IN Senator, "God Intended Pregnant Rape Victim"

[acjcpastor]

No, a pregnant rape victim is not God's intention! However, God’s intention is that biology works the way he created it to work. Now, whether conception occurs from love, lust or violent rape, that is not God’s doing, but mankind’s doing. We all know this world has polluted with evil what God intended for good. Of course as Christians we also know that God has a way of taking all of our sin and evil and turning it for good.

I think the point Mr. Murdock was trying to make and the liberal media is trying to spin out of control is simply this; once a life is conceived, first and foremost, we have a moral obligation to recognize that life as a God given, God designed, human life and a spiritual being. No matter how reprehensible its conception, it is NOT a glob of cells or ball of flesh. It is a child who has an eternal God given soul. Once we come to grips with that sobering fact, then maybe we can face the added dilemma. Do we commit further sin by murdering that life? Would it be any “lesser of a sin” than the rape that conceived the life in the first place? I know this is a highly controversial and emotional topic, but let me ask the question; would God not bless that life and use that life regardless of the pain and emotional distress it’s conception brought? Don’t we all have “checkered pasts?” Doesn’t God have a way of transforming us into new creatures and making all things new, regardless of the sin we were born in? Could God give the victim peace of heart and mind as she gives of herself to sacrifice nine months of her life so another family could be blessed with a child they could not conceive on their own? You see, perhaps I’m a clown and perhaps I’m making a horrible statement, but I’m thinking I agree with Mr. Murdock here. God can use a sinful rape and make something good out of it, just like he made something good out of you and of me.
