The issue and sin with abortion

Hi, I am Pastor Braden and I am with Reformed Ex -Mormon and I hope you're having a blessed.

Day today.

I'm making this video first and foremost to God's glory and to His glory alone.

And also I'm making this video to enter a competition for a new video camera to bless my

church, my ministry, as well as evangelism opportunities.

Today we're going to be discussing the issue and sin with abortion.

So what is the issue?

The issue is ultimately that it is not your body when one gets an abortion and kills their.

Own baby.

The sin is that it violates God's own law.

As a pastor, evangelist, and a Christian, I find myself oftentimes outside my local planned

parenthood in the city where I live.

And outside that planned parenthood, I plead with women as they walk in.

And as pleading with the women, I find myself in the conversations

discussing their circumstances.

They might say that their circumstances are not like the typical, normal husband and wife

relationship.

They might give circumstances such as that they don't have any money, or there's

rape, or incest, or that they've been abandoned.

But ultimately it always falls on this argument.

It's my body and it's my choice.

But as drawing these pictures, I notice myself always having to

draw a baby inside the woman.

This is because a baby is a separate body than your own.

It's his or her own body inside the woman.

My argument is this, that all life matters and is created in the image of God, and therefore is precious, no

matter the circumstance.

You see, there is a commandment that says, thou shalt not kill.

And that is what abortion is.

So you might ask the question, what if I've already had an abortion?

This is the cold, honest truth.

You are a murderer.

You see, in Revelation 21, 8, it says this, that murderers, along with others, will be

consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur.

This is because God is just and holds all accountable before him.

Well, this is the good news.

Colossians 2, 13 -14 says that when you were dead in your transgressions, He made you alive together

with Him, having forgiven us all our transgressions.

It goes on to say, He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross.

This is mercy.

You see, Jesus himself in Mark 1, 15 says to repent and believe the gospel.

The gospel is simply put as this.

It's found in 1 Corinthians 15, 1 -4, and in there it describes that Jesus being fully God and

fully man, being perfect in His life, never sinning and fully righteous,

He should have been praised by us, but instead He was rejected by us.

And being rejected, He was nailed to a cross, He was buried, and He rose again three days later

defeating death in His resurrection.

And it says in there that anybody that has faith in this gospel shall be saved.

So my encouragement to you today is to repent and believe in the same gospel that Jesus Christ was

preaching.

And if you are with a baby and are considering murder, considering abortion, I would

encourage you to please not.

This is a baby inside of your womb, this is a human being, and it is precious.

God bless and have a good rest of the day.
