Ezekiel 33, “Say to them, as I live, says the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked.” God says, “Even the wicked ones, I don't want them to die, but that the wicked turn from his way and live.” God is not interested in killing people. “Let’s see who I can kill today.” God wants all to live, and therefore, He wants them to come to the understanding that they need to turn away from their sins and live. He wants to give you life. He is the one that breathed life to the nostrils of man to begin with.
John 3:16, “God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten Son.” God had to kill His only Son, so whosoever believes in Him should not die, but have what? Eternal life. Life is what God wants you to have. In Genesis 9, look at how life matters. He says, “Surely for your lifeblood I will demand a reckoning from the hand of every beast, and from the hand of man, from the hand of every man’s brother, I will require the life of man. Whoever sheds man’s blood by man his blood shall be shed, for in the image of God He made man.” God made man in His image. He will not allow people to cheapen it, to call it a cluster of cells that you can kill in order to have a good lifestyle, in order not to worry about nine months of pregnancy, and then, food for the baby. God is saying, “I am the giver of life. I value life, and I am going to demand payback for every life that you take.”
The leading cause of death worldwide in 2024 was not cancer or heart disease, not crime or war. The leading cause of death in the world was abortion. While this statistic is alarming, it pales in comparison to what has taken place since 1970. Globally, 1.5 billion babies have been unmercifully murdered and dismembered in their mother’s womb.
Ezekiel 16:20-23
“Moreover you took your sons and your daughters, whom you bore to Me, and these you sacrificed to them to be devoured. Were your acts of harlotry a small matter, that you have slain My children and offered them up to them by causing them to pass through the fire? And in all your abominations and acts of harlotry you did not remember the days of your youth, when you were naked and bare, struggling in your blood. Then it was so, after all your wickedness—‘Woe, woe to you!’ says the Lord GOD.”
There is no other information we need in order to know how God feels about abortion and what our world has been doing to unborn children in these last 50 years and more. On top of the brutality of abortion is the ugly fact that this crime against children is defended as their mother’s right.
Isaiah 5:20
Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
Again we see woes attached to calling evil good and good evil, and this is exactly what the “pro-choice” position does. Woes are coming for all do so.
Jesus said in Matthew 24:12 that because of abounding lawlessness in the last days, the love of many would grow cold. The word translated as “cold” is the word used to describe a dead body. In other words, natural love and affection, like that of a mother for her unborn child, will die in the last days.
There are so many who claim that what’s inside a mother’s womb is simply a clump of cells or fetal tissue, but not a human child. One of the greatest proofs that this is not true, outside of an abundance scientific proof, is the fact that the first person to respond to the Christ child was a child inside of his mother’s womb.
Luke 1:41-43
And it happened, when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, that the babe leaped in her womb; and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit. Then she spoke out with a loud voice and said, “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb! But why is this granted to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?”
Inside of Elizabeth’s womb was John the Baptist. Inside Mary’s womb was the Holy One of Israel, Jesus the Christ, the Son of the living God, who came to take away the sins of the world.
Thankfully for those who have had an abortion in the past and have come to Christ, this, and all of their other sins, are completely forgiven and the woes of the tribulation do not await them. This is further proof of the depth of the love of God for the world, and that the blood of Jesus cleanses us from all sin and delivers us from the wrath to come!
Even so, come quickly Lord Jesus,
