The IRD has provided thoughtful coverage and insight on the Presbyterian Church USA’s (PCUSA) General Assembly voting to redefine marriage. In a press release, IRD president Mark Tooley asks, “[w]ho respects a church that only echoes the secular world?”
Such a worthy question not only applies with regards to marriage as God intended, however, but to protecting the lives of the most innocent, defenseless and vulnerable among us: the unborn. The Presbyterian Church USA has not only gone against the will of God with marriage, but has offended Christ and his desire to help all in society. As Matt Walsh says in a post on LifeNews.com:
Further, Jesus makes it clear that whatever we do or fail to do for “the least of His brothers” we did or failed to do for Him (Matthew 25). When we abort a child, we are therefore aborting Christ.
I feel sick even typing that sentence, but there is no other way to interpret the matter.
But the most shocking Biblical attacks against abortion cannot be boiled down to one or two sentences. The central point — the Ultimate Moment — of Christianity is, among other things, a stunning rebuke against abortion. Indeed, if there is one issue today that most offends and desecrates the Christian Message, it is abortion.

The main reason I left the PCUSA was because of its support for abortion. A church should not be paying for abortions for its pastors and families. It’s wrong.
The PC (USA) is also a part of the Washington DC based ‘abortion rights’ lobby. That’s tithe & offering money being spent on that kind of lobby effort.
For Sale: PCUSA, cheap.
the fact that almost no one here even wants to discuss this says it all.
the popular topics always have something to do with money, accumulation of assets or power/control.
abortion has been described in many inner locutions received by saints and other approved Church seers, visionaries as the greatest of all sins, and the one major reason for removal of God’s protection from the US.
