Talking to a "Christian" who believes in abortion, is almost the toughest thing I have had to do recently. When I reference a Christian, I am referring to a Christian who follows the Bible and knows that God's word is the same yesterday, today, and forever, as is referenced in Hebrews 13:8.
God has not changed in the changing times, even though Christians are changing. Some Christians become part of social club, who go to church on Sunday, but act like every other worldly person the rest of the week. These people must know that God sees them and He is not happy with their behavior.
Until the Roe vs Wade being overturned in the Supreme Court, I had not thought about a Christian believing in abortion. The more I payed attention on social media, I was shocked at the things I was hearing and seeing. I saw t-shirts that said, "Christians for Abortion." That is saying that as a Christian, you believe in murder,
Then one day, a friend of mine, reached out to me. She decided to share a time with me she had an abortion as a teenager. She was a Christian at the time. She felt so ashamed, but she said the thing that she would be the most afraid of, is other Christians who would judge her and cast her away.
She then asked me if I hate her because of what she did? I told her I love her and we all sin. I didn't want to make excuses for her sin. I explained how in the Bible, God speaks about how He knows us before we are born. I said despite the sin she did, God will forgive her if she asked. I told her that I feel like one day she will be united with her baby in heaven.
I learned a valuable lesson. A lot of women who have had an abortion, must feel a huge amount of guilt and shame. We need to show love toward these women, and show them that not only God loves them, but their baby as well. It's time to start showing people the hope that only God can give.
