The Sanctity of Life
2022 State Constitutional Amendment
In recognition of the sanctity of life, we ask Kentuckians to vote and encourage other Kentuckians to vote YES this November to ensure that Kentucky taxpayer money does not fund abortions and that judges do not use our state Constitution to advance a pro-abortion agenda. As Ballotpedia says, some courts have done exactly that in other states.

The Pro-Life Teaching from the Bible
The Bible asks the question:
"Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you!" Isaiah 49:15
The Bible teaches that God created man in His image and commanded mankind to be fruitful and multiply (Genesis 1:26-28).
The sanctity of life is declared (Gen 9:6).
The conception of children is seen as a gift from God (Gen 21:1, 2; 25:21).
The shedding of innocent blood defiles the nation that allows it (Numbers 35:33). Children should not die for the sin of the parents (Deut. 24:16).
The dignity of human life is declared by God (Psalm 8).
David recognized that his humanity had started from the moment of conception (Psalm 51:5).
God renews the face of the earth by creating life (Psalm 104:30).
Children are a blessing from the Lord, a heritage and a reward (Psalm 127:3).
God hates the hands that shed innocent blood (Proverbs 6:16, 17).
God forms us from the womb (Isaiah 44:2).
We have a Christian responsibility to warn the wicked (Ezekiel 3:17-19).
The killing of pregnant women brings God's wrath down upon the wicked (Amos 1:13-15).
Of the children, Jesus said:
"Whoever welcomes a little child like this in My name welcomes Me." Matthew 18:5
"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." Matthew 18:10
"In the same way your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should be lost." Matthew 18:14
What then should the Christian response to abortion be?
In Exodus 1 we read that when the king of Egypt commanded the killing of all the male babies born, God blessed those midwives who refused to kill the new-born.
"Rescue those being led away to death; hold back those staggering towards slaughter." Proverbs 24:11
According to the Christian Action Network, every year in the USA, over one and a half million lives are ended by abortion.
