Why did we show those bloody photographs May 21 in Chattanooga?
Because people need to see what a child looks like after he or she has
been in the hands of an abortionist at a abortion clinic. Without the
pictures, the words which describe what they do to the preborn lack
punch and are easily forgotten.
After 31 years of State-legal baby-murder, it is time for the American
people to see who is dying. The media has censored the preborn child
from the "abortion debate," and we are simply attempting to bypass that
media blackout by going to the streets and showing the American people for themselves exactly what a preborn child murdered by abortion looks like.
We show these photos to inform our nation that it has violated God's
Law, and to call its people to repentance. Our photos stand as a
haunting indictment upon our nation.
Some say our photos are disgusting and hurt our Christian witness. Our
response: have you ever seen a pretty picture of a murder? Murder is
disgusting; abortion is murder; therefore, our pictures are disgusting.
Also, what hurts our Christian witness more - being silent while our
neighbor is unjustly killed or exposing the evil works of darkness
[Ephesians 5:11] by showing the atrocities being committed against our neighbor? We think the former. What a pathetic people we are if we want to tolerate the oppression of an entire people group, but then become
outraged when someone displays the suffering of that people group.
At the end of WW II, our American soldiers marched the citizens of
Germany pass the remains of those who died in the death camps. They
marched men, women, and children past the remains of those who died in
the death camps. Why did they do it? Because those citizens all stood
guilty for having tolerated the atrocities that went on in their midst.
So it is in America today. We all stand guilty for being silent while
this atrocity goes on in our nation.
May people be moved with compassion for the helpless preborn when they
see these photographs and act to see this bloodshed outlawed. Otherwise,
God will use His sword of justice and bring retribution upon a nation of
people whose hands are covered with blood.
