From the Inside Flap
William Wilberforce
"For since, in the wisdom of God, the world did not know God through wisdom, it pleased God through the folly of what we preach to save those who believe. For Jews demand signs and Greeks seek wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles, but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.
1 Corinthians 1:21-24 (ESV)

Becker discusses the history of pro-life activism and why the "lesser of two evils" strategy in American politics has resulted in a practical failure of the goal of making abortion illegal as it was for the majority of American history. So is there a possibility of victory after 40 years of legalized abortion? The legal definition of `personhood' is the answer, as Becker defines as the `biblical' definition of personhood - that all human life is sacred, in that all human life bears the image of God, the Creator.
A veteran of Georgia state politics, Becker traces the history of the pro-life movement in the state, including his own run for office and his controversial campaign strategy, as well as the re-dedication of the movement to a no compromise stance for all incumbents and candidates and the subsequent legal successes in the state to date since pursuing the establishment of biblical `Personhood.'
This is a practical and inspiring must-read for all those who work for the protection of the lives of the unborn in America.
Daniel Becker to me is one the people Leonard Ravenhill spoke of when addressing ministers stated: "One of these days some simple soul is going to pick up God's word and read it and believe it and then we are ALL going to be embarrassed! We have adopted the convenient theory that the Bible is to be explained, whereas first and foremost it is to be believed and then obeyed!"
Read "Personhood" It cleared up my misconceptions about this stratagy. In fact I bought 45 copies to give out.
Becker’s thesis is a defense of principled pro-life activism and humanity’s intrinsic value derived from the Imago Dei.
If you wish to better understand the heart of the pro-life movement, you will love this book.
