Abortion

I do not know what type of excuses people make for abortion. I only say, why to "kill" a baby - why not kill our youthful LUST and why not to follow God?

What does God say about the life and personhood of a fetus? People have worth and identity before they are born. It's in the Bible, Jeremiah 1:5, NIV. "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."

God is at work in a person's life while he is in the womb. It's in the Bible, Psalm 139:13-14, NIV. "For you created my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Your works are wonderful, I know that full well."

God's commandment forbids the taking of life. It's in the Bible, Exodus
20:13, NIV. "You shall not murder."

God's commandments forbid adultery. It's in the Bible, Exodus 20:14, NIV. "You shall not commit adultery."

To leave your spouse for another person may be legal, but it is adultery in God's eyes. It's in the Bible, Luke 16:18, NIV. "Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery, and the man who marries a divorced woman commits adultery."

Lust is a form of adultery. It's in the Bible, Matthew 5:27, NIV. "You have heard that it was said, 'Do not commit adultery.' But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart."

How did Jesus relate to a woman caught in the act of adultery? It's in the Bible, John 8:10-11, TLB. "Then Jesus stood up again and said to her, 'Where are your accusers? Didn't even one of them condemn you?' ‘No sir,’ she said. And Jesus said, 'Neither do I. Go and sin no more.' "

It is God's will that we should avoid sexual immorality. It's in the Bible, I Thessalonians 4:3, NIV. "It is God's will that you should be sanctified: that you should avoid sexual immorality
