MEXICO CITY, May 20, 2014 (LifeSiteNews.com) – In what media are calling an “unprecedented decision,” the Congress in the Mexican state of Guerrero has canceled the debate to pass a bill to legalize abortion-on-demand up to 12 weeks.

The bill, which was proposed by Guerrero’s left-wing governor Angel Aguirre, caused outrage within the Mexican society, as LifeSiteNews reported, causing thousands of pro-lifers to take to the streets last week in several cities aronud Guerrero.

The Blood of Martyrs must be shed to help change society. Mexico had this in their persecutions in the 1920's and 1930's.

I believe this is the fruit of the Blood of the Martyrs. In the Roman Empire, when there was sufficient Flood of the Martyrs there was a heavenly intervention... This was the sign that appeared in the sky that told Constantine that by this sign you will conquer.

Similarly, in Jewish tradition, when the Jewish people were enslaved in Egypt God heard the cries of His people and sent Moses (along with the power) to free HIS people.

The crux of my post about Blood of the Martyrs is that we must stand firm in our faith and be willing to lay down our lives for what we believe...

ping - meant to ping you with the others - since you post about LifeSiteNews.

Note that sometimes LifeSiteNews will have some articles that are buried. This story was not highlighted as a feature story today, but I thought it was an excellent story to post.

We had thousands protesting Obamacare and it did nothing to stop it. And we were called racists and were accused of spitting on a congressman and spewing racial hatred.

If something is wrong, it should be opposed regardless.

The media currently twists things against Christians/Conservatives.

There is an evil persecution going on.

In the case of the Benham Brothers and HGTV, it gives true Christians a chance to stand up for their values.

Maybe that is disconnecting their cable service or satellite/dish service saying that it is not Christian.

With what is happening at the VA, maybe ObamaCare is starting to be really Obama Death Care.

There are some serious reasons why people should NOT give up the fight.

One is the story of Terri Schiavo

>Mexicans have more morals than Liberals

The Mexicans that sneaked into California and remained there became liberals. Immoral tax dollars help keep them there.
