Quick takeaways

  • Abortion is the premeditated murder of unborn image-bearers of God, and no individual has the right to end the life of an unborn child regardless of the circumstances of conception.
  • Abortion stems from the worship of self, where individuals elevate their desires above the sanctity of life and reject God's sovereignty.

Deep dives

Abortion is the premeditated murder of unborn image-bearers of God

Abortion is nothing other than the premeditated murder of unborn image-bearers of God. Despite attempts to soften the language, abortion is the premeditated and intentional killing of an unborn human being. This act demonstrates the height of sinful pride and conceit, as it involves individuals pretending to be God by deciding who lives and dies based on personal desires and circumstances. God's word declares that every child is a gift from the Lord, and there is no asterisk or fine print to diminish the value of any child. The arrogance and selfishness that drives individuals to see unborn children as unwanted or defective is a terrible sin. No individual has the right to end the life of an unborn child, regardless of the circumstances of conception.
