Euthanizing babies approaching

It has been thirty-one years and more than forty million murdered babies since abortion was legalized in our nation. While there have been bills passed to limit certain types of abortion procedures the fact remains that every day in America thousands of babies are murdered.

In a Nov. 30, 2004 article by AP writer Toby Sterling, he reports that a hospital in the Netherlands is euthanizing babies. While they only recently proposed guidelines for these killings, the fact is that doctors at the hospital have already been about the business of ending baby's lives.

The Netherlands was the first nation to legalize euthanasia, thus placing the governmental stamp of approval on murdering the newly born, not just the unborn.

How long will it be in the Netherlands before the decision to terminate the life of an already-birthed baby is made due to marginal medical reasons, and more pragmatic reasons of convenience and money?

How long will it be before an all-out assault is begun to euthanize babies in the U.S. just as in the Netherlands?

We need to pray continuously for the staff and volunteers of the many local Pregnancy Crisis Centers. God may have you to do more ... giving financially, volunteering as a counselor, or helping in one of the other projects they may sponsor. Whatever God leads you to do, by faith, obey.
