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.
Planned Parenthood reported a near record-breaking profit of $127.1 million dollars in 2013 as they performed over 327,000 abortions.
The total of 327,653 was an increase of 500 abortions from the previous year despite the rest of the abortion industry seeing an overall decline in the number of infant deaths.
The profit for the group includes over $528 million dollars in taxpayer money that funds of the abortion-celebrating group.
“The big picture is that abortion numbers are sinking to record new lows and that is because of the abortion clinic closures,” Cheryl Sullenger of Operation Rescue told The Christian Post. “Unfortunately, Planned Parenthood has an artificial money stream that comes into their organization from the United States government to the tune of about a half a billion dollars a year.”
“They say that the money doesn’t go to abortions. It goes to other services,” Sullenger explained. “But frankly, it goes into a general fund, and the money gets spent for whatever they need it to be spent for. I think it is disingenuous to say that they have segregated the federal tax dollars.”
The report celebrating Planned Parenthood’s abortions showed that 94 percent of the group’s pregnancy services in 2013 were abortions. The totals show 174 abortions for every adoption referral.
The total number of adoption referrals by the group fell 14 percent.
Polls show that 70 percent of Americans oppose taxpayer money funding Planned Parenthood.
