Abortion is a national disgrace. Tens of millions of unborn babies are murdered before they see the light of day. The procedures used to accomplish this abomination are cruel and exceedingly gruesome.
Why is this situation allowed to continue? The government adheres to power like one totally addicted to Heroin. They think that by giving women the convenience of not paying the penalty for sexual misconduct, they will gain votes and stay in power.
As I was thinking of the verse quoted in the picture, I remembered something about Bible interpretation; namely, that one should never just pick one verse to hang one’s understanding on.
The Bible also says...
Psalm 139 ( World English Bible )
1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. Yahweh, you have searched me, and you know me.
2 You know my sitting down and my rising up. You perceive my thoughts from afar.
3 You search out my path and my lying down, and are acquainted with all my ways.
4 For there is not a word on my tongue, but, behold, Yahweh, you know it altogether.
5 You hem me in behind and before. You laid your hand on me.
6 This knowledge is beyond me. It’s lofty. I can’t attain it.
7 Where could I go from your Spirit? Or where could I flee from your presence?
8 If I ascend up into heaven, you are there. If I make my bed in Sheol, behold, you are there!
9 If I take the wings of the dawn, and settle in the uttermost parts of the sea;
10 Even there your hand will lead me, and your right hand will hold me.
11 If I say, “Surely the darkness will overwhelm me; the light around me will be night;”
12 even the darkness doesn’t hide from you, but the night shines as the day. The darkness is like light to you.
13 For you formed my inmost being. You knit me together in my mother’s womb.
14 I will give thanks to you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful. My soul knows that very well.
15 My frame wasn’t hidden from you, when I was made in secret, woven together in the depths of the earth.
16 Your eyes saw my body. In your book they were all written, the days that were ordained for me, when as yet there were none of them.
Those who do not know God and do not want to know God, have hardened their heart towards HIM and exalted their wishes over those of the Almighty creator of the entire universe and in their minds have made themselves a god. The terrible truth is that the vast majority of them will never listen to what the Bible teaches, no matter how many verses you use or how correct and precise your logical presentation of God’s truth is. How sad!
The truth is that God directly made Adam and Eve and everyone else that has ever lived. Yes, there is the human reproductive act, but to believe that somehow God is independent of life in the womb is to invalidate the Psalmists passage above. God loves us and guides us, even from the very beginning of our creation. He knows us in totality and there is no escaping his presence. Oh, we can deny HIM, but we can not escape the eternal penalty for doing so.
Those who love God come to realize during a reflection on their life as a whole, that God has been there all the time. Dear friend, come to Jesus for rest, turn away from all forms of wickedness. Love and obey God’s will for your life and do your very best to please God in every way. God will never abandon you or forsake you, in this world or the next!
