A call to action for Christians to stand strong in pro-life values in a post-Dobbs world
‘We questioned our actions when a pandemic threatened millions. Let’s apply the same logic to pre-born babies,’ says Dr. Alex McFarland
GREENSBORO, N.C. — Two years ago today, the United States Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, ending the constitutional right to abortion. However, in the two years since being overturned, many states have implemented laws allowing women to continue to have abortions. Recent studies show the number abortions in the U.S. increased in 2023, with an estimated 1,037,000 innocent lives lost.
As an author, educator and advocate for God’s truth in the Bible, Founder and President of Alex McFarland Ministries, Dr. Alex McFarland urges Christians to stand strong in their pro-life values.
“Two years ago, the Supreme Court recognized that a ‘right to privacy’ was never a license to kill,” says McFarland. “Dobbs v. Jackson overturned Roe v. Wade, and abortion became a state vote. Numerous states have banned or restricted abortion since, with more pending.
“Whether pro-life or pro-abortion, any rational person would ask, ‘Shouldn’t we question anything that kills 63 million people?’ Abortion has killed more than the combined populations of the 45 largest U.S. cities. We just celebrated Memorial Day, remembering 1.1 million men and women killed in all the wars of America’s history. How many babies has abortion killed? 63 million.
“We questioned our actions when a pandemic threatened millions. Let’s apply the same logic to pre-born babies. If you are pro-life, stand. If you are undecided, consider the facts. If you are pro-choice, choose contraception or adoption.”
As the country draws near to the 2024 election, abortion remains the biggest deal-breaker issue for voters.
In an effort to guide Christians on how to bring God and His biblical values to the voting booth, Dr. Alex McFarland and Alex McFarland Ministries are proud to provide Alex McFarland Ministries’ first-ever voter guide, “Faith & Freedom: Voting With A Biblical Worldview.”
“Voting is not just a right, but a responsibility — an act of faith and stewardship.” Says McFarland. “By voting based on our biblical values, we can help shape our nation’s future and advance the cause of Christ.
“We must pray with fervor, especially for the direction of this country, and rediscover what desperate intercession really is. If we ever hope to see this nation return to its Christian roots, then we as believers must pray and fight for biblical ideals… including at the polls.”
Alex McFarland currently co-hosts Exploring the Word on the American Family Radio Network, airing daily on nearly 200 radio stations across the U.S. He is also the host of the “Alex McFarland Show,” which airs weekly on NRB TV and YouTube. The “Alex McFarland Show” podcast is available here. Alex McFarland is a panel member and back-up host on the “Truth and Liberty Show.” The show airs every Wednesday and Friday, from 6:00 – 7:00 p.m. ET.
