NOTE: At this time this information is not for public distribution. Thank you for not sharing this page on any public formats. I will have information ready soon for public distribution.
Thank you for taking the time to hear my invitation to join me and other pastors in the Magic Valley to partner together in requesting the city council of Twin Falls to adopt code language to not allow any one or any organization to perform induced abortions within the city. We will need to do the same for the county and surrounding counties soon if this is adopted.
After watching this video invitation would you consider joining me in person to discuss this proposal with a Q/A time that can equip us to best prepare God’s people for what may be before us in our community and the need to not get distracted from the main duty before us of the display of the glory of God and the spread of the Gospel?
If so…
…please join me on Tuesday, July 2, 2019 at 204 Eastland Drive North (Eastside Baptist Church) at 7:00 p.m. I hope to see you.
Please feel free to contact me at 208-410-2529 or paul@esbcTwinFalls.com if you have any questions.
May God bless you, may God bless your family, may God bless His name and pour out His mercy upon our region with a revived church and an awakened valley.
The actual draft code is not available yet. What I do have ready for your consideration is an introduction explaining reasons why I will be asking the city to adopt such code. It is still a draft form and not ready for distribution. You can read the draft below, but please do not distribute it at this time.

WHEREAS, The Bible reveals that all human life is created in the image of God, and therefore every person is valuable to our Creator (Genesis 1:27; 9:6); and
WHEREAS, The Bible affirms that the unborn child is a person, bearing the image of God, from the moment of conception (Psalm 139:13– 16; Luke 1:44); and
WHEREAS, Idaho code (Title 32 – chapter 1) Identifies the unborn child conceived, but not yet born, is to be deemed an existing person so far as may be necessary for its interest, in the event of its subsequent birth from the moment of fertilization, and Idaho code (Title 18 – chapter 40) defines a human being including, but not limited to, a human embryo or fetus.
WHEREAS, Citizens of the Magic Valley of South Central Idaho are pleased to live independent and respectful lives with each other; and
WHEREAS, There were 258 procedures reported to terminate pregnancies without a live birth on innocent, unborn persons in the city of Twin Falls in 2017; and
WHEREAS, since 2008, 1,914 human babies have been aborted in the city of Twin Falls. That’s equivalent to the population of the cities of Hansen, Eden, and Castleford.
WHEREAS, According to the Bible, all persons have an unrighteous nature and are spiritually bankrupt of being righteous and in need of a sufficient redeemer.
Let it therefore be
RESOLVED, According to the Bible, Jesus is the only sufficient redeemer by which persons can be saved from the judgment of God; and
RESOLVED, That we, the God fearing citizens of the Magic Valley, repent of our collective silence before God and man of this heinous act against humanity that has been allowed to carry on in our city; and
RESOLVED, That we, the God fearing citizens of the Magic Valley appeal to you, the city council of Twin Falls, Idaho to hear our voice for the human population that have no opportunity to stand before you and appeal to your conscience to enact this fair and just law that forbids any person or organization to ever again, from this day forward, perform induced abortions upon another fellow person in our city; and
RESOLVED, That we mourn recent lack of action by our state legislators and local representation of our constitutional republic who ignored our appeal of a just and fair bill presented before them to abolish abortion in the state of Idaho; and
RESOLVED, That we make our homes available as suitable sanctuaries for every unwanted child; and
RESOLVED, That we declare the human baby in the womb precious and valuable and a welcome neighbor in our community, so help us God.
