What?
Do you trim your ways to seek love? For this reason you have even taught the
evil women your ways.
Also on your skirts is found the
blood of the souls of the poor innocents; I did not find them by breaking
in, but on all these. Yet you say,
Because I am innocent, surely His anger shall turn from me. Behold, I
will judge with you, because you say, I have not sinned.
Jeremiah 2:33-35
Whoever sheds man's blood, his blood shall be shed by man. For He made man in the image of Elohim. Genesis 9:6
You shall keep far away from a false matter. And do not kill the innocent and the righteous; for I will not justify the wicked. Exodus 23:7
These six things Yahweh hates;
yea, seven are hateful to his soul;
a proud look, a lying tongue, and
hands that shed innocent blood,
a heart that plots evil plans, feet hurrying to run to mischief,
a false witness who breathes lies, and he who causes strife among
brothers.
Proverbs 6:16-19
Every day in America alone, 3,000 babies will be killed in their mother's womb. The alarming call for the blood of innocent babies, continues unabated! Here are some statistics:
Abortion Statistics - World - U.S. - Demographics
In 54 countries (61% of the world population) abortions are legal.
In 97 countries (39% of the world population) abortions are illegal.
There are approximately 46 million abortions conducted each year, 20 million of
them obtained illegally.
There are approximately 126,000
abortions conducted each day.
Abortion Statistics - U.S.
Approximately 1,370,000 abortions occur
annually in the U.S. according to the Alan Guttmacher Institute. In
2001, 1.31 million abortions took place.
88% of abortions occur during the first 6 to 12 weeks of pregnancy.
60% of abortions are performed on women who already have one or more children.
47% of abortions are performed on women who have already had one or more
abortions.
43% of women will have had at least one abortion by the time they are
45
years old (this statistic includes miscarriages in the term "abortion").

Every day 136,000 babies are murdered! How can this be? The calling for blood is nothing new! This has happened in bygone days prior to the Exodus!
And
the king of Egypt said to the midwives of the Hebrews, of whom the name of one
was Shiphrah, and the name of the second, Puah;
and he said,
When you midwife the Hebrew women, and
look on the birth-stools, if it is a son, you will kill him; and
if it is a daughter, it shall live.
And the
midwives feared Elohim, and they did not do as the king of Egypt said to them.
And they kept the male children alive.
Exodus
115-17
Here the King of Egypt ordered selective murder of the innocent males, while allowing the females to live.
In Psalm 106 Yahweh speaks specifically against killing innocent children and babies. He says of His people: They mingled with the nations and adopted their customs. They worshipped their idols which became a snare to them. They sacrificed their sons and their daughter to demons. They shed innocent blood, the blood of their sons and daughters whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan and the land was desecrated by their blood. Psalm 106:36-38
Their feet run to evil, and they hurry to pour out innocent blood. Thoughts of iniquity are their thoughts; wasting and ruin are in their ways. Isaiah 59:7
A
Scientific View
Just 18 days after
conception, the baby's heart begins to beat. At six weeks, brain waves can be
measured. At eight weeks the vital organs are functioning and fingerprints have
formed. At nine weeks, the unborn baby is able to feel pain. Over 700,000
abortions each year are performed after this point in the pregnancy. By the
beginning of the second month, the unborn child, small as it is, has begun to
look distinctly human, though the mother may not even be aware that she is
pregnant! By the time the baby is eleven weeks old, he or she breaths (fluid),
swallows, digests, sleeps, dreams, wakes, tastes, hears, and feels pain. Babies
born prematurely can survive outside the womb as young as 20-25 weeks old. Yet,
all that is necessary to make the baby a grown human being is already there from
the moment of conception. All it needs is time to mature.
Former Surgeon General, Dr. C. Everett Koop stated
"We now know when life
begins because the test-tube baby proves that life begins with conception.
What do you have in the dish? An egg and a sperm. What do you add to it to get a
baby? Nothing." Though it is wee, it is still a real person, just as a crumb of
bread is still real bread. No one who has been given the gift of life should
dare despise the day of small beginnings. Have we forgotten so quickly that we
were once as small?
"In the tiny, almost invisible thirty two cell blastocyst--in that one gram or
so of tissue--there is a physical potential and moral destiny unparalleled in
our universe. Next to it, a gram of plutonium is a triviality: plutonium cannot
compose a symphony, cannot cure cancer, cannot plan our course to the stars".
-Bernard Nathanson, M.D.
and former abortionist-
If you live on this earth long enough-you will hear every sick argument possible
for the justification of killing babies. Here are the statistics and
reasons for having an abortion, and the reasons for giving abortions!
| reason | % of abortions | |
|---|---|---|
| rape or incest (Notice how low this stat is!) Emphasis Mine! | 1 | (0.4-1.3) |
| mother has health problems | 3 | (2.8) |
| possible fetal health problems | 3 | (3.3) |
| unready for responsibility | 21 | |
| is too immature or young to have child | 11 | (12.2) |
| woman's parents want her to have abortion | <0.5 | |
| has problems with relationship or wants to avoid single parenthood | 12 | (14.1) |
| husband or partner wants her to have abortion | 1 | |
| has all the children she wanted or all children are grown | 8 | (7.9) |
| can't afford baby now | 21 | (21.3) |
| concerned about how having baby would change her life | 16 | |
| doesn't want others to know she had relations or is pregnant | 1 | |
| other | 3 | |
Another AGI study[8], conducted in 2000-2001, examined contraceptive use but provides some information relating to reasons for abortion. Some data from this survey of 10,683 women obtaining abortions is given below:
| reason or situation | number | % of abortions | |
|---|---|---|---|
| not using contraception | 4,957 | 46.40 | |
| forced to have relations | ~64 | 0.6 | |
| using contraception | 5,726 | 53.60 | |
| contraceptive failed despite proper use | ~1,808 | 16.9 | |
| total | 10,683 | 100 | |
In this survey, 0.6% reported being forced to have relations (although a figure as high as 0.8% is possible depending on data breakdown). It is also interesting to note that 17% of abortions were for pregnancies following "proper" use of contraception. This would tend to undermine the claims regarding the efficacy of contraception methods, something highly promoted by groups such as Planned Parenthood.
An AGI study published in 2005 [22] was modeled after the 1987 study, providing an update to that work. This survey was conducted from December 2003 to March 2004; of approximately 2,000 women obtaining abortions who were surveyed, 1,209 completed questionnaires. As with the 1987, only rounded percentages as opposed to raw numbers were reported. Again, respondents could give multiple reasons, and the median number of four reasons were given. The table below gives reported percentages for the most important reason and for all reasons cited.
| reason | % of abortions, most important reason |
% of abortions, all reasons |
|---|---|---|
| rape (Notice these two stats; because abortionists use these to justify | <0.5 | (1) |
| incest abortion) (Emphasis Mine!) | (<0.5) | |
| mother has health problems | 4 | (12) |
| possible fetal health problems | 3 | (13) |
| unready | 25 | (32) |
| is too immature or young to have child | 7 | (22) |
| woman's parents want her to have abortion | <0.5 | (6) |
| has problems with relationship or wants to avoid single parenthood | 8 | (48) |
| husband or partner wants her to have abortion | <0.5 | (14) |
| has all the children she wanted or all children are grown | 19 | (38) |
| can't afford baby now | 23 | (73) |
| --unmarried | (42) | |
| --student or planning to study | (34) | |
| --can't afford baby and child care | (28) | |
| --can't afford basic life needs | (23) | |
| --unemployed | (22) | |
| --can't leave job to care for baby | (21) | |
| --would have to find new place to live | (19) | |
| --not enough support from husband/partner | (14) | |
| --husband/partner unemployed | (12) | |
| --currently on welfare or public assistance | (8) | |
| concerned about how having baby would change her life | (74) | |
| --would interfere with education plans | 4 | (38) |
| --would interfere with career plans | (38) | |
| --would interfere with care of children or dependents | (32) | |
| doesn't want others to know she had relations or is pregnant | <0.5 | (25) |

I have highlighted some of the responses in each category for the reasons given! Needless to say, I am more than distressed about these so-called reasons for MURDER! Notice the stats on rape and incest, because these two reasons are the major ones cited for justifying abortions.!
Sons
of Israel, hear the Word of Yahweh, for Yahweh has a quarrel with those living
in the land; for there is no truth, and no mercy, and no knowledge of Elohim in
the land.
Swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and the committing of
adultery increase.
And blood touches against blood.
Hosea 4:1-2
The lack of knowledge concerning Father Yahweh's laws against murder, are clearly evident in this modern evil era! Crying out against murder in any fashion, will save the lives of Abba Yahweh's human creation. There is joy over even one sinner that repents! Consider the saving of one of Elohim's creation that was created in the image of Elohim! Does this matter? Should we try and save the human race from itself? Yes! We must reveal Almighty Yahweh's will to the human race! And the commandment as follows must be made known!
You shall not murder. Exodus 20:13
לא תרצח׃
H7523
רצח
ratsach
raw-tsakh'
A primitive root; properly to dash in
pieces, that is, kill (a human being), especially to murder: - put to death,
kill, (man-) slay (-er), murder (-er).
Is there an exception to this law? Not where pre-meditated murder is concerned! Life is precious! Life is sacred if we believe that we are created in HIS image! Are you also troubled by the seemingly endless killing of human life? BTW Abortion is pre-meditated MURDER!
O
Yahweh, until when shall I cry for help, and You will not hear? I cry out to
You, Violence! But You do not save.
Why
do You make me see evil,
and You look upon toil? For destruction and violence are before me; and there is
strife, and contention rises up.
On
account of this the law has become feeble, and justice does not go forth with
continuity.
For the wicked surrounds the righteous, so justice goes forth, being perverted.
Habakkuk 1:2-4
Perhaps you have even wondered why abortion is legal! Why should anyone with a conscience want to take the life of an innocent child? Why would any right thinking individual want to kill at all? Does Satan have that much control over the thought processes of the human race? Who controls your mind? We need to continue this with at least another part!
Yours in Yahshua, Hawke
