The Time is NOW!

Writer: Faye BarnhartFaye Barnhart

Updated: Jan 5, 2024

Never before have we had so many believers aware and engaged! Never before have we had such an opportunity to put forward the 1st Life Initiative on the Colorado ballot since the overturn of Roe!


Whether this is our only or last time we can put forward this kind of initiative, no one knows. But we do know this is the best and only time we have right now to end this holocaust in our state! Actual children will live or die based on what we do this year!


Is God giving our state a chance to do what's right? Is He separating the "wheat from the chaff"? Is He testing us in how we treat "the least of these"? Only God knows the future. And only God knows what we will do with this moment, if we will stand on the right side of history.


Never before have we had such a clear choice between life and death! Never before has this initiative been put forward in the state that educates every Colorado voter on the equal humanity of every living child! Never before have we had a Supreme Court that will uphold this new law on the heels of the overturn of Roe!


Politicians can do what politicians do - speculate, strategize, compromise, see which way the wind is blowing ... but it doesn't matter. Because this is up to "We The People". Just ordinary (and extraordinary) individuals who believe in the foundation of this country:


We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed, by their Creator, with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.--That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, ....

(Declaration of Independence)


What a great promise to live up to! What an important concept for our Posterity who come after us!


What will you spend your time doing this year? Where will your money go this year? Where are you investing your talent? What will you do in your circle of influence and with those looking to you for leadership? What kind of account will you give someday? Are you like the politician, or are you like Martin Luther King, Jr,, Abraham Lincoln, and the fathers of this nation who put their faith into action that changed the course of history?


We can wait a long time for opinions to change, or we can help change them. We can wait a long time for a culture of life to magically evolve, or we can create one. When mutilating and taking the lives of innocent children becomes illegal, we are one giant leap closer to it also becoming unthinkable!


Only God can change the hearts and minds of people. He uses His written Word and the spoken word of others to do it. He has called us to be His hands and feet and mouthpiece. He has instructed us to be a voice for the voiceless.


Let's get practical. If a Constitutional Amendment for the "right to abortion" passes this year, it will be much harder to pass any kind of a life initiative in the future. Right now, we only need a slight majority, the same majority of voters who can defeat the Constitutional abortion amendment. We have this unique window. We have such a time as this! We have this season, to "perform deeds in-keeping with your repentance"!


The choice has never been so straight-forward. We will either keep current law of abortion through birth, or change the law to protect all living children beginning at conception until adulthood from mutilation and intentional death. Which will you choose? When given the choice for these children between life and death, will you choose life for them?


Sign a petition, circulate a petition, and recruit others to circulate a petition to get this important issue on the ballot and have these important conversations. We aren't guaranteed tomorrow. We only have today. Today is the day of salvation! (2 Cor 6:2)


Remember, it is sin to know what you ought to do and then not do it. (James 4:17)


All Official Paper Petitions are due back to the Co-Proponents by March 31, 2024 - Resurrection Sunday! If you want to educate every Colorado voter on the humanity of preborn children, please pick up an Official Paper Petition from your local Distribution Location and talk to the people you see as you go about your daily and weekly routine, "teaching them to obey all that I have commanded you." - (Matthew 28:20)
