May this year be the year that the church will “Speak for the Weak”
“Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves; ensure justice for those being crushed.
Yes, speak up for the poor and helpless, and see that they get justice.”(Pr 31:8-9)
We do need Persons! The pre-born babies need YOU to take an active part in this army. You know people that we don’t know. We are asking you take time to write down 10 people with whom you could share PersonhoodFL during this next week.
Then make the phone call to share this message with 10 pastors; or friends who will take this message to their pastor. Our hope is to encourage pastors to present a pro-life message to their congregation, followed by a petition signing table.
At our website http://personhoodfl.com/we have included every resource you will need to fight this battle. Download the new Florida ProLife Personhood Amendment. We are excited about the new videos and materials we have added to the pastors section of the web site, http://personhoodfl.com/pastors/. Please watch the clips and join the battle for LIFE.
Share our numerous valuable resources found on the site http://personhoodfl.com/resource-kits/, such as the petition and bulletin inserts to print out.
Why Personhood? Personhood is the Emancipation Proclamation of our day.
Like many Floridians, some of us have been painfully affected and devastated by the reality of abortion, the irrevocable murder of those we wish we could hold and love today. So we have set our hand to the plow of prolife work to build our local Care Nets and Crisis Pregnancy Centers and we have been blessed by God in this effort. Through our post-abortion counseling we are reaching out to the mommies wounded by abortion.
And even as I appeal to mommies as they enter our local abortion site, on 12th and Delaware, we can offer adoption. We have families waiting and yearning for a precious little one offering the gift of hope and life. We are also able to help the mommy by paying delivery costs, helping with housing as well as continued higher education.
But now it is time to focus on the baby. We cannot bring back the millions that we have allowed to be slaughtered, but we can rise up and determine right now, at this very hour, to end this holocaust. As Martin Luther King, Jr. appealed to our consciences, it is time to believe God to raise up a people of conscience, And as James Madison decreed:
“Conscience is the most sacred of all property.”
I was enraged when I read the Dred Scott decision, that a court with some wicked, prejudiced, small-minded men could decide for our nation that our black and African American brothers and sisters were “nonpersons” and could be considered “property”. But saints, that is what the Roe v. Wade decision also does. It has decided that our pre-born are “nonpersons” and are “property.”
But as Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, he appealed to the freed slaves in the North to free the slaves in the south. As this vision caught on and the people who had survived the slavery holocaust rose to the occasion and began to enter the battle, we witnessed Freedom march from the North to the South as Liberty and Equality were extended to another people group at last.
We are commanded to disciple the nations; we are commanded to set the captives free; we are commanded to “Rescue those who are unjustly sentenced to die”. (Proverbs 24:11)
We urge you to come in to this battle with us. We covet your prayers and your labor. As it says in our Florida Constitution, “We, the people of the State of Florida, being grateful to Almighty God for our constitutional liberty, in order to secure its benefits….. do ordain and establish this constitution ……All natural persons, female and male alike, are equal before the law and have inalienable rights, among which are the right to enjoy and defend life ….”
