Mike Pence Gives Unflinching Answer When Asked If He Wants Roe v. Wade Overturned

It is amazing how often folks flinch when given a chance to speak the truth. Yet, we shouldn’t be too surprised–it is in our fallen human nature to fear man rather than God. Peter exhibited some of the same problems and Paul had to call him out for it:

But when Cephas (Peter) came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face, because he stood condemned. For before certain men came from James, he was eating with the Gentiles; but when they came he drew back and separated himself, fearing the circumcision party. And the rest of the Jews acted hypocritically along with him, so that even Barnabas was led astray by their hypocrisy. But when I saw that their conduct was not in step with the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas before them all, “If you, though a Jew, live like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how can you force the Gentiles to live like Jews?” (Galatians 2:11–14 ESV)

When speaking about opposing abortion recently, though, Vice President Mike Pence didn’t have any problems speaking plainly on the subject:

Vice President Mike Pence has stayed true to his staunch pro-life position when asked about whether he would like to see Roe v. Wade overturned. Pence, who has made several speeches at leading pro-life organizations since taking office, was asked by CNN’s Dana Bash whether he wants to see the landmark ruling, which legalized abortion nationwide, be reversed. “I do,” he answered.

Bash quizzed Pence on his opinion of President Trump’s latest nominee to the Supreme Court, Judge Brett Kavanaugh. Despite being a staunch conservative, Kavanaugh has been careful not to state his unwavering opposition to the Roe ruling. When asked whether he was worried the newest justice would fail to do enough to satisfy the pro-life community, Pence responded:

Well, Dana, as you know, I’m pro-life; I don’t apologize for it, and I’m proud to be part of a pro-life administration that’s advanced pro-life policies. But what I can assure you is that what the president was looking for here was a nominee who will respect the Constitution as written, who will faithfully uphold the Constitution in all of his interpretations of the law.”
