  11. Bible makes no distinction between baby in womb or out 2 K.19:3, child comes to birth… Job 3:11, 16, miscarriage of infant Ps.139:13-16, activity of God; continuity from conception to birth Ec.11:5, works of God Jer.1:5, God knew him Lk.1:36, son; 41,44, unborn or newborn

  13. I. Symptoms of Sick Society II. Solution: Scriptural Facts of Life III. Society vs Scripture

  14. The problem On moral issues, most vote w/o thought of God / Bible “Most common reason for abortionis convenience” – C. Everett Koop • Secularism, Ezk.22:12; Ro.1:28 • Selfishness, Ro.1:31 (unloving)

  15. Illustrated in Egypt (Greece; Rome) Hilarion, probably laborer from Oxyrhynchos, had moved to Alexandria to find work . . . He was apparently living w. other friends from his hometown, who were returning to Oxyrhynchos. He sends a letter to his wife w. them (June 17, 1 B.C.) promising to send money as soon as he receives his pay. “If you are delivered , if there is a boy let it [live], but if a girl,cast it out.”

  16. The problemThe proof “Anyone who performs…abortion (for physical disease) is either ignorant of modern methods of treating the complications of pregnancy, or is unwilling to take time to use them”– Dr. R. J. Hefferman • “Sometimes mother’s life is in danger”

  17. The problemThe proof Less than 1% of abortions occur because of rape, incest, deformity, or threat to mother’s life • “Sometimes mother’s life is in danger” • “What about rape or incest?”

  18. The problemThe proof ▪Birth control that prevents concep-tion from occurring is not abortion. ▪If it causes miscarriage, it is parallel. • “Sometimes mother’s life is in danger” • “What about rape or incest?” • “Abortion is same as birth control”

  19. The problemThe proof If baby is simply part of woman’s body …why are 50% males? …why do blood types differ from mothers? …why unique genetic fingerprints? • “Sometimes mother’s life is in danger” • “What about rape or incest?” • “Same as birth control” • “It’s my body”

  20. The problemThe proof ▪What do laws legislate? Theft…? ▪Should there law against shooting abortion doctors? • “Sometimes mother’s life is in danger” • “What about rape or incest?” • “Same as birth control” • “It’ my body” • “Can’t legislate morality”

  21. The problemThe proofThe product Give parents a month to decide whether to keep baby or kill it– Peter Singer Where does it end?
