Death penalty for killing a baby

"They shed innocent blood, the blood of their sons and their daughters...
and the land was polluted with blood..." (Psalms 106:38 NIV)
The death penalty for killing a baby. Monday afternoon, the jury that
convicted Scott Peterson for killing his wife Laci and their unborn baby
Conner recommended that he be put to death for his crimes. Peterson was
charged by the State of California for killing his wife as well as for
killing his unborn child, making it a special circumstances case eligible
for the ultimate penalty........ death.
Why is it that if Scott Peterson is going to be put to death for killing
his unborn child, one baby; why isn't every abortion doctor in this nation,
guilty of killing hundreds, even thousands of babies, also on death row for
doing the same thing?
The key to the prosector's arguments was always the fact that he not only
killed his
wife, but also his baby. Sadly, too many men kill their wives but at most
they receive a sentence of life in prison.
However, the hypocrisy is that most people today agree with the prosecutor
also support
a woman's right to kill her baby, they are PRO CHOICE, or calling it what it
really is, PRO DEATH! I have to admit that I am very confused. How can it
be such a heinous crime for Scott Peterson to kill his baby, yet perfectly
acceptable for a woman to make the choice to kill her baby?
I am absolutely lost at how one is a crime worthy of death and the other is
an acceptable
choice.
Furthermore, I am equally confused how Peterson, who made the choice to kill
one unborn baby will spend his life all alone in a tiny cell on death row
awaiting the day when the State of California will put him to death, and
doctors all across this nation who make the choice to kill hundreds and
thousands of unborn babies go home every night to nice
comfortable homes and look forward to all of the great things life has to
offer.
IF SCOTT PETERSON CAN BE PUT TO DEATH FOR KILLING ONE BABY, EVERY DOCTOR
THAT PERFORMS AN ABORTION SHOULD ALSO BE PUT TO DEATH!!!
The fact is, several dozen states now have "fetal homicide" statutes on the
books. But to get these "fetal homicide" statutes passed, state legislators
had to make ONE HUGE exemption. You guessed it. In cases of abortion with
the mothers consent, these statutes do not apply to the abortion doctors.
Do you see what twisted logic has to be used to accommodate sin?
For those of you who support a woman's right to slaughter her innocent baby,
please save the emails with your tortured arguments. The fact is life comes
from God. At the moment of conception there is a living person with an
eternal soul. To kill that life for any reason is murder. PERIOD!
Also, for those who are against the death penalty, comparing that issue with
abortion is like comparing apples to oranges. The death penalty, for which
there is clear and concise Biblical support, is the punishment society
enacts on those who made the choice to commit the most heinous acts. The
bottom line is abortion is killing an innocent baby who had no choice, the
death penalty is society's punishment for someone that has been found guilty
of choosing to commit a heinous act against society. The baby is innocent,
the person sentenced to death is guilty.
I am speaking directly today to anyone that may be contemplating
having an abortion. Just remember this.
No matter what anyone tells you, it is MURDER. There is simply no
justification for it at all. You only have two
options. Have and raise the child, or put the child up for adoption.
Also, let me say a word to those men and women who have the scar of abortion
in
their lives. Sadly, many women AND men that have
made this sad choice at some point in their life. Some of them did this 40
years ago and are still dealing with the hurt, and pain, and guilt.
You can't go back and change what you have done, but 1 John 1:9 says that if
we confess our sins, God forgives us and cleanses us of all unrighteousness.
The Bible also tells us that God not only forgives our sins, but forgets
them. It is satan who reminds you of your past sins to keep you paralyzed
from serving God. HE IS A LIAR!!! Now is the time to trust God's Word, and
put it behind you once and for all. God still has much for you to do with
your life.
I am thankful for this high profile case that made the clear statement
killing an innocent baby is MURDER! We need to once and for all take our
Federal Government out of the business of legally sanctioning the annual
slaughter of millions of innocent lives! How can we expect God to bless our
nation when we allow this to happen? How long can we mock God without
feeling His wrath? How far can we push God's grace?
Once I read in the Old Testament how God's very own chosen people lived in
blatant rebellion to Him. God tried to warn them. He sent messages through
the events of their day. They
ignored the messages. He sent His prophets to warn the people to repent and
turn back to God. They wouldn't listen to his messengers. Eventually, God
punished His people for their rebellion.
Our nation is less than 300 years old. We have been richly blessed with
incredible wealth and power, but we are not immune from God's wrath. God is
speaking to us through the events of our day and through those He has called
to warn the people. I pray that we will listen, repent of our sins, and
turn our hearts back to Him before it is too late. Killing an unborn baby
IS murder, whether it happens in an act of violence by a husband or in a
legal clinic!

I think this was a case that was tried in order to set the standard for the future. It is a baby step for the children in our future! Maybe they will have more value than being a number now. Maybe they will be considered a part of God's creation. A part that deserves a chance to live.
We've always believed that. Many women learn it the hard way. They are told they are being rid of "a product of conception" etc. I heard a young girl say one time (she had a miscarriage at about 4 or 5 months) that when she delivered that baby, she heard it cry and then die.
The doctors who make a living off of the slaughter of the innocents know exactly what they are doing soon after they begin.
The man who sheds man's blood shall by man have his blood shed. (Say that three times real fast). For in the image of God made He man.
Genesis 9:6
