Russia Bans Abortion Advertising

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.

Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a law that will ban abortion advertising as part of a crackdown on the country’s advertising restrictions on medicine.

Reuters reports Russia’s abortion rates are among the highest in the world and that it has become one of the most common methods of birth control in the nation.

“As long as society fails to recognize the value of human life, and wantonly destroys it in large numbers, it will be difficult to establish a new three-child norm. Abortion must cease being a way of life in Russia if her people are to survive,” Steven Mosher of the Population Research Institute, told LifeSite News.

Pro-abortion advocates are furious over the new law saying that it violates a woman’s rights by not allowing abortion clinics to advertise.  They said the move just increases persecution of women in the nation that began in 2011 when Russia passed a law banning abortions after the 12th week of pregnancy and required a 48 hour waiting period for an abortion.

One thought on “Russia Bans Abortion Advertising

  1. I find it interesting that a country such as Russia has more conservative laws regarding abortion and the sodomite life style than the USA has. I wonder which country will be judged more harshly. For those who think this is hate speech…you can love the sinner without condoning their behavior. The world is a mess but God is still in control of it.
