Stop Killing my precious unborn children!

Media Release 16 July 2025

God, the author of life gave us the Fifth Commandment, “Thou shalt not kill.” We ignore it at our peril.

For nearly 50 years since the passing of the Contraception Sterilization and Abortion Act 1977, an estimated 600,000 innocent and defenseless unborn children, our brothers and sisters, have been killed in New Zealand in their mother’s womb.

We have ignored the silent screams of the unborn who have been poisoned, scraped out of their mother’s womb or have been violently dismembered. Their innocent blood soaks our land and cries out to God for justice.

God will not be mocked. He is patient with our sinfulness, but His justice demands that our nation repents for the sin of abortion that gives appalling grief and pain to God, and is also a crime against humanity.

Every unborn child is a unique and unrepeatable miracle of God’s loving creation, who from the moment of conception is a human being endowed by their Creator with an inalienable right to life.

Shame on our Parliament, which has arrogantly sought to repeal the Fifth commandment, ”Thou shalt not kill.” It has foolishly legislated to deny the humanity of the unborn child, endowed from conception with an inalienable right to life. The protection of the state has been withdrawn for the life of the child, and the state has decreed that every woman has a right to kill her child effectively for any reason up to birth, funded by as a “reproductive health service.”

Shame on the deafening silence of many churches, who should be at the forefront in defending the lives of God’s precious infants. but choose to remain silent at the murder of God’s precious infants.

Shame on the medical profession, the New Zealand Nurse’s Association, the New Zealand Midwives Association and the Pharmaceutical Society of New Zealand, whose members have abandoned their unborn patients and are prepared to cooperate in the killing of our precious unborn and the spiritual, physical and psychological wounding of their vulnerable mothers.

Shame on the mainstream news media, who have banished the unborn from their stories and broadcasts, and banished those who dare to defend them.

A nation that kills its own children is a nation without a future. May God have mercy on us for we know not what we do.
