(Sanctity Of Human Life Sunday)

“Conception, then is the act of God
whereby a person is created by God's sovereign will.
A soul is breathed into the living tissue by the Holy Spirit.
That soul's destiny is already known to God
and determined by Him
from before the foundation of the world.
Abortion then becomes a violent anti-God act.
It is not only a murder of the individual,
it is an affront to the Creator…
I believe abortion is the last official stand
of the defiant apostate against God.
It says, ‘God, you will not
determine who lives or dies – I will!’”
- John MacArthur

“Christ died that we might live.
This is the opposite of abortion.
Abortion kills that someone might live differently.”
- John Piper

“No human being…
is ever conceived outside God's will
or ever conceived apart from God's image.
Life is a gift from God
created in His own image.”
- John MacArthur
