thousand years ago upon the cruci- fixion of their savior. But as extreme as that anguish may have been, it was undoubtedly nothing compared to the awe and joy at seeing Christ resur- rected on Easter Sunday. Christians are right to feel similar anguish at the fact that the abortion industry continues to hold immense sway over American culture and a large number of politicians. But the Bible tells us that every human being is made in the image of God, and that He knew us “before I formed you in the womb.” This means that God’s love abounds for every unborn life, and that the hope Jesus provided through his death and resurrection will never
cease, even in spite of all the broken- ness in our world. Already there are some promising signs that the pro-life movement is gaining ground in the culture. Accord- ing to a Marist poll from last year, 71 percent of Americans want some limits on abortion — including 49 percent of Democrats and 93 percent of Republicans. The Bible never promises us that following God will be easy; in fact, it explicitly says the opposite. Even following the resurrection of Christ, His followers faced hardship, pain, and even death at the hands of a hostile world. Paul was beheaded. Peter was crucified upside down. Thomas was pierced through by spears.
The apostles that led the ministry of Christ did not do so because they expected to be celebrated by the culture. Nor were they extraordi- nary men — in fact, they were chosen precisely because they were ordinary, showing that Jesus’s movement was for everyone. Though our society has not yet seen the ultimate victory over abortion, this Easter, pro-life Americans can take heart in the same words that provided hope to the faithful in Jeru- salem on Easter Sunday: “Peace be with you! Yes, He is alive!”
