While motherhood is normally the product of the woman's pregnancy, it is also practiced in unselfishly taking care of other children whether orphaned, abandoned or otherwise in need of mothering. But she will be saved through motherhood , provided women persevere in faith and love and holiness, with self-control. From the instant of conception the preborn are completely human and are worthy of full protection as is any born human being. Adults, according to their status in life, who knowingly fail to protect them will be subjects for the wrath of God. In God's sight the lives of the unborn are to be more valued as they have not yet had an opportunity to develop a direction of relationship with Him.
