#TheRightToVote

Why did it take so long for society to accept the fact that women were people?  From the time that the government of the USA was formed in 1788 until 1870 only white men who owned property could vote. In 1870 all men were given the right to vote, but women were not considered to be 100% human beings and it wasn't until 1920 and the passing of the 19th Amendment that women were finally given the right to vote. That is not even 100 years ago. The very wise leaders of our government came to the conclusion that women were 100% human beings at least 6,000 years after the first man and woman were created.

So, I guess there is hope for people to finally catch up. Back in the 8th century B.C. Isaiah declared the earth to be round, but very few people took that statement seriously, because for hundreds of years after that statement was made people still considered the earth to be flat and Columbus was taking a death defying chance heading west. It was proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that the earth was, in fact, round when he didn't fall off in 1492.

Will the great minds of our society ever look to God's Word for understanding, especially about serious things, like life? Leviticus 7:11 states that "life is in the blood" and it is very simple thing. Without blood there is no life and with blood there is and the heart pumps the blood through-out the whole body be it big or small or young or old or even six weeks after conception. Around six weeks a baby's heart starts pumping the blood that has already been manufactured some time before that, so if life is in the blood, life was there earlier. The proof that life exists is given by the beating of that tiny heart.

Thank God for the Governor of Iowa and the state legislatures of Iowa finally writing and signing a bill to prevent abortion after the beating of a heart. Leviticus was written in the 8th century B.C. and from all appearances, nobody of influence took it seriously until 2018.

Tuesday, November 6th is our day to Vote. Please, VOTE.
