It’s scary. How do you put food on the table? What are you going to do? What happens if the family is not supportive? Where are you going to go? See, all of a sudden abortion starts to sound somewhat attractive, because how are you supposed to handle this? You’re not ready for this. See, this is where the church, if we say, “This is murder,” and yet we don’t say, “We’re here for you. We’ll walk alongside of you. We’ll provide for you. Come into my house. Come eat dinner with our family. How can I serve you? How can I come alongside of you? We’ll help you get diapers. We’ll get you bottles. We’ll show you kind of what to do. We’ll support you. We’ll help you get into school. We’ll watch the baby while you go to work. We’ll come alongside…” If the church doesn’t do that, then we probably don’t understand the gospel and should shut our mouths on this being murder. You can’t do both. It’s deplorable. It’s pharisaic to do that. To say, “It’s murder, but good luck” is sinful and disgusting for the church of Jesus Christ. No, we roll up our sleeves, we foster, we adopt, we babysit, we come alongside, and we free up capital to support. We send off to junior college, and we watch. It’s difficult, and it’s messy. It feels like it will never end. God honors it, and lives are saved.
