Disturbing Polls Show Majority of American Christians are Ambivalent on Abortion
In this week's episode of Defending Faith, Family, and Freedom with Gary Bauer, senior vice president of public policy at the James Dobson Family Institute, Bauer shares his deep concern over results from recent polls that show a majority of Christian Americans are ambivalent on the issue of abortion. These same Christians come to this conclusion because they believe the Bible is silent on abortion. Bauer says that these individuals are woefully mistaken. The Bible's affirmation of life and the preborn is clear and extensive through the Word of God. Citing Deuteronomy 30:19, "This day I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live." Bauer says that according to news reports, despite President Biden's poor poll numbers, he and his re-election team haven't a care in the world because they know Biden has an ace up his sleeve—abortion and women voters. Word is out that the President plans to spend tens of millions of dollars aimed like a laser at women. These ads will tell women that their right to an abortion is on the ballot, and only Joe Biden stands in the way of Donald Trump and the Republican Party taking that right from them. The Biden team believes that for women, access to terminate a pregnancy, from conception up to birth, trumps every other issue, including a woman's ability to afford to feed their family, buy a car, purchase a home, or even the threat of world war. Bauer says he prays they are wrong and pleads with Christians to get off the sidelines and vote for life and religious liberty in November! Both are on the ballot.
