Abortionist Kermit Gosnell: The Bible Confirms I Was Doing the Lord’s Work
LIFE NEWS ^ | Feb. 8, 2017 | Cortney O'Brien

Posted on 02/08/2017 5:51:12 PM PST by Morgana

Kermit Gosnell shows no remorse for his abominable actions in his Philadelphia abortion clinic, actions which have him serving multiple life sentences. Gosnell, a late-term abortionist, was found guilty of murdering babies by snipping their necks, and faced charges for racketeering and blatantly ignoring abortion laws. At least one patient died in his clinic due to his neglect. Townhall recently brought you an interview with the authors of Gosnell: The Untold Story of America’s Most Prolific Serial Killer, a bestselling book on Amazon.

His crimes are also described in detail in the documentary 3801 Lancaster: American Tragedy.

The documentary, directed by David M. Altrogge, takes on the disturbing task of giving viewers a tour of Gosnell’s “House of Horrors” abortion clinic. You see everything from his filthy medical rooms to the jars of babies’ feet he kept in his cabinets. In addition to a tour, the documentary features interviews with some of Gosnell’s former patients. In those confessionals, we discover that several of these young women had second thoughts about having abortions. Yet, Gosnell mocked them for their hesitation and refused to take no for an answer.

Altrogge’s documentary, which came out in 2015 but only recently became available for download, subscription video on demand and DVD, is also unique in that it features an interview with Gosnell himself. Altrogge, who phoned Gosnell in prison, said the conversation was “disorienting” and not at all what he expected after reading the case’s grand jury report.

“I think what was surprising is Gosnell had been portrayed as this monster in the media, so I sort of went in expecting to meet a ‘Hannibal Lecter’ type character,” he explained. “I was surprised how friendly and charming he was and very much sane, it was a very disorienting thing. Then you read the accounts of what he did, you remember the interviews with the girls that went to his office, and you see the photographs of the babies who had their necks severed.”

You can hear the strange calmness in Gosnell’s voice, even laughter at certain moments. Most unnerving of all, he did not provide any hint of remorse.

Gosnell told Altrogge that he grew up in the Baptist faith. With such core Christian values, he wanted to find a profession in which he could help the needy.

“People came to me pleading for intervention,” he said.

What he means is that these young women wanted abortions – even in very late stages of their pregnancies. He somehow felt it was his Christian duty to grant their wishes.

Gosnell’s actions, he argues, were justified by the Holy Bible.

“The Bible to me is clear that life doesn’t happen until breath,” he said, referencing the book of Genesis, which reads that God breathed life into Adam.

“I very strongly believe in my innocence,” he said.

Not only that, but he believes his conviction will be overturned and he will one day be “vindicated.”

Gosnell is not the only guilty party in this tragedy. Because of their failure to inspect Gosnell’s abortion clinic for years, the Pennsylvania Department of State and Department of Health are also to blame, the director insists.

“Yes, did they actually use the scissors to sever the spinal cords of the babies’ who were born alive? No, but they chose not to act for decades for political reasons,” Altrogge said.

You can be a Christian, you can go to a church, you can pray all you want, but you will never be forgiven of sin or anything else until you meet God, He is the only one that saves us...

These people committed terrible sins, and God can be forgiving, BUT murder is murder...just saying...

1 new Announcement:

Dear Backers

We wanted you to know this shocking news as soon as possible. We were devastated when we heard Gosnell was being excluded from The New York Times’ main best sellers list even though it was the fourth biggest selling book in the US last week.

Make no mistake our book Gosnell - The Untold Story of Americas Most Prolific Serial Killer was incredibly popular. According to Publishers Weekly, the publishing trade magazine, it was the fourth biggest selling book and Amazon had us consistently as number 3 of ALL books sold in the US.

But The New York Times fiddled the figures and excluded us from the top 15 hardback non-fiction list.

And now they have revealed how they cooked the numbers and it is SHOCKING.

The “newspaper” has admitted it does not use sales numbers to decide which books are “allowed” on its “Best Sellers List”. For The New York Times the numbers of books bought by real people don’t matter. According to a statement they take into account the “context” of the sales. The context?????

According to The New York Times this “context” allows them “to provide Times readers our best assessment of what books are the most broadly popular at that time.” In other words - to hell with the numbers we will decide what is popular and you can be sure it won’t be a truthful book revealing the truth about abortion - even though that is what people are buying. The New York Times Best Sellers List is a Fake List in a Fake Newspaper.

Well we need to send a message to these “elites” who seem to hate the the truth.
Please send this link www.GosnellBook.com to as many people as you can and buy as many copies as you can. Give them to friends or donate them to your local library.

We need to make sure that the mainstream media can no longer ignore this book or the truth about Kermit Gosnell. They tried to coverup the case when he was on trial. We defeated them then and we can do it again.

The cover-up stops now.

Thank you,
Ann and Phelim

I'm having a meeting with my pastor Fr. Pete tomorrow, and I'm bringing him a reprint of this article.

I wanted to talk to him about the false idea which is strongly re-emerging in certain sectors of the Catholic Church, that if you really think you're right, and "your conscience is clear" and you feel "at peace with God," you're OK spiritually and nobody can refuse you Holy Communion.

There are negative prohibitions in God's Law which we have ALWAYS considered to be exceptionless norms: No murder. No adultery. No perjury (false witness). No sodomy. No apostasy.

No means no.

This stance is being challenged at the highest levels, and I mean as high as the Bishop of Rome, where it is considered "more merciful" to let people remain in habitual serious sin and error if they "sincerely" believe is "true for them."

This monster, Gosnell, makes a perfect example of why that is wrong, wrong, wrong.

Babies breathe in the womb.

They breathe liquid but they breathe.

Breathing supplies oxygen to the blood. The fetus gets oxygen from its blood from very early in its development. Ergo, it has had life “breathed into it” while in the womb, and thus he has taken life according to his Bible citations

Herein lies the problem of relying on one's own interpretation of the scriptures. Using the Genesis account to decide when life begins is problematic. Those even allow Jeremiah's account that God knew him in the womb but maintain that he was not a living soul until he drew breath.

, there is a very early writing (The Didache) that shows how the scriptural commandments was applied to the Greeco-Roman (Gentile) cultural issues such as abortion. With that tradition joined with the scriptures, it is impossible to maintain a pro choice (abortion) position.

Excerpt from…

The Teaching of the Twelve Apostles

The Didache

(1st Century AD)


The Lord's Teaching to the Heathen by the Twelve Apostles:

1 There are two ways, one of life and one of death; and between the two ways there is a great difference.

2 Now, this is the way of life:…

The second commandment of the Teaching: "Do not murder; do not commit adultery"; do not corrupt boys; do not fornicate; "do not steal"; do not practice magic; do not go in for sorcery; do not murder a child by abortion or kill a newborn infant. "Do not covet your neighbor's property; do not commit perjury; do not bear false witness"; do not slander; do not bear grudges. Do not be double-minded or double-tongued, for a double tongue is "a deadly snare." Your words shall not be dishonest or hollow, but substantiated by action. Do not be greedy or extortionate or hypocritical or malicious or arrogant. Do not plot against your neighbor. Do not hate anybody; but reprove some, pray for others, and still others love more than your own life.

NOTE to Gosnell. Life begins at conception. As a doctor he would know the biology. He ignored that.

Exodus 21:22-25 is the first recorded fetal homicide law.

All genealogies in Genesis have the fathering or begetting as the beginning of life. Not the birth.

Thanks for that information. I had not known that both of them had made professions of faith while in prison. And it seems their activities after their professions of faith bear witness to the change.

Does he really believes he was doing "the Lord’s work"?

Or is just saying that to impress the prison authorities in some way?

Yep, an excellent point. This sicko knows it though, he is just twisting reality to either insult Christians or help himself cope, maybe both. My bet is on the first since this is like straining at gnats.
