ABORTION IS MURDER! Every year there are at least 1.5 million babies murdered before they have a chance to be born.   That's right, BABIES!   Not fetuses, or parasites, BABIES!   The Almighty God Himself refers to the unborn as literal human beings in His own words: "...she was found with child [not fetus] of the Holy Ghost."   Matt. 1:18 "...the babe [not parasite] leaped in her womb;" Luke 1:41.   Refusing a helpless baby the right to be born is ob- viously murder and therefore against God's will according to His Word.   "Thou shalt not kill."   Exod. 20:13 THE CHOICE FOR LIFE! Friend, did you know that God's Holy Word speaks about others who are unborn in a different kind of way.   That's right, but these have a choice of whether they want to be born or not.   In the Gospel of St. John, we see Jesus ex- plaining this to a very moral and religious man named Nicodemus.   "Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God."   John 3:3. Nicodemus thought that Jesus was talking about a physical birth.   "Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?" John 3:4.   Jesus told Nicodemus that a man must have a second birth, a spiritual birth to enter into the Kingdom of God.   "...Except a man be born of water [from the mother's womb] and of the Spirit [from the Word of God--John 6:63; I Peter 1:23], he cannot enter into the kingdom of God."   John 3:5. Notice that the word "water" in this context is speaking of the physical birth and not the ceremony of baptism. Jesus reaffirms this meaning in verse six: "That which is born of the flesh is flesh [Physical Birth]; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit [Spiritual Birth]." -- "It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life."   (John 6:63) "Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever."   (I Peter 1:23)

WHY A SECOND BIRTH? According to the Bible, God said that Adam would die the very day that he ate of the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil.   "...for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die."   Gen. 2:17b.   Adam did not die a physical death that day.   It was a spiritual death that passed upon all mankind.   "Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:" Rom. 5:12.   Since you are a descendant from Adam, you have inherited that spiritual death and must be "born again" to have spiritual life. GOD LOVES THE UNBORN! Let's continue Jesus' conversation with Nicodemus in verse fourteen.   "And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believeth [not: get baptized, but BELIEVETH] in him should not perish, but have eter- nal life.   For God so loved the world [spiritually un- born], that he gave his only begotten Son [to die on the cross], that whosoever believeth in him [not about him, but IN HIM] should not perish, but have everlasting life [not probationary life, but EVERLASTING LIFE]." Listen, if you have never been born again; you are "spiritually" unborn; but God loves you and has made a way for you to become His spiritual child. Friend, according to God's Holy Word, you are a creature of God, but you are not considered a CHILD of God until you are born of the Spirit.   The only way that you can become a CHILD of God is by putting your complete faith in Jesus Christ to save your soul.   St. Paul makes this very clear when he wrote a letter to his spiritual brothers and sisters in Galatia.   "For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus."   Gal. 3:26.   Think of it!   The

very moment that you call on Jesus Christ with "complete faith" in Him to save your soul; that very moment; you are birthed into the Family of God to be HIS CHILD forever! "Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ." Gal. 4:7 WHAT IS YOUR CHOICE? ¨ I Choose to be born of the Spirit by completely         trusting Jesus Christ to save my soul forever.   "He that         believeth on the Son hath everlasting life..."         John 3:36a. ¨ I am content with being born once, and choose to         remain spiritually unborn.   "...he that believeth not         the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God         abideth on him."   John 3:36b "Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again."   John 3:7 Please send this tract to us to let us know that after reading it, you have decided to trust the Lord Jesus Christ as your Saviour.
