The right to life is sacred.
No human right can legitimise death
In the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Life is a gift of God (Gen 2:7), “the” most Sacred Gift bestowed by God upon humanity.
God the Father, out of infinite Love, has accorded to the woman His Creator’s Right, granting her the Prerogative to give birth to His sons within this humanity. The Woman, understanding this Right and this unique Prerogative assigned to her by God, must be grateful to the Creator (cf. Lk 1:46-47) and must safeguard and defend all this with all her might, with the whole of her life.
And Man, aware of the Gift given to the woman by God the Almighty Father, must promote the application of the Divine Right, and must treasure the Gift of Life (Gen 18:19), defending it by any means possible, so that life may be and may see the light.
The Procreative Act is Sacred (Gen 1:27-28). Therefore, to take a life is a sacrilege, a murder committed against innocents who have no right or means to defend themselves. The right of the unborn child, therefore, takes priority over all other rights, no matter how legitimate or justifiable they may be considered due to acts of violence experienced or whatever suffering the woman may be subjected to.
Love conquers everything. Christ, the only-begotten Love, triumphed over hatred and death by giving His life on the Cross. God loved the world to the point of giving His Son, Jesus, in order to give life to many who had lost it because of sin (Rom 6:23). This is the essence of Christianity, which is pure, holy and made new in the one Love that has conquered a world deprived of its lifeblood, but which can find the Way in Christ-Life, so that no one may deny the Truth (Jn 14:6), the only Truth, which is the Word of Life (Jn 1:14).
This is the example set for us by Jesus, the Son of the Living God. Never will anyone do anything greater than to lay down his life for humanity. Never will anyone do anything greater than to lay down his life for love of his neighbour (Jn 15:13).
In the light of this, every State ruled by law has the right and the duty, primarily human and subsequently Christian (John 13:35), to defend the weakest, those who cannot assert their right to defend what belongs to them and has been given to them by God: Life.
In communion with all the presbyters, deacons and believers, the Universal Christian Church of the New Jerusalem, through the Pontiff and the members of the College of Cardinals in union with all the Bishops, expresses firm dissent (cf. Jn 12:48) and great sorrow for the Law that the Representatives of the French Republic have decided to enact, decreeing that the right to abortion be ratified and inserted into the Nation’s Constitution.
With this Action, the French Nation, over time favoured by Heaven with the numerous Marian revelations and apparitions that have distinguished and characterised it, has actually decided to sever its Friendship with Christ, mortifying the sacrifice of many saints and martyrs, infringing the Commandment of Love established by Jesus (Mt 22:36-40) in the name of a new humanism, thus giving up the Immutable and Universal Order sanctioned by the eternal Commandments of God the Father Almighty (Dt 5).
This Act also represents a grave blow to the heart of Christianity and of the Christian Civilisation, the foundation of the European Continent, once called to be the Centre of the Universal Christianity and of the Civilisation and Progress of the whole world (cf. 1Pt 3:10-12).
Peoples and Nations who take to heart the defence of the Christian Roots and the Rights of the last and the defenceless ones, are to unite in favour of the Right to Life, praying (Ps 36:5-6) and offering sacrifices (Rom 10:1) but also promoting actions and steps made available to them by the Human Rights, so that the Sacred Gift of Life may be loved and defended, protected from its natural conception for as long as God wills.
May Saint Joseph, the Patron of the Universal Church and Custodian of Christianity, in union with the Most Holy Virgin and Baby Jesus (Mt 1:21), stand in defence of the Sacred Gift of Life and Christianity, in defence of the Life of those who have been deprived, by human hands (Ps 6:4), of the first and fundamental Right that God the Father Creator and His Only Begotten Son have given to this humanity (Jn 3:16). In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
