#1 Why is abortion wrong? Abortion is wrong because it is the taking of innocent human life. God commands, “You shall not murder” (Exodus 20:13). A child in the womb is a living human being from conception (Psalm 139:13–16; Lu...
#2 Is birth control ever biblical? Birth control is not always sinful, but some forms are. Methods that destroy an embryo or prevent its implantation are wrong because they end a human life (Exodus 20:13). There is a difference between...
#3 What is the difference between abolition and pro-life? The pro-life movement seeks to regulate abortion. Abolition calls for it to end immediately and completely. Pro-life legislation usually allows abortion in some cases or only prior to certain stages o...
#4 How should Christians respond to rape and abortion? Rape is evil, and those who commit it must face justice (Deuteronomy 22:25–27). But abortion does not bring justice. It takes the life of an innocent child. The child is not guilty of the father’s cri...
#7 Should abortion be punished by law? Yes. A just government must punish those who take innocent life (Romans 13:3–4). Equal justice under the law requires that abortion be treated as homicide. Abortion is not a private medical choice—it...
