The GO of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, (RCCG)
Pastor Enoch Adeboye, says abortion is ungodly and unbiblical. He made his position known via his Special Assistant on Personnel and
Administration, Pastor Johnson Odesola, at the monthly prayer and thanksgiving
service organised for pregnant women at the RCCG National Headquarters in Ebutte-Metta, Lagos.
"You can prevent pregnancy
but once the egg and the sperm meet and is formed, anything that
suggests that it should be terminated is against God’s word. The option
of abortion is an option preferred by medical professionals but as
Christians, we believe in miracles and that God is able to take away
every problems. There is nothing God cannot do even if the life of the
woman is at stake; pray for a divine intervention and God who created
the universe knows what to do in any situation we find ourselves as we
look up to him in faith.” pastor Odesola said on behalf of pastor Adeboye
So wait, if the life of the woman is at stake, she shouldn't abort but pray for divine intervention? I'm totally against abortion, but I also think it's okay to go ahead if you're advised by your doctor to terminate it if your life is at stake. What do you guys think?

ReplyDeleteWell, I think that when there is a real need to abort it can be carried out. Many have died due to such issues and God gave of wisdom and knowledge to know when a pregnancy causes danger to the life of the carrier. My people suffer for lack of knowledge.
ReplyDeleteI hope you know that the life that is at stake isn't guaranteed when abortion is done? She can lose that life during abortion or worst still damage her womb.

ReplyDeleteOfcourse it is,Lord hv mercy. Shady2link@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteIt is definitely ungodly. Even when one wants to go ahead with this act, there is a palpable fear and apprehension that comes with. This bad feeling only comes when one is about to do something that will confer guilt on one's conscience.
ReplyDeleteMshwwwwww......... Thats how many women have lost der lives. My pastor said this, my pastor said that. Who is this your pastor? Is he God? God will not come down from heaven to heal the sick, he will use someone to heal you. He expects you to leave ur house and go to the hospital when you are ill and if after you have gone to the hospital, ur doctor tells you that you need to remove a pregnancy in order to save ur life, u will say no, i believe God will intervene. The person is just plain stupid. If you die from such pregnancy, God will flog you before sending you to hell.
ReplyDeleteHe said give to caesar what is caesar's and to paul what is paul's. Why would you want to try God? All these pastor's and der preaching sef. Dats how one pastor encouraged a woman whose twin babies had died in her womb to push dem out. She did and died afterwards. And the stupid pastor said it is the will of God. Which stupid will? Fake pastors everywhere.
If it's an ectopicc pregnancy,se the woman won't terminate or there a miscarriage.nawa oo for religion oo.no wonder number one reason of majority problem in Nigeria is RELIGION
ReplyDeleteWell, abortion is not d best tin to do tho bt depends on dia own belief dat is those ladies who abort babies....if u nor wan abort,tel ur man to wear sucks or better no gbog....

@ Linda, that's how misinformed these so called "spiritual leaders" are!
ReplyDeleteThey travel abroad to pay heavily for their own health & medical check up ooo!
Now the so called sheep he's leading would start putting themselves in danger all in the name of "Daddy G.O.!"
Pastor Enoch Adeboye, with all due respect Sir, please face Ur preaching and leave medicine cum medical decisions to the highly skilled medical professionals!
Do U know how many lives have been saved due to technological advances in medicine?
If termination is a solution to saving a woman's life, so be it!
Termination is not barrenness! She will proceed and have other healthy kids... Please note this is when divinity & prayers should come in!
Please Sir, reflect and add Ur 'intellectualness' to Ur preaching. Do not mislead & kill Ur congregation! Nigeria is not even a welfare state where the government takes fantastic care of the disabled, vulnerable or malformed kids! So please I beg to dis agree!!!
All Ye so called sheep please practice religion with a lot of sense! I left the common out on purpose!
God warned us to know Him before we worship Him!
Also "He gave us Eyes to see them and lips that we might tell (all things bright and beautiful)!"
Hymn 444 in Songs of Praise confirms and sums it all up!!!

ReplyDeleteThere are instances where abortion would come handy, especially when the life of the mother is in the balance as advised by a doctor. After-all, God made us with brains to know what to do per-time.
