that shed innocent blood,
a heart that devises wicked schemes,
feet that are quick to rush into evil,
a false witness who pours out lies,
and a man who stirs up dissension among brothers.
