Today we honor Sanctity of Human Life Sunday. God, our loving Creator, gave us life, so all life from conception to natural death is sacred.
Scott Klusendorf has an easy-to-remember acrostic for defending the pro-life position. The word to remember is S.L.E.D.—
Size: Does how big you are determine who you are or your level of importance?
Level of development: Are twenty-year-olds more human than ten-year-olds, since they are smarter and stronger?
Environment: Does being inside a house make you more or less of a person than being outside? Does being located in his mother’s body rather than outside make a child less human?
Degree of dependency: Does dependence upon another determine who you are? Is someone with Alzheimer’s or on kidney dialysis less of a person?
Use these questions to engage folks in thoughtful discussions about your pro-life worldview.

Do you think the fact that God repeats Himself three times is significant?
Jeremiah 7:31
They have built pagan shrines at Topheth, the garbage dump in the valley of Ben-Hinnom, and there they burn their sons and daughters in the fire.
I have never commanded such a horrible deed; it never even crossed my mind to command such a thing!
Jeremiah 19:5
They have built pagan shrines to Baal, and there they burn their sons as sacrifices to Baal.
I have never commanded such a horrible deed; it never even crossed my mind to command such a thing!
Jeremiah 32:35
They have built pagan shrines to Baal in the valley of Ben-Hinnom, and there they sacrifice their sons and daughters to Molech.
I have never commanded such a horrible deed; it never even crossed my mind to command such a thing. What an incredible evil, causing Judah to sin so greatly!

It sure is! How unspeakably horrible that God’s people would ever think that He would be agreeable to such a thing 😔
