Reframing The Conflict: Why Is Abortion a God Issue
There are moments in life when the noise around us becomes so loud, we stop hearing what God has actually said. In a world full of opinions, headlines, and arguments, we need clarity, not just from logic or emotion, but from God’s word. In this article, we invite you into that kind of clarity as we unpack Reframing the Conflict Abortion is a God Issue, a powerful and truth filled message from Reverend Rodman W. Cory. This conversation isn’t about political stances or personal preferences. This is about life.
It’s about truth, and it’s about God. What if we’ve been asking the wrong questions all along? What if the abortion debate isn’t just a matter of rights or choice, but a matter of worship and reverence? Reverend Cory challenges us to see abortion not only as a social issue or even a justice issue, but as a deeply theological one. At its core, this is a God issue, and that changes everything.
He takes us back to scripture, back to the eternal truths that don’t shift with cultural tides. Genesis tells us that every human being is made in God’s image. Psalm one thirty nine (Psalm 139) reminds us that God is present in the womb, knitting together every life with precision, love, and purpose. Can we dare to see the unborn not as potential, but as already precious? Not as a political argument, but as a living testimony of God’s creative power?
Reverend Cory doesn’t just appeal to theology, he brings science into the light as well. With modern medical advancements showing us just how early life begins to develop, the wonder of God’s design is unmistakable. A beating heart by five weeks. Every essential organ growing by seven. How can we look at that and not be moved?
How can we call it anything other than life? And yet, we live in a world that often places personal autonomy above God’s authority. A culture that celebrates self actualization, but rejects surrender. Reverend Cory confronts this head on. Who do we worship?
God or the self? Are we building our beliefs on God’s word? Or are we shaping God around our own desires? He calls each of us to reflect deeply. Have we allowed our views to be formed more by the culture than by Christ?
Are we willing to see abortion not as a topic to tiptoe around, but as a front line in a spiritual battle? And if we do believe that God is the author of life, what does that mean for how we live, speak, pray, and serve? Reverend Cory doesn’t stop at conviction. He leads us toward action. He urges us to step outside the church walls and live as light in a dark world.
He encourages us to support young women in crisis, to invest in ministries like Love Life, and to teach our children what God values. This isn’t about shouting louder. It’s about living more faithfully. And perhaps most importantly, he opens the door to grace. If you’ve been touched by abortion, if you’ve had one, supported one, or stayed silent when you should have spoken up, there is forgiveness.
There is healing. No sin is too great for God. If you confess and repent, he is faithful to forgive. That is not an empty promise. It’s a blood bought truth.
So what do you believe about life? About God’s role in the womb? About your own calling in this cosmic struggle? Have you allowed yourself to see this issue through God’s eyes? Have you made space in your life, your heart, and your witness to stand for the unborn?
