Sadly, the SOUTH AUSTRALIAN ABORTION REFORM BILL lost by one vote and that vote was made by a supposedly “conservative” in the same party that proposed the Bill.
The sweet Psalmist of Israel wrote in Psalm 139:14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. 15 My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. 16 Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.
Not that those intent on murdering the unborn would care what the Bible has to say but Paul did write in Romans 1:29, 30 that there are those who are “filled with all unrighteousness,…wickedness, maliciousness; …murder…30 …haters of God, despiteful, proud,…” There will be a day of reckoning before the Creator!
However, enlightened man today will NOT submit to the Creator so therefore the murder of the unborn is just another form of “healthcare”. The following is from the Australia’s left leaning THE CONVERSATION .
Each of the stories portrayed on gravestones during the demonstration were real-life testimonies of victims who had either lost their lives to euthanasia or were offered assisted suicide as a reasonable alternative to adequate support.
Alan Nichols (61) was euthanised in Canada. His only listed condition, and reason for seeking assisted suicide, was hearing loss. His family, left traumatised by his death, were convinced that he should have been supported to live rather than euthanised. Alan’s brother, Gary, stated that, “He was basically put to death … he needed some help from us, but he was not so disabled that he qualified for euthanasia.”
Godelieva de Troyer, a 64-year-old woman who had battled severe depression for years, was euthanised in Belgium without her family being properly notified or given a chance to ask her to reconsider.
In the Netherlands, after a long struggle with mental health and depression, 29-year-old Zoraya ter Beek was euthanised on the grounds of unbearable mental suffering that could not be remedied. Despite being physically healthy, she was not supported to live and overcome her depression but was rather encouraged that death was the only escape for her.
Revealing the justified distrust that legalising assisted suicide causes in patient-doctor relationships, after failed palliative care treatment in Belgium, Alexina Wattiez (36) died after her nurses smothered her with a pillow.
Matthew 2:16 ¶ Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently enquired of the wise men.
