Abolitionists have been accused by Catholics, Christians and others in the Pro-life Movement of being "divisive." We want Christians to understand that abolitionism is actually only exposing the division that is already present. We also want Christians to understand how important it is to rely on the Providence of God in all that we do, and that it's only by and through Him that abortion will be abolished. We are here to simply be faithful, loving and obedient to Him.
Just below is a link to a 1-hour training video of Abolitionist, Toby Harmon, who fully explains the divisive nature of truth and the Biblical precedent for dissenting against false ideology in the context of abolitionism. The passage of scripture he references from is Matthew 10:34-39:
"Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to set a man against his father and a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. And a person's enemies will be those of his own household. Whoever loves father or mother more than Me, is not worthy of Me, and whoever loves son or daughter more than Me, is not worthy of Me."Creating a Culture of Dessent
The video is from the November, 2013 All On Fire Abolitionist Conference in Portland, Oregon.
