169. Pro-Choice

Revelations 3:20  Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door,

John 14:23  Jesus replied, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word. My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make Our home with him.

Luke 12:37  Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching:

Joh 3:16  For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. And this is the verdict: The Light has come into the world, but men loved the darkness rather than the Light, because their deeds were evil.…

I recently saw a posting that said “Just because I am Pro-Choice does not mean I am Pro-Abortion.  It means I understand your choice is none of my business, and I will always fight for your right to choose”  I wonder if this logic holds true for incest of children or physical/mental abuse of children.  Aren’t these parents just choosing what to do with their child?  If a neighbor, friend, or relative knew of incest or other physical abuse and did not report it or did not try to stop it they would be considered cowards and outcasts for doing nothing.  We have laws that protect children from these abuses so people are prone to step up and report or intercede in other ways for the children.  Does it make sense then that life in the womb should not also be protected with the same moral/ethical cultural code?  Pro-Choice is how progressive societies handle the murder of unborn children and feel good about themselves by saying it is your choice so I am stepping out of this one.  I wonder if a person who is choosing to impact change on the laws concerning abortion would have the same support from the Pro-choice group.  Would the Pro-choice group say it is none of their business?  Or would they say it is none of my business?  You see how this plays out, don’t you?  Is Pro-choice only for those choosing abortion and not for those who are choosing to protect the life of the unborn?

If you were given an opportunity to choose and had means to affect the outcome of a parent about ready to commit sexual abuse on their child would you say “Pro-Choice” – none of my business, or would you affect the outcome by stopping it?  If you came into a culture where it was legal and condoned to sexually abuse children would you stand by and say “Pro-Choice” – none of my business or would to try to impact change to the laws and the moral convictions of the people?  Would you say this is not about “Pro-Choice” it is about sexually abusing children?  What if that culture said it was ok to pick and choose what children should live or die based on convenience, or financial need, or mistake………or whatever, would you still think this is about “Pro-Choice” or would you say this is about murdering innocent children?  How can we as a society come to a place in our thinking that we say one thing inside the womb “Pro-Choice” and another on the outside of the womb?

God is all about pro-choice.  He gives everyone the choice to believe in Jesus Christ or not. He says that if we choose Him He will never leave us or forsake us.  He says if we choose Him He will be our rock, refuge, strength, hope, and everlasting Father.  He gives everyone the choice to receive His grace, mercy, and love or not.  He gives everyone the choice to confess, repent, and become a humble servant.  He gives everyone the choice to honor, follow, trust, and obey Him.  He gives everyone the choice to commit to follow and love Him more than the world and what it has to offer.  He gives everyone the choice to read His word and desire to know and understand Him more.  He gives everyone the choice to choose to do good.  He gives everyone the choice to listen for Him speaking to their heart.  He gives everyone the choice to choose to be kind, forgiving, generous, peaceful, truthful, joyful……..  He gives everyone the choice to choose and lets them know if they choose wrong (rejecting His Son) they will be judged and condemned to torment for eternity.  He gives everyone the choice to choose to open the door to their heart and soul to Him.   

Turning a blind eye and deaf ear to God’s choice(s) will ultimately allow society to form thoughts that see no wrong in killing the unborn.  Tolerance to this injustice in the name of “Pro-Choice” is absurd!
