Myth—Abortion Doesn’t Matter

“He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of

righteousness for His name’s sake.” Psalm 23:3 NKJV

He is leading you into paths of righteousness for His name’s sake! Therefore, always do what God wants you to do and remember that His view

is usually opposite of man’s view in this earthly life. What man thinks is right is often wrong with God. In the end, if you are obedient, everything will work out fine. Even if that end is your eternal heavenly reward. And remember what Jesus taught concerning our eternal end. We should always

Jesus said: “Do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul; rather fear Him who can destroy both soul and body in Hell.” Matthew 10:28 NRSV

“Now the end has come for you, and I will send My anger against you. I will judge you for the way you have lived, and I will make you pay for all your actions that I hate. I

will have no pity on you; I will not hold back punishment from you. Instead, I will make you pay for the way you have lived and for your actions that I hate. Then you will know that I am the Lord.” Ezekiel 7:3-4 NCV

When we engage in activities that God hates, we demonstrate a hatred for God and His ways. This is true whether or not we will recognize and acknowledge it as a spiritual fact. However, when seemingly bad or evil

things or events happen to an individual, it is not always so clear a bad thing. For every action, there is a reaction and often an unintended consequence
