The Horror of Abortion

January 21, 2007 by Alex Chediak

On January 22, 1973 the Supreme Court ruled that women, as part of their right to privacy, have a qualified right to terminate their pregnancies under certain conditions. Since that time, over 47 million innocent babies have been killed.
Mr. John Ensor discovered that a disproportionately high number of abortions are committed in five states, one of which is Florida (the others included California, Nevada, New York, and another). And 40% of the abortions in Florida occur in Miami. John Piper’s sermon this weekend (not yet posted) highlighted the ministry of John Ensor in Miami appropriately called Heartbeat of Miami. From their website:

Heartbeat of Miami is a bold and winsome call to the Christian community to open 3 to 5 pregnancy help centers in the neediest neighborhoods of Miami over the next two years. These centers will be equipped with ultrasound and staffed by nurses, trained peer counselors, and volunteers from the Christian community. When established they will save thousands of women every year from the violence and agony of abortion- in direct competition to the nearly 40 (!) abortion facilities operating in Miami.

Beyond Miami, the strategy is to raise up new crisis pregnancy centers in the urban centers of the USA where a staggering 94% of America’s abortion facilities exist. In essence, going toe-to-toe against Planned Parenthood. This strikes me as a wise plan to maximize effectiveness at saving lives while raising the consciences of the nation to the fact that loving Christians stand ready to help those experiencing unwanted pregnancies at every step of the process (not just before the baby is born).
This sobering and moving video can help us further appreciate the horror of abortion, and resolve to hasten the day when to be pro-choice is unthinkable.

Praise for With One Voice

This relatively short book packs a powerful bang for the buck, providing much biblical and practical advice for young men and women seeking to glorify God in relationships.

Alex and Brett Harris
Best-selling authors of Do Hard Things

Alex and Marni Chediak offer sound biblical advice and a clear Christian framework for working through the maze of confusions surrounding modern marriage.

R. Albert Mohler, Jr., President
The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary

Publishers have been cranking out books with all sorts of directions to help Christians navigate the treacherous waters between the buoys of singleness and marriage, and I know of none that is more clear, concise and helpful than With One Voice.

J. Ligon Duncan, III Ph.D.
Senior Minister, First Presbyterian Church

With One Voice is clearly written and God-centered. Our eighteen year-old daughter just read it and restrained herself from underlining nearly the whole thing!

Dr. Bruce A. Ware
Professor of Christian Theology
The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
