Reason to Rejoice but the Gospel must go Forward as we are headed to the End of the Age

Brothers and Sisters, we have reason to rejoice today because of the Supreme Court's decision to do away with the legalized killing of our babies, at least on the federal level. But the struggle is not over, there is still a need for the states to make their decisions.

When the Roe v Wade decision came down from the courts in 1973 we were living in the Bay Area, San Francisco. We heard the decision on the news. I was 19, married and we had a baby. I turned to my husband and asked him "what is abortion", that's just how innocent I was back then.

My husband told me that it was killing a baby while in the mother's womb, I was horrified. I said to him; "we don't have to worry about that law, no mother would do that." How little did I know the hearts of many women? More than 60 million dead babies later we are just now seeing some movement in the direction of protecting babies.

It is sad that half of the people in America are for abortion and the other half are against it. It is a little more complicated than that but many don't care one way or the other.

So what is the answer for our country or any country of the world? The answer is simple and spelled out in the Word of God. The answer is for people to become born again, when this happens their entire perspective on everything is changed. These people have no need of laws because they want to please Christ Who lives in them.

Romans 3:20

"Therefore no one will be justified in His sight by works of the law. For the law merely brings awareness of sin."

A born-again believer hates to sin but if they do, they quickly repent to be cleansed.

1 John 2:1-2 "My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you will not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate before the Father— Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. 2 He Himself is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world."

Our main thrust ought to be the gospel when we speak to people, however, we can use the evil of abortion to show people the need for Christ. We must not speak of abortion alone, we must speak of why it offends God and mankind's need for salvation.

Using the commandments of God to explain the wickedness of the human heart is what Christ and the apostles did, they are a schoolmaster to lead people to Christ. How can someone repent if they don't know they are sinners in need of a Savior.

Just Saying!!!!
