God Gave Life and Only God Can Take it Away
I agree that only God who created all life has the right to take it
away. Firstly, I believe that all Christians and not just some believe
that all human life is sacred. The belief in the sanity of life is a
very important element of the Christian faith. Some Christians may
believe that because God gave life, he alone has the right to take it
away. This comes from Genesis 2:7, 'Then the Lord God formed man from
the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of
life; and the man became a living being.'
I therefore believe that issues such as abortion and Euthanasia are
wrong. This is because they destroy God's gift. 'You shall not kill by
abortion the fruit of the womb, and you shall not murder the infant
already born.' This document shows that even from a very long time ago
Christians believed that abortion was wrong and were against it.
Christians consider that even the unborn child in the womb was
considered an 'infant already born.' This shows that the majority of
Christians believe that God alone has the right to make decisions
about the end and beginnings of one's life. I believe that it is at
conception that life truly begins well before the actual birth. Even
though the foetus does not resemble a baby it is a living being with
it's own rights as a potential person. One of the strongest quotes in
the bible suggests this in Psalm 139: 13 and 15, 'you created every
part of me; you put me in my mothers womb… When I was growing there in
secret, you knew that I was there you saw me before I was born.' This
Psalm is one of the clearest arguments for Christians showing that
abortion is morally wrong. This would be seen as murder because you
are killing what God has created, and only he has the right to take a
life.
On the other hand some people say life is not a gift from God and
that all men are created equal, that they endowed by their creator with certain unalienable
outside. I knew that solitary yellow bead was part of me. I knew I was that yellow bead

No matter how many times you say it isn’t viable, therefore it doesn’t have a right to life, doesn’t change that it is indeed a life. Someone (Pro Choice obviously) brought to me the point that bacteria is life. Why do we get to use hand sanitizer and kill millions by the minute? No matter what you label this innocent life, it is a life none the less.
The moral issue here is: Do we have the right to kill, or is that the right

As a community we have the responsibility to guard each others lives. It is vital we do not, under any circumstances, deny anyone the right to live, when we should allow them to live as long as possible. We must not destroy anybody’s life, especially the vulnerable or innocent. I believe in protection of life, and am against abortion, murder and euthanasia, so we can live our lives to the full.
