The Bible supports the pro-life cause.

Now, it's true that the Bible doesn't actually condemn abortion. But it's a fallacy to claim that whatever the Bible doesn't expressly condemn, it condones. For example, the Bible never says we can't cut the brakes in someone's car or push them into a shark tank, yet those actions would still be wrong. Abortion was not condemned because Christians weren't aborting their children. Since the purpose of the letters in the Bible was to correct bad doctrine or behavior from believers, since no believers were aborting their children none of the New Testament authors needed to address it. So a Biblical case for the pro-lire position goes like this:1. All humans are made in God's image.2. God hates the shedding of innocent blood of humans made in God's image.3. Abortion is the shedding of innocent blood of a human made in God's image.4. Therefore, abortion is Biblically immoral. All humans are made in God's image. All humans are made in the image of God. [1] This does not mean physical image, since God is a spirit. [2] Rather, this means we are made in his likeness as rational, moral agents. The human is both a rational and a moral being. Without a moral nature there would be no true humanity, so those who would abolish the moral law would abolish humanity in the bargain. [3] As C. S. Lewis writes, "Either we are rational spirit obliged for ever to obey the absolute values of the Tao, or else we are mere nature to be kneaded and cut into new shapes for the pleasure masters who must, by hypothesis, have no motive but their own 'natural' impulses. Only the Tao provides a common human law of action which can over-arch rulers and ruled alike. A dogmatic belief in objective value is necessary to the very idea of a rule which is not tyranny or an obedience which is not slavery. " [4]All humans have an inherent capacity as rational, moral agents. This makes us valuable, as we bear (at all stages of human development) the image, that is likeness, of God. God hates the shedding of innocent blood of humans made in God's image. We are given a commandment, "You shall not murder. " (NASB) [5] Some translations say "kill," but the word is better rendered murder. This is because not all forms of killing were condemned in the Bible. God sanctioned some wars against unbelieving nations, and he even instituted capital punishment. But these were forms of divine judgment. The Jews (and by extension, the Christians) were forbidden from taking innocent lives. When God sent the Israelites to war, it was because of the idolatry or other sinful practices of another nation. When capital punishment was used, it was always because someone was guilty of a grievous sin. No one who fell under these forms of retribution were innocent, as the unborn are. The Israelites were told to be careful not to kill the innocent and the righteous. [6] If the innocent were ever killed, the blood of the innocent would be on their hands. [7]Abortion is the shedding of innocent blood of humans made in God's image. The unborn have done no wrong, especially not one deserving of death. Surely taking the life of an innocent unborn child, who still bears the likeness (image) of God based on their inherent nature as rational, moral agents, is heinous in the sight of God. If innocent unborn humans are killed, surely their blood are upon the hands of those who take their lives. In fact, the New Testament teaches that Jesus is God Himself (the second person of the Trinity), and Jesus Himself said, "Permit the children to come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. " [8] Children are specially loved by God, and special curse was placed over those who would lead the little ones astray. [9]I have supported each premise, therefore the conclusion logically follows. I look forward to Con's argument. [1] Genesis 1:26. [2] John 4:24. [3] Lewis, C. S. , The Abolition of Man, p. 77. [4] ibid. , pp. 84-85. Note that when C. S. Lewis speaks of the Tao, he is referring to an objective moral law. [5] Exodus 20:13, Deuteronomy 5:17. [6] Exodus 23:7. [7] Deuteronomy 19:10. [8] Luke 18:16. [9] Mark 9:42.
