That’s what Hillsong pastor Stephen Carl Lentz said about the new, radical New York abortion law. He stood strong in condemning the legalization of killing healthy babies up to the moment of birth.
Unlike other Christians, pastors and church leaders – who are turning their backs and being silent – Pastor Lentz spoke truth, even knowing he would be criticized.
I’ve been critical of Lentz in the past for running from standing firm on cultural issues during TV interviews.
But he stood strong this time.
He also called out Christians to do more than just be pro-life.
Question: what are you and your church doing in promoting adoption and in providing crisis pregnancy counseling?
Also watch this futile attempt by Tucker Carlson to have an intelligent conversation with a pro-choice advocate about the Governor of Virginia announcing support for infanticide of healthy babies after birth (about 4 minutes).
I happen to be a woman. As I watched this video, all I saw this poor woman do was give pre-programmed responses. Sad. She could not even think for herself. She was obviously brainwashed by all the garbage that had been shoveled down her throat and into her ears and mind over the years. Did no-one take the time to try to feed her some TRUTH along the way. She might not be so confused if they had.
Maybe the question to ask is if she’s ok with killing her baby after it is born alive? But I think she’ll still say the same rhetoric. And men should have a say because it is their child too.
All I can think of in response to abortion is “Lack of respect and responsibility”. Lack of responsibility in having sex when you shouldn’t or when you don’t want a child. Lack of respect for life, lack of responsibility to do the right thing and give the baby for adoption even if it means a painful journey of pregnancy and childbirth. I believe lack of respect for God, life and others, lack of responsibility, and lack of respect for God in our culture today are at the core of this issue.
IF it is acceptable to terminate a pregnancy AFTER full term – what is wrong with terminating that pregnancy up to and including the 18th birthday??? Seriously, do what you will — the CONSEQUENCES of your decisions will be dealt with later – “obedience is better than sacrifice” so find out what the Creator wants and submit or give your answer to Him at the Great White Throne Judgment.
Where are all the other pastors? There should be 100,000 or more pastors flooding social media and the nightly news with outrage about this, and telling their congregations to hold these politicians accountable !!!!

Thank GOD, I agree with you, Sir. You are very courage and honorable. Thank GOD.
Pastor Jentezen Franklin and Free Chapel have stood publicly and boldly against this law. He is on the President’s Evangelical Board.
