Department of Health planning for 6500 children to be aborted every year – 1 in 4 Northern Ireland births.

On Friday the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, Chris Heaton-Harris MP, instructed the Northern Ireland Department for Health to fully commission abortion services in Northern Ireland, effectively signing a death warrant for tens of thousands of children.

Early commissioning documents obtained by Abolish Abortion NI showed that the Department of Health were planning to create an abortion regime capable of murdering up to 6500 children every year. This will mean 1 in every 4 children will be murdered before birth.

Mr Heatton-Harris’ intervention, as well as the enormous pot of money he announced in last week’s budget, now provides the Department of Health with the means and motive to make their abortion holocaust a reality in Northern Ireland.

Below are some of the events we have planned for this week as we continue to fight back.

Episode 3  of our series streams Monday

As part of their 2021 General Assembly the Presbyterian Church in Ireland adopted a report that rejected the abortion abolitionist position. In doing so, however, the church has now adopted a theological position that is at odds with much of church history and the Westminster Confession of Faith.

The relevant section of the Public Affairs report, which has implications far beyond the abortion issue, was titled ‘The Theology of Exile’ and can be seen on page twelve of this document.

Last week we examined the document’s claim that Christians should be pragmatic in the public sphere by asking ‘Should Christians compromise with evil?’. This week we will be discussing how the church should engage with the world.

There are elements of this report which appeared in today’s “Times” newspaper (again, sent to me by a friend) that must be noted.

I. It is clear that perverts will decide who is guilty of a hate crime!

Guidance from the Crown Prosecution Service “any crime can be prosecuted as a hate crime” if it meets specific criteria. The bar is reached, according to an agreement between prosecutors and police, if an offence “is perceived by the victim or any other person, to be motivated by hostility or prejudice, based on a person’s disability or perceived disability; race or perceived race; or religion or perceived religion; or sexual orientation or perceived sexual orientation or transgender identity or perceived transgender identity”.

Note the words : “is perceived by the victim or any other person,”

That means that the matter is decided by those who hate the truth of God and claim that they are offended by it and therefore a victim of a hate crime! Someone who has thrown over God’s natural order cannot be considered ‘rational’ and therefore their opinion is a very poor basis for initiating criminal proceedings!

II. Prosecutors have taken up the role once occupied by the persecutors of John Wycliffe and all those who suffered to give us the Bible in our native tongue! Some 800 years ago they too changed the law to outlaw the Bible.

 “The Anti-Wycliffite Statute of 1401 extended persecution to Wycliffe’s remaining followers. The “Constitutions of Oxford” of 1408 aimed to reclaim authority in all ecclesiastical matters, and specifically named John Wycliffe as it banned certain writings, and noted that translation of Scripture into English by unlicensed laity was a crime punishable by charges of heresy.

The Council of Constance declared Wycliffe a heretic on 4 May 1415, and banned his writings, effectively both excommunicating him retroactively and making him an early forerunner of Protestantism. The Council decreed that Wycliffe’s works should be burned and his bodily remains removed from consecrated ground. This order, confirmed by Pope Martin V, was carried out in 1428. Wycliffe’s corpse was exhumed and burned and the ashes cast into the River Swift, which flows through Lutterworth.” (more…)

These two reports which appear in today’s ‘Belfast Newsletter’ will be of interest to our readers. They were sent to me by a friend who often keeps me informed of such news items.

There is cause for great concern in both of these articles and also they should awaken believers to the direction the nation is moving in ever more rapidly.

The words of Bible prophecy are being fulfilled before our eyes.

“But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; how that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts. These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit. But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.,” Jude 1:17-21.

“I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; and they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables,” 2 Timothy 4:1-4.

But a glorious day is coming when the Lord will return to judge the mockers and deniers. A day of deliverance and conversion for Israel but also a day of mighty blessing for the nations of the earth.

“The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem. And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the LORD’S house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem. And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more,” Isaiah 2:1-4.

Such is the hope of the child of God, brightening these dark times which we know shall give way to the wonderful ‘Day of the Lord’! (more…)
