The Bible does not directly address the specific tragic case of abortion after rape. However, Christian ethics affirms two non-negotiable principles: the absolute sanctity of all human life, including the life of the unborn child (Psalm 139:13-16), and radical, unconditional compassion for the trauma of the mother. While the sin of rape is condemned, the resulting child is innocent. The Christian response is to oppose abortion while providing comprehensive support to the mother for healing and adoption or parenting.

How should a Christian approach the abortion debate? We explore the core biblical truth of the sanctity of life (Psalm 139) and pair it with the call for radical compassion. Learn how to be both firmly convicted and consistently charitable in this critical discussion.
