Introduction:
In all
the wars fought by the USA, a total of over 1.2 million soldiers have died.
This study is about the people who have died in a different war: the war on the
unborn. Since the United States Supreme Court ruled in 1973 that unborn babies
could legally be killed, between 1 and 1.5 million unborn babies have been
legally killed in this country every year. The yellow pages of any phone book
list several nearby clinics where women can "terminate a pregnancy."
But no
human legislature and no human court has final authority over what is morally
right or wrong. Nazi law and Communist law allowed the killing of millions of
adults. Was that moral? God is the final authority in determining what is
morally right or wrong, regardless of what any man may say (Isa. 55:8,9; Luke
16:15; 1 Cor. 1:18-25). We must obey God rather than men (Acts 5:29).
The
purpose of this study is to consider exactly what the Bible teaches about
abortion. The Bible is the perfect standard of right and wrong (2 Tim. 3:16,17;
1 Cor. 14:37; John 12:48). Too much has been said about abortion without
adequately considering the Bible teaching.
