Recently, the state of New York passed a bill allowing women the right to abort their babies up till actual birth. This is more evidence of the world acting out on the deception of the devil. There’s nothing more strange and saddening than seeing women rally together, holding signs, demanding the right to kill their own children. Women fight for the right to breastfeed in public. They protest when children are separated from their parents in the “war on immigration”. They fight in the courts to prosecute murders when there’s a homicide involving a pregnant mother. But when it comes to abortion, their agenda quietly disconnects itself from common sense. Here in Exodus chapter one, we see God’s take on killing babies. If you want to argue it’s not a human until it’s born, then why don’t you start eating your steaks and burgers raw. It’ll prove to you that it’s still the same piece of meat. The only difference is that cooked meat tastes better. Whether meat is rare, cooked medium-rare, medium-well, or well-done, it’s still meat. A child in the womb is still a human being, it just needs a little more time to “be better” suited for the real world. Dr Ben Carson, a world leading surgeon, who specialized in pre-natal surgeries said, “As a surgeon, I have operated on infants pre-birth. I can assure you that they are very much alive”. God honored the Egyptian mid-wives for not killing the babies. Why? Because He hates the shedding of innocent blood. The core issue with abortion is not about arguing if the baby is fully human, that’s just an excuse to fight over. The real issue about abortion is the mentality of “Don’t tell me what I can and can’t do with MY body”. The Biblically proven principle of original sin, “Don’t tell me what to do”, is the real issue (that no one is addressing). A woman’s nature is to nurture, not harm. It’s built into their DNA (God given). Every single human being on earth knows murder is wrong (especially when it involves someone they are close to), and they know abortion is just that, wrong. If they didn’t why would pro-abortion people fight so hard (often reverting to violent acts) to try to eliminate the guilt that comes every time a baby is aborted? Why would they tell women there’s nothing to be ashamed of? Why did Pharaoh’s daughter keep and adopt Moses, rather than kill him, like she was supposed to? The real problem is there is no solution, aside from God, for them to find. It’s only forgiveness from God that can cover a multitude of sins. And abortion is one of them. There is room at the cross for anyone who has had an abortion; you just have to come on God’s terms, not your own. If you’re not willing to believe this truth, there is no real hope and healing for you. How we view life, our respect for it, matters, more than you think.
15 Then Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, gave this order to the Hebrew midwives, Shiphrah and Puah: 16 “When you help the Hebrew women as they give birth, watch as they deliver. If the baby is a boy, kill him; if it is a girl, let her live.” 17 But because the midwives feared God, they refused to obey the king’s orders. They allowed the boys to live, too.18 So the king of Egypt called for the midwives. “Why have you done this?” he demanded. “Why have you allowed the boys to live?”19 “The Hebrew women are not like the Egyptian women,” the midwives replied. “They are more vigorous and have their babies so quickly that we cannot get there in time.”20 So God was good to the midwives, and the Israelites continued to multiply, growing more and more powerful. 21 And because the midwives feared God, He gave them families of their own.
Exodus 1:15-21
1 About this time, a man and woman from the tribe of Levi got married. 2 The woman became pregnant and gave birth to a son. She saw that he was a special baby and kept him hidden for three months. 3 But when she could no longer hide him, she got a basket made of papyrus reeds and waterproofed it with tar and pitch. She put the baby in the basket and laid it among the reeds along the bank of the Nile River. 4 The baby’s sister then stood at a distance, watching to see what would happen to him.5 Soon Pharaoh’s daughter came down to bathe in the river, and her attendants walked along the riverbank. When the princess saw the basket among the reeds, she sent her maid to get it for her. 6 When the princess opened it, she saw the baby. The little boy was crying, and she felt sorry for him. “This must be one of the Hebrew children,” she said.7 Then the baby’s sister approached the princess. “Should I go and find one of the Hebrew women to nurse the baby for you?” she asked.8 “Yes, do!” the princess replied. So the girl went and called the baby’s mother.9 “Take this baby and nurse him for me,” the princess told the baby’s mother. “I will pay you for your help.” So the woman took her baby home and nursed him.10 Later, when the boy was older, his mother brought him back to Pharaoh’s daughter, who adopted him as her own son. The princess named him Moses, for she explained, “I lifted him out of the water.”
