abortionmatrix.com Chapter 10 -- Tearing Down the High Places by Eric Holmberg and Jay Rogers God will never stop abortion in America -- at least not without catastrophic judgment -- until enough of us pray and act like it is what it is: murder, infanticide, the sacrifice of children in our own back-yards. Always remember that as Christians we are laboring to save lives and souls. Some of the most meaningful evangelistic outreaches occur at the gates of hell -- the abortion clinics of America -- in regard to the people going in as well as those who work there. Norma McCorvey, the Roe of Roe v. Wade, as well as ex-abortion providers Carol Everett, Dr. Bernard Nathanson, Dr. Beverly McMillan, and Joy Davis are just some of those who are not only pro-life now, they have become Christians through the evangelistic witness of pro-life activists. 
 6. Develop vital pro-life relationships, particularly as regards your local church. If your present church is cold or lukewarm on this issue and is not open to change, leave that church and find one that is genuinely committed to being salt and light. And then find a place of service, of genuine engagement in the battle. Unity, covenantal relationships, accountability and mutual encouragement -- all our critically important in keeping your heart burning and your efforts focused, faithful, enduring and ultimately victorious. 
7. Be faithfully politically. At minimum that involves supporting pro-life candidates for local, state and national office as well as putting pressure on your elected officials to support life issues. Yes, there are other important issues besides abortion. But none are more important. It is the only thing we are sanctioning as a society that completely and irrevocably denies the victim her right to her most basic, constitutionally protected rights -- life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. A candidate who isn't right on this issue cannot possibly be a righteous ruler. When the righteous increase, the people rejoice, but when the wicked rule, the people groan. Proverbs 29:2 As a nation America has sanctioned child-killing now for over a quarter century. It's become an accepted, deeply entrenched and increasingly tax-payer supported evil. Stopping it may seem to some an impossible dream. Well, it's not the first time the God of the impossible has thrust his people into impossible situations. "For nothing will be impossible with God" (Luke 1:37). Consider Moses as told Pharaoh to let God's people go...or later stood before the Red Sea with Egypt's army in hot pursuit. Ask Gideon as he took on the armies of Midian or Nehemiah as he set out to rebuild Jerusalem. And just less than two centuries ago, people said "It's not possible!" to William Wilberforce as he took on the slave trade. Our God is God of the impossible -- One who delights in using the weak and foolish things of the world to defeat the worldy-wise and powerful. But God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong (1 Corinthians 1:27). There can be no doubt that should a remnant -- a Gideon company, if you will -- arise and obey God in regard to the truths we've explored in this presentation, God will once again hear from heaven, forgive our sins and heal our land. If my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land (2 Chronicles 7:14). May the LORD help you to be one in that company. AMEN
