We interrupt our regular January Thursday posting of apologetics links round-up to have this special post on the tragic anniversary of Roe VS Wade.
The guys at Crown Rights (the guys who put together the documentary “How to Answer the Fool”) has worked on a project called ” Babies Are Murdered Here.”
For today (Jan. 22) the film will be free to be watch online starting at 7 AM if you go visit their website at Babies Are Murdered Here.Com
Here’s the Trailer:
Here’s an internet show that interviews Marcus Pittman behind the film:
May the Church of God Wake Up and be used by God to stop this abortion holocaust.

Thanks SlimJim. Saw the movie. The fact that Christians abort their babies usually shows that they are not “in Christ.”
Some of the most atrocious persecutions against Christian engage in side walk Prolife counseling has been “Christians” in my experience. Something just fires them up when they tell you that they are a Christian and you don’t let that stop you…
The movie was much better than I expected. I’m glad I watched it. The tone was just right, appealing to the conscience rather than scream, shock and awe…
How very true… what a great need for Christians to stand against this modern day holocaust.
Praying that this day will be an opportunity for the Gospel to be shared and the Lord use for bringing people to salvation

Thank you for re-blogging this brother.
I watched this and there are a few things I will say. First of all I live R.C. Sporul Jr. and his dedication to the pro-life cause and how he always calls out churches for not going far enough is a big part of that. There are a few things about the film though that I don’t entirely agree with. One is where the guy is saying that we are punished with natural disasters because of abortion. I think it’s always a dangerous statement to make to attribute a natural disaster to any specific sin. The other issue is their approach, yes our goal should be to make abortion murder in the eyes of the law but their approach seems a bit confrontational. I have found that people are more willing to actually listen to what you have to say when you approach it with love, I have gotten people to reconsider their position by rational dialog. I just question how successful their approach is.
Let me clarify though, I do think it is necessary for us to be out there and be persistent and firm but we need to be wary of our emotional tone and language use.
Amen
Hey BDUB!
I appreciate it whenever you comment and share your insight/input. I too was rather cautious when the preachers said that natural disasters were the punishment for our national sins of abortion. Like you, I think it is dangerous to say some natural disasters are for a specific sin because it is speculative if it’s not from God’s revelation that it is so. However, it made me think a bit tangent that if there’s ever a national sin that deserves God’s wrath right now in the present age it would be concerning abortion.
What in particular did you find not loving in these guys approach? (A certain minute into the video, what they did, etc).
I thought their voice outside the abortion clinic was just right (not screamers, not compromisers).
I re watched it to find the specifics. It starts from the very beginning he’s talking about two scenario, yelling “you’re a wicked evil murderer” or “offer a cup of water in the name of Jesus”. Sproul suggests a third option. I think what we need to remember is that Jesus was hardest on the pharisees therefore our harshest criticism should be toward church’es that aren’t condemning it.
I think one of the concerns I had was when they show show Abby Johnson in 23:42 talking about her experience and how she was rather put off of it by the way they were treating it. However on the other hand thinking about it I have met people with just the opposite experience.
One specific area I found could be an issue was at 26:40 they responds by yelling “you’re a murderer.” I don’t think that’s the best way to handle it even if it’s the truth even though it didn’t appear this lady was going to be convinced anyway.
After re-watching it I will say it did a good job where it counts. Ultimately the video does address the law and gospel of it well summed up where RC Jr. says “We must not make the mistake of thinking that since Jesus can forgive it, it’s not a big deal. We must also not make the mistake of thinking that it’s such a big deal that Jesus can’t forgive it”.
I’m going to be reading soon Abby Johnson’s book. It’s interesting that you mentioned her–there’s a bit of a back story with this one, with an exchange with the producer of this documentary and Abby Johnson about a year ago. At first I was inclined to agree with Abby Johnson until she talked/tweeted more, I think she has a wrong theological understanding of abortion that is at root of her pro-life approach.
Personally, I’m not really a guy who tend to yell, but I have no problem with using the Law as the basis of pointing out to someone committing abortion as a murderer. The desire is not to be mean but to be faithful to the Scripture and see abortion in biblical categories.
Thank you, SLIMJIM for this post. This was a great video. People will say that they were unloving in their tone, but I did not see anything unloving about it. What I saw was just passion and concern. It is a voice that is not only concerned for the mother’s eternal future, but the baby’s life. If they do not voice their concern right away, then in a a few minutes, the baby will be murdered.
It is a different case when you are evangelizing in a abortion context. You don’t have much luxury in terms developing a reason for Christianity. You may need to be straight to the point because the baby’s life in a instant moment could be wiped out. So in this case, they plead with urgency.
I am in agreement with you here brother especially with how I saw the tone of the Prolife Christians. As the video made clear the whole discussion of what abortion is, is out the window outside the clinic because they know what they are doing. You see the conviction in their eyes and attitude.
