New Jersey Court Rules Jury Must Decide If Abortion Terminates a Life
TRENTON, N.J., April 7, 2006 (LifeSiteNews.com) -

In a stunning reversal for abortion providers, a New Jersey Appellate Court has issued a unanimous opinion that the factual contention that a first trimester abortion terminates the life of a human being is a question to be decided by a jury. In the sixteen page opinion in Rosa Acuna v. Dr. Sheldon Turkish (Appellate Docket # A-4022-03T5), the the Court remanded the case for trial, ruling that whether a first trimester abortion terminates the life of a complete, unique human being presents a fact question for a jury to decide.

Mrs. Acuna contends that she submitted to an abortion after her regular gynecologist -- who she saw for abdominal pain -- recommended that she have an abortion. When Mrs. Acuna asked Dr. Turkish whether her baby was already there, he told her "Don't be stupid, it is just some blood," according to Mrs. Acuna. Mrs. Acuna wanted to know if there was a human being already in existence. Even Dr. Turkish has acknowledged that he would have told her that there was just some "tissue" that was being removed.

Mrs. Acuna has stated that she relied upon representations of Dr. Turkish, and submitted to the abortion procedure. Three weeks later she was rushed to a local hospital because of heavy hemorrhaging and was told by a nurse that the doctor had "left part of your baby in you."
Mrs. Acuna's attorney, New Jersey attorney Harold J. Cassidy, is also the chief counsel for four parties in litigation involving the same factual contentions, currently pending in the Federal District Court in South Dakota and the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit in St. Louis.

In that case, Planned Parenthood sued South Dakota Governor Michael Rounds and Attorney General Larry Long claiming that a South Dakota law enacted in 2005 - - which requires abortion doctors to disclose to a pregnant mother the fact that the abortion will terminate the life of a whole, separate, unique, living human being -- violates the free speech rights of the abortion doctors.

The Acuna case, which is a jury trial, and the South Dakota Planned Parenthood v. Rounds case (Fed. District Ct. Case No. 05-4077; U.S. Court of Appeals Case No. 05-3093) are the only two cases of their nature in the United States. For the fist time in abortion jurisprudence, both cases will decide whether a first trimester abortion terminates the life of a living human being, and implicates questions surrounding the beginning of biological life.

"Mrs. Acuna is grateful that the Appellate Court has again ruled in her favor so that she will be permitted to try her case in a court of law," Mr. Cassidy stated.

"Planned Parenthood in the South Dakota case had pointed to the second lower court decision in the Acuna case before the U.S. Court of Appeals. Its reliance upon the lower court decision that conflicted with the prior Appellate decision was misplaced, and today's opinion will be brought to the attention of that court before the oral argument on April 20th."

On and Off Christians
By David Alan Black The Covenant News ~ April 17, 2006

The first converts to Christianity were not on and off Christians.
This is clear from the language of Acts 2:42-47. The Greek verbs indicate continuing
or repeated action.

These believers kept on or continued in everything they did. They kept on devoting
themselves to doctrine, fellowship, the breaking of bread, and prayers.

They kept on being filled with awe. They kept on sharing everything in common.

They kept on selling their possessions and giving them according to individual need.

They kept on breaking bread together in their homes.

They kept on eating their food with gladness and sincere hearts.
And the Lord kept on adding to their fellowship those who were being saved.

These early Christians knew they could not remain static. They were always going forward and their activity was always purposeful. Christian character is not grown at pleasure resorts.

We do not become saints in our sleep. Great soldiers are not developed in the academy but on the battlefield.Our biggest problem in the church today is lack of commitment.

The professing church has become cluttered with hosts of superficial believers who have never sold out. We put one hand to the plow while the other hand remains behind our back, with fingers crossed.

Self-satisfied complacency and false contentment in the midst of a needy world does not offend us in the least.What made the early Christians different from most of us was that they were genuine.

Programmed activities were never substituted for Christian living. They cared nothing for religious fads that work up mere positive thinking. They had no Easters or Christmases or Good Fridays or 40 Days of Purpose. They actually preferred outright opposition to the frivolous endorsement of men.

Their one desire was to know Christ better, to experience increasingly the power of His resurrection, to enter more and more into the fellowship of His sufferings. They had arrived yet they kept on arriving!

Have you checked your spiritual pulse lately? God expects His people to be good stewards, and it is required of stewards that they be found faithfully doing what their Master requires of them.

The early church did not dodge its responsibilities but met everything as it arose, and evil gave way before it.Our Lord is rallying in the church today His faithful few, His Gideon's band, men and women who mean to do business for God wholeheartedly.

May you, and may I, keep on.

Dear Gateway friends,

Below are three urgent needs at Gateway:

(1) Please pray for Diannia (Dee Dee) Stembridge,
(left) a faithful Tuesday Gateway counselor,who has come down with flu like symptoms. She had had a heart attack in May 2003.


(2) A dear Christian brother is now working in Baltimore at a ministry for troubled youth. He writes: "I just moved to the Baltimore area three weeks ago. We service children and adolescents for adoption, foster care, and who have been displaced from their families. An issue of inappropriate sexuality and its expression through acting out behaviors was discussed in a recent staff meeting. A suggested resource was the possibility contacting Planned Parenthood for a speaker.

Dean, you know my heart. XXXX is a Christian or faith based organization.The CEO committed his life to Christ while in foster care an desires that others in similar situations be reached with the Gospel. When I mentioned that PP was the antithesis of our mission, the response was redirecting me to the Program Director since he mentioned this possibility. This is something that I am willing to approach the Program Director but have the need for prayer and concrete materials for my presentation."

We are contacting local pregnancy centers in Baltimore to help these folks. Please pray that the Lord direct us to the proper CPC for a good Christian outreach to this group."
Thanks, Dean

(3) Geoff Jones, our dear brother in Christ:

Joan Vitale, our associate director writes:

"Our former male counselor, Geoff Jones, is undergoing another surgeryTuesday, April 18th at 8 am. Please pray for Geoff. Two years ago - May 3rd, Geoff had undergone hip replacement surgery and has suffered a stroke during that time.

He has been hospitalized for two years and has come a long way. I believe he needs surgery on his leg - the exact details I haven't been able to get but the Lord knows. Please lift him up in prayer."
