A coalition of Texas churches is opposing the state's heartbeat law and promoting the continued legalization of abortion in what pro-life activist Albert Mohler calls a "tragic intersection of liberal religion and abortion politics." The 25 Texas churches were designated as "Reproductive Freedom Congregations" at a press conference in late August by Just Texas, a liberal organization that says the goal of the churches is to "eradicate stigma around reproductive freedom in Texas … one congregation at a time." Erika Forbes, the faith and outreach manager for Just Texas, said at the press conference on Aug. 25 that the designation was the "first of its kind in the entire country." Significantly, the designation came one week before a state law took effect that prohibits abortion if an unborn baby's heartbeat is detected. Reproductive Freedom Congregations must affirm three principles, according to Just Texas: - "We trust and respect women." - "We promise that people who attend our congregation will be free from stigma, shame, or judgment for their reproductive decisions, including abortion." - "We believe access to comprehensive and affordable reproductive health services is a moral and social good." Thus far, most churches in the coalition are Unitarian Universalist, although some are Presbyterian and one (University Baptist Church in Austin) is Baptist. www.christianheadlines.com/contributors/michael-foust/25-texas-churches-fight-heartbeat-ban-label-abortion-a-moral-and-social-good.html

I wonder what 'type' of Baptist church that is-? I may google them later to see if I can find out. I am praying God will remove any who are actually biblically-grounded Christians from those churches and take them to solid Bible teaching & preaching congregations. I am also praying God will close down those congregations and stop those who are preaching and teaching such incorrect doctrine.

Prayers continue as the murder of the unborn intensifies.
“How long will you tarry Lord Jesus?”
