In Defense of Life

January 22, 2003 marked the thirtieth anniversary of Roe v. Wade — the birth of our national holocaust against the unborn. It is important to remember that God still cares about babies. Of such is the kingdom of Heaven. Whether they be embryos fighting for their lives against the mad scientists which populate fertility clinics and genetic research labs, or newborns deemed “unworthy” because their little minds won’t develop the way yours and mine have developed, or even children viewed as disposable because their imperfect bodies cause a drain on the American insurance industry — God knows each precious life by name and loves them with an infinite love.

Is Innocent Human Life Ever Negotiable?by Daniel Becker, June 17, 2008
As we enter the twenty-first century, Christians find themselves in the midst of a raging debate regarding the future of the pro-life movement. As we face new and emerging medical technologies, many tough questions are raised: Should we in the pro-life movement accept that some classes of human life are expendable? In this penetrating article, Dan Becker, President of Georgia Right to Life, maintains that we must defend the “the Personhood of all human life.” Read More
The War on the Weakby Douglas W. Phillips, Esq., January 14, 2004
This afternoon the Florida Senate voted 23-15 to approve a measure which formally authorized Governor Jeb Bush to issue a one-time order reinstating Terri Schindler-Schiavo’s feeding tube. It is expected that the Governor will sign the bill and order the tube replaced. Read More

A Father’s Farewell to His Sonby Mark Stubblefield, March 10, 2003
Several months ago, I witnessed a tragedy that forever changed my perspective on the time that I have been given on this earth. During an evening drive on an icy Missouri highway, I was waved to the side of the road to help at the scene of a car accident. Read More
The First 100 Waysby Herbert W. Titus, J.D., January 21, 2003
Abortion, pro-lifers say, can never be safe, certainly not to the child. Nor, they claim, are they safe for the mother, citing the growing literature, demonstrating that even the so-called “medically safe” abortion is dangerous to the mother. Read More

War and Peaceby R.C. Sproul, Jr., January 21, 2003
As I write, these United States are on the brink of war. That, of course, is not all that unusual in our day. In the last thirty-some years, we have waged war in Afghanistan, Bosnia, the Gulf, Somalia, Panama, Grenada, Libya, Nicaragua, and Vietnam. (And these are only the ones we know of.) All of these wars have at least one thing in common: never did Congress declare war. All but the last have this in common: they were over almost as fast as they began. The Vietnam War was different.

Roe v. Wade and Biblical Patriarchyby Phil Lancaster, January 21, 2003
The 1973 Roe v. Wade decision legalizing abortion in America is about death, but it is not only about the death of the forty million unborn children who have been sacrificed on the altar of expediency. Morally sensitive ears can indeed hear the rising cry of these image-bearers of God as they call out for justice in response to the shedding of innocent blood. Read More

A Year of Miraclesby Joshua Goforth, January 17, 2003
We are approaching the thirtieth anniversary of the landmark ruling of the Roe v. Wade case which devastatingly changed the way our justice system views human life. A number of articles will be published on this topic by journalists across the nation, but I would like to focus your attention for a moment on some of the peripheral damage that has been caused by this radical change in view.

Why the Life of the Mother is Not a Valid Exception for Abortionby Douglas W. Phillips, Esq., December 16, 2002
Susie, a mother of five children, finds herself and her three-year-old year son Johnny adrift at sea in a tiny one-person raft. They are hundreds of miles away from the nearest boat or landmark. The prospects look grim for both mother and child. On board is a container of water and food. Read More

A Declaration of Lifeby Douglas W. Phillips, Esq., March 6, 2002
The Bible tells us to “be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear” (1 Pet. 3:15b). The message of the Gospel is an inherently life-affirming message of hope, yet many Christians still struggle with the answers to the defining crime of our generation — abortion. Read More
With Wings as Eaglesby Annette Janecek, January 5, 2002
I wanted to thank you for your lovely letter and update on baby William’s life. It was such an encouragement to our family. We had prayed for little William when he was in the hospital and we are so thrilled to know that he is doing so well. Read More
