Son Worshiper, I think you should go all over the country telling people your true story about your sister. Bringing pictures of your precious nephew, also.

Wow, I am at a loss for words. I'm so grateful for what He's done in your lives and bringing this precious little boy to your sister. And for God's forgiveness and mercy that was sown. He has brought many rewards to your family for your faithfulness.

Praise God. :sun:

Love in Christ,

I'd like to post pics, but I don't know how and I don't have a digital camera.
I'm still learning how to do stuff on my computer. but I saw a disposable digital camera at a store a few months ago. I may buy one and talk my other nephew (my brother's boy, David) into posting some pics for me, or at least talk me through it. He's a computer genius. Lol.

Yeah, my older nephew (his name is Joshua) is a blessing. He can be really funny because he's so open and honest with people. I remember about a year ago the family was having dinner. My older brother had prepared it. Stuffed porkchops I think. And Joshua was eating and looking very thoughtful, so I asked him what he was thinking about. And he said, "You know, I just realized uncle Bud (what he calls my brother) cooks a whole lot better than you do."
And everyone started laughing. He wasn't trying to be mean or hurtful, he just says what's on his mind.

A woman who winds up pregnant as the result of rape is most certainly a victim and she has my sympathy. But, what about that child's right to life?
Even as a victim of rape, this woman is still the mother of a child and she has no moral right to terminate that baby's life.

Sonworshiper, I think you ought to post your testimonies in the "Testimonies" forum. (this one included) in the "Testimonies" forum.
You have a great God story to tell.

Thank you so much for your story Chad it was a balm for my soul!
I am against Abortion of all forms.

I certainly believe that abortion is murder. Some try to justify abortion by claiming that it really isn't a baby prior to a particular stage of fetal development. I can tell you, nothing could be further from the truth.

I used an early home pregnancy test, which was confirmed by my doctor. Due to prior pregnancy complications, my doctor scheduled a sonogram when I was only 6 weeks pregnant. Although there was no recognizable form, a pulsating heart was clearly visible. I don't believe a 'glob of tissue' has a visible heartbeat. I still have that sonogram picture, and when I showed it to my son, I explained that the 'dot' on the picture is him.

What a powerful way to show the awesomeness of God's creative genius to your son!

Thank you. God bless you. It makes me sad how people are against it except in rape cases. If you have that take on it, you'd be better of being pro-choice. If I were raped, I would definetly love that child but I would give it up for adoption. Even if someone didn't get raped and was with child she could give it up for adoption. I recently watched this movie where it started out really powerful and then a character confessed she had an abortion which made me flip the channel. Ignorance is bliss.

Rape is wrong and very sinful, but when a victim becomes pregnant and goes and gets an abortion, she has then sinned.

If she does not get an abortion, she remains a victim, but God can heal her though her forgiveness of the rapist. AND, God can use the child's life, either by adoption or in the mother's life as the child's guardian.

I was raped when I was 20 years old. I was prepared to keep the baby if I were pregnant. I did not report the rape, unfortunately, and just quietly waited a few weeks to see if I was pregnant. (I know, I was dumb.)

I wasn't pregnant, thank God. Some other problems came about, but pregnancy wasn't one of them.

When women look me in the eye and say, "Abortion is right in some cases," I can look them straight in the eye and tell them, "No, it is not right and I wouldn't do it."
