Matthew 19:18 ESV “And Jesus said, “You shall not murder…”
Editor’s Note: Throughout the scriptures, God has made it clear that shedding innocent blood is murder, and no murderer will enter heaven. In addition to the death of the unborn baby, abortion also substantially harms the women and many times, families, husbands, boyfriends and a whole sphere of relationships connected to and surrounding each abortion. Often, lifelong guilt and other social, relational, spiritual and even physical problems follow the murder of innocent babes in the womb. Pastor Jim Bakker believes that this issue, abortion, may be the single most significant issue that brings God’s judgment on this nation more than any other.
World groups are using the 34th anniversary of China’s “One Child” policy to condemn the country for the millions of forced abortions carried out since the policy’s introduction.
The group Women’s Rights Without Frontiers sent a letter to Chinese President Xi Jinping condemning the ongoing forced abortions in the country and the fact the government celebrates the killing of babies.
“Your government has boasted that it has ‘prevented’ more than 400 million births through this policy. These births have been prevented through forced abortions, involuntary sterilizations, confiscatory ‘terror fines,’ gendercide and infanticide — all in violation of international human rights law,” the group wrote.
The group condemned the new “two-child” policy adopted by the government for any parent who is an only child. They said the forced abortions will continue under the new policy.
“Allowing a relatively small number of families to have a second child will not end gendercide or sexual slavery in China,” the group wrote.
“The selective abortion and abandonment of baby girls is most prevalent in the countryside, where couples already can have a second child if the first child is a girl. Even if the most recent modification were to improve gender ratios at birth, the impact on sexual slavery would not be felt for decades to come.”
