Abortion Is Immoral

To come to the conclusion that abortion is immoral, a woman must first understand what abortions are and why women choose to have them. Pro-life supporters say that abortion equals the murder of a human life, before it's even allowed to live. There are now over 1.3 million surgical abortions per year in the United States; that number greatly increases when the rest of the world is calculated into the equation. Statistics show that many women believe in the immorality of the abortions but still have them for two distinct reasons: lack of financial resources and lack of emotional support. Pro-Life Christians and feminists recognize that it's plain and simple murder and a symptom of, not a solution to, the continuing struggles women face in the workplace, at home, and in society. Pro-life feminists and Christians seek to address root causes because of the fact that each fetus that's aborted is a person and prefer to promote solutions; from prevention to practical resources.

Christians take a strong stand against the aborting of a child. Taking that stance comes from a variety of unbiblical actions that eventually cause a woman to get an abortion. While every person is responsible and accountable to God for actions, society as a whole and Christians in particular should take on a greater role in aiding and offering the truth and alternative avenues for women when facing an unexpected pregnancy aside from just telling them that abortion is immoral. Living with the aftermath of "abortion is murder", can be devastating. The first step in addressing the root causes would be to empower young men and young women with the Holy Spirit by introducing them to the love of God and His forgiving and compassionate nature. The best way is first by modeling a Christ like behavior towards everyone. The secular world watches a Christian in action. If they see a Christian being judgmental and unforgiving, will want no part of Christianity as they perceive it to be. No compassionate person, Christian or Non-Christian wants to see a teenage girl drop out of school and face a lifetime of poverty because she became pregnant. No compassionate person wants her to suffer the pain and anguish of abortion.


Christians need to be careful not to just "preach to the choir", but should be out in the secular world using wisdom and God given understanding to influence men and women to follow God's will for their lives, which includes the understanding that abortion is immoral and unethical in a variety of ways, even if they are not sure about God yet. Boys as well as girls should be included in the efforts to raise awareness to the biological facts. Groups and resource centers regularly get calls from women who feel that it's wrong but who are pressured by partners who say they will pay the $300 for the procedure, but will not pay a dime in child support. Men and boys need to be reminded that the laws have changed and have been strengthened to support child support enforcement, and paternity establishment. No longer can women be coerced into having abortions by threatening to abandon their children if they are born. Payments are not the end all be all of answers. Children that are born need more than just money for support.

Across the country, Americans on both sides of the abortion debate agree that women have a right to make informed decisions about their pregnancies. Women would be empowered to exercise this right by the passage of "Right to Know" legislature. As with any other medical procedure, women have the right to full disclosure of the nature of the abortion procedure. Now, clinics have no uniform inspection or reporting requirements; even veterinary clinics are better regulated. Doctors who have botched abortions, caused infertility or death and lost their medical licenses have been known to jump state lines to continue performing abortions and even open new clinics. There are no regulations to stop them. Why can't the government enforce regulations on abortion if it's a normal medical procedure? They can't because it isn't a normal medical procedure. Abortion is murder. How do you regulate murder? Women, when becoming pregnant, are told that the action's immoral, therefore their character is immoral, and are sometimes forced to discontinue their education or quit their jobs. This isn't a Christian behavior. Christians should show compassion, by supporting those that make mistakes and become pregnant. They should not be playing the blame game, and should be instructing women and men in the truths about abortion. Abortion is murder, and replacing another sin to substitute the sin of fornication is not appropriate. "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." (2 Timothy 2:15)

Abortion Is Wrong


Six weeks after conception, the baby's heart starts beating. It is a real child that sits inside a woman's body. The moment it is conceived, it is a child. An anti abortion argument can be that when people are pregnant the life is called a baby. Immediately the soon-to-be mother starts to think of the life inside of them as an actual life. When women decide to terminate a pregnancy, they are disturbed for a long time due to knowing they are killing a child. This does not necessarily faze them until after the procedure is done. Many years after, women will need to get counseling because they know in their hearts the right thing to do.

Many people will say that rape is a reason to keep abortion legal. These people will say that this is ok under these circumstances. However, abortion is wrong if always looking at the perspective of the child. Killing a child is wrong no matter what is going on with the mother. But rape can also be considered a non argument because usually there can be so much fighting in the condition of a rape that a pregnancy is not likely to happen. Rape has one of the least percentages of people getting pregnant as a result. Therefore this cannot be used as an argument against practices such as this of any type.

If a pregnant mother is murdered, then the murderer will be prosecuted for a double homicide. This law obviously considers an unborn child a real person to be considered. Why then is abortion legal? The mother who has a terminancy of pregnancy is committing the same crime that the murderer of the pregnant mother committed. The government won't say anything that would be a strong decision one way or the other, but will make a law concerning a pregnant mother. People who believe that killing an unborn child is the same as killing a child that has been born should always speak loud supporting their opinion.

So many children are lost because people do not see that abortion is wrong. However, there are cases of children surviving and they have an amazing story to tell. Many of the great people of today could have been aborted. What would we be missing from today's society if we had aborted the great people of this nation? Abortion is wrong because of how much the Lord reveres life in the Bible. He sees this subject with the utmost disgust and disrespect for what He has created. If a mother was to think about how incredible the formation of a baby through her body really is, she might have a different perspective on whether or not to terminate the pregnancy.

When a woman gets pregnant, always consider the baby a blessing no matter how the child was conceived. This is a great anti abortion argument because the Lord would not put a child in anyone's life if He did not have great plans for it. This is another great anti abortion argument because the Lord would never knit together trash and He loves his children and honors them completely

The Lord honors life and gives children as a part of himself. Never does he create a child for the purpose. He has our lives planned from the very beginning and would never choose differently for us. To have an abortion is to take lives into our own hands. This does not honor the Lord in anything and is a great anti abortion argument. In fact, this grieves the Lord to no end. Before we were ever born, the Lord was knitting us together inside our mothers. A thousand years before we came about, the Lord had amazing plans for our lives. It is not right to take those plans into our own hands. If we want to honor the Lord, then we must honor his children no matter how it will affect us. "Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations." (Jeremiah 1:5)
