Your Opinion: Billion-dollar industry of death

Dear Editor:

Pray that abortions are stopped in Columbia, Missouri, and all across America. The outcry of Planned Parenthood and their desire for the federal courts to block Missouri’s common-sense restrictions for doctors to have admitting privileges at nearby hospitals shows their genuine lack of concern for the welfare of women and the unborn. The love of money is the root of all evil, and Planned Parenthood is a billion-dollar industry of death. They want to tout their concern for women’s healthcare, but their loudest outcry is about the loss of funds from their bottom line if they can’t perform abortions. They have no compassion for young girls who are brought in to abort babies conceived through sexual abuse or other felonious circumstances. Their feigned concern for women is evil on its face. The liberals are experts in mislabeling their agendas. Pro-choice takes away the choice and rights of the most vulnerable and innocent in our society. The hypocrisy and double standards on the left are glaring and astounding. They denounce the death penalty as cruel and unusual punishment for convicted cold-blooded murders, while dismissing the evidenced excruciating pain experienced by the developing baby in the womb when torn limb from limb or burned alive by administering saline solutions used in abortion procedures.

As long as America continues to shed innocent blood in this nation, we will continue to see the judgment of a Holy God. He has promised in His word that vengeance is His and He will repay. Those who discount God and His existence or His power, want to blame hurricanes, wildfires and earthquakes on “man-made” global warming or fracking or the policies of President Trump! What everyone needs to do is examine their own heart and see what kind of motives reside there. If you desire to be your own god and continue to have unrestrained freedoms to do as you please without consequences, then there can be an argument for “man-made” disasters. God is in control of the climate and the seasons and He uses these things and everything in His arsenal of all creation to get our attention. Ultimately, He will return and restore His creation to perfection, but if we want a reprieve and time to get our hearts and homes in order, we better start with calling abortion the premeditated murder that it is and demand it be stopped now.
