Were there to be no support in the whole history of ethical and moral thought, were there no acknowledged confirmation from medical science, were the history of legal opinion to the contrary, we would still have to conclude on the basis of God's Holy Word that the unborn child is a person in the sight of God. He is protected by the sanctity of life graciously given to each individual by the Creator, Who alone places His image upon man and grants them any right to life which they have.

Spirit and Life: The Changing Abortion Landscape
Planned Parenthood is having a terrible few weeks.
It began with the news that on the same day that the movie
Unplanned
was released on DVD, it shot up to become the #1 selling DVD on Amazon.
Apparently, sales haven’t slowed down much since. Over a week later,
Unplanned is still sitting right next to Avengers: Endgame on Amazon’s
“Best Sellers” list. In case you don’t know (and you should!), Unplanned
tells the true story of Abby Johnson, the former Planned Parenthood
clinic manager who became pro-life. The movie exposes both the truth
about abortion (that it kills a living human being) and Planned
Parenthood (that it never met an abortion it didn’t like). How inspiring
to see this comparatively low budget pro-life film holding its own
against blockbuster films that cost hundreds of millions of dollars to
make. As it turns out, the public doesn’t just want glitzy popcorn
entertainment: they are hungry for films that tackle serious topics and
promote the pro-life and pro-family worldview. Hollywood, take note.
