FAQs - Abortion

Question:
I am sick of church people getting involved in the abortion issue. It is a matter of personal choice and the church should stay out of it. Abortion is not mentioned in the Bible, so how can the church take it so personally?

Answer:
  • Abortion is a spiritual issue - Deuteronomy 30:19, Ephesians 6:12
  • Abortion is satan's attempt to destroy righteous seed
  • It happened in the Old Testament through Pharaoh - Exodus 1:16
  • It happened in the New Testament through Herod - Matthew 2:16
  • We are to defend the cause of the helpless - Psalm 82:3-4, Proverbs 31:8-9
  • Children are precious to God - Isaiah 44:24, Isaiah 49:1, Psalm 127:3, Jeremiah 1:5
  • Thou shalt not kill - Exodus 21:13, Genesis 9:6, Deuteronomy 27:25, Exodus 23:7, Amos 1:13
