Abortion is Not a Political Issue - Ep 243

Wouldn’t it be interesting to see a museum in our country to memorialize the atrocities we have committed on the unborn.  We have museums to remind us of our terrible allowance and support for slavery, we have museums to remind us of the tragedy of the holocaust.  The museums are not for celebration but rather for the strong reminder that we should never forget lest we risk repeating evils that we’re capable of. 

The Unborn Child is a Person.
Psalm 139:13-16: "For You formed my inward parts; You wove me in the womb. I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Marvelous are Your works; and that my soul knows very well. My frame was not hidden from You, when I was made in secret, and intricately woven in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed substance; and in Your book were all written, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them."   

It is important to remember that those who have had abortions are not alone. God offers forgiveness and healing to all who turn to Him. We should extend compassion and love to those who have made difficult choices, while also upholding the sanctity of life. Let us work together to create a culture that values and protects all human life, from conception to natural death.

The Desire for Convenience
While the reasons for abortion are complex and multifaceted, one common factor is the desire for convenience. Some individuals may choose abortion because they believe that having a child would disrupt their plans, careers, or lifestyles.  

It is important to recognize that the desire for convenience does not justify the termination of a human life. Each unborn child is a unique and precious individual, created in the image of God. To treat them as mere inconveniences is to devalue their inherent worth.   
The Sacrifice of a Child
While the concept of abortion is often framed as a woman's right to choose, it is important to consider the profound implications for the unborn child. In essence, abortion involves the sacrifice of an innocent human life for the benefit of the adult.
This sacrificial dynamic stands in stark contrast to the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Jesus willingly laid down His life for the salvation of humanity. His sacrifice was not a means of self-preservation or convenience, but rather a selfless act of love and obedience to His Father.
In contrast, abortion often reflects a desire for convenience or a belief that one's own life or circumstances take precedence over the life of an unborn child. While the challenges faced by pregnant women are real and should be addressed with compassion, they do not justify the termination of an innocent life.

Men are not to be let off the hook of responsibility in the abortion conversation.  Just as a woman may desire to relieve herself of the perceived burden of raising a child, the men have in many cases, completed jumped ship.  They had their fun in the bedroom but want nothing to do with the sharing of the responsibility.  Thus, leaving the woman in a sad and desperate state of needing to figure things out on her own. 

As a culture it is time to change the conversation of the value of life.  All life is valuable and should never be disregarded as an inconvenience.
