It is good for the world to see how small, yet developed, an infant is at 26 weeks gestation. The babies gender is clearly selected by God. The color of the hair and eyes has been determined. Most importantly, the baby is alive and is a member of the human race. People would fight to keep such a creature alive if it were a puppy or whale at the same stage of living. It is from Satan, the ruler of this world, to take a living human's life.
Standing for life has become political because people are bereft of conscious; they have become hardened by their own wrong doing so cannot or will not stand against the tyranny of the death culture.
Turn from your sin while there is time. Believing Jesus is God's son is not enough to save you from eternal Hell when you die. Believing there is a God is not enough either. Believing there is right and wrong is not enough either, even if you couple all of these things with attending church somewhere. If all these things are true of you, reader, you MUST understand how sinful YOU are. How short YOU fall daily of God's glory. That YOU offend the Holy God by your very existence because like all of us, you were born as a sinner.
The Bible teaches that we sin by omission (not doing what we should) and commission (doing what we should not). Until we see how lost we are, we will not be able to come to God on the terms He has set forth.
We are to be humble, realize He says our good works are as filthy rags. Let that sink in. Apart from the working of the Holy Spirit in our lives as saved people, we cannot please God. Our good works are seen as menstrual cloths. The distance between us and God, apart from Jesus Christ, is a wide chasm that we will not cross over on our own. We must be washed in the blood of the lamb. His blood must be the covering that God sees when He looks upon us, because He cannot be in the presence of that which is unclean.
Take time to see how holy God is and read His word to see your true identity. You will find that confessing your sin after truly seeing how lost you are is the key to salvation in Christ. Some verses to sum it up are below.
If you are new to reading the Bible, may I suggest you start with John? Romans is deep but read it as well. Many of the passages below are from that book.
God's word has been preserved in 66 books that met rigorous tests. The old and new Testament give us all the information God wants us to have, and they do not align with any one man-made religion.

for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, (Romans 3:23)
For all of us have become like one who is unclean, And all our righteous deeds are like a filthy garment; And all of us wither like a leaf, And our iniquities, like the wind, take us away (Isaiah 64:6)
For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 6:23)
All of us like sheep have gone astray, Each of us has turned to his own way; But the LORD has caused the iniquity of us all To fall on Him. (Isaiah 53:6)
If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. (I John 1:9)
For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; (Eph 2:8)
Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come. (2 Cor 5:17)
