Pro-Abortion Pastor: My Church Is “Fired Up” To Vote For Abortion

Pro-abortion pastor Joshua Cole, who is also running for a House of Delegate seat in Virginia, tried to “own” Students for Life Action on Twitter this weekend.

Students for Life Action scorecards were put on churches in Virginia this weekend, including at Cole’s church, Union Bell Baptist Church. Cole, who supports legalized infanticide, took to Twitter to criticize Students for Life Action, claiming that the scorecards were put in the wrong district (apparently not understanding that people go to church outside of the districts they live and vote in sometimes).

.@StudentsforLife came and put lit on the cars in our church this morning… wish they had stayed for service so I could tell them they’re in the wrong senate district…. they just fired up our congregation to vote tues tho! pic.twitter.com/fD2KFHLLhx

Then Allie Stuckey, a pro-life, conservative commentator jumped in, adding:

A “preacher” who’s “fired up” about abortion would do better to spend his time asking God for mercy than tweeting. https://t.co/ZkRTMgUbMo

I’m so sorry you’ve been deceived into thinking killing children in the womb is liberating. I pray you hear and believe the gospel that your soul may be saved and your heart changed. https://t.co/rSpy0qGFla

Cole is sadly one of many pro-abortion ‘pastors’ who believe that killing preborn babies somehow helps women. Or he lacks the courage to stand for the truth of the sanctity of human life.

Michele Hendrickson, the Eastern Regional Director for Students for Life of America, explains exactly why churches must play an active role in abolishing abortion:
