I don’t get it. If we were talking about legislators who are voted into office, this sort of thing makes sense. But this kind of court is not run on public opinion. The Judiciary is not supposed to be influenced in any way by public opinion. Do people really want the courts to be places where “voters” can “lobby” judges for a decision? ... LOL ...

For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. Matt 18:20

These vigils are intended to "lobby" God, not men.

The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. James 5:16

Ultimately the decision will hinge on whether or not God intervenes. That is why it is imperative that people get together and hold prayer vigils for this issue.

BTW if you don't believe the Supreme Court is run on public opinion, you haven't studied the Supreme Court's history. They pretend to base their opinions on the Constitution and Stare Decisis, but in the end, they stick their fingers into the air and try to see which way the wind is blowing.

The story of Roe v Wade is a stunning example.

Amen!

People seem to forget that God WILL prevail in the end and that there is NOTHING that He can't do.
