How should Christians engage medical providers who perform abortions?

Approach physicians with truth and sobriety: abortion is the shedding of innocent blood (Exodus 20:13; Proverbs 6:17). Appeal to their conscience and professional oath to heal, not kill.

Offer the gospel of Christ to them, reminding them that Christ forgives every repentant sinner (1 John 1:9), and urge them to cease, confess, and make restitution.

If medical providers refuse to repent, partner with ethical providers only-to show there is a faithful way to practice medicine and to support those who honor life.

Proverbs 28:17 implies that we should not be supportive of one who is burdened with blood-guilt. Because our society does not punish murderers as it ought, we must let them feel their guilt by social ostracization.
