You will have an abortion, she said.<\/p>\n
You will have an abortion even though you wish to keep the baby. You will have an abortion, even though your mother has said she will care for the baby if you cannot. You will have an abortion, though your social worker has said the pregnancy should proceed. You will have an abortion, even though you are now 22 weeks pregnant.<\/p>\n
You will have an abortion because we will not countenance the child being adopted or fostered. You will have an abortion, the judge said. And that is the end of the matter.<\/p>\n
Except that, by the grace of God, it wasn’t. A court ruling<\/a> last Friday, which sickened Christians across the UK has now been overturned<\/a> by appeal judges. Hallelujah and Amen!<\/p>\n The original decision by Judge Nathalie Lieven in the Court of Protection was that a young woman with a learning disorder should be forced to have an abortion \u2013 against her will.<\/p>\n But in the Court of Appeal on Monday, Lord Justice McCombe, Lady Justice King and Lord Justice Jackson overturned the decision. Their reasons will be made public later. But even as countless Christians rejoice over the saving of a child’s life, many questions come to mind<\/p>\n Read it all<\/a> and follow all the links, especially to the First Things article by Obianuju Ekeocha.<\/p>\n “But let’s keep asking questions and campaigning. One young life has been saved. But, on current reckoning, another 200,000 this year will be lost. They have no voices but ours.” @Baker_David_A<\/a> https:\/\/t.co\/5N5HZFQ5J6<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Christian Today (@ChristianToday) June 25, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
