7 Make no mistake: God is not mocked, for a person will reap only what he sows,

8 because the one who sows for his flesh will reap corruption from the flesh, but the one who sows for the spirit will reap eternal life from the spirit.

9 Let us not grow tired of doing good, for in due time we shall reap our harvest, if we do not give up.

Did you know, In just two years there are more unborn American babies (more than 2.4 Million) that die from abortion than all the Americans that have died from all our wars (less than 1.4 Million).

Honor to our soldiers:

Suction Abortion is where they suck the unborn baby out of the mothers womb with a vacuum.

Dismemberment Abortion is where they take forcepts to dismember the babies parts and pull them out of the mother womb. They rip the legs, arms, and body apart to extract the unborn baby. Then they crush the head to remove it.

Partial Birth Abortion is where they deliver everything but the head of the baby, They then stick a pair of scissors into the back of the neck of the unborn baby to seperate it's spine. Then they use the vacuum to suck the babies brain out.

Do you support the suction abortion, the dismemberment abortion, or the partial birth abortion?

Which of the above is a choice for the unborn baby?
