Vote YES on Amendment 26

In a sermon at Pinelake, our pastor gave biblical references for how we, as Christians, should vote on the upcoming ballot. If you are unsure of how you should vote, look at the following passages of scripture for direction.
Psalm 139:13-16
For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full and well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.

Jeremiah 1:4-5
The word of the Lord came to me, saying, "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations"

Exodus 21:22-25
If men who are fighting hit a pregnant woman and she gives birth prematurely but there is no serious injury, the offender must be fined whatever the woman's husband demands and the court allows. But if there is serious injury, you are to take life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, burn for burn, wound for wound, bruise for bruise

Psalm 127:3
Sons are a heritage from the Lord, children are a reward from him.

Matthew 18:10
See that you do not look down on one of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father in heaven.


Amendment 26 will not ban birth control, but it will ban the "morning after pill"
Amendment 26 will not ban invitro fertilization, but it will ban destroying unused embryos.
Amendment 26 will not ban a doctor from saving the life of a mother with a problem pregnancy. The doctor will have to try and save BOTH, but if the baby becomes unviable, the doctor will have to save the mother.


If passed, we will be the first state in the NATION to enact a personhood amendment to protect unborn babies by banning abortion! Mississippi has the chance to LEAD in something!

Jacob, my little brother.  Think we look alike? 
He hasn't quite figured out the "natural" smile yet
