CUMBERLAND A Republican lawmaker from Anne Arundel County is building support for a Personhood Amendment to the state Constitution and plans to introduce a bill “to a somewhat reluctant legislature” as soon as next week.
Delegate Don Dwyer of Glen Burnie discussed some of the finer points of his draft legislation late Wednesday during a conference call organized by supporters from across the country. The call took place less than a week after the 36th annual March for Life in Washington.
“My goal in this whole thing is to open up the public debate on the majesty, the magnificence and the glory of life,” Dwyer said. “I want to force my colleagues to have to recognize that based on science, not rhetoric ... that there is no doubt that that is not mere tissue in a womb ... that is a human being in the process of development by the miracle of life.”
Dwyer said Delegates Wendell Beitzel and LeRoy Myers, both of whom represent portions of Allegany County, are two of more than two dozen supporters of the legislation. But the Judiciary Committee member is in a unique position to understand just what obstacles he faces among colleagues in Annapolis.
“The majority of members of the legislature ... are absolutely adamant pro-choicers,” Dwyer said. “There are going to be some people who do not want to have to look at the fact that life begins at conception.”
Western Maryland appears supportive of his cause. Many of those pro-choice votes come from Montgomery and Prince George’s counties and Baltimore City, Dwyer said.
“The challenge there is going to be to mobilize the Christian base in each of those jurisdictions to look at this issue,” Dwyer said. “That’s a process that’s going to take some time.”
Dwyer said Delegate Joseph Vallario Jr., Judiciary Committee chairman, “committed to me (Tuesday) that he will not stop me or try in any way to impede a public hearing.”
Supporters and those who have advocated a similar amendment at the federal level or in different states helped Dwyer fine-tune some of the language during the call.
[continued...]
Dwyer insisted the focus of his bill is on life and not an anti-abortion stance.
“That’s not at all what I’m going to be focusing on,” he said. “I’m going to talk about life. Abortion isn’t going to be a word I’m going to use in any of my public discussion.”
Admittedly, during private audiences, Dwyer will discuss “the culture of death,” a phrase borrowed from a supporter on the issue. Dwyer said it makes sense society would be numb to “kill the unborn in the womb” when people are regularly exposed to modern music, news broadcasts and videos that appear to condone and glorify such activity.

2009-2010 State-Level Personhood (and other selected) Legislation:
- Including State-Level Personhood Bills and Constitutional Amendments
- MD, ND, SC
Updated February 10, 2009
In addition to the Maryland State Constitutional "Personhood" Amendment reported above, other states with active "Personhood" legislation to ban abortion include:
1) North Dakota (H.1572) - filed January 19, 2009, House Committee hearing scheduled February 10, 2009

God's requirement for Murder is JUSTICE, not Regulation !!!
__________________________________________________________
For those who understand that abortion could have been stopped at any time for the last 36 years, and can still be stopped at any time, almost immediately, simply by vesting legal "personhood" status at fertilization, without exceptions for ALL pre-birth human beings, these developments in MD, ND, and SC are good news. Establishing "personhood" at fertilization, with no exceptions, "collapses" the (so-called) legal argument for child-murder-by-abortion, according to the text of the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision itself !
The "personhood" solution to ending abortion was actually spelled out right in the text of the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision:
Columbia Christians for Life, Columbia, South Carolina
From: http://www.christianlifeandliberty.net/, "RTL Act of SC" page:
Right to Life Act of SC - news conference and "Jesus Christ is Lord of the Gates" pro-life rally - Jan. 17, 2006
www.christianlifeandliberty.net/H3213-S111-1032.doc
In the very text of the Roe v. Wade US supreme Court decision it states, “[Texas] argue[s] that the fetus is a “person” within the language and meaning of the Fourteenth Amendment… If this suggestion of personhood is established, the [pro-abortion] case, of course, collapses, for the fetus’ right to life would then be guaranteed specifically by the [14th] Amendment.” In other words, there never would have been legalized abortion under Roe v. Wade. But tragically, Texas had an “exception” which undermined their entire “personhood” argument. Justice Harry Blackmun wrote:
“[ Footnote 54 ] When Texas urges that a fetus is entitled to Fourteenth Amendment protection as a person, it faces a dilemma. Neither in Texas nor in any other State are all abortions prohibited. Despite broad proscription, an exception always exists… But if the fetus is a person who is not to be deprived of life without due process of law, and if the mother's condition is the sole determinant, does not the Texas exception appear to be out of line with the Amendment's command? ...”

The gates of hell shall NOT prevail against the church that Messiah is building (Matthew 16:18). However, HE desires to be glorified in and through and by His true church, made up of born-again, Bible-believers (not the Roman Catholic, Mormon, Jehovah Witness, or other institutions of false religion). God works a great deal through "means" - and that includes born-again, Bible-believing, Christians, empowered by the Holy Spirit, rightly representing our Lord and Saviour in spirit and in truth, and advancing Biblical answers, as we do !

Christian principled ‘pro-personhood’ pro-lifers testify against National Right to Life SC chapter’s incremental, abortion/murder-regulation bill:
“Wait 24 hours and then the baby can be killed” – before SC House Constitutional Laws Subcommittee, January 28, 2009

Bill requiring women to wait day before an abortion heads to House
www.greenvilleonline.com/article/20090128/NEWS01/90128010/1004/NEWS01
The Associated Press • January 28, 2009
COLUMBIA -- Women seeking an abortion in South Carolina would have to wait at least 24 hours after their ultrasound under a bill given initial approval Wednesday by a House subcommittee.
The measure would increase the waiting time from an hour to a day.
Proponents said it would bring South Carolina in line with other states that have waiting periods and give women time to reflect on the decision. Critics said requiring two trips creates a burden, especially for poor, rural women.
The proposal follows nearly two years of debate on whether to require women to view an ultrasound image before getting an abortion. Under a compromise passed last year, women must be asked whether they want to look at the screen during the procedure or see a printed image -- and sign a form verifying they were given the option.
The compromise kept in the law a 60-minute wait already required after women are handed brochures about fetal development and abortion alternatives.
“But one hour is not enough time to think about it,” said Rep. Greg Delleney, the sponsor of last year’s law and the current proposal. “I’m trying to give the chance for a child waiting to be born to have a birthday.”
He said he didn’t make it an issue last year because he didn’t want to further bog down the law’s passage.
At least 25 other states require waiting times for abortions, and all but two set them at 24 hours -- Indiana, the other, sets an 18-hour minimum, said Oran Smith, president of the Palmetto Family Council.
Several women who had abortions testified they would have changed their mind if they’d had more time to think it through.
“I went blindly, fearfully into a clinic,” said Carla Harvey, a nurse and a volunteer at Lowcountry Crisis Pregnancy Center in Charleston. “They’re in a waiting room. They’re numb. They’re afraid. ... Time really does make a difference.”
Advocates also noted South Carolina requires a daylong wait for a marriage license, and patients have to undergo pre-counseling or classes for many other surgeries, such as for obese patients and hip replacements.
“A waiting period before a final decision regarding abortion is far more critical than any other waiting period,” said Holly Gatling, executive director of South Carolina Citizens for Life. “Before making such a grave and permanent decision, women deserve a 24-hour waiting period that safeguards their dignity, their health and their right to choose life.”
The South Carolina Coalition for Healthy Families opposed the measure, calling it extreme and said it could require taking two days off of work and finding transportation. The state needs to focus instead on reducing unintended pregnancies by funding preventive health care, contraception and comprehensive education beyond abstinence only, said coalition lobbyist Brandi Parrish.
Women must make appointments to get an abortion and already spend time agonizing over the decision, she said.
[continued…]
Opponents at the hearing included two anti-abortion activists, who want abortion outlawed.
“It’s not God’s will to wait 24 hours and then kill the baby,” said Steve Lefemine, director of Columbia Christians for Life, who can frequently be seen at the Statehouse carrying posters of aborted fetuses.
The measure stipulates the 24-hour waiting period applies only if an ultrasound is performed. But abortion rights advocates have testified that clinics already perform ultrasounds in nearly all cases to verify how far along the pregnancy is, since state law requires abortion doctors to tell women the likely age of their fetus.
The bill now goes to the full House Judiciary Committee.

Catholic Bishops in Georgia, Montana, and Colorado opposed state personhood amendments for the pre-born
Judie Brown is a principled "pro-personhood" pro-lifer. Her national organization, American Life League, has provided information, materials, education, and advocacy for the personhood of the pre-born for many years. Judie Brown is also Roman Catholic. Her accurate article below, reporting the non-support and opposition of the Catholic Bishops in three states: Georgia, Montana, and Colorado, can be verified and readily independently documented by a variety of on-line resources.
"Judie Brown is president and co-founder of American Life League, the nation's largest grassroots pro-life educational organization."
I admire Judie Brown's principled pro-life position and her courage to speak the truth. I also pray she will be delivered from the false teaching of the Roman Catholic religion. If she is not already saved, I pray that she will be born-again, saved by grace alone, through faith alone, in the Saviour alone.
However I will also add that the non-support and opposition of the hierarchy of the Roman Catholic Church, as manifested by the non-support and opposition of the seven bishops from three states (GA, MT, CO) mentioned in Judie Brown's informative article below, is paralleled, by the non-support and opposition of the National Right to Life Committee.
Here in South Carolina, the executive director of the SC chapter of National Right to Life actually approached the SC House legislator who was the primary sponsor of the "Right to Life Act of SC" Personhood Bill, and tried to dissuade him from further advocacy of the bill. SC Citizens for Life tried to kill the SC Personhood Bill.
Similar experiences with non-support by National Right to Life has been experienced in other states as well.
So principled "pro-personhood" pro-lifers have two additional enemies they may not have realized were actually working against their efforts to establish personhood for the pre-born with state-level personhood bills and constitutional amendments: the Roman Catholic Church hierarchy (bishops and above, all the way to the Vatican), and National Right to Life.
To paraphrase what Oswald Chambers says in so many words in a couple of his daily devotionals in "My Utmost For His Highest" - "Good" is the ENEMY of God's "Best." The incrementalist, abortion-murder regulation strategy of National Right to Life, is the ENEMY of those principled "pro-personhood" pro-lifers who are working to not just "regulate" abortion, but to END it !
God's requirement for Murder is Justice, not Regulation !

With signs all around us that GOD IS JUDGING AMERICA, the South Carolina Legislature was welcomed back to the SC State House with yet another prophetic witness regarding the murder of preborn children [approx. 7,000/year] in this so-called "Bible-belt" (?) state.

World Net Daily, Joseph Farah, January 12, 2009
After TEN YEARS (since 1998), the South Carolina Legislature and SC Governor have thus far refused to pass the "Right to Life Act of SC" "Personhood" Bill to END abortion in South Carolina, instead of perpetually regulating it according to the failed, unbiblical strategy of the incremental abortion (child-murder) regulators (such as National Right to Life and most of their state chapters, including the ecumenical SC chapter). God's requirement for Murder is Justice, not Regulation !
All these years and years of murder-regulation bills have proven to be a distraction from what even the language of the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision itself says is necessary to end abortion: PERSONHOOD for the preborn child, with NO EXCEPTIONS.
See http://www.christianlifeandliberty.net/ , Homepage and "RTL Act of SC" page, and "RighttoLifeActofSC.net" for history of "Personhood" Bill in South Carolina, and several other states.

It's well past time to pass "Personhood" legislation. Abortion could have been ended 36 years ago, in 1973, with state and federal "Personhood" bills. The opportunity is still there, and thankfully, the "Personhood" vision is growing. On November 4, 2008, for the first time, there was a statewide vote on a Colorado state-level "Personhood" constitutional amendment. Although it failed, it did much to spread the "Personhood" vision across the nation.
The Bible says, "Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he."
Proverb 29:18, KJB
It's time we who are pro-life and anti-abortion kept our eyes on "Keeping God's Law" - specifically, His Law in the Sixth Commandment: "Thou shalt not kill [murder]." Period. No Exceptions. No Murder Regulation (wait an hour, look at some literature, get a teen's parent to sign, etc. and then kill then baby).
It is time for born-again Christians to repent of following the lead of the Vatican's front organization, National Right to Life, which was originally founded by the National Conference of Catholic Bishops, with its unbiblical positions and strategies (e.g., NRL endorsed pro-abort John McCain in 2008), and start following the Word of God in Exodus 20:13, and the Author of His Word, Who Alone is today, King of kings ! (1 Timothy 6:15). God is (and always has been) King of all the earth ! (Psalm 47:7).

Forget the US Supreme Court. The Congress is able to pass legislation to strip jurisdiction on this matter according to Article III., Section 2. of the US Constitution. And if even the 7-2 pro-abortion Supreme Court of 1973 could write into the text of the Roe decision that establishing "Personhood" "collapses" the legal argument for abortion, then that is what every principled pro-lifer in America should be working toward. Forget the foolish, time-energy-and-resources wasting abortion (murder) regulation strategy of National Right to Life. Forget National Right to Life. And find a principled Christian pro-life legislator in your State Legislature to introduce one of the various forms of state-level "Personhood" Legislation, and start aiming at the right target - to END ABORTION !

It is time to introduce "Personhood" legislation in every State House in the nation that will. And for those States that will not, they are violative of the principles of the Declaration of Independence (as all 50 are right now !), including the Creator-endowed unalienable right to life. Such States, in my opinion, should either withdraw from, or be thrown out of, the Union if they will not adhere to its founding, covenantal principles. If child-murder is permitted in America, anyplace in America, then the Declaration of Independence of 1776 has lost its meaning.

THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE - IN CONGRESS, JULY 4, 1776
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

The people of Iraq have far greater freedom to enshrine their national religion of Islam in the legal structure of their country than do Americans to honor Christianity and Biblical Law in the United States. Christianity was by far the predominant faith of the founding generations of America, from Jamestown in 1607 to the Declaration of Independence in 1776, and beyond, as the historical record clearly shows:
No King but King Jesus! (Yeshua Messiah)

The Sixth President of the United States, John Quincy Adams (son of John Adams, the Second US President, and a signer of the Declaration of Independence), said: "The highest glory of the American Revolution was this; it connected in one indissoluble bond the principles of civil government with the principles of Christianity." and "From the day of the Declaration... they (the American people) were bound by the laws of God, which they all, and by the laws of The Gospel, which they nearly all, acknowledge as the rules of their conduct."
Tragically, today in 2008, American law has become exceedingly anti-Christian. Witness the government-protected murder of One Million pre-birth human beings each year (http://www.ldi.org/ ).
The Constitution of the United States should be amended as first proposed by the National Reform Association in 1864, with a Christian Amendment:
Confession of the Saviour (Messiah) as the Ruler of Nations, including America, by amending the Preamble to the United States Constitution
In 1864, the National Reform Association advocated amending the Preamble of the Constitution of the United States to read, in substance:
"We, the people of the United States, humbly acknowledging Almighty God as the source of all authority and power in civil government, the Lord Jesus Christ as the Ruler among the nations, his revealed will as the supreme law of the land, in order to constitute a Christian government, and in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquillity, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the inalienable rights and the blessings of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness to ourselves, our posterity, and all the people, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America." http://candst.tripod.com/nra.htm

A call to Christian pro-life men, women, young adults, and children to a time of repentance, prayer, praise, worship, and declaration of God’s Word as we:
1) Repent and ask the Lord’s forgiveness for America’s corporate bloodguilt. Bloodguilt
is upon all of us, and upon our city, upon our state, upon our nation, and
upon all its inhabitants (Jeremiah 26:15), especially the Church
(Deuteronomy 21:1-9, 2 Chronicles 7:14), which has failed to love her unborn
neighbors as herself, for the well over 300,000 unborn children who have been
murdered by surgical abortion alone on South Carolina soil since the wicked and
unconstitutional Roe v. Wade supreme Court decision in 1973, and probably
several times more that number aborted chemically by birth control that is
abortifacient (including birth control pills). Their shed innocent blood pollutes the
very ground of our city and state and nation (Numbers 35:33), and cries out to
God for divine vengeance and recompensation (Genesis 4:10).
2) Beseech the Lord, to end completely the sin of shedding innocent blood in the city of Columbia
in South Carolina, and in America, not by our might and power, but by His Spirit,
as HE is already doing, having already closed at least four abortion centers in the
Columbia area, six other abortion centers in our state, and over 1,000 abortion
centers in America (http://www.ldi.org/ ). (Psalm 24:7-10; Matthew 16:18; Genesis 22:17)

“If My people, which are called by My Name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”
2 Chronicles 7:14
“So ye shall not pollute the land wherein ye are: for blood it defileth the land: and the land cannot be
cleansed of the blood that is shed therein, but by the blood of him that shed it.”
Numbers 35:33
"Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils,
And shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and daughters,… and the land was polluted with blood.
Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions.
Therefore was the wrath of the LORD kindled against His people, insomuch that He abhorred His own inheritance.
And He gave them into the hand of the heathen; and they that hated them rules over them.
Their enemies also oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their hand.
Many times did He deliver them; but they provoked Him with their counsel, and were brought low for their iniquity.
Nevertheless He regarded their affliction, when He heard their cry:"
Psalm 106:37-44
“... I will build My church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” Matthew 16:18

If child-murder-by-abortion were to end today in America, there would still remain
the need to REPENT for all the innocent blood which has been already shed.
Bloodshed following bloodshed (e.g., gang, domestic, and school violence),
foreign invasion (e.g., 11 to 20 million illegal Mexican and other aliens through
our intentionally undefended southern border), and our nation being turned over
to tyranny, are all scripturally predictable consequences of our ongoing murder
of innocent children in the wombs of their mothers.
IN OTHER WORDS, THE SHEDDING OF INNOCENT BLOOD IS THE CAUSE OF
THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT INVASION, THE CAUSE OF THE THREAT OF ISLAMO-FASCISM,
AND THE CAUSE OF BEING TURNED OVER TO WICKED, CORRUPT RULERS IN OUR
OWN GOVERNMENT (INCLUDING NAFTA, CAFTA, GATT/WTO, the UN, NAU, NWO, etc.),
AS DIVINE JUDGEMENTS FROM GOD HIMSELF !!!
Read Hosea 4:2; Ezekiel 35:4-6, 2 Kings 24:1-4; and Psalm 106:37-44
But we have blind leaders being followed by a blind people in America, and it is neither
a Church nor Civil Government priority to bring child-murder to an end... when it could
be ended in a week, because Congress has the power to limit the appellate jurisdiction
of the US Supreme Court ! Just listen to the Legislative Priorities of both State and Federal
leaders, both legislative and executive, and you will see there is a normally a total absence
of even any mention of the murder of 3,000 plus pre-birth human beings PER DAY in America.
The level of blindness is astounding. And it's the same in the Church - which is actually more
responsible and culpable than civil government. The Church is both the problem and the answer to ending child-murder in America.
National Right to Life and the Republican Party are wrong. The composition of the
US Supreme Court is not what has to change to end abortion. If the Christians of America
would simply read Article III., Section 2. of their own national covenant, the US Constitution,
perhaps they would understand that Congress and the President have had the power to
end abortion in America in a week's time, for now almost 36 years !
PRINCIPLED PRO-LIFERS WHO WANT TO SEE ABORTION END, NOT JUST BE PERPETUALLY,
INCREMENTALLY REGULATED, SHOULD STOP LISTENING, STOP ATTENDING, AND STOP SUPPORTING NATIONAL RIGHT TO LIFE, IMMEDIATELY. ADVOCATES OF STATE-LEVEL "PERSONHOOD" LEGISLATION (TO VEST LEGAL PERSONHOOD AT FERTILIZATION WITH NO EXCEPTIONS AND THEREBY END ABORTION IN THAT STATE) HAVE BEEN UNSUPPORTED, OR ACTUALLY OPPOSED, BY NATIONAL RIGHT TO LIFE/STATE CHAPTER OPERATIVES AT LEAST IN SOUTH CAROLINA, IN MICHIGAN, AND IN COLORADO; and probably elsewhere as well.

FEDERAL PERSONHOOD AND ARTICLE III. SECTION 2 (US CONSTITUTION) LEGISLATION
TO END ABORTION IN AMERICA:
US House limits jurisdiction of Federal Courts regarding the Pledge of Allegiance
Employs Article III., Section 2. constitutional power of the US Congress to limit
the appellate jurisdiction of the US supreme Court:
This same Article III., Section 2. constitutional power of the US Congress to limit the
appellate jurisdiction of the US supreme Court can be further applied to protect the God-ordained
institution of marriage, to protect state-level laws banning acts of sodomy, to protect federal and
state laws banning abortion, and to protect the freedom of religious expression that is guaranteed
by the First Amendment of the US Constitution, vis-a-vis public displays of the Ten Commandments,
and public prayer in the Name of Jesus.

PRESIDENT BUSH and CONGRESS COULD END ABORTION IN AMERICA IN ONE WEEK:
President Bush and the US Congress have the power NOW to end abortion in America in one week:
Pass HR 552, the "Right to Life Act", amended with the addition of the Article III., Section 2. power
of the US Congress in the US Constitution to limit the appellate jurisdiction of the US supreme Court,
and the complete jurisdiction of the lower federal courts (US District Courts and US Circuit Courts of
Appeal, which were created by Congress by federal statute, and could even be eliminated by Congress
by federal statute, let alone have their jurisdictions limited).

PRESIDENT BUSH and CONGRESS
COULD END ABORTION IN AMERICA IN ONE WEEK
www.christianlifeandliberty.net/CONLAW08.DOC
The Article III., Section 2. legal strategy espoused in the articles above is embodied in HR 2597,
the Sanctity of Life Act of 2007, sponsored by US Congressman Ron Paul (R-Texas).
Congressman Paul's bill would vest "fetal" legal "personhood" at conception ("fertilization" would
be a better, more precise term), and invoke the Article III., Section 2. power of Congress to remove
appellate jurisdiction from the US Supreme Court, meaning they could not overturn it.
I believe that if HR 2597 were passed into law, that it would effectively, eventually, END ABORTION
in America, because of three reasons: 1) the vesting of legal "personhood" by Congress,
2) the principle of the supremacy of federal laws, and 3) the Article III., Section 2.
provision that would remove the bill from the US Supreme Court's appellate jurisdiction, and
thereby preventing them from even reviewing it (hearing a case on it), much less overturning it.

A call to Christian pro-life men, women, young adults, and children to a time of repentance, prayer, praise, worship, and declaration of God’s Word as we:
1) Repent and ask the Lord’s forgiveness for America’s corporate bloodguilt. Bloodguilt
is upon all of us, and upon our city, upon our state, upon our nation, and
upon all its inhabitants (Jeremiah 26:15), especially the Church
(Deuteronomy 21:1-9, 2 Chronicles 7:14), which has failed to love her unborn
neighbors as herself, for the well over 300,000 unborn children who have been
murdered by surgical abortion alone on South Carolina soil since the wicked and
unconstitutional Roe v. Wade supreme Court decision in 1973, and probably
several times more that number aborted chemically by birth control that is
abortifacient (including birth control pills). Their shed innocent blood pollutes the
very ground of our city and state and nation (Numbers 35:33), and cries out to
God for divine vengeance and recompensation (Genesis 4:10).
2) Beseech the Lord, to end completely the sin of shedding innocent blood in the city of Columbia
in South Carolina, and in America, not by our might and power, but by His Spirit,
as HE is already doing, having already closed at least four abortion centers in the
Columbia area, six other abortion centers in our state, and over 1,000 abortion
centers in America (http://www.ldi.org/ ). (Psalm 24:7-10; Matthew 16:18; Genesis 22:17)
Location: Columbia, South Carolina
SC State House, south steps
(facing Pendleton St., between Sumter and Assembly Streets)
“If My people, which are called by My Name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”
2 Chronicles 7:14
“So ye shall not pollute the land wherein ye are: for blood it defileth the land: and the land cannot be
cleansed of the blood that is shed therein, but by the blood of him that shed it.”
Numbers 35:33
"Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils,
And shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and daughters,… and the land was polluted with blood.
Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions.
Therefore was the wrath of the LORD kindled against His people, insomuch that He abhorred His own inheritance.
And He gave them into the hand of the heathen; and they that hated them rules over them.
Their enemies also oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their hand.
Many times did He deliver them; but they provoked Him with their counsel, and were brought low for their iniquity.
Nevertheless He regarded their affliction, when He heard their cry:"
Psalm 106:37-44
“... I will build My church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” Matthew 16:18

If child-murder-by-abortion were to end today in America, there would still remain
the need to REPENT for all the innocent blood which has been already shed.
Bloodshed following bloodshed (e.g., gang, domestic, and school violence),
foreign invasion (e.g., 11 to 20 million illegal Mexican and other aliens through
our intentionally undefended southern border), and our nation being turned over
to tyranny, are all scripturally predictable consequences of our ongoing murder
of innocent children in the wombs of their mothers.
IN OTHER WORDS, THE SHEDDING OF INNOCENT BLOOD IS THE CAUSE OF
THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT INVASION, THE CAUSE OF THE THREAT OF ISLAMO-FASCISM,
AND THE CAUSE OF BEING TURNED OVER TO WICKED, CORRUPT RULERS IN OUR
OWN GOVERNMENT (INCLUDING NAFTA, CAFTA, GATT/WTO, the UN, NAU, NWO, etc.),
AS DIVINE JUDGEMENTS FROM GOD HIMSELF !!!
Read Hosea 4:2; Ezekiel 35:4-6, 2 Kings 24:1-4; and Psalm 106:37-44
But we have blind leaders being followed by a blind people in America, and it is neither
a Church nor Civil Government priority to bring child-murder to an end... when it could
be ended in a week, because Congress has the power to limit the appellate jurisdiction
of the US Supreme Court ! Just listen to the Legislative Priorities of both State and Federal
leaders, both legislative and executive, and you will see there is a normally a total absence
of even any mention of the murder of 3,000 plus pre-birth human beings PER DAY in America.
The level of blindness is astounding. And it's the same in the Church - which is actually more
responsible and culpable than civil government. The Church is both the problem and the answer to ending child-murder in America.
National Right to Life and the Republican Party are wrong. The composition of the
US Supreme Court is not what has to change to end abortion. If the Christians of America

perhaps they would understand that Congress and the President have had the power to
end abortion in America in a week's time, for now almost 36 years !

ADVOCATES OF STATE-LEVEL "PERSONHOOD" LEGISLATION (TO VEST LEGAL PERSONHOOD AT FERTILIZATION WITH NO EXCEPTIONS AND THEREBY END ABORTION IN THAT STATE) HAVE BEEN UNSUPPORTED, OR ACTUALLY OPPOSED, BY NATIONAL RIGHT TO LIFE/STATE CHAPTER OPERATIVES AT LEAST IN SOUTH CAROLINA, IN MICHIGAN, AND IN COLORADO; and probably elsewhere as well.

Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions.
Therefore was the wrath of the LORD kindled against His people, insomuch that He abhorred His own inheritance.
And He gave them into the hand of the heathen; and they that hated them rules over them.
Their enemies also oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their hand.
Many times did He deliver them; but they provoked Him with their counsel, and were brought low for their iniquity.
Nevertheless He regarded their affliction, when He heard their cry:"
Psalm 106:37-44
“... I will build My church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.”

In Colorado, Voters Will Decide Whether Human Embryos Are People Under State's Constitution
http://news.yahoo.com/s/usnews/20081030/ts_usnews/incoloradovoterswilldecidewhetherhumanembryosarepeopleunderstatesconstitution;_ylt=AtpfJP18qwFnTzIc5FZHVv1h24cA
In the battleground state of Colorado on November 4, along with casting a vote for Barack Obama or John McCain, voters will be considering whether or not to make Colorado the first state to give constitutional rights to human embryos.
The proposed Amendment 48 would change Colorado's Constitution to define the term "person" as "any human being from the moment of fertilization." That means fertilized eggs and fetuses would have all the rights of individuals under Colorado law, down to the right to due process.
Supporters say it protects the value of life and clarifies "personhood" in light of scientific findings on how humans develop in the womb. They also argue that it won't automatically overturn access to contraception, abortion, or medical research involving embryos, since courts still will have to interpret laws on a case-by-case basis.
But opponents say the amendment could have wide-ranging consequences. The amendment could allow abortion, and even contraception, to be interpreted as murder, without exception for victims of rape or incest. In vitro fertilization could be banned, since the eggs used in the process would be protected; so could stem cell research. Meanwhile, more than 20,000 references to "persons" exist in state statutes, regulations, and city ordinances, meaning that the ban could have unintended effects, one reason the Colorado Bar Association has opposed it.
"It is a blatant attempt to interfere into personal, private, family health decisions," says Fofi Mendez, campaign manager for Vote NO on 48.
The views of Mendez and other opponents of the ban, including self-described "pro-life" Gov. Bill Ritter, seem to have struck a chord with Coloradans. Even though supporters originally gathered more than 130,000 signatures to get the measure on the ballot, support seems to have tumbled. A recent Rocky Mountain News/CBS4 News poll showed that more than two thirds of Colorado voters oppose the bill, compared with 27 percent in favor. That's despite another poll showing that 44 percent of voters in the state say life begins at conception.
Even if the measure fails, though, some say it points to a rising politicization of contraception. Mississippi, Georgia, Michigan, Oregon, and Montana have attempted to get similar measures passed, Mendez says.
Contraception also has become an issue in nine races in this election, according to Cristina Page of the advocacy site BirthControlWatch.org, including congressional campaigns in New Jersey, Ohio, New Hampshire, Washington, Virginia, and Colorado as well as a gubernatorial race in Washington.
"This is a trend we're going to see--birth control becoming a campaign issue--grow," says Page.

In the very text of the Roe v.

Wade. But tragically, Texas had an “exception” which undermined their entire “personhood” argument. Justice Harry Blackmun wrote: “[ Footnote 54 ] When Texas urges that a fetus is entitled to Fourteenth Amendment protection as a person, it faces a dilemma. Neither in Texas nor in any other State are all abortions prohibited. Despite broad proscription, an exception always exists… But if the fetus is a person who is not to be deprived of life without due process of law, and if the mother's condition is the sole determinant, does not the Texas exception appear to be out of line with the Amendment's command? ...”

The Right to Life Act of SC, in statutorily vesting legal “personhood” at fertilization for ALL human beings, satisifies the Roe formula published 35 years ago. The issue of legal “Personhood” for ALL human beings, without exception, is a key to unlocking the 35 year old Roe v. Wade abortion enigma.

Good morning, I am Steve Lefemine, director of Columbia Christians for Life.

HISTORY of "RIGHT TO LIFE ACT OF SOUTH CAROLINA" Personhood bill (1998-2008):
The Right to Life Act of SC "Personhood" Bill was first introduced in the SC House in Feb 1998 ( www.scstatehouse.net/sess112_1997-1998/bills/4558.htm ), and was also first introduced in the SC Senate in Feb 1998 ( www.scstatehouse.net/sess112_1997-1998/bills/1060.htm ).
The first public hearing was in 2001, when it failed at the House Subcommittee level. The next hearing was in 2004, when it passed the House Subcommittee, but then failed at the full House Judiciary Committee.
Legal Opinion (2005) of South Carolina Attorney General on the Right to Life Act of SC
"Accordingly, it is our opinion that the Right to Life Act is constitutional."
www.christianlifeandliberty.net/Westlaw_Document_15_03_35_5392471.doc
In April 2005, the bill (H.3213) passed the full SC House on Second Reading ( 95Y-18N ) for the first time on April 13, 2005 ( www.scstatehouse.net/sess116_2005-2006/hj05/20050413.htm ), albeit with a fatal flaw amendment to the bill, that established an "exception" to personhood, by allowing the use of an abortifacient (abortion-causing) pill in cases of rape. The bill passed on Third Reading ( 91Y-10N ) on April 14, 2005( www.scstatehouse.net/sess116_2005-2006/hj05/20050414.htm ). Any "exceptions" to legal "personhood" fatally undermine the legal concept of "personhood" as contained in the SC Constitution, and in the US Constitution, in the 5th and 14th Amendments. The bill (H.3213/S.111) was given two hearings in a Senate Judiciary Subcommittee in May 2005 (for the first time on the SC Senate side), but no action was taken. No hearings or further action took place in the 2006 Session. The bill died in this Senate Judiciary Subcommittee after the two public hearings with no vote.
2005/2006 Session

The SC House (H.3284) and SC Senate (S.313) bills were re-filed in 2007, but no hearings took place in either the SC House or SC Senate in 2007.
During the entire 2007-2008 SC Legislative regular session (Jan-Jun 2007 and Jan-Jun 2008), there was only one public hearing in the House Constitutional Laws Subcommittee on the RTL Act of SC, on February 14, 2008, and no vote was even taken.

South Carolina Attorney General Henry McMaster appeared before the Constitutional Laws Subcommittee, February 14, 2008, and reasserted that the Right to Life Act of South Carolina is constitutional, and that if applied to abortion, the outcome would be dependent upon the ruling of the US Supreme Court.

AMERICA - A NATION UNDER DIVINE JUDGMENT.
Psalm 33:12; Proverb 14:34; Psalm 9:17; 2 Kings 24:1-4; Jeremiah 19:3-5; Psalm 106:37-42
Foreign invasion (10-20 Million Illegal Aliens) and War (Iraq) are divine consequences upon a nation, any nation, for the shedding of innocent blood (e.g., 2 Kings 24:1-4)...
George Mason, Virginia delegate to the Constitutional Convention, 1787:
"Every master of slaves is born a petty tyrant. They bring the judgment of heaven upon a country. As nations cannot be rewarded or punished in the next world, they must be in this. By an inevitable chain of causes and effects, Providence punishes nation sins, by national calamites."
America lost over 600,000 American lives in the War Between Americans (1861-1865) as a result of God's divine judgment UPON BOTH NORTH AND SOUTH for the national sin of America's institutionalized chattel slavery system.
Will America have to lose 600,000 (or proportionally more) lives to war or terrorist attack before our eyes are opened to seeing the connection between national sin and national calamity ???
Just as God is already bringing incrementally greater divine judgment (e.g., 9-11, War in Iraq, ongoing Foreign Invasion by 12-20 Million Illegal Aliens, USA Financial Crisis, etc., etc., etc.) upon America for our federal, state, and local government-protected, institutionalized system of child-murder-by-abortion in our approx. 750 abortion centers, and hospitals, and doctors offices, today... www.lifedynamics.com/DeathCamps/DeathCamps.cfm
Abortion is a national sin. 9-11 was a national calamity.
3,000 innocent people were killed on 9-11-001; 3,000 innocents are killed DAILY in America's 700+ abortion death camps - just a "coincidence" ? Or is God perhaps trying to get our attention so we will "Connect The Dots" !!?
What about the War of Terror being waged by abortion domestic terrorists against children in the womb in America !!?
God's 9-11 Message to America - Repent !
Flip Benham, OSA national director, September 10, 2002 press release (i.e., six years ago !)
http://lefemineforlife.blogspot.com/2007/09/columbia-christians-for-life-press.html
9 - 11 WILL WE CONNECT THE DOTS?
Flip Benham, OSA national director, September 4, 2002 article...
www.operationsaveamerica.org/articles/articles/wtc-anniversary.htm (i.e., six years ago !)
http://lefemineforlife.blogspot.com/2007/09/9-11-will-we-connect-dots.html
9 - 11 – WILL WE CONNECT THE DOTS?
www.operationsaveamerica.org/articles/articles/wtc-anniversary.htm
“He that being often reproved hardeneth his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy."
Proverb 29:1, KJB
More and greater divine judgment is coming upon America for the national sin of child-murder-by-abortion (3,000 slaughtered unborn children PER DAY by surgical abortion alone) unless America repents of the shedding of innocent blood (STARTING with us Christians, for sins of committing abortions (including chemical abortions from birth control pills), and for sins of omitting to love our unborn neighbors enough to labor diligently to STOP abortions.) If you think that 9-11 is the most severe attack upon America that God will allow/cause, then you do not know history, the Bible, or God Himself, as He is truly revealed in the Word of God (all 66 books of the Bible !).
America will not survive as we presently know it . America will be destroyed, if we do not repent, of the national sin of child-murder-by-abortion, beginning with the Church. When the Christian church truly repents in America, one of the signs of that repentance will be an increased presence of born-again Christians, on-site, outside America's 700+ abortion death camps, crying out to God to stop the slaughter !
"If My people [Christians], which are called by My Name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek My Face, and turn from their wicked ways [sins of commission and omission]; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land [America, or any nation]."

Christians, demonstrate your repentance to God by not voting for Pro-Abort John McCain or Pro-Abort Barack Obama on November 4, 2008. There is a "pro-personhood" pro-life Christian constitutionalist for whom you can vote: Florida Baptist pastor and presidential candidate for the Constitution Party, Dr. Chuck Baldwin. http://baldwin08.com/ (assuming Skull and Bones Illuminati NWO puppet President George W.

Statement by Steve Lefemine, dir. Columbia Christians for Life:
( Posted on "RTL Act of SC" page at: www.ChristianLifeandLiberty.net )
Good morning, I am Steve Lefemine, director of Columbia Christians for Life. In 1998, 10 years ago, the Right to Life Act of SC was first filed in the SC Legislature, which if passed, would end abortion in our state. However, in 2008, after 10 years, the Republican SC Legislature continues to fail to ESTABLISH JUSTICE to Protect the Lives of Over 7,000 Pre-Birth Children Murdered Each Year in SC by Surgical Abortion.

HISTORY of "RIGHT TO LIFE ACT OF SOUTH CAROLINA" Personhood bill (1998-2008):
The Right to Life Act of SC "Personhood" Bill was first introduced in the SC House in Feb 1998 ( www.scstatehouse.net/sess112_1997-1998/bills/4558.htm ), and was also first introduced in the SC Senate in Feb 1998 ( www.scstatehouse.net/sess112_1997-1998/bills/1060.htm ).
The first public hearing was in 2001, when it failed at the House Subcommittee level. The next hearing was in 2004, when it passed the House Subcommittee, but then failed at the full House Judiciary Committee.
Legal Opinion (2005) of South Carolina Attorney General on the Right to Life Act of SC
"Accordingly, it is our opinion that the Right to Life Act is constitutional."
www.christianlifeandliberty.net/Westlaw_Document_15_03_35_5392471.doc
In April 2005, the bill (H.3213) passed the full SC House on Second Reading ( 95Y-18N ) for the first time on April 13, 2005 ( www.scstatehouse.net/sess116_2005-2006/hj05/20050413.htm ), albeit with a fatal flaw amendment to the bill, that established an "exception" to personhood, by allowing the use of an abortifacient (abortion-causing) pill in cases of rape. The bill passed on Third Reading ( 91Y-10N ) on April 14, 2005( www.scstatehouse.net/sess116_2005-2006/hj05/20050414.htm ). Any "exceptions" to legal "personhood" fatally undermine the legal concept of "personhood" as contained in the SC Constitution, and in the US Constitution, in the 5th and 14th Amendments. The bill (H.3213/S.111) was given two hearings in a Senate Judiciary Subcommittee in May 2005 (for the first time on the SC Senate side), but no action was taken. No hearings or further action took place in the 2006 Session. The bill died in this Senate Judiciary Subcommittee after the two public hearings with no vote.

The SC House (H.3284) and SC Senate (S.313) bills were re-filed in 2007, but no hearings took place in either the SC House or SC Senate in 2007.
During the entire 2007-2008 SC Legislative regular session (Jan-Jun 2007 and Jan-Jun 2008), there was only one public hearing in the House Constitutional Laws Subcommittee on the RTL Act of SC, on February 14, 2008, and no vote was even taken.

South Carolina Attorney General Henry McMaster appeared before the Constitutional Laws Subcommittee, February 14, 2008, and reasserted that the Right to Life Act of South Carolina is constitutional, and that if applied to abortion, the outcome would be dependent upon the ruling of the US Supreme Court.

From the very text of the Roe v. Wade decision - if "personhood" for the fetus is established (with no "exceptions") then the legal argument for abortion "collapses":
Right to Life Act of SC - news conference and "Jesus Christ is Lord of the Gates" pro-life rally - Jan. 17, 2006
www.christianlifeandliberty.net/H3213-S111-1032.doc
In the very text of the Roe v. Wade US supreme Court decision it states, “[Texas] argue[s] that the fetus is a “person” within the language and meaning of the Fourteenth Amendment… If this suggestion of personhood is established, the [pro-abortion] case, of course, collapses, for the fetus’ right to life would then be guaranteed specifically by the [14th] Amendment.” In other words, there never would have been legalized abortion under Roe v. Wade. But tragically, Texas had an “exception” which undermined their entire “personhood” argument. Justice Harry Blackmun wrote: “[Footnote 54 ] When Texas urges that a fetus is entitled to Fourteenth Amendment protection as a person, it faces a dilemma. Neither in Texas nor in any other State are all abortions prohibited. Despite broad proscription, an exception always exists… But if the fetus is a person who is not to be deprived of life without due process of law, and if the mother's condition is the sole determinant, does not the Texas exception appear to be out of line with the Amendment's command? ...”
Roe v. Wade
http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/getcase.pl?court=us&vol=410&invol=113
The Right to Life Act of SC, in statutorily vesting legal “personhood” at fertilization for ALL human beings, satisifies the Roe formula published 35 years ago. The issue of legal “Personhood” for ALL human beings, without exception, is a key to unlocking the 35 year old Roe v. Wade abortion enigma.

AMERICA - A NATION UNDER DIVINE JUDGMENT.
Psalm 33:12; Proverb 14:34; Psalm 9:17; 2 Kings 24:1-4; Jeremiah 19:3-5; Psalm 106:37-42
Foreign invasion (10-20 Million Illegal Aliens) and War (Iraq) are divine consequences upon a nation, any nation, for the shedding of innocent blood (e.g., 2 Kings 24:1-4)...
George Mason, Virginia delegate to the Constitutional Convention, 1787:
"Every master of slaves is born a petty tyrant. They bring the judgment of heaven upon a country. As nations cannot be rewarded or punished in the next world, they must be in this. By an inevitable chain of causes and effects, Providence punishes nation sins, by national calamites."
America lost over 600,000 American lives in the War Between Americans (1861-1865) as a result of God's divine judgment UPON BOTH NORTH AND SOUTH for the national sin of America's institutionalized chattel slavery system.
Will America have to lose 600,000 (or proportionally more) lives to war or terrorist attack before our eyes are opened to seeing the connection between national sin and national calamity ???
Just as God is already bringing incrementally greater divine judgment (e.g., 9-11, War in Iraq, ongoing Foreign Invasion by 12-20 Million Illegal Aliens, USA Financial Crisis, etc., etc., etc.) upon America for our federal, state, and local government-protected, institutionalized system of child-murder-by-abortion in our approx. 750 abortion centers, and hospitals, and doctors offices, today... www.lifedynamics.com/DeathCamps/DeathCamps.cfm
Abortion is a national sin. 9-11 was a national calamity.
3,000 innocent people were killed on 9-11-001; 3,000 innocents are killed DAILY in America's 700+ abortion death camps - just a "coincidence" ? Or is God perhaps trying to get our attention so we will "Connect The Dots" !!?
What about the War of Terror being waged by abortion domestic terrorists against children in the womb in America !!?
God's 9-11 Message to America - Repent !

9 - 11 – WILL WE CONNECT THE DOTS?
www.operationsaveamerica.org/articles/articles/wtc-anniversary.htm
“He that being often reproved hardeneth his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy."
Proverb 29:1, KJB
More and greater divine judgment is coming upon America for the national sin of child-murder-by-abortion (3,000 slaughtered unborn children PER DAY by surgical abortion alone) unless America repents of the shedding of innocent blood (STARTING with us Christians, for sins of committing abortions (including chemical abortions from birth control pills), and for sins of omitting to love our unborn neighbors enough to labor diligently to STOP abortions.) If you think that 9-11 is the most severe attack upon America that God will allow/cause, then you do not know history, the Bible, or God Himself, as He is truly revealed in the Word of God (all 66 books of the Bible !).
America will not survive as we presently know it . America will be destroyed, if we do not repent, of the national sin of child-murder-by-abortion, beginning with the Church. When the Christian church truly repents in America, one of the signs of that repentance will be an increased presence of born-again Christians, on-site, outside America's 700+ abortion death camps, crying out to God to stop the slaughter !
"If My people [Christians], which are called by My Name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek My Face, and turn from their wicked ways [sins of commission and omission]; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land [America, or any nation]."
