What does the Bible say about
abortion?
Q. What does the Bible say about abortion or is there any reference in the Bible about abortion?? (Submitted by: Corrie) A. The sixth commandment in Exodus 20 and Deuteronomy 5 tell us not to murder another human being without cause.The question that people today have is what is a human being? They are refusing to obey the word that God had written for the benefit of all of us. God speaks of knowing someone in the womb like with Jeremiah. "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations." ( Jer 1:5) How could someone be known by God in the womb if God had not given that person a soul and mind and spirit which makes that person a human being? Jesus was given the Holy Spirit from conception in its entirety. He was begotten by it making him a special human being who has the mind of God not the mind of man within him. That is why he is called God with us or Immanuel. ( Isaiah 7:14 and Matthew 1:23) Another bit of evidence to prove that human beings are considered by God as whole and viable from conception is the fact that God knew before children were born what kind of people that they would be. |
