Abortion is murder!

Did you know that approximately 46 million abortions happen each year around the world? That means about 120,000 abortions occur each and every day! This is an alarming rate and something must be done. God created each and every one of those babies. He breathed the breath of life into them. He has a purpose for every single one, and by killing him/her you are not allowing hi/’her to fulfill their purpose in this world.
Many mothers reason that abortion is okay because the baby is not yet human. They are called fetuses. But the Bible makes it clear that everyone of us is human before we are born. Job 31:15 says, “Did not He who made me in the womb make him, And the same one fashion us in the womb?” And Psalms 22:9-10 says “Yet Thou art He who didst bring me forth from the womb; Thou didst make me trust when upon my mother's breasts. Upon Thee I was cast from birth; Thou hast been my God from my mother's womb.” While yet another example is Psalms 139: 13-16, “For Thou didst form my inward parts; Thou didst weave me in my mother's womb. I will give thanks to Thee, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Wonderful are Thy works, And my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from Thee, When I was made in secret, And skillfully wrought in the depths of the earth. Thine eyes have seen my unformed substance; And in Thy book they were all written, The days that were ordained for me, When as yet there was not one of them.” As we can see, the Bible makes quite clear we are all humans before birth. And since killing a human is murder, abortion also is murder. But sadly, it’s legal in many countries and it happens way too much.
Something needs to be done about the alarming rate of unborn children being murdered. 46 million babies being aborted every year is 46 million too many. If you are thinking about aborting your child, think about it. Trust in God and look into the other options like adoption.

I agree with what you said about abortion. Since I was about 13 and figured out what it was I have been against it. I want to do more to tell people about how awful it is but just don't seem to know what to do.

I am not sure what I believe about abortion. I think if a woman was raped or she's going to get very sick over it then maybe she should have the right to an abortion. i don't attend chruch but I do believe in God or a higher power, does that make it wrong?

Anonymous- I know what you are saying. There are many things you can do to try and stop abortion. And one easy thing is by voting in a canidate who believes in pro-life. Or you can join a local petiton. Even the small things you do can make a difference.

Destiny- I believe it does still make it wrong. I can understand where you are comming from, but it is still a baby in the mother. Even if it is rape and the baby came out of the worst conditions, it is still a blessing. There are many other options like adoption.

I have looked at picture of babies in the womb, it is an awsome sight. I can't imagine ending a pregnancy for any reson.

I agree the unborn need to be protected. There are alot of people who will adopt children. There are several people at my church who have adopted we even have a support group for parents who foster/adopt children.
