RU486 - Australias Shame
The cup of the Lords Wrath will certainly not skip over Australia.
To make matters worse Peter Costello who is meant to have some sort of christian leaning (eg brother Tim Costello) has weighed in heavily with his own personal sob story saying he supports CHOICE.
CHOICE is a very emotive word. Their Choice to murder, choice to do everything against the word of God.
Choice never got man anywhere but further into sin and found more guilty of it. Choice is like the example in pilgrims progress where a lady is in a room full of dust starts sweeping it clean only to find that she stirs up the dust even more. Thank Jesus for the power of the gospel which sprinkles the room with water and by the power of the spirit the inside of a man can now be swept spotlessly clean.

RU486 - Australias ShamePosted by Correy Thursday, February 16, 2006

I'm sorry to hear that Australia has taken this course. I feel that abortion is undoubtedly the greatest moral blight in the world. Unfortunately my own country has turned our back on God's commands in this area as well. God's judgement will surely be poured out upon those who perform this wicked abomination.
Hitler has been officially put into the 'international hate list' for his attempted genocide of the Jews during WWII.
Sadam Hussein is currently on trial for war crimes against the people of Iraq.
Al-Qaeda is being hunted down by the 'coalition of the willing' for killing aproximately 2976 innocent people on september 11, 2001.
Yet if people (especially men) argue against abortion and infanticide they are ridiculed, ignored, told they are narrow-minded, and worse.
"In 1990, 23 per cent of all known pregnancies in Australia were terminated... with around 80,000 women undergoing abortion every year. Our current ratio of one abortion in every four pregnancies is an improvement over the estimated one in three recorded in Australia in the 1930s. Comparatively speaking, Australia's abortion rate is reasonably low by international standards...America has a 30 per cent abortion rate... former Yugoslavia and Bulgaria have recorded abortion rates of over 50 per cent."
What a tragedy!!!!
The only possible arguement for abortion is when the life of the mother is threatened by the pregnancy. This however only occurs in less than 0.1% of abortions in Australia.
I have seen many debates recently about abortion with the ru486 topic being in the media, and there is only way the 'pro-choice' (pro-murder) side can even begin to formulate a reasonable arguement supporting their claim. They must begin with the statement "lets ignore the moral issues for a minute..."
Shame, Shame, Shame, Australia, as a nation, we condem terrorists killing a few but support selfish men and women who would find a child inconvienient.
it is also interesting that Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine, was strongly against both abortion and euthinasia. All his students swore the Hippocratic Oath
"...I will neither give a deadly drug to anybody who asked for it, nor will I make a suggestion to this effect. Similarly I will not give to a woman an abortive remedy..."
Today, all over the world medical students now swear an ammended Hippocratic (the hippocritic)Oath.
"...Most especially must I tread with care in matters of life and death. If it is given me to save a life, all thanks. But it may also be within my power to take a life; this awesome responsibility must be faced with great humbleness and awareness of my own frailty. Above all, I must not play at God..."
Totally against the motives of the 'father of medidicine' Hippocrates.
Very True Gordon.
Modern Day Magi: That is a great perspective you bring to RU486
Abortian pills (RU486) are nothing less than chemical warfare against our own species. They are, quite literally, human pesticides. A nation determines its future by how it treats its children. WE hold in our hands not only the fate of the unborn, but the fate of our nation. Will we remove ou children as we would remove a wart? Will we take a medication to relieve ourselves of our children as we would take an antacid to relieve ourselves of indegestion? (thoughts of Randy Alcorn 'Prolife answers to prochoice arguments' - very appropriate thoughts for today - a sad day for australia)
Katie:
Thanks for these thoughts.
------------------------------
A lady was mocked first by politicians then newsreaders last night when she pointed out the obvious.
Will muslims be taking these pills? No
Within 50 years it is possible that even in Australia they will be in the marjority.
In light of France I think somehow I don't think she was far from the bullseye.
Reverting back to the gospel I think it prudent to point out that the Lord has all these things in his hands. For if we read in the scripture we can see the same pattern happening.
"But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace." Romans 11
In summary: No matter what the world does the Lord will not lose one of those whom he died for. They are kept by the power of God until the day of their salvation.
And once all the elect are saved. The Lord himself will appear in the clouds...
Abortion, in all it's forms is something I force myself to NOT ponder on too much. The reason: it drives me completely crazy with anger and horror.
The murder of the innocent... there is nothing more grotesque.
Our God forgive me, but when I hear of an abortion doctor murdered or harmed, or yet still a woman being injured in the process of an abortion, my heart rejoices. I also find myself hoping Hell-fire on these souls.
Don't misread me here, I do not advocate such wickedness, I really do seek God's forgiveness and sanctification regarding this. But how difficult it is for me to feel any kind of empathy, and honestly hope for the salvation of such wicked murderers.
May the Lord give me the ability to correctly balance this...
"For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved." (John 3:17)
and this...
"Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee? I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies." (Psalm 139:21-22)
Rand
"Do I take any pleasure in the death of the wicked? declares the Sovereign LORD. Rather, am I not pleased when they turn from their ways and live?"
-Ezekiel 18:23
abortion is THE most wicked and upsetting occurane in the world today in my opinion. However i need to believe also that the majority of abortions are commited by women who are ignorant of the facts, and believe the doctors when thay are told the embrio is nothing more than a lump of tissue.
Doctors and nurses performing abortions, as well as the men and women who use their 'right to choose' should be treated with the love of Christ by christians, as it is only Him who can save them and cause a repentance and change of attitude in this area.
People are always going to have sex, mistakes will happens and abortions occur. You can quote scripture from here to doomsday, but it won't change the facts.
Maybe you should put all your energy and passion in doing something useful for society.
Encourage cheap and safe contraception, decent sex education in schools, funding for health clinics, teaching our children to be confident in making choices, not to be pressured or feel obliged to do something they don't want to.
Those practises will lower the abortion rate, not fear mongering and guilt trips.

That would have to be the nastyist and creepyist thing i have read in a long time.
Cozalcoatl:
Unfortunately your wisdom is nothing but foolishness. I am sure you are quite happy to sit by and watch the murder of innocent children and say well it was the mothers choice (even though the male partner more often then not is telling her that there is no other choice) and it is societies fault for not educating them of the proper use of contraception.
"Encourage cheap and safe contraception, decent sex education in schools, funding for health clinics, teaching our children to be confident in making choices"
All these things have failed, are failing and will continue to fail especially now that abortion in Australia will be as easy as taking a tik tac.
You say that we can quote scriptures till doomsday. This is exactly what we will do for it is our passion our love and our duty. For we have been changed Cozalcoatl the Lord has given us a new heart we have been born anew and long for things to come namely eternal life.
You also said: "but it won't change the facts"
Here is the facts: which you will either hate with everything in you, convince yourself that they are not real or they will be the best thing you have ever heard for He will be your salvation. (Psalm 27:1)
There is only one way and that is to escape the wrath to come.
The way is Jesus, there never has been any other way, nor will there ever be.
May you come to know Him!
Pointing out the Obvious
Australia's govourners who voted for this death tik tac and are PRO-CHOICE would be against the death penalty would you think?
Yet they vote in the death penalty for children?
On one side they disagree with the destruction of life for someone proven to have commited murder themselves but on the otherside they vote in the death penalty for an innocent child who has never done anything physically wrong themselves.
Imagine explaining these inconsistancies to God?
Are you thinking that having an abortion pill is going to cause more women to have abortions?
I think those that would never harm their child will still never harm their child, so how is it any different for those that would to do it by pill or by other means, which have always been available?
elissi:
I think that once RU486 is freely available abortions will dramatically increase.
you said
"I think those that would never harm their child will still never harm their child, so how is it any different for those that would to do it by pill or by other means, which have always been available?"
I do agree that it doesn't matter which means they use to murder the innocent they are all wrong.
This year 20 000 children in Australia will be murdered through abortions done in clinics. Would this number not be more if they could do them in the privacy of their own home simply by taking a tablet as small as a tik tac?
What sort of useless men do we have in this country when we hate the women so much that we give them this option?
Would you be willing to give your grandmother suffering depression a suicide pill? Or your teenage daughter with insecurity problems this same pill with reasoning in your heart that "If she wanted to kill herself it is better she use this pill rather then slitting her wrist"
You may be right... sadly the convenience may be a factor for those that would have borne the child simply out of fear of going to a clinic.
But as per your last paragraph, I hope the majority of women can see that it's still the same thing, no matter how easy it seems.
elessi:
It seems to me that these things are happening because the gospel is not being preached in Australia. Not in the streets, not one to another, not in the church.
When was the last time you heard Jesus preached like this?
Salvation to the Uttermost
If you have a look at the letters in the new testament they are all about a false gospel that they "bear beautifully"
Thanks for your comments by the way. Feel free to disagree with this blog wherever you see fit. I by no means say I have all my doctrines/thoughts perfect.
Kind Regards
