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.
Kansas is the first state to ban the abortion process where they dismember babies during their removal.
Govenror Sam Brownback signed the SB95 law Tuesday banning dilation and evacuation abortions. The Senate approved the bill 31-9 while the House passed the law 98-26.
The law says it will now be illegal to “knowingly dismembering a living unborn child and extracting such unborn child one piece at a time from the uterus through the use of clamps, grasping forceps, tongs, scissors or similar instruments that, through the convergence of two rigid levers, slice, crush or grasp a portion of the unborn child’s body in order to cut or rip it off.”
The process, which is common in second trimester abortions, stops the child’s heart and then the child is removed from the uterus in pieces.
Pro-abortion groups like Trust Women and Planned Parenthood said they’re considering lawsuits to block the law.
Missouri, Oklahoma and South Carolina are considering similar legislation.
