Abortion
On January 22, 1973—45 years ago today—two Supreme Court decisions (Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton) effectively legalized abortion for all nine month of pregnancy for any reason or no reason at all.
The result: 60,069,971 abortions in America since 1973.
However, as was apparent at the recent March for Life, there is still Hope For Life.
Wherever there’s life, there is God’s grace and Christ’s compassion.
There’s hope for us.
There’s hope for them.
There’s hope for you.
God never gives up, and neither do His people.
“Set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.” (1 Peter 1:13b)
