Are we really surprised by the comments made by those who embrace the culture of death when it comes to abortion? I can say that I am not shocked at all, in fact, sometimes I wonder if I will ever hear something new, something I have never heard from pro-abortionists before. Fall classes have begun and it is time to get back out on the campuses to share the gospel of Jesus Christ, I have been waiting all summer for this time to arrive. Evangelism on College Campuses is by far my favorite place to go out and witness to others their need of the Savior Jesus. Normally I don't spend much time at our local community college because many students who attend the community college also work and while there are some who are full time students many are there for their classes and then off to work or wherever and off the campus, so I usually go out to Cleveland State because many of the students there are full time students and have more time to stand around and talk between classes. However, I really wanted to get out today and get on the campuses of our local community college because I know I will be at Cleveland State later this week and I at least wanted to give it a go and spend some time at LCCC, our local community college. And I believe I have been underestimating the community college, while I didn't have as many encounters as I have at larger colleges, I have to say I did have a great day. I believe I was able to hand out about one hundred gospel tracts, give or take, but regardless of the amount I know many of the tracts went out and I even had some students come back and tell me they read the tracts. I also had a few students who were Christians come and tell me that they like my sign and appreciated me being out there, and that was truly encouraging. (picture of my sign below)  As you can see, the sign I use accomplishes a couple things for me when I am out holding this sign. First, it addresses the evil of abortion and calls it exactly what abortion is, murder. Also the sign points out the reality that forgiveness for murder can only be found in Jesus Christ. This gives me the opportunity to speak on abortion pointing out just how evil it is and hopefully will cause young men and women especially to really consider what abortion is and think twice before even considering this wickedness as an option. And even more vitally important is this allows me to share with these young men and women their need for Jesus Christ. As I mentioned when I started this article, I am not really shocked or surprised by the things I hear young people say to me when I am out evangelizing. If you don't get out to evangelize on college campuses and want to see the state of our young people in America, you should go at least once and listen to the things they say to you, it might be a huge eye opener for many. On this occasion, I young lady came by and took a gospel tract from me and then when she looked at my sign told me to "stay safe man", to which I replied "why wouldn't I be safe", and just as said that to her another girl walked by and said that "my mom should have aborted me". (video below) Now I wasn't shocked by this comment, this is not the first time I have heard someone say that to me or other mean and hateful things. But it does reveal the heart of many of these young individuals. When you support a culture of death you have no problem wishing other people around you were dead, simply because you don't like the truth that is being exposed.
That really is what it comes down to right, abortion is murder, and the word of God say that we shall not murder (Exodus 20:13), and that God hates hands that shed innocent blood (Proverbs 6:17b), and the wages of our sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord (Romans 6:23). So even for the murderer there is hope if they repent and turn to Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of their sin. As the scripture says whoever calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved (Romans 10:13). So call on His name today and be reconciled to God through Christ Jesus.
