#8 What about ectopic pregnancy? Ectopic pregnancy is a tragic and rare condition where the embryo implants outside the womb. In most cases, the baby cannot survive. But it's not medically necessary to immediately remove the baby! Ab...
#10 Does science prove life begins at conception? Yes. Science shows that a new human life begins at conception. From that moment, the embryo has its own DNA and grows by its own internal direction. This truth supports what Scripture has always revea...
#13 What about contraceptives that cause early abortion? Some contraceptives can cause early abortion by preventing an embryo from implanting or surviving. Such methods destroy a human life and are morally wrong (Exodus 20:13). Christians must research and...
#19 What medical evidence shows life-saving care for ectopic pregnancies differs from abortion? Medical evidence clearly distinguishes life-saving care for ectopic pregnancies from abortion. An ectopic pregnancy occurs when a human embryo implants outside the uterus—most often in a fallopian tub...
#21 Are hormonal contraceptives that prevent implantation morally permissible? Anything that prevents implantation ends the life of a newly conceived child. Scripture honors the fruit of the womb as God’s heritage (Psalm 127:3) and forbids the shedding of innocent blood (Exodus...
#24 What do ultrasound studies reveal about fetal pain? Ultrasounds show coordinated movement, stress responses, and nociception well before 20 weeks. Scripture already testifies to living children in the womb (Luke 1:41). These studies confirm what the Bi...
#27 How does Psalm 139 inform our view of embryos created in laboratories? Psalm 139:13-16 honors God's knitting from the first moment. Embryos made in a lab are still created by Him, and are not disposable property. Creating spares to freeze or discard treats people as prod...
#29 Can Christians participate in fetal tissue research? Harvesting or using tissue from children slain by abortion joins hands with bloodshed (Proverbs 6:16–17). Even noble aims cannot justify doing evil that good may come (Romans 3:8). Christians must ref...
#31 Does emergency contraception act as an abortifacient? Many “emergency” pills thin the uterine lining and prevent implantation. If they can expel or starve a conceived child, they are abortifacient and violate “you shall not murder” (Exodus 20:13). Christ...
#37 How do chemical abortions impact women's health? Like all sin, chemical abortions (mifepristone/misoprostol) are bad for the sinner as well as the one sinned against. By starving your child to death, then expelling him or her, you naturally incur co...
#44 Does a detectable heartbeat prove personhood scientifically and biblically? Heartbeat detection simply reveals what God made at conception: a human person (Psalm 139:13–16). Personhood does not begin with a detectable pulse; life begins when God knits the child together at co...
#45 How do we answer claims that abortion is healthcare? We answer that claim by going back to the truth about what abortion is . Scripture and reason both reveal that abortion is the intentional killing of an innocent human being . No act that deliberately...
#47 When does human life begin? Biblical Answer: In the book of Job, the patriarch exclaims that he was a living being "from my mother's womb" (Job 3:11). Job says, "why did I not die at birth?", indicating he was alive in the womb...
#65 How should Christians view genetic testing when Down's Syndrome is suspected? Genetic screenings must not become a pretext for murder. Every child, including those with Down's Syndrome are created by God and inherently deserve protection. Testing may inform care, but it must ne...
#92 What ethical issues arise with prenatal blood testing? Prenatal blood tests can be helpful for care but are often used to target children for abortion. The information gained must be stewarded for the child’s good, not destruction. Couples should reject a...
