Facts About Abortion | End Times

6:10 Prayer

8:20 THE APOSTASY AND ABORTION (Roe v. Wade)
2 Thessalations 2:3 (Phill) That day will not come before there arises a definite rejection of God

9:40 Note: To reject God is to reject His word by not believing in it and obeying it.

11:19 WHY IS THERE GOING TO BE A DEFINITE REJECTION OF GOD IN THE LAST DAYS?
Answer: People will be lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God.

11:40 2 Timothy 3:2-4 (ERV) 1 Remember this: There are some terrible (distress, great physical pain, suffering, sorrow, danger) times coming in the last days 2 People will love only themselves and money 4 Instead of loving God, they will love pleasure.

13:41 INSIGHT: Only two groups of people in God’s sight.
14:01 1) LOVERS OF PLEASURE: (philedones) lovers of lust, lovers of sexual & sensual desires, pornography, lovers of the flesh and world.

15:32 2) LOVERS OF GOD: (philotheos) worshipers of God, devoted to God, obedient to God’s commands, friends of God, pleasers of God. (It is only our love for God that causes us to say no to the sensual desires of our flesh so that we can obey God.)

16:31 John 14:15 (NLT) If you love me, obey my commandments.

TWO ATTRIBUTES OF A SOCIETY THAT LOVES PLEASURE RATHER THAN LOVES GOD?

17:47 ATTRIBUTE #1 A SEXUALLY UNRESTRAINED SOCIETY.
A. IT IS GOD’S WILL THAT WE PRACTICE SEXUAL RESTRAINT AS BELIEVERS.

18:59 1 Thessalonians 4:3-5 (NLT) 3 God’s will is for you to be holy, so stay away from all sexual sin 4 Then each of you will control his own body & live in holiness and honor 5 not in lustful passion like the pagans who do not know God & his ways.

22:37 B. THE SEXUAL REVOLUTION HAS LED US TO A SEXUALLY UNRESTRAINED SOCIETY.

Sexual Revolution: (60-70s) The sexual revolution, also known as a time of sexual liberation, was a social movement that challenged traditional codes of behavior related to sexuality & interpersonal relationships throughout the United States and the developed world from the 1960s to the 1970s. Sexual liberation included increased acceptance of sex outside of traditional heterosexual, monogamous relationships (primarily marriage). The normalization of contraception & the pill, public nudity, pornography, premarital sex, homosexuality, masturbation, alternative forms of sexuality, and the legalization of abortion all followed.

26:24 ATTRIBUTE #2- UNWANTED PREGNANCIES AND ABORTION.

29:20 THE BIG QUESTION: IS ABORTION MURDER?
1) IT IS NOT MURDER IF IT IS JUST THE REMOVAL OF A CLUMP OF CELLS THAT HAS NO SOUL.
2) IT IS NOT MURDER IF THERE IS NOT ANOTHER BODY.

30:40 Question: Why is it considered double homicide if a pregnant woman is murdered. Because the law recognizes that the unborn does have a life and deserves to live.

30:52 Faulty logic: It is a growing baby if I want it and it is not a baby with a life if I don’t want it.

31:27 WHAT CHRISTIANS BELIEVE ABOUT LIFE?
1) CHRISTIAN BELIEVE THAT ALL PEOPLE HAVE INHERENT DIGNITY & IMMEASURABLE VALUE.

31:51 Matthew 10:30-31 You, beloved, are worth so much more than a whole flock of sparrows. God knows everything about you, even the number of hairs on your head. So do not fear.

32:22 2) WE BELIEVE THAT THE VALUE OF A LIFE IS NOT DETERMINED BY IT’S USEFULNESS OR STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT.

3) CHRISTIANS BELIEVE THAT GOD IS THE CREATOR & GIVER OF ALL LIFE.

33:35 Job 33:4 (NLT) For the Spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life.

WHAT DOES SCIENCE SAY ABOUT WHEN LIFE BEGINS?

34:20 Note: We can not ignore what science has discovered about when life begins. We can not leave up to a woman or society to determine the beginning of life. There are irrefutable facts, about which there is no dispute in the scientific community.

1) THERE IS PROOF OF LIFE AT CONCEPTION/ZYGOTE.

35:33 Question: Is a Zygote human? Is it alive? Is it just a cell or is it an actual organism, a “being?”

37:24 John 8:12 (NKJV) Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.”

38:30 2) PROOF OF HUMANITY IN EARLY STAGES OF DEVELOPMENT.

From as early as 12 weeks & certainly by 20 weeks an unborn child can feel pain.

Note: Human beings develop at an astonishingly rapid pace. Giving a quick recitation of the child’s development will weaken the “not a person yet” mentality.

WHAT DOES BIBLE SAY ABOUT WHEN LIFE BEGINS AND ABORTION?

40:42 1) THE MIRACLE OF A CHILD BEING CONCEIVED & THE PROCESS OF DEVELOPMENT IS A WORK OF GOD.

41:10 Job 31:15 (CSB) Did not the one who made “me in the womb” also make “them”? Did not the same God form “us” both in the womb?

41:44 A. GOD ACKNOWLEDGES AS A PERSON WITH A PURPOSE WHILE WE ARE FORMLESS.
Psalm 139:16 (CSB) Your eyes saw me when I was formless; all my days were written in your book and planned before a single one of them began.

42:28 2) EVEN BEFORE CONCEPTION GOD IDENTIFIES US A HUMAN MALE OR FEMALE WITH A PURPOSE.
