  • Abortion, the intentional termination of a pregnancy, is opposed by virtually all conservatives and devout Christians. There are numerous references in the Bible to an unborn child in the womb as a unique person. Direct references to the life of the unborn child include Genesis 25:22; Psalm 51:5, 119:73 and 139:13-16; Jeremiah 1:5; Job 10:8-12 and 31:13-15; Ruth 1:11; Hosea 12:2-3; Matthew 1:18-20; Luke 1:39-44; John 1:14. Indirect references include Judges 13:3-5; Rom. 9:11; Gal. 1:15. Jesus even violated customary rules of the Sabbath in order to perform pro-life work on that day. Here are additional examples of specific pro-life references in the Bible: * Genesis 25:21-22 ("... and Rebekah his [Isaac's] wife conceived. And the children struggled together within her ....") * Job 10:8, 11 ("Your hands shaped me and made me." ... Did you not ... clothe me with skin and flesh and knit me together with bones and sinews?") * Psalms 139:13-16 ("For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, Your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.") * Jeremiah 1:5: ("Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.")
