Abortion and the Conscience of the Nation by Ronald Reagan

Here is an excellent anti-abortion article written by President Ronald Reagan in 1983.

Abortion and the Conscience of the Nation

EDITOR'S NOTE: While president, Ronald Reagan penned this article for The Human Life Review, unsolicited. It ran in the Review's Spring 1983, issue and is reprinted here with permission.

The 10th anniversary of the Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade is a good time for us to pause and reflect. Our nationwide policy of abortion-on-demand through all nine months of pregnancy was neither voted for by our people nor enacted by our legislators — not a single state had such unrestricted abortion before the Supreme Court decreed it to be national policy in 1973. But the consequences of this judicial decision are now obvious: since 1973, more than 15 million unborn children have had their lives snuffed out by legalized abortions. That is over ten times the number of Americans lost in all our nation's wars. CONTINUE READING

Happy 450th Birthday to the Belgic Confession!

The Belgic Confession turns 450 years old this year. Wes Bredenhof has a nice tribute on his blog.

This year marks 450 years since the Belgic Confession was written by Guido (or Guy) de Bres.  The Confession made its appearance late in 1561, famously being tossed over the castle walls at Tournai (or Doornik, as the Dutch call it).  However, it is quite likely that the Confession was written already early that year.  In his authoritative book on the Confession, Dr. N. H. Gootjes suggests that it may been written already in February of 1561. CONTINUE READING

Seven Thoughts on the Assassination of Bin Laden

An insightful post by Douglas Wilson.

1. Assassination is not necessarily an ungodly tactic. Ehud was a righteous judge in Israel, and he was used by the Lord in the assassination of Eglon (Judg. 3:21). It is not to be condemned out of hand.

2. The biblical response to this kind of thing is not uniform. There is a sense in which we are to say that God does not delight in the death of the wicked (Ezek. 33:11), and that would include the death of this wicked man. Yet there is another sense (not contradictory, but in paradox), in which God delights to execute judgment in the earth. CONTINUE READING
