STATEMENT ON ISSUE 1:
The passing of Issue 1 is a dark stain on Ohio’s history. The installation of preborn child murder as a fundamental right in our state is an unconstitutional perversion, and a moral abomination before Almighty God, the Sovereign King of Kings, and Lawgiver.
Our
#VoteNo
signs are going up all over the state as Ohioans are unashamed to say "Abortion is murder, not a right".
Praise God for His people in this state who aren't afraid to speak boldly and prophetically in the face of evil. Jesus is King! 👑
"gut-wrenching decisions that should be made by parents."
Sounds familiar. This is the same verbiage that is used to justify abortion.
Mutilating a child's body is not a medical decision, it is child abuse, and ought to be criminalized.
Just as tearing a preborn child apart
Ohio's Republican Gov. Mike DeWine has vetoed a bill backed by his fellow GOP lawmakers that would ban gender transition treatments for minors and trans athletes from girls' sports - saying they're "gut-wrenching decisions that should be made by parents" and informed by doctors
Our bill, Abolition of Abortion in Ohio Act, was poised to be introduced on September 13th. This would have been the first bill of complete and total abolition in Ohio. It would have guaranteed equal protection to the preborn and criminalized the act of abortion.
Early on,
A board member at Ohio Right to Life has emerged as a lobbyist against a bill to abolish abortion in Ohio, while the Center for Christian Virtue worked to persuade a Republican lawmaker to renege on filing the bill.
Polls are open until 7:30pm tonight. Vote NO on Issue 1.
Above all, pray and rally your church to prayer. May the LORD our God incline His ear to "to do justice to the fatherless and the oppressed, so that man who is of the earth may strike terror no more" (Psalm 10:18).
Thankful to have these brothers and sisters with us this week to assist in this great battle for Ohio.
Make sure you check out this event tomorrow night at THE Ohio State University 👇🏼
Ohioans go to the polls on Tuesday to decide Issue 1: whether to enshrine abortion as a right. Roughly half will suppress the truth and vote 'Yes', and roughly half (those with a functioning conscience) will vote 'No.' But deep down, all Ohioans know that abortion is murder.
If you haven't yet, make sure to watch this important, and eye-opening exposé on Mike Johnson and pro-life pragmatism.
The abolitionist position is marked by having Scripture as our rule of faith.
We hearken to the word of God–––not to the winds of political expediency.

As promised, here is the shocking behind-the-scenes story of HB813, the historic bill to abolish abortion in Louisiana. This bill was worked on by Pastors Jeff Durbin and

Claim: "Your unwillingness to compromise is going to cause the GOP to lose elections."
Answer: Our populace supports abortion because they are unrepentant. We will never reach our goal of abolition without calling people to repentance.
Compromise won't bring true repentance.
@DerekMerrin
The Equal Protection Clause of the U.S. Constitution is, and always has been, the best and morally right path to abolish abortion. Our state legislature should immediately pass a bill to recognize "persons" as being from humans from conception and let the Courts take the case.
With the misinformation coming from radical pro-abortion advocates it can be hard to know the truth about Issue 1.
That's why we will continue to share the harm this amendment would do to the great state of Ohio.
Only an appeal to the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th amendment can undo the grievous error of Issue 1, and abolish abortion in Ohio.
Equal Protection is the only path forward.
Contact your legislators, and ask them to support the "Abolition of Abortion in Ohio Act."
The main group behind this, End Abortion Ohio, is hoping they can use the 14th Amendment in the US Constitution to rule that the state constitution is now in violation of the equal protection clause. This is often called the "personhood" argument.

Why is abortion legal in red-majority states? It's not mainly due to the pro-abortion industry...

The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the power of God for salvation, and it is the only message that will meaningfully drive away the abominable darkness of abortion, and it is needed now more than ever in Ohio.
End Abortion Ohio will not jettison the word of God in this fight.
Amen. Republicans will use the language "common-sense" and then advocate for incremental/partial measures.
If the preborn are persons, then the only morally valid and consistent route is to apply the same laws that protect you and I as born persons to the preborn as well.
The only “common-sense” law regarding abortion is outlawing and criminalizing all of it from conception, without exception, & holding every party involved accountable for murder.
Thank you for this call to action, Pastor! If every church leader in Ohio would speak with such clarity, we would certainly see victory in defeating these wicked schemes.
I stared into the face of unmitigated evil and Ohio's Issue 1 is what I saw.
Don't be fooled by the word games and sophistry. This is a bloody amendment.

At first, Pence seems to rightly argue that consensus doesn't determine morality, but then immediately uses the consensus of poll numbers to regulate preborn murder at 15 weeks.
By what standard should we legislate? By the standard of God's word. Equal justice for all.
Heated exchange here between Mike Pence and Nikki Haley on abortion as Pence challenges her: "To be honest with you Nikki, you're my friend, but consensus is the opposite of leadership."
Voting against Issue 1 will not ban abortion in Ohio. Ohio's current reasonable abortion laws would remain the same.
Voting for Issue 1 will allow abortion all the way up to the point of birth and remove health and safety protections for women. It's too extreme for Ohioans.
@CCVPolicy
Will you repent of your role in killing a bill that would have stopped the bloodshed of the preborn?
"When you spread out your hands,
I will hide my eyes from you;
even though you make many prayers,
I will not listen;
your hands are full of blood" (Isaiah 1:15).
Just a reminder that the
@ohiogop
has a supermajority in the House and in the Senate and yet the murder of preborn children is still legal in our state.
This is great and all but is meaningless if they do nothing with their super majorities. What’s the point of expanding our power to legislate if we still refuse to use it?

Thanks for having this conversation, Allie! We are pushing an abortion abolition bill in Ohio right now and can personally testify to the truth of what Bradley says. Many of the major pro-life organizations here do not want this bill to be introduced. It is all true.

Amen. This is an issue of the highest concern for God does not take the shedding of innocent blood lightly. He will hold each one of us accountable for how we vote today. Stand up for the innocents and vote NO on 1.
Today Ohioans vote on Issue 1. As a minister of the gospel of Christ, I must plead with you to vote no against Issue 1. For any fetus that is aborted is a baby that is murdered, and each one of those babies are made in the image of their Creator who loves them.

We are working to abolish abortion in Ohio to the glory of God.
We believe in God's Providence, are Gospel-Centered, desire Equal Protection, are Church body driven, hold the Bible as our authority, and seek the immediate, uncompromised abolition of abortion.
#EndAbortionOhio
Issue 1 is an attempt to shed innocent blood.
Anyone who knowingly votes for Issue 1 takes part in this attempt, & if it passes, will bloody their hands with the blood of the preborn.
The LORD hates the "hands that shed innocent blood" (Prov 6:16–17).
Repent, turn to Christ!
Amazing, another abortion abolitionist victory! Ohio Republican Party take note, this is the type of candidate we the people expect, and we won't settle for less!
@ohiogop
As cowardice and compromise plague the Ohio Legislature and our pro-life organizations, it is imperative that we stand for Biblical justice.
We will not back down from calling for the immediate abolition of abortion.
Welcome to the abolitionist movement. Join us on Sept 13th.
Abortion has not been abolished in any state.
Abortion has not been abolished in these states precisely b/c the pro-life movement adds in immunity clauses, which provide for the continued legality of abortion.
Apply the laws equally. Criminalize abortion. Establish justice.
Pro-life media outlet Life News downplays the number of abortions occurring in states claiming to have banned the procedure, falsely asserting in several instances that some states now have zero abortions, according to an analysis by
@RepubSentinel
.
"What is it?" A question that needs to be relentlessly put forth.
If what is in the womb is a human being, then, by the decree of God, it is our duty to protect that life.
Abortion is murder, and everyone knows it.
Love your preborn neighbor, vote NO on Issue 1.
We hit the streets in Xenia and Enon today to make the case to Ohioans that it is our duty before God and neighbor to protect the preborn and vote NO on Issue 1.
Scott's thinking is steeped in partiality. His moral crusade is late-term abortions but he is content with a min. standard of 15 wks.
He says late-term abortions are immoral, unethical and wrong.
True, but so is murder at any stage in a person's life.
Vote YES today, and join us in fervent prayer!
"Through you we push down our foes; through you we tread down those who rise up against us.
For not in my bow do I trust, nor can my sword save me"
(Psalm 44:5–6).
If you know any Ohioans, send them a text to make sure they show up and vote yes today. This initiative is very important to preventing legal mass murder from going into the Ohio Constitution in November.

There are several issues here with Haley's egregious take on abortion.
1. Haley says she is pro-life because of personal experience. Here's the issue: What makes her experience more authoritative than another's? Here, Experience becomes the arbiter of truth/morality.
Thank you for
@GinnaCross
for speaking out on this 👏🏽
This type of messaging simply confuses voters and confuses the issue.
The amendment is about enshrining in Ohio the right to slaughter preborn children.
Would anyone know whether this is a pro-life or pro-abortion ad without digging into the posting org?
“Anti-parent”???
“Women’s health and safety”???
Lotta words to say absolutely nothing.
We hear this all the time–––and unfortunately, not just from the pro-abortion side.

This is how you message against a pro-abortion initiative if you actually want to win. The pro-life leaders are so addicted to hyper-winsomeness and catering to the left that they will not consider any other tactic.

The Church is no longer going to tolerate partiality and compromise.
If you’re a pastor in Ohio, let’s connect.
@circastephen
Yes, prenatal homicide is currently legal in Ohio. Prenatal homicide should be criminalized because intentionally killing innocent human beings is murder.
It is not that the pro-abortion amendment is radical, but that it is villainous; not that it is extreme, but that it is murderous; not that it is “out of touch” with the public, but that it is contemptible in the eyes of God. Let us call evil what is evil & denounce it as such.
“We should oppose this amendment since it makes it less safe for mothers to murder their children.”
It is to the utter shame of Ohio’s pro-life leaders that they sold out to this godlessness.
There’s no other way to put it than to say this messaging is from the father of lies.
There is no essential difference between abortion at 12 weeks and abortion at 36 weeks because there is no distinction of essence between a preborn person at 12 weeks or 36 weeks.
Let us not fool ourselves that we are making progress.
Equal justice for all the preborn.

This leads way to an interesting thought experiment:
If pedophilia was enshrined in our state constitution via ballot initiative, would you call for it to be regarded as null and void?

Some would say yes, & not just pro-choicers.
Abortion abolitionists, who call for criminal penalties for women who abort their children, also condemn the mainstream pro-life stance. Here’s why:
