Measles, mumps, rubella, polio, rabies, and chicken pox — no one wants their child to contract any of these diseases. Yet, the vaccines manufactured to protect your children from these specific diseases have either been produced with fetal cell lines or tested in a fetal cell line.
There is no doubt that abortion is one of the most controversial and emotional issues in this nation. It is an issue that has divided families, political parties, and even churches. Since the overturning of Roe v. Wade, both sides have gained control in different parts of the country.
During the birth of my fourth child, in the words of my doctor, my uterus “exploded.” After skillfully stitching me back together, my doctor suggested that I should not have any more children. But God had a different plan. Two years later, another healthy baby girl was born.
Did you know that there are over roughly 1,000,000 frozen embryos (babies) in the United States?
We didn’t either until a few years ago. A little background about our family.…we are Aaron and Jen and we’ve been married almost 25 years. Before hearing about embryo adoption, we had 6 biological children, two boys and four girls.
For infertile couples struggling to have children, in vitro fertilization (IVF) may seem to provide a means to fulfill their desire to have children. However, there are ethical issues Christians need to consider. According to Genetics and Society.org, “Since August 1991 more than 3.5 million human embryos, [innocent human babies], have been created. Of the embryos created, almost 840,000 were put into storage for future use, and more than 2000 were stored for donation. Almost 5,900 were set...
It’s estimated that nearly half of all pregnancies are unplanned. If the expectant girl or woman is not in a position to give the child the kind of life she wants for him or her, she needs to know that choosing adoption might be a path forward for her. She would have many choices about who the adoptive family would be and what level of communication and relationship she would have with them and her child.
We live in an era where misinformation and lies are rampant. There’s no better example than how abortion advocates incorrectly slander Pregnancy Resource Centers (PRCs). They vilify them, claiming they’re “fake clinics” that are “unethical.”
This is a good news/tragic news case. The incredible good news is that scientists have discovered—and photographed—that human life begins with a flash of light. Tragically, that reality will be used to destroy embryos that don’t shine as brightly. The flash occurs because when the sperm enters an egg it leads to a surge of calcium which triggers a release of zinc from the egg. As the zinc shoots out, it binds to small molecules which emit a fluorescence that can be picked up by camera...
My pastor used to say your brain is mush until 25, although in my case it went well beyond that. It was a humorous reference to the fact that children often make bad choices when left to their own devices and a reminder that they need Godly parental guidance (Proverbs 26.6). Unfortunately, there continue to be medical, public health and education professionals who tirelessly work to keep parents out of the picture when it comes to their children's sexual behavior. In Washington State, middle...
The Bible makes it absolutely clear when life begins. Even Princeton University has a website post entitled: “Life Begins at Fertilization.” Jeremiah 1:15 says: “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I have appointed you a prophet to the nations (NASB).” Some claim it begins at implantation, while others argue a child is not a child until it is “viable” outside the womb. And, there are those like Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards—the...
