This may be one of the most important things that I think I have ever shared. Regardless of what party you belong too, what your religious beliefs are, or what stance you take on abortion you need to watch this video! It could save an unimaginable amount of lives. It could even save the life of someone you know and love.

I had to share this video that I recently found and I truly hope that everyone will watch it and share it with everyone they know. This is one that everyone no matter who you are man or woman you should watch and share with all your family and friends and anyone else who will listen! 

Have you ever wondered why there are still so many unplanned pregnancies even in this modern age of widely used and available birth control? More women and men use some form of birth control than ever before and yet there are still an astronomical amount of unplanned pregnancies each year, - which leads to more abortions than ever before. Because organizations that are in the abortion industry like Planned Parenthood are purposely giving FAULTY birth control to women. This is truly chilling! Hear the true details of how some "women's health care" facilities purposely give low dose birth control and faulty condoms to their clients knowing that it will result in unplanned pregnancies to bolster their abortion businesses. They make much more money from abortions than they do from any other service they provide. It's time to expose the truth and stop this tragedy from happening! It has already taken to many lives and ruined to many others already! 

It's time to blow the lid off of what is really going on!

Blood Money is a documentary narrated by Dr. Alveda King (niece of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.), Bloodmoney takes a critical look into the dark origins of abortion, and return with a deeply disturbing picture: how a movement based on racism and population control usurped the momentum of the women’s rights movement to create something truly despicable– a multi-billion dollar industry that literally thrives on the destruction of unborn babies and the traumatizing of young pregnant women.

Help Women in Crisis Make a Better Choice

They call this "choice" and a "right" to women. While they deny the choice and the rights of others, that of their beautiful children who are innocent and have done nothing wrong what about their rights? What about all the choices that they should have and should be allowed to make? God is the giver of all life and he is the only one who has the right to take it. He said in his Holy word "Thou shalt not kill" it truly doesn't get any clearer than that. And for those that aren't believers you have to look no further than our own Declaration of Independence (which also points to the providence and authority of God and rightly so) which states..."We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

There is a reason that LIFE was the first thing that they mentioned when they stated a person's rights. Because without the right to life all other rights are meaningless.

Many want to say that abortion is a political issue but it's NOT it is a civil rights issue it is a human issue it's literally life or death. It is the "choice" to take away every right from another human being.

The abortion industry has recently started a campaign to try to separate themselves from the word "choice" and are thinking of rebranding themselves and moving away from the term "Pro-choice" because they realize that their bottom line is starting to hurt as more and more people realize what abortion really is and what it's doing to not only the children that they are killing, but the women who they lie to and deceive into thinking that it's an easy fix to their problem. The abortion industry tells them  that it's not taking a life it's just a blob of tissue, it's not a baby "yet", it's a just fetus. Those who once worked in the abortion industry like Abby Johnson, Carol Everett, and many others that have since seen the light and now are speaking out and telling what really goes on behind the closed doors of abortion clinics, and the tactics that they use to mislead women all admit this. They have testified stating that to dehumanize the baby everyone at the abortion clinics never, ever uses the word baby or child in a clinic because doing so could put the image and thought that what the woman is actually carrying is indeed a baby into the mother's mind and they might not go through with the abortion if they thought of it as anything but blob of tissue or a fetus. So they always call the unborn child a fetus to try and make it sound like it's not a baby "yet" it's just a bunch of cells that hasn't formed yet. Then they rush them through with the abortion as soon as they can before they can have a chance to think, and change their minds. To them life is not life it's all about money, it's all about the bottom line. They care nothing about the babies they are killing and they care nothing about the women who they are hurting. But these poor women have to suffer the rest of their lives with that decision and the pain and grief that comes along with it. Many of them are tortured and haunted for the rest of their lives by that "choice" and some even suffer physically with problems that affect them for the rest of their lives. Some even die due to the "safe and legal" abortions and the abortion causing drugs they are given.

Each and ever one of us if you want to get extremely technical are still a bunch of cells and blobs of tissue! We are all grown up fetuses! The only difference between us and those beautiful little children that are being killed everyday all over the U.S. is that we had a mother who chose life for us and we were allowed to grow where they were not. We are no better than them and it could have just as easily have been us or those that we love, that those people in the abortion clinics so heartlessly and carelessly dismember and throw in the trash as if we were nothing.

GOD gives each and every one of us life, and every one of us has a living soul that has immeasurable value! Every life matters and is put here for a reason. And when those lives are killed and not allowed to do what they were put here for how much has the world been altered by that? No one can truly know the answer to that, but stop and think for just a moment, what could the over 55 million people who lost their lives to abortion have done to help this world how they could have changed it for the better! What has America already given up and what blessings and invaluable advances to mankind has it already aborted? Who of those children could have grown up and would have already found a cure for cancer, discovered unimaginable new medicines and procedures to help those who are sick and suffering with all kinds of diseases and illness. How many could have been helping to end world hunger, abuses, and injustices. They might have found ways to help countless millions the world over in immeasurable ways but they never had the chance because their lives were discarded as a "choice".

If you believe in that choice are you willing to listen to and truly LOOK at the truth of what that "choice" really is? To truly SEE what abortion really is and does...

I made these graphics last week for the upcoming 40th anniversary of Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton. I intend to make a few more in the next week God willing. Please feel free to download these and share them on all your social networking sites, websites, blogs etc. and share them with all your family and friends.

No other court decisions have so greatly impacted our country as Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton. They have taken the lives of more Americans than all of the wars that have been fought by the U.S. since it's founding combined. It's truly staggering when you actually think about the sheer numbers of people who's lives have been snuffed out before they ever had a chance to take their first breath outside the womb. Since 1973 over 55 million children have been aborted in the U.S. More than 3,700 are killed everyday that is more than were killed on 9/11. It's like having a disaster worse than 9/11 happening every single day. I ask you why is there not a cry so loud that it could be heard around the world over so many needless killings of our fellow American's?

And we wonder why our country is in so much trouble?

"Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself."  Mark 12:31 

Is killing our fellow Americans our brothers and sisters love??? 

Please remember to pray for the young women who are struggling with unplanned and difficult pregnancies, pray for an end to abortion, take part in sidewalk counseling in front of the abortion mills, share some pro-life graphics on Facebook or twitter or one of the other social sites you belong too. Share some pro-life stories and videos with others, post links to crisis pregnancy centers. And most of all don't be SILENT talk about and teach others the truth about abortion. Everyone can do something to help. If you are being silent in fear of hurting anothers feelings or being politically correct you (however unintentionally) are part of the problem that has allowed this travesty to continue for these almost 40 years. Please stop and think and ask yourself truly what is more important? Hurting a few people's feelings which if you ever take a stand for anything you are going to do it is inevitable...or saving LIVES??? That includes the lives of the women who are hurting and being damaged for life everyday by abortion. Apathy is destroying our nation. Will you take a stand for life and help to put an end to abortion for the good of all American women, children and men!

Let's all work together and harder than ever to END this tragedy once and for all. 40 years is way far to long, it's time to Abort ROE and DOE!

(These graphics have also been added to the graphics page and the new ones will be added as soon as I finish them. So please check back on the graphics page often for more to share! It's an easy way to get the word out on abortion and about standing up for LIFE!)

This is a question that comes up a lot when you start to talk to people in depth about abortion. I have found personally that many people aren't really aware of the real facts and laws about abortion. Many people still think that abortions are only legal for a certain period of time early on in a pregnancy like in the first and possibly second trimesters. Many think that late term abortions are still illegal at least in most states. So it is extremely shocking to many to find out that indeed abortion is actually legal up until the very moment of birth for any reason and in all 50 states.

When many people are told this by pro-lifers some question whether it's really true or if we are over exaggerating what the law really allows because of our pro-life beliefs and trying to make abortion sound "worse" than it really is. I have had people tell me personally that they thought that late term abortions were still illegal. But the sad fact of the matter is as stated above abortions are completely and 100% legal anytime during a pregnancy in the U.S. from the time of conception until the very moment of birth and for any reason due to the way that the laws were written.

So I wanted to make this blog post to help show others briefly what the laws say and to show. As well as that is not just something that Pro-lifer's are making up to try and further our views on the matter. I'm offering just a short summary of the cases here. I won't go into all the legal wording and points of both cases due to time, however I will post links at the end of the post to where if you can find transcripts and the actual audio from both cases if you would like to learn more about them.

Almost everyone has heard of Roe v. Wade that legalized abortion in all 50 states in the U.S. in 1973, but many have never heard of and aren't even aware that it wasn't the only case that the Supreme Court ruled on in 1973 to legalize abortion. Roe v. Wade actually had a companion case called Doe v. Bolton whose decision in fact was handed down on the same day as Roe on January 22, 1973. The way that the cases were presented and ruled on made it to where Roe actually legalized abortion by ruling that a right to privacy under the >clause of the 14th Amendment extended to a woman's decision to have an abortion. But that right must be balanced against the state's two legitimate interests in regulating abortions: protecting prenatal life and protecting women's health. Arguing that these state interests became stronger over the course of a pregnancy, the Court resolved this by tying state regulation of abortion to the trimester of pregnancy. 

 The Court later rejected Roe's trimester framework, while affirming Roe's central holding that a person has a right to abortion until "viability" which they ruled to be "potentially able to live outside the mother's womb, albeit with artificial aid", adding that viability is usually placed at about seven months (28 weeks) but may occur earlier, even at 24 weeks. Now what Roe didn't legalize Doe came in and finished. Doe v. Bolton (again that was decided on the same day as Roe) removed the rest of the restrictions that Roe didn't legalize by it's broad definition of "health" in the life of the mother exception. In the court's opinion in Doe stated that a woman could obtain an abortion even after "viability" if necessary to protect her health. The key to this is their very broad definition of health which they defined as follows... 

"Whether, in the words of the Georgia statute, "an abortion is necessary" is a professional judgment that the Georgia physician will be called upon to make routinely. We agree with the District Court, 319 F. Supp., at 1058, that the medical judgment may be exercised in the light of all factors - physical, emotional, psychological, familial, and the woman's age - relevant to the well-being of the patient. All these factors may relate to health."

Wednesday is late term abortion day at Orlando Women’s Center (the clinic where I had my abortions 12 years ago). When I first started visiting the sidewalks of abortion clinics to pray and minister, I had no idea that late term abortions were even legal. I remember hearing about the Partial Birth Abortion Ban in 2007 and assumed (like most) that this stopped abortions late in a woman’s pregnancy.

Shock can’t even begin to describe my feeling when I first counseled on late term day. “These girls are so pregnant,” I kept thinking to myself. Of course that’s silly since there’s no such thing as being a “little pregnant”, but I couldn’t get over the size of their beautiful bellies so full of life. These women have felt their babies kick. Many of them even know the sex of the child and this is sometimes the reason for the abortion. These girls have carried these babies for six months. They are more than halfway done!

I just cried and cried. I couldn’t even speak at first. Not only is the size of their bellies overwhelming but the hardness of their hearts is just as shocking. I began to think about family members, friends, and co-workers of these girls who know they are pregnant. Is our society so lacking of accountability that they will return to their lives and no one will think this is a problem?

This past Wednesday my friend John posted a picture of a girl who arrived at OWC to abort her twin baby girls. She already had daughters and didn’t want anymore. She was about 20 weeks along, but because she was pregnant with twins, she had a big belly. Within a few hours, the picture went viral. I began to get phone calls and emails from friends who had no idea abortions like these happen. Many offered financial help and many offered to adopt her babies. Thousands of people all of over the world were praying that this girl would change her mind…and thousands were saying the picture was a hoax or that what she was doing was illegal.

I found myself repeating over and over again, “Abortion is legal in America up to the day you give birth.” In fact, in our nation’s capital, there are two doctors who “specialize” in abortions this late in pregnancy. One of those doctors has been working with a suspended license for several years. The Partial Birth Abortion Ban only stopped the use of that procedure late in a woman’s pregnancy. Now, as long as the baby is dismembered before removing him or her from the womb, it’s perfectly legal. Look up the laws in your state. Keep in mind that in any state that has exceptions for the health of the mother, this can mean that if a woman has bad heartburn that’s a threat to her health. A late term abortion starts around $2,000 and can go up to about $15,000 depending on how far along a woman is in her pregnancy.

I’ve been to the Holocaust Museum in Washington, DC. They have piles and piles of hair shaved off of Jews in the concentration camps. They have millions of pairs of shoes belonging to children who were killed simply because they were Jewish. The pictures of thousands of dead bodies piled on top of each other are shocking and appalling. At one point I decided I couldn’t look anymore. I was disgusted that this could happen without a revolution rising to overthrow a government that would accept murder as status quo.

I know it’s controversial to say this, but abortion truly is the holocaust of my generation. What if we had the bodies of 50,000,000 babies piled on top of each other in a museum somewhere? What if we took all of the clothes they will never wear and toys they will never play with and you had to pay to see them? If each of us had to watch a late term abortion, surely there would be a revolution, right? After the Holocaust ended, German civilians were taken to Buchenwald concentration camp to see the atrocities that happened there. Over and over they were heard saying, “We didn’t know.” Now, because of the internet and social media, we have no excuse for ignorance. The hands of America are covered with blood…perhaps her eyes and ears are covered as well.

The girl I mentioned earlier ended up aborting the twin girls in her womb even though we had every kind of help she would ever need ready for her. She admitted that she didn’t want girls and that she had no compassion for the babies she was carrying. Through a two day process, she actually had to go into labor and deliver her sweet babies into a toilet. Abortions like these happen all over the country every day. I hope that this girl’s picture made many so outraged that they are provoked to do something. When I spend hours on the Planned Parenthood sidewalk alone, I want to cry out “WHERE IS THE CHURCH?”

This article shocked me even though I knew that things like this do go on all the time but knowing it and reading about the details of it and seeing the picture makes it really hit home even more. This kind of story is playing out all over our country everyday. There countless free programs out there to help mothers with crisis pregnancies, as well as crisis pregnancy centers that offer life giving assistance to women and their children free of charge, there are positive solutions and options available to every woman. And every woman and child deserves better than abortion. There are so many loving people that are praying and waiting to adopt a baby who would love those children that others want to abort with all their hearts as their very own. But there are those out there who like this woman have bought into the lies that have been spread and poisoned so many women's and men's minds in the U.S. since the legalization of abortion, that abortion is a quick and easy fix to their problem.

That is why it is more vital than ever to try to get the truth out there and to stop being silent about this issue! It's time to stop worrying about about being politically correct and worrying if by telling the truth that can save women from so much pain and save so many lives we might hurt someone's feelings. We need to be thinking more about that while we remain silent and don't talk about abortion that close to four thousand more children will continue to be killed in the U.S. everyday and being silent and choosing to ignore the problem is not going to stop it. Make no mistake we will all answer for our actions one day whether we do good or whether we do evil and if we knew to do something good and don't we will answer for that too. This is truly a life or death issue and everyone is needed to help speak out and help to change people's minds and hearts by showing them in a lovingly way the truth about what abortion really is and does. Help pregnant women and their children by showing them that there are healthy and good alternatives that will help them and their babies to live happy lives and that abortion is not the answer. It only hurts the mother and kills the child. Don't be silent any longer you never know just how many lives you can truly change and how many lives you just might save by talking to others about abortion and helping them to see the truth.

There are other ways that each and every one of us can help fight abortion you can call and write your elected officials and tell them to ban abortion and to Defund Planned Parenthood from getting federal funding and using your tax dollars to pay for and further abortion. There are even several organizations that have already done most of this leg work for you and you can easily send these messages to your elected officials both locally and federally by filling out pre-made forms on these issues see these great tools at http://capwiz.com/sbalist/home/ and http://takeaction.aul.org/action/


Every life matters and every life can be touched and transformed by the actions of another. Please come back Thursday for a special post about another thing that many don't realize and maybe have never heard. I'm going to be posting about how both Roe v Wade and Doe v Bolton were both based upon lies, deceit, manipulation, and according to one of the plaintiffs fraud from start to finish. It's no surprise that the main stream media has tried to keep this under wraps for so long but its past time that the truth was known and that people really start to see just how corrupt and unjust these laws were and how they were equally and unjustly passed. 

I won't post the names of those that made the comments but here are a few of the the comments from where I posted this graphic...

And then there was this very lengthy one that quotes a lot of scriptures trying to make their pro-abortion stance and dehumanize the unborn baby. 

I am so tired of people pulling out the "don't judge" card if you are stating something that they don't want to hear regardless of it's the the truth or not. And this kind of apathy and political correctness and SILENCE from Christians is in large part why the world is in the mess that it is in today! And why abortion has continued! 

People take this one scripture  "Judge not, that you be not judged" Matthew 7:1 out of context not even bothering to read the rest of the scripture after it or look at anything else that Jesus and his apostles teach throughout the rest of the New Testament and try to keep people silent on anything and everything that they don't want to hear about or agree with. Saying that by speaking what we believe or stating the facts and truth that we are judging them and by doing so that we are sinning by trying to help and teach others.

So here is my answer to that post. 

I was not judging anyone by making this graphic. I've said it before I'll say it again this is a direct quote of Jesus in Matt. 18:10 from the KJV of the Bible. I am a sinner too and I am no one’s judge I never claimed to be. However since you brought up the topic I will address it because you have quoted quite a few scriptures here but you are taking many out of context and only using part of them to try to support your support of abortion. There are several fallacies to your arguments and they are your fallacies not the Bibles. People can not take scripture out of context and only in parts and try to make them say something that they did not. 

Jesus did indeed say...  "Judge not, that you be not judged" Matthew 7:1. 

However you aren't finishing out the scripture (as many people do in today's society) that wasn't all that Jesus said, he continued... 

Matthew 7:2-5 KJV

2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.

3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?

5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

Note that the verse goes on after the first verse to tell us how we should judge and the clear message is that we should judge fairly. Matt 7:1 has to be interpreted both in light of the context of the surrounding text as well as the whole of scripture. If read in its entirety - we can see that what Jesus was forbidding was unrighteous judgment, not all judging. 

Does this mean we are never to judge or try to help our fellow brothers and sisters learn differently if they are living or doing something that could hurt them or that is not according to God's word?

Certainly not, for Jesus also said: 

"Do not judge according to appearance, but judge with righteous judgment" John 7:24.

We are commanded to exercise righteous judgment. We are forbidden to judge when we are not qualified to do so. If we tell someone what the Bible says about something that they are doing that is wrong then it is not us judging them but God's word that judges them. Telling others what the Bible says and what Jesus teaches is not judging them its in fact doing exactly what Jesus commanded us to do...

Matthew 28:19-20 KJV

19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

That is not placing a stumbling block in front of our brothers and sisters it is teaching them Christ's word and his will as he commanded us to do!  That is removing the stumbling blocks from in front of them not putting more before them. 

Paul said in I Corinthians 1:10 "Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment." Judging is not a sin; judging is a characteristic of being a spiritual person! Satan has been lying to us, hoping that we will NOT judge others that we will be silent and let sin abound. Because he knows that the right kind of judgment pleases God and leads others from darkness to light and from death to life. Teaching people the truth is what a Christian is called to do. 

1 Corinthians 6:1-5 KJV

1 Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unjust, and not before the saints?

2 Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?

3 Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life?

4 If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church.

5 I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you? no, not one that shall be able to judge between his brethren?

Paul actually rebuked the Corinthians for NOT judging:  If judging is wrong, then Paul needs to confess and repent for misleading these Christians! He clearly told them to JUDGE PEOPLE.

And I won't go into at length all the other Scriptures that show that we are to use righteous judgement but here are several that you should read... 

Eph 4:11-19, John 4:1, Rev.2:1-3, Acts 20:28-31 and there are many more.

NOW to the scriptures that you referenced that you were trying to say support abortion...

The arguments that you are making in Exodus 21:22-25 and the others you have listed are all standard texts abortion advocates use trying to discredit the full humanity of the unborn. But these are false claims and not what the Bible teaches at all. Again these are taken out of context and a spin put on them that the Bible simply doesn't teach.

Exodus 21: 22-25 KJV...

22 If men strive, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart from her, and yet no mischief follow: he shall be surely punished, according as the woman's husband will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges determine.

23 And if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for life,

24 Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,

25 Burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.

But this argument that the baby's life isn't somehow as valuable as the mother's or that God doesn't esteem the child's life as much as anyone else's is false and is flawed on several counts.

First, assuming the pro-abortion interpretation of this passage is correct (i.e. that the unborn's death is treated differently than the mother's), it does not follow that the unborn are not fully human. And in the next few verses after these verses listed the Bible presents a situation where a master unintentionally kills his slave and escapes with no penalty at all (the lack of intent being proven by the interval between the blow and the death.). Yet few liberals would argue that Scripture considers the slave to be less than human. It might be argued that both the slave and the unborn child had a lesser social status in Hebrew society, but it cannot be demonstrated from this that a lesser social status meant that one was less than fully human or that that is the way that God saw them because in many other instances in the Bible we see that God does not think that any person is more valuable than another he is no respecter of persons as in a persons social standing, their age, race, etc.

 This single passage cannot be used to invalidate other Scriptures which confer full human status on the unborn. Passages such as Job 3:3,10-16, Psalm 139:13-16, Jeremiah 1:5, Galatians 1:15, etc. all treat the unborn as persons and their lives as sacred and precious in God's eyes. The abortion advocate must somehow reconcile his own interpretation of this passage with these other Scriptures which are clearly not supportive of his view.

Finally, the pro-abortion interpretation of this passage (that a person who kills an unborn child only incurs a fine and therefore the child's life isn't as important as or considered as valuable as the mothers) has come under heavy fire from many Biblical scholars. They usually use a translation of the Bible like the NIV which interprets that same scripture as...

Exodus 21:22-25 New International Version (NIV)

22 “If people are fighting and hit a pregnant woman and she gives birth prematurely[a] but there is no serious injury, the offender must be fined whatever the woman’s husband demands and the court allows.

23 But if there is serious injury, you are to take life for life,

24 eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, 

25 burn for burn, wound for wound, bruise for bruise.

There is a great deal of discussion about the phrase, "no serious injury." "No serious injury to whom?" asks theologian R.C. Sproul. Liberals, of course, argue that the phrase only applies to the mother. But only a few translations, such as the Jerusalem Bible, actually interpret the verse in this way. When read in the original Hebrew, the passage seems to suggest that both the mother and the child are covered by the lex talionis -- the law of retribution. The Hebrew term ason (harm/injury) is clearly indefinite in its reference, and the expression lah(to her), which would restrict the word "injury" only to the mother, is missing. Hence, the phrase, "no serious injury" seems to apply equally to both mother and child and if either is harmed the penalty is "life for life, tooth for tooth, hand for hand," etc. According to Hebrew scholar Dr. Gleason Archer, "There is no second class status attached to the fetus under this rule. The fetus is just as valuable as the mother." (Cited in J. Ankerberg and J. Weldon,When Does Life Begin, Wolgemuth & Hyatt, 1989 pp. 195-6. See also, Meredith Kline, "Lex Talionis & the Human Fetus," Simon Greenleaf Law Review 5 [1985-1986] pp.73-89.)

Genesis 2:7. the argument for "breath" (nephesh). The argument goes that the first man, Adam, became a living soul when God breathed into his nostrils the breath of life. So pro-abortion people like to try to claim that since the unborn don't "breathe" until birth, they are not fully human. This argument is completely absurd and false.

First, it is scientifically imprecise to say that the unborn do not 'breathe' until birth. From conception forward, the unborn child receives and transfers oxygen, though not through the lungs. What changes at birth is the mode of breathing: instead of receiving oxygen through the placenta, the child begins to breathe through its lungs. Hence, the argument can be made that birth does not mark the beginning of human respiration.

Second, if the ability to sustain oxygen through the lungs is what indeed makes one human, then all those dependent on ventilators and oxygen machines would have to be classed as non-human and according to pro-aborts could be killed too if this logic were true.

Finally, the analogy between Adam and the unborn child does not fit. The creation of Adam was a unique historical event in which God formed Adam from inanimate matter (dust) and then breathed into him the "breath of life." The unborn child is not created in the same manner that Adam was. The unborn child is a living entity from conception. Hence, the passage does nothing to discredit the humanity of the unborn.

The accounts of the creation of man and woman in Genesis (Genesis 1:26-31; 2:4-25) tell us this: "God created man in his image; in the divine image he created him; male and female he created them" (Genesis 1:27).

The image of God! This is what it means to be human being! We are not just a bunch of cells randomly thrown together by some impersonal or unseen forces. Rather, we really reflect an eternal God who knew us from before we were made, and purposely called us into being.

The unborn are children and alive and just as valuable as born children and adults are to God. God created them and knows the unborn personally. The Bible does not speak of the unborn child as an unthinking, unfeeling tissue mass, but as a person with whom God interacts.

Jeremiah 1:4-5

4 Then the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

5 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.

Psalm 139:13-16

13 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb.

14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.

15 My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.

16 Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.

Scripture gives identity to unborn human life. Psalm 139 - notice the spiritual relationship the psalmist has while in the womb "The psalmist surveys his life in four stages: Past, present, future, and before birth, and in all four refers to himself as 'I.' He who is writing as a full-grown man has the same personal identity as the fetus in his mother's womb." (John R.W. Stott)

Psalm 22:9-10

9 But thou art he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope when I was upon my mother's breasts.

10 I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother's belly.

These verses do not distinguish between "potential life" and "actual life" when referring to the pre-born. Genesis 16:11; Isaiah 46:3-4; Psalm 22:9-10 (Notice in Psalm 22:10. "From my mother's womb you have been my God.")

Jesus is spoken of in the womb. Matthew 1:20-21 (Note: The incarnation is the most compelling Christian apologetic for the sanctity of unborn human life. To argue that life does not begin at conception must lead one to assume that the human Christ was at one point a "potentially human" Christ. Those who say that life does not begin at conception are in direct opposition to the teachings of the Bible. 

Scripture uses the same language for the unborn as it does other children. Luke's gospel uses the word "baby" or "child" (Gr. brephos ) to describe John the Baptist prior to his birth. We are told in 1:41 and 1:44 that the "baby" (brephos) leapt in Elizabeth's womb. But one chapter later (2:12,16), the already born Christ child is also referred to as a "baby"(brephos ). Since brephos is commonly used to describe infants and older children (Luke 18:15, Acts 7:19, 1 Peter 2:2), Luke's use of the word for the pre-born John the Baptist is not without significance.

The Old Testament, meanwhile, uses variations of the word "child" or "children" for both the born and unborn, and in several instances applies personal language to the conceived embryo. Job said (3:3), "May the day perish on which I was born, and the night in which it was said, 'a male child is conceived."' [Hebrew word gebher [man child] is used here to describe Job at the point of conception. The word is often used for adult males, but is applied here to a conceived embryo.]  As Beckwith observes, "This passage connects the individual born with the individual conceived." Job is clearly using personal language to trace his humanity back beyond birth to the act of conception. 

And there are many more scriptures which show that both God and Jesus value all human life and that it is sacred, precious, and a gift from God himself. God and Jesus do not condone or approve of abortion which is the killing of an innocent human being. There are countless times that murder is condemned by both in the Bible. 

God’s own finger writes in stone the commandment "Thou shalt not kill" (Exodus 20:13, Deuteronomy 5:17) and Christ reaffirms it (Matthew 19:18 - notice that He mentions this commandment first). The Book of Revelation affirms that (unrepentant) murderers cannot enter the kingdom of heaven (Revelation 22:15). It's addressed in many other places as well but I won't go into that further these show sufficiently what their stance on life is. 

There is no verse in the Bible where God or Jesus condones or allows for abortion.
