Many people these days support abortion rights. Most conservatives believe that abortion is a modern concept that God hates. However, there existed abortions in the biblical context, and they were banned. Some women did drink abortifacient herbs in the Early Church, and they were excommunicated from the church for murder.
The Bible states in Revelation 21:8 KJV:
But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
The Greek root word translated "murder" is φονος (Latin: phonos) and refers to any death apart from natural death. One form of unnatural death prohibited then was abortion. The Old Testament is silent on abortion only because abortifacient herbs were not native to Ancient Israel, and when people intended to smuggle them in, they were stopped at the border. Most abortions in the Early Church were due to incest or else were performed on a woman who was cold on the nurturing. Even in the case of rape, incest, or life of the mother, abortion was seen as murder in the Early Church. The Greek root word denoting intoxicants is μεθυσος (Latin: methusos) and refers here to abortifacient herbs.
Most women who support abortions don't know what constitutes an abortion. An abortion consists of a medically induced miscarriage. In most all cases, women are traumatized themselves when they get an abortion. Women who defend abortion after getting one have a low nurturant drive. Most pro-abortion women only support abortions for other women, and not themselves. Abortion in and of itself is a rare procedure, so why not just get rid of it entirely?
I oppose abortions even in the case of rape, incest, or life of the mother. A rape victim can easily see her baby as her baby and not the rapist's baby. Even in the case of incest, the child should always be welcomed into this world. Even in the case of life of the mother, the father can simply raise the baby on his own. Most men are capable of nurturing, as men have nipples for a reason - they can lactate if they want to. Most men simply feel too insecure to nurture a child.
I also support paid parental leave for parents, as well as a safety net in and of itself. In the Early Church, no man went hungry/ Whenever a man fell into poverty, he was given free money so that he could eat. 1 Corinthians 16:2 sets up the framework for a safety net for all people. All Christian parishioners then paid a tithing on the first day of the week, and that money went to the poor in the parish who could not afford food on their own. Christ Himself also endorsed a safety net. See Matt. 25:31-46.
The depraved and entitled parents who murder their children in the womb, and all who aid and abet, will not inherit the Kingdom of God! Let them descend into the abyss which is the ever-burning Hell of fire and torment! Repent!
