GOD IS THE ONE WHO DEFINES WHEN LIFE BEGINS

“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you. Before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations”.

Jeremiah 1:5 (KJV)

—It has been stated,”If the womb had windows, there would be no abortion”. As humans, we are not omnipresent and cannot know the full scope of what each human life is worth.We cannot dwell in the womb with a fetus, nor can we see it as it matures. But God can.

A SCIENTIFIC VIEW OF ABORTION

Just 18 days after conception, the baby’s heart begins to beat. At six weeks, brain waves can be measured. At eight weeks, the vital organs are functioning and fingerprints have formed. At nine weeks, the unborn baby is able to feel pain. Over 700,000 abortions each year are performed after this point.

By the beginning of the second month, the unborn child, has begun to look distinctly human. By the time the baby is eleven weeks old, he or she breathes, swallows, digests, tastes, hears, sleeps, and dreams.

Babies that are born prematurely can survive outside the womb as young as 20-25 weeks old. All that is necessary to make the baby a grown human being is already there from the moment of conception.

Though it is wee & tiny…it is still a real person, just as a crumb of bread is still real bread. No one who has been given the gift of life should despise the day of small beginnings. Have we forgotten so quickly that we were once as small?

WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS ABOUT ABORTION

Psalm 106 is a powerful testament to God’s love for humankind and His unwavering opposition to the taking of innocent life. In this psalm, God speaks with great specificity about the heinous act of killing innocent children and babies. It is clear that God’s heart breaks at the thought of such a terrible crime, and He is quick to condemn those who would commit such an atrocity.

Throughout the Bible, we see God’s deep concern for the sanctity of life. He is a God who values every single human being, and He is deeply grieved by the senseless loss of life. Whether it is murder, war, or any other form of violence, God is always on the side of the innocent.

It is important to note that God’s judgment against the taking of innocent life is not rooted in a desire for vengeance or punishment. Rather, it is a natural outgrowth of His love for humankind. God knows that every life is precious, and He will not stand idly by while the innocent are harmed.

In short, Psalm 106 is a powerful reminder of God’s love for us and His deep concern for the sanctity of life. It is a call to all of us to value and protect the lives of those around us, especially the innocent and vulnerable.

According to the book of Jeremiah in the Bible, God spoke to the prophet and said, “Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you.” This statement is a powerful reminder that God has a plan for each and every one of us, even before we are born. It is a testament to the fact that God is intimately involved in the creation of every human being, and that he has a purpose for each of us.

As Jeremiah was forming in his mother’s womb, God was already at work, giving him his unique personality, talents, and temperament. It is fascinating to think about how God carefully crafted Jeremiah, molding him into the person he was meant to be.

And if Jeremiah’s mother had chosen to have an abortion, the “fetal tissue” she would have aborted would have been a real person named Jeremiah. He would have been a mighty prophet of God, with a powerful voice that would have spoken to the nations.

This passage is a powerful reminder of the sanctity of life, and of the fact that every human being is created in the image of God. It is a call to cherish and protect the lives of the unborn, and to recognize that each and every one of us has a purpose and a destiny that is ordained by God.

It is abundantly clear that the inception of life occurs at the precise moment when God creates it. Unlike humans, who tend to judge things based on their stage of development, God’s love and care extend to even the tiniest embryo. From the very first moment of existence, each and every living being is the recipient of His boundless affection and attention.

It is truly remarkable to consider the intricate details that God has woven into the fabric of life, from the complex cellular processes that occur within the womb to the miraculous transformations that take place during the course of a lifetime. Indeed, the beauty and wonder of life are a testament to the infinite wisdom and creativity of our Creator.

In the grand scheme of things, the Almighty sees every single one of our lives in the context of our entire existence. This includes those who have yet to be born, as well as those who are currently in the prime of their lives, such as a young woman with her whole future ahead of her. It also encompasses those who are in the twilight of their years, like an elderly man who is lying in his deathbed, reflecting on a lifetime of experiences.

Abortion is a highly controversial topic that has been debated for decades. Many people believe that it is wrong, plain and simple. They argue that it is nothing short of murder, plain and simple. After all, what gives us the right to define when life begins?

It is a question that has puzzled philosophers, theologians, and scientists alike for centuries. Some argue that life begins at conception, while others believe that it begins at birth. Regardless of where you stand on the issue, it is clear that abortion is a complex and emotionally charged topic that deserves careful consideration and thoughtful discussion.
