Does anyone know any specific verses from the Bible where life in the womb is mentioned?

Question

I am writing an essay about pro-life vs. pro-choice and I am looking for examples from the Bible.

Answer 1

Luke 1:44 - For behold when the voice of your greeting reached my ears the child in my womb leapt for joy.



Jeremiah 1:5 - Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you.



Psalm 139:13-16 - For thou didst form my inward parts, thou didst knit me together in my mother's womb .... In thy book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there were none of them.



These passages clearly show that the unborn are precious to God even before birth.

Answer 2

For you were made in my image. Genesis 1:27

In me you live and move and have your being. Acts 17:28

For you are my offspring. Acts 17:28

I knew you even before you were conceived. Jeremiah 1:4-5

I chose you when I planned creation. Ephesians 1:11-12

You were not a mistake, for all your days are written in my book. Psalm

139:15-16

I determined the exact time of your birth and where you would live.

Acts 17:26

You are fearfully and wonderfully made. Psalm 139:14

I knit you together in your mother's womb. Psalm 139:13

And brought you forth on the day you were born. Psalm 71:6

And it is my desire to lavish my love on you. 1 John 3:1

Simply because you are my child and I am your Father. 1 John 3:1

My plan for your future has always been filled with hope. Jeremiah

29:11

Because I love you with an everlasting love. Jeremiah 31:3

Thou shall not kill. Exodus 20:13

Answer 3

Gen 25:23,24,29

;31,30:2,22, 38:27,49:25 Ex 1:3,2 Nu 8:16, 12:12, Dt 7:13. Jdg 13:5, 7, 16, 17 Ru 1:11, ISa 1:5,6 Job 1:21, 3:10,11, 10:18,19,24:20,31:15,18 these are just a few, hope it helps

Answer 4

Genesis 25:22 And the sons within her began to struggle with each other, so that she said: “If this is the way it is, just why am I alive?” With that she went to inquire of Jehovah. 23 And Jehovah proceeded to say to her: “Two nations are in your belly, and two national groups will be separated from your inward parts; and the one national group will be stronger than the other national group, and the older will serve the younger.”



Psalms 139:13 For you yourself produced my kidneys;

You kept me screened off in the belly of my mother.



14 I shall laud you because in a fear-inspiring way I am wonderfully made.

Your works are wonderful,

As my soul is very well aware.



15 My bones were not hidden from you

When I was made in secret,

When I was woven in the lowest parts of the earth.



16 Your eyes saw even the embryo of me,

And in your book all its parts were down in writing,

As regards the days when they were formed

And there was not yet one among them.



Jeremiah 1:4 And the word of Jehovah began to occur to me, saying: 5 “Before I was forming you in the belly I knew you, and before you proceeded to come forth from the womb I sanctified you. Prophet to the nations I made you.”

Answer 5

Exodus 21:22 If men strive, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart from her, and yet no mischief follow: he shall be surely punished, according as the woman's husband will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges determine.



Notice that the Bible did not refer to the unborn baby as a fetus but a child. Man and doctors call it a fetus to justify killing it through abortion.

Answer 6

Luke Ch.1 v.39-41 - Mary visited Elizabeth and the baby leaped in her womb. (summary)



Jeremiah Ch.1, v.4,5 - Before I formed you in the belly I knew you, and before you came forth out of the womb I sanctified you and I ordained you a prophet to the nations.

Answer 7

"And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost."

Luke 1:41



Job 3:16: "Or as an hidden untimely birth I had not been; as infants which never saw light." Did you see that? Job referred to unborn children as INFANTS. In God's eyes, an unborn child is a living human baby. God never says once that an unborn child is anything less than a human being.



David said in Psalm 51:5, "Behold, I was shapen in iniquity, and in sin did my mother conceive me." He did not say that a fetus was shapen in iniquity and conceived in iniquity. David, speaking under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, said that HE was conceived. David, not a blob of tissue, was conceived



"For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb. I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them."

Psals 139:13-16 KJV



Who was in the womb? David! A literal and living person. The Bible never uses anything less than human terms to describe the unborn.



Notice that in Jeremiah 1:5 we are told that God KNEW Jeremiah:"Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations."



To further confirm the fact that God views the unborn child as a person, please consider Exodus 21:22-23:



"If men strive, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart from her, and yet no mischief follow: he shall be surely punished, according as the woman's husband will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges determine. And if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for life,"



If the woman has a premature birth and the child lives ("no mischief follows"), then there's no death penalty. However, if the child dies (or the woman dies) God says the death penalty applies: "thou shalt give life for life." Why would God require the death penalty if He didn't consider the unborn child to be a human being?



Proverbs 6:16-17 says that God HATES those who shed innocent blood! Deuteronomy 27:25 says, "Cursed be he that taketh reward to slay an innocent person. And all the people shall say, Amen."



In Matthew 7:12, the Lord Jesus Christ said, "Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets."



I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear before him." (Ecc. 3:14)

God is eternal, so His work is also eternal. Abortion is an attempt to do away with unwanted people--an attempt to make a liar out of God by bringing an end to His work. However, Jesus said you can destroy a person's BODY, but not their SOUL (Mat. 10:28). Parent, if you've had an abortion, your aborted child is in Heaven right now, because you only destroyed the body!



If God allows a child to be conceived, then God obviously has a plan for that child. Mary's parents didn't know that she'd give birth to the Savior of the world, but she did. God has a plan for unborn children (Jer. 1:5; Lk. 1:13-17; Gen. 4:25; Jud. 13:3-5), so to abort an unborn child is to stop a plan of God.



Abortion Shows A Lack of Natural Affection



Paul tells us in 2 Timothy 3:3 that the last days will be characterized by people who lack "natural affection."



I believe the pro-abortion movement is a perfect example of this. It is NATURAL to conceive a child, grow to love that child, take care of the child during pregnancy, give birth to the child, and then raise the child with the best care possible. That's the natural process that God has ordained. It is NOT natural to kill the child! To commit such an act is to show a lack of natural affection, which is sin.



Abortion Encourages Sin



"Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil." (Ecc. 8:11)



Why will 1,500,000 women have abortions this year? Largely because it has become popular. It is no longer illegal, and it is no longer considered a shameful sin by our society. Every time a woman has an abortion she helps society to become more comfortable with it. She's advertising it! By her example, she's encouraging others to commit the same sin, and other sins as well. The convenience of abortion will only lead to an increase of other sins such as adultery and fornication. Friend, abortion is wrong because abortion encourages sin!





Abortion Shows A Lack of Faith



Romans 14:23 says, "...for whatsoever is not of faith is sin." Hebrews 11:6 tells us that without faith it is IMPOSSIBLE to please God.



To have an abortion is to take matters into your own hands, rather than to trust God to work things out. This shows a lack of faith in God, which the Bible labels as SIN.



A desperate woman says, "I can't afford to have a child. I'm not ready for this." Lady, you need to start trusting God and claiming His promises. You need to STOP trying to run your own life for a change and START trusting God. You don't need an abortion, for such will only INCREASE your troubles. The devil has you thinking that abortion is the answer, that it will take care of everything, and you're very close to giving in to his subtle temptation. If you do, you'll regret it forever, and God will hold you accountable! Why not turn your life over to the Lord Jesus Christ right now? Why not make Him the Lord of your life and trust Him to work things out for you?

Answer 8

Not sure but consider this: Jews permit abortions based on their interpretation of the Bible (OT).

Answer 11

NOT REALLY... THE BIBLE WRITERS WERE FAR MORE SOPHISTICATED THAN THAT!!!



The Bible writers created the story of an awesome God for Israel that is worshipped by Christians mainly in America. This God forced his “chosen” people to eat their own children for dinner NOT AS A PUNISHMENT, but as an option in time of famine. Not even as an option, but as the “WILL OF GOD!” God NEVER objected about anybody slaughtering and cooking children for dinner. God won’t let the Jews eat pigs, but children YES!



I dropped out of Christianity and religion after many years serving in the Christian ministry! I couldn’t possibly stomach the uncivilized Bible tales any more! The Bible was written to control religious people. Any religion back then was as savage as you can’t possibly imagine. The Bible is a hangover from those days... America became ONE NATION UNDER GOD and IN GOD WE TRUST under Christian pressure only after the collapse of the US gold monetary standard!



This Bible God is totally powerless to teach the Jews any lesson without FORCING them to eat their own children for dinner. The Bible writers say that Israel was a “Land Flowing with Milk and Honey” ONLY before Israel invaded Palestine where the former dwellers used to live in plenty! After the Israel invasion the milk and honey suddenly stopped flowing! Now the Bible writers are promising Israel that “the desert shall blossom like a rose!” The perennial carrot at the end of the stick!



This primitive Bible God’s sadistic pleasures are the kinkiest ones ever to be invented in human history...! No atheistic dictator in the world EVER thought of forcing his people to eat their own children for dinner...! This is so repulsive that no smut publication is putting out anything like that, either, but you can enjoy reading all about it in God’s Holy Word, the Bible! Most Christians are brainwashed to believe that the DEVIL is seeding this story in their Bibles to confuse them and to test their faith!



Ironically, Christians are banning ALL ABORTIONS so there will be more children for dinner! Spiritually speaking, of course…!



Leviticus 26:29 - (God is impatiently saying) YOU WILL eat the flesh of your sons and the flesh of your daughters* (*without warning of any evil! Low IQ Christians know that no matter how pervert it may sound “if God says it I believe it… and that settles it!”)



Deuteronomy 28:53-57 - Because of the suffering that your enemy will inflict on you during the siege* (*that would take place 700 years into the future! In our society anybody knowing of a crime to be committed and not doing anything about it is put in jail for complicity!), YOU WILL EAT THE FRUIT OF THE WOMB, THE FLESH OF THE SONS AND DAUGHTERS the LORD your god has given you* (*GOD WILL NOT DO ANYTHING to protect the innocent children, but his chosen people will enjoy eating them…! God is so good!!!) Even the most gentle and sensitive man* (*not a sinful homosexual or a Godless atheist, but a CHOSEN CHILD OF GOD!) among you will have no compassion on his own brother or the wife he loves or his SURVIVING children, and he will not give to one of them any of the flesh of his children that he is eating…* (*not sharing is “THE SIN”!!!)



Jeremiah 19:9 I* (*God, NOT SATAN, but GOD!) WILL MAKE THEM EAT THE FLESH OF THEIR SONS AND DAUGHTERS* (God has to force them do it in the Bible tales! In reality, during the Roman siege of Masada [cir. 35 AD] all the Jews committed suicide before they even thought of eating their own children!)



The Bible God won’t force the Jews to eat any PIG, but their own children YES! The heck with any God protection plan for your children when you became a Christian! The Bible writers say that when the 666 will be instituted Christians won’t be able to buy or sell food without it. Based on Bible precedent, will they eat their own children for dinner? The anti Semitic oriented Clergy is schooled to ignore and deny that God forced anybody to eat innocent children and that the Jews did it only because they were despicable sinners!



Ezekiel 5:10 - Therefore in your midst fathers WILL EAT THEIR CHILDREN...



Christians are told that “God so loved the World!” in spite of the fact that GOD NEVER SPOKE A WORD AGAINST EATING CHILDREN…! It took Moses 2 men to carry a single bunch of gigantic size grapes to show Israel how plentiful was the Heathen Land that they were going to invade (Num 13:23)! Was it God tricking the Jews to leave Egypt! BTW, there is no historical evidence whatsoever that the Jews were ever slaves in Egypt! So the Jews can eat their own children in the Promised Land for God’s kinky pleasure! Actually, for the pleasure of wanking Bible writers and their avid readers!



Lamentations 4:10 - With their own hands COMPASSIONATE WOMEN* (*GODLY WOMEN…! Not lesbians or atheistic ladies, but “MANY” God loving heterosexual Jewish women) HAVE COOKED THEIR OWN CHILDREN...! (Not in some isolated cases in a moment of rage, but with some planning, recipes, and so on!)



These are not the only few cases of FACTUAL eating of children in the Bible stories!!! Here is an episode in FULL EXPLICIT CONTEXT that is IMPOSSIBLE for the Clergy to explain away…



2 Kings 6:26-29 As the king of Israel was passing by on the wall, a woman cried to him, “Help me, my lord the king* (*a God related King)!” The king replied, “If the Lord does not help you, where can I get help for you? Then he asked her, “What's the matter?” She answered, “This woman said to me, ‘Give up your son so we may eat him today, and tomorrow we'll eat my son.’ So we cooked my son and ate him* (*BTW… it came out delicious!!!). The next day I said to her, ‘Give up your son so we may eat him, but she had hidden him!



Not sharing is THE SIN! They were all COMPASSIONATE Godly, non-Atheistic, heterosexual Jewish women that HAVE SLAUGHTERED AND COOKED THEIR OWN CHILDREN FOR DINNER... at the tune of “The LORD is my Shepherd I shall not want…” (Psalm 23) The OT Bible writers are still deceiving Christians TODAY with the “God is LOVE” bit…



Isaiah 49:15 “Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I* (*God) WILL NOT FORGET YOU!* (*Open for interpretation)



Eating your children is one of the themes of the Bible along with having the ONLY begotten child of God crucified! The clergy is still marketing Christianity in our advanced society, but only after YEARS OF CHRISTIAN BIBLE SCHOOLING. They are totally mute about eating your own children for dinner!



The Bible writers are delighted to tell everybody that Jesus was whipped, beaten, thoroughly marinated in Roman spit, and nailed to a Holy Cross as a “spotless Lamb of God” so the Christian can snack his ROMAN SPIT FLAVORED MEAT AND DRINK HIS HOLY BLOOD to make it to Heaven! (John 6:53) The idea of eating one’s own children is part of the BIBLE story so the forever snacking on Jesus in the Holy Communion is not half that bad…! The Bible also promotes the killing of children to get rid of any future enemy!



Psalm 137:8-9 - O Daughter of Babylon, doomed to destruction, happy is he who repays you for what you have done to us- he who seizes your infants and DASHES them against the rocks.



The Holy Bible writers say that our enemies ought to be killed in their infancy when it is easier to get rid of them (Amen?) So abortion is not remotely that bad. In fact, IT IS VERY HUMANE! Notice HUMANE vs GODLY. GODLY requires that the fetus be born into a child before he/she can be dashed to pieces against the rocks as an infant, or eaten for dinner!



Isaiah 13:16 (KJV) Their little ones also will be DASHED TO PIECES before their eyes; Their houses will be plundered And their wives ravished…. (How many sexually starved women would wish to be ravished? But the children must be DASHED TO PIECES – not aborted!)



God the Son Jesus Christ is hardly any better than his own Daddy God up in the sky!



Revelation 2:23 (In his apocalyptic “revelation” Jesus Christ says) I WILL STRIKE HER CHILDREN DEAD* (*No abortionist can beat Jesus at killing babies… AMEN? Jesus is the one killing the children in the wrong Churches so he can teach everybody a lesson on WHO IS THE BOSS while preachers get rich selling books about Jesus’ love for the little children. In our society today Jesus Christ would be in jail for bullying about killing any child to favor a particular religion!) Then ALL THE CHURCHES WILL KNOW that I am he who searches hearts and minds, and I will repay each of you according to your deeds.* (*I’m the BOSS says Jesus! Unlike the Mafia and to the delight of Christianity, Jesus goes public talking like that!)



Christians don’t know how to deal with plain FACTS either from science or from their own Bible that they hardly read! They still want to rule the world by this Bible God notion!



Romans 15:4 (Saint Paul says) For EVERYTHING that was written in the past* (*Old Testament) was written to teach us* (*Christians!)



Even so, over the centuries Christians believe that NOT EVERYTHING written in the Bible is for them, so they are totally ignorant and refuse to accept all of the above! Christianity is one of the most DISHONEST religions in the world! The original Jewish “sacred books” were used by some Greek Jews to develop Christianity! Soon the Clergy will pressure Obama to preserve the Christian status quo on abortion, same sex marriage and so on or else he won’t be re-elected! Hopefully Obama would know how to keep religion out of politics!
