Abortion
Sproul, states that “No teaching in the Old Testament or New Testament explicitly condemns or condones abortion.” [1]. However, this does not mean the Bible is silent on the issue. The key to a biblical ethic or morality is to carefully weigh what the biblical text actually states.
An Old Testament Passage
- One passage that appears to at least be related to abortion is Exodus 21:22-24. How might this passage be interpreted?
A Biblical Principle
- What does Genesis 9:4-7 teach ?
- According Genesis 9:4-7, why does God have such a strong position on the taking of human life? How does this compare with
Genesis 1:26-27?
What Is Human?
- What do the following Old Testament passages say about life? Psalm 22:9-10, Jeremiah 1:5
- How can you respond to someone who states that a fetus is merely a parasite, or a blob of protoplasm, something like cancer, a foreign body growing within the mother?
- When does a fetus become a human?
The Selfishness of Abortion
- ↑ R.C. Sproul, How Should We Live in this Word, page 82
