Day 91
Amidst the barrage of sad sad news spilling out of Virginia, you might have missed some good news. The law signed in 2003 by President Bush that bans this type of savage murder of our youngest, most helpless citizens has been upheld by the nation’s highest court. This means that partial birth abortion is officially illegal. It’s a battle won in the great war over the government-allowed massacre of babies.
But as much as I am against abortion, I am even more for a genuine change of heart brought on by the regeneration of the Holy Spirit the moment a person trusts Christ alone for salvation.
You see, you can picket all you want, yell and scream at the opposite side during rallies, wave pictures of aborted children, and debate, debate, debate. You might even convince someone that abortion is evil (and it is). But unless that person hears the gospel and gets saved, they’ll just go to hell thinking abortion is wrong.
A believer’s first priority should not be to change a person’s mind on social issues, whether it be abortion, gun control, homosexual marriage, or anything else. A believer’s first priority is to share the good news with the unsaved. The apostle Paul’s aim was never to go and clean up society – and his society was plagued with evil, just as ours is. His aim was to proclaim Messiah.
1 Corinthians 2:2 “For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified.”
