00:00: Listen, listen, listen, because every second counts. Listen, because every second counts.
00:12: Why do we do bills of equal protection? We do bills of equal protection as Christians because we want to be consistent.
00:20: Consistent with God's Word, consistent with human reason and logic.
00:25: Equal protection means that all human beings from the moment of conception, from the moment of conception are protected and given the same standards of justice.
00:34: Equal protection matters to God. In Proverbs 20, 23, God says that unequal weights and measures are an abomination in His sight.
00:42: Did you hear that? Unequal weights and measures are an abomination to God. God tells us throughout
00:48: His Word that He expects us to establish justice, to protect the fatherless, to make sure that all image bearers of God are protected and given justice.
00:58: That really is the duty of the Christian church, to love our neighbors as we love ourselves, to treat everybody the same.
01:05: This is seen in history always when we think about the issue of slavery. Why was the
01:11: Jim Crow era and the issue of slavery such an abomination? It's an abomination because we had image bearers of God, human beings who were treated with such depravity, with such evil, with such injustice.
01:23: We recognize the evil of saying, yeah, I know he looks like a person, but it's not a person, it's a black man.
01:29: We all see the evil in that. Equal justice matters to God. We can't say, yeah, you can kill these humans, but not these humans.
01:38: Christians, God commands us to hate unequal weights and measures, and that is why we must have equal protection for all humans from conception.
