Ethics
What does the Bible say about abortion?
Published Reviewed
While 'abortion' isn't mentioned directly, Scripture affirms the value of unborn life. Psalm 139:13-16 describes God forming us in the womb. Jeremiah was known by God before birth (Jeremiah 1:5). Most Christians historically teach that life begins at conception and should be protected.
Why this answer? It starts with Psalm 139:13-14, then cross-checks Jeremiah 1:5 and Luke 1:41-44 so the summary stays anchored in Scripture.
