I figured someone would beat me to that comment. That is by far the worst among many errors in this evil person’s position.

I didn’t see a bible verse here so I looked at the transcript. The verse she is referring to with her
“Jesus directs us to advocate for a just society that allows people to live their lives to the fullest,”
She is referring to John 10:10.
“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.”

“Jesus directs us to advocate for a just society that allows people to live their lives to the fullest,” Baker said.

That is not a "verse". That is a outright lie.

Jesus never said any such thing.

Except that is not what the verse says.

Not even close.

There is nothing in there about "advocate for a just society" or "allowing people to live their life to the fullest".

He said that He came so they could have life fully.

Since abortion ends life then she is a child of the devil who is the father of lies.

She should pay more attention to what Jesus said about the little ones.

“Jesus directs us to advocate for a just society that allows people to live their lives to the fullest,” Baker said. “And this means supporting access to affordable birth control, because by permitting individuals to plan if, whether and when to become pregnant, birth control allows us to live our fullest lives.”

This evil wench needs to read the Bible again. And then repent!

I think the verse is appropriate for her even if she doesn’t know her Bible.
She wants to force others to pay for what she wants so she is a thief,killer, and destroyer as well as a child of the devil who is the father of lies.

Way ahead of you - by 20+ years.

I aspired to be a minister from age five. I have served the church in two so-called denominations.

I started to hear soto voce comments in the 90s:

“There is no [spiritual] discernment in the [institutionalized] church.”

“The true Church is underground.”

They were right. Those of us who sought to exercise Scriptural sanctification (chastity) and discernment (wisdom) in the face of widening and deepe carnality and heresy were ridiculed and ostracized.

The three evils most in play were abortion (euphemized as personal choice), homoeroticism (euphemized as loving gayness), and communism (euphemized as genuine charity). The elevation of women to the ranks of the ordained abetted all three of these corruptions.

If you call them on any of it, you are accused of being unloving, legalistic and judgemental, and - my favorite - of wanting a perfect church.

I admit I was worn out from being the one voice among 300 calling for a Biblical perspective on critical congregational dictates and actions.

Lies. Lies. Lies. Satan has infiltrated their church. Life to the fullest doesn’t happen when you don’t live as Christ lived, and that includes laying your life down for your friend, who just may happen to be your unborn child.

Lord God, open their eyes to the truth and their ears to hear your voice. Don’t let Satan have them! In Jesus’ name and for your glory alone. So be it.

There are no verses in the Bible supporting abortion. On the contrary the Bible condemns the shedding of innocent blood.

Proverbs 6:16-19

16 These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:
17 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,
19 A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

God hates what this pro-abort Methodist is doing.
