I’m seeing many so called “Christians” that call themselves pro-choice making the argument that the state has no right to outlaw abortion. They are claiming that Christians that are Pro-Life are hypocrites because just making abortion illegal won’t stop abortions. They also claim that Pro-Life only want to control a woman body and choices will not producing any programs or initiatives to reduce the burden of unwanted pregnancies/children.
There are many responses to this warped logic and political stance. But for brevity let’s look at on biblical response.
There is a night and day difference between a government sanctioned and funded murder of the unborn verses a mother breaking the law to kill her unborn child.
God judges nation and individuals.
If a nation will not endorse the murder of the unborn, God’s wrath rest not on the nation but on the individual who commits the murder of the innocent.
Just like Hiller’s Germany killing the Jews by national law, verses in America a person murdering someone because they are Jewish. God judged Germany as a nation for the holocaust but American is not judged as a nation if an American committees murder of a Jew, because in America it is illegal to kill someone because of their race.
Psalms 106:38 (NIV)
[38] They shed innocent blood,
the blood of their sons and daughters,
whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan,
and the land was desecrated by their blood.
It all has to do with the State endorsement of murder.
Genesis 4:10-11 (NIV)
[10] The LORD said, “What have you done? Listen! Your brother’s blood cries out to me from the ground. [11] Now you are under a curse and driven from the ground, which opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand.
