Lake of Fire

Man: The state of south Dakota

has decided that they're going to pass a statute

that literally echoes the kind of statute that existed

prior to the decision in roe versus Wade.

It says that abortion is prohibited in all circumstances

except where necessary

to protect the life of the mother.

Governor Mike Rounds was under incredible pressure

from, not just in the state of south Dakota,

but all over the world.

He had emails and letters and pressure put on him.

But Governor Mike Rounds

did what he knew in his heart to be truth.

And he did the right thing.

And he stepped up to the plate

and his name will go down in history

as a great governor.

And I believe that we need

to set our standards higher in this nation

and not just settle for a physical relationship,

but have it be something that's a heart-to-heart.

And have it be not just about lust

but have it be about love.

You have to draw the conclusion

that there is a very, very strong possibility

that within the next three years,

between now and the time that this piece of legislation

would find itself on the benches

of the members of the United States supreme court,

that there will be an opportunity for President Bush

to appoint another member

to the United States Supreme Court.

And given his selection process

and the fact that he certainly supports

the pro-life side of this issue,

I think we have every reason to expect

that President Bush would appoint another pro-life justice,

which at that time would be

five pro-life versus four pro-abortion.

I mean, what it... What it really breaks down to here, for me

is that abortion is part of a huge issue on both sides.

But the difference between the pro-choice

and the pro-life movements right now

is that the pro-choice movement is the only movement

truly trying, or attempting,

to decrease the need for abortion.

It would be sense-making

to say that birth control to...

Being accessible and affordable to people

that want to prevent unwanted pregnancies

would be crucial.

But yet the pro-life movement

is not only targeting abortion,

but they're targeting birth control,

they're equating birth control to abortion,

especially emergency contraception.

And then next, they go after sex education.

So in the pro-life movement's ideal,

people do not have sex until marriage,

nor do they know anything about pregnancy prevention,

use birth control,

or ever encounter any sexual trans...

Sexually transmitted diseases.

It's kind of amazing.

So...

I wish I could live there.

Someone that believes in God

and has a relationship with Jesus Christ

is going to heaven and is going to live forever.

Someone that does not have a relationship with Jesus Christ

is going to burn in hell forever.

So either way, you're going to live forever.

You can make that choice, either heaven or hell.

It's up to you.

Burt: Hell is like a lake of fire.

Torment forever and ever in the lake of fire.

Man: What is a lake of fire?

Oh, I... I visualize it like it must be like lava

coming out of a volcano, except there are people in it,

and they're burning and burning and burning

and they want to die, but they can never die.

Heaven is the most beautiful place you can imagine.

There's no sickness, there's no tears, there's no crime.

And best of all, Jesus is there.

Man: I thank you for all the young people

that have come out today, father.

I thank you for their zeal and for their commitment, Father God.

And I pray that you bless them for that, lord.

And I pray mostly that they take this home with them, Father God,

that this is not a once-a-year event, father,

that this is a daily event for them, God.

God, I pray that you keep me humble

and I pray that you help me to lead young people, father God.

I thank you, in Jesus Christ's name.

Amen.

Thank you, Jesus.

Man: This is my fourth march for life.

But three months ago,

I got a call from my younger brother.

He said, "Jeff, my girlfriend's pregnant.

I'm scared.

What should I do?"

He was helpless...

And he was scared.

And he loved his baby.

Our whole family tried to help.

Um...

My parents offered to adopt the baby;

my brother offered to marry his girlfriend.

Christian families offered to give her a place to live.

I was able to put her in touch with pregnancy help centers

to provide her with food, clothing, a job,

daycare while she went to school.

My parents offered to pay for a babysitter

if she wanted to keep the baby.

And at first, it seemed like, you know,

she wanted to have the baby,

and she seemed a bit excited.

Um...

And then she talked to two of her roommates

who had had abortions before...

And things got to be desperate.

Uh, maybe eight weeks into the pregnancy,

my brother called and he's like, "Jeff, call her.

Just call her. Just call her on the phone.

I'm scared. She says she doesn't want to marry me,

she doesn't want the baby."

About this November...

Towards the end of November, near Thanksgiving...

My brother's girlfriend set up an appointment

at a Pittsburgh abortion clinic.

Have you ever seen the look on a father's face

when his child's about to die

and he's completely helpless to stop it?

Just think of how many fathers

of those crosses out there

who don't know anybody,

who don't know what's available for help,

how desperate they must feel.

Man: Praying for ending of abortion in America

and the entire world is a prayer

that would be worth your while.

Because some day this thing is going to be turned around.

It may not be in our lifetimes, but...

But some day when the Messiah returns

and at the resurrection,

the... the dead bodies will come out of the graves and...

And everyone will have to answer what they've done where...

Wherever they are.

Various: Not the church, not the state,

women must decide their fate!

Not the church, not the state,

women must decide their fate!

Not the church, not the state,

women must decide their fate!

Not the church, not the state,

women must decide their fate!

Man: One minute after birth

is capital punishment, murder one.

One minute before is an abortion.

It is 100% legal.

A first trimester abortion is a tiny puddle of flesh!

Pro-life number one! God loves us.

What if you don't believe in God?

This shall happen in the presence of his majesty.

Woe, woe, woe to this evil generation.

How could we say we believe in God

and butcher one and a half million babes every year?

How could we?

Man: A miracle of a new generation

that will catch the vision and shoulder the burden.

Only you can see beyond this crossroads.

Only you can see the fruit of our labors and our sacrifice.

But today, on this 20th anniversary,

we stand determined, we stand united!

Amen!

Crowd: Amen.

Man: Praise God.

We have the passion and the vision

and the courage of knowing that we are right.

We are right, they are wrong,

as we cling to the word of God.

Where... where police are telling us that we can't pray.

Where they're arresting us for saving babies.

Where we have forced abortion, forced sterilization,

gang violence in our cities.

You women who have a maternal passion beating in your breast,

don't keep it in your kitchen only,

take it down to the school board,

take it down to the city legislature and run for office.

I'd rather have a 100 deborahs

than one cowardly ahab who cowers to jezebel!

Everyone now!

We have a two-fold plan: Number one is to save

as many children as we can from death.

And number two, it's to be a prophetic witness

to the Clinton administration

that we will not back down on upholding the law of God.

If this nation... If Bill Clinton

is going to reject the law of God,
