Abortion

When does God consider a Child alive?

When God considers a child alive.

"In the womb he took his brother by the heel..." Hosea 12:3

"Upon Thee I have been cast from my birth; Thou art my God from my mother's womb." Psalm 22:10

"And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth. For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother's womb." Luke 1:14-15

"Listen, O isles, unto me, and hearken, ye peoples, from far: the LORD hath called me from the womb, from the bowels of my mother hath He made mention of my name .... And now saith the LORD that formed me from the womb to be His servant, to bring Jacob back to Him, and that Israel be gathered unto Him--for I am honourable in the eyes of the LORD, and my God is become my strength..." Isaiah 49:1, 5

"And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost: And she spake out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb. Luke 1:41,42

"Moreover thou hast taken thy sons and thy daughters, whom thou hast borne unto me, and these hast thou sacrificed unto them to be devoured. Is this of thy whoredoms a small matter, That thou hast slain my children, and delivered them to cause them to pass through the fire for them?" Ezekiel 16:20,21

"And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying: Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee, and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee; I have appointed thee a prophet unto the nations." Jeremiah 1:4-5

"And the LORD said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger." Genesis 25:23

"And if men strive together, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart, and yet no harm follow, he shall be surely fined, according as the woman's husband shall lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges determine. But if any harm follow, then thou shalt give life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe." Exo 21:22-25

"Moreover thou hast taken thy sons and thy daughters, whom thou hast borne unto me, and these hast thou sacrificed unto them to be devoured. Is this of thy whoredoms a small matter, That thou hast slain my children, and delivered them to cause them to pass through the fire for them?" Ezekiel 16:20,21

"As thou knowest not what is the way of the wind, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child; even so thou knowest not the work of God who doeth all things." Ecclesiastes 11:5

God considers life, not only in the womb, but even before conception. God considers life precious.

Others sources that I found also said that less than 1 percent is due to incest or rape. Low numbers are also given for health of the mother and and fetal health.

High percentages are given for personal reasons. These are reasons other than health reasons or emotional such as rape or incest. Selfish reasons where no protection was used because they can always fix it later. Abortion under the guise of "freedom of choice" for women has become the birth control of the last three decades. And since it is legal for any reason, it has clouded moral reasoning and responsibilities to life. The first free choice women make is (1st) to ignore life situations; financial, marital status, loosing personal freedom or age. (2nd) to have unprotected sexual contact. (3rd) to take care of the consequences later. Their first choice should be to access the situation and to act accordingly, before the choice to terminate a life. Many a child has been killed because of a poor choice from the beginning.




Children are being sacrificed daily because they would conflict with the lifestyles of the mother. They are being sacrificed because people place their individual pleasures, ideas and lifestyles above all else and all others. To them they are their own gods manipulating situations to suit their own pleasure.

I am saddened that people allow their morals to move from the word of God toward a view set by worldly values. The world doesn't contain morality nor does it teach morals, morality comes only from the word of God.

1 John 3:1
Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.

Our opinions and views are not to be set by what the world sees as normal, but what God say's is normal. When we align with the world then the world knows us, when we align with God then the world knows us not.
