Murder, By Any Other Name - Psalm 94:20-21
Shall the throne of iniquity, which devises evil by law, have fellowship with You? They gather together against the life of the righteous, and condemn innocent blood. - Psalm 94:20-21
“A rose is a rose is a rose.” “It is what it is.” These seemingly simple cliches represent an example of the Law of identity which states that each thing is comprised of its own unique characteristics and cannot be confused with anything else. The concept has been around since Plato described it in 369 BC. A simpler representation of the law would be that you can paint a pig to look like a horse but it still remains a pig. But I digress, so let me get to the point - murder is murder no matter how it is differently described or by whom it is committed.
“And God spoke all these words, saying: ‘You shall not murder.’” - Exodus 20:1, 13. Common misinterpretation had this particular Commandment forbidding the act of killing. It is murder that God is forbidding by the 6th Commandment, not the mere act of killing.Killing is often a distasteful action necessitated by self-defense, in time of war, or as sanctioned by the governing authorities because of some reprehensible criminal act, like murder. But murder is always murder, especially in the case of innocent blood.
“Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb is a reward.” - Psalm 127:3. Every human conception is ordained by God and touched by His almighty hand. No matter what the evil doers of iniquity say, children, innocent children, are being murdered by legal decree in America! Roe v Wade is nothing more that a legal decision made by godless individuals who would not recognize that it is God who delivers innocent human life! “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.” - Jeremiah 1:5.
Roe v Wade is an evil law devised and upheld by wicked men and women. It condemns innocent blood and allows other wicked men and women to murder infants in the womb! “He who justifies the wicked, and he who condemns the just, both of them alike are an abomination to the Lord.” - Proverbs 17:15.
We must come to agree that human life within the womb is still innocent human life created by God! “For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb.” - Psalm 139:13. And God will not overlook or give into the evil machinations of mankind. “Keep yourself far from a false matter; do not kill the innocent and righteous. For I will not justify the wicked.” - Exodus 23:7. No woman’s desire to end a pregnancy trumps the sanctity of human life! Shame on the woman who justifies the murder of her own flesh and blood with the chant, “It is my body and I will do as I like.” Shame on the woman who arrogantly declares that she has the Constitutional right to murder her own baby. The Constitution states that “No person shall be . .
.deprived of life . . .without due process of law.” And when an infant is deprived of his or her life while still in the womb, there has been no due process!
Know this: even if we have had or know someone who has had an abortion, God is still willing to forgive us all now! But we cannot remain silent on the matter nor can we continue to use murder for the sake of convenience. God will not be mocked. Murder is murder no matter who commits it, even if it is sanctioned by the government. Man’s laws cannot and will not supersede God’s sovereign law. Let us all pray for the end of the Roe v Wade era in America and may we seek and pray for the forgiveness of those who have sinned in action, complicity, agreement or silent assent.
