New Jersey Bill Would Criminalize Pro-Life Speech Outside Abortion Facilities

A New Jersey bill that passed the state Senate would make it a criminal offence to cause 'emotional harm' or 'mental anguish' to abortion providers or patients, potentially silencing peaceful pro-life protesters through vague legal threats. This legislation reflects an accelerating global pattern of governments codifying opposition to biblical values into law, using the language of healthcare and personal harm to criminalise Christian witness and conscience. Scripture warns that in the last days those who stand for righteousness will face systemic legal persecution, as lawlessness is normalised and called good — a sign of the moral inversion preceding Christ's return.
