― Charles W. Colson, The Good Life

“Charles Finney has stated, “Mercy will, of course, manifest itself in action, and in effort to pardon, or to procure a pardon, unless the attribute of wisdom prevent. It may be unwise to pardon, or to seek the pardon of a guilty one. In such cases, as all the attributes of benevolence must necessarily harmonize, no effort will be made to realize its end.”

“At about three weeks, the embryo’s new heart begins pumping blood through a developing circulatory system.”

“The embryo’s DNA differs markedly from the mother’s, and yet in the great majority of cases the mother’s body recognizes that this microscopic new person is not a foreign attacker, so her body doesn’t deploy its defense mechanisms to kill the baby. No one really knows how this works or what mechanisms are involved, but the mother’s tolerance for her baby’s body is recognized in the medical community as one of the great wonders of pregnancy.”
