To perform an abortion today, the following tools are necessary: hollow plastic tube, flexible hose, suction machine, curette (metal rod with sharp loop on the end for cutting and scraping), forceps (metal instrument like tongs or pliers for grasping, crushing, tearing and removing), large capacity syringe with long needle (for injecting chemical agents into the baby), scissors and a garbage bag. A physician’s skilled hand can utilize these tools to murder an unborn child.
To give birth to a baby today (under normal, non-surgical conditions), the following tools are necessary: clamps (for the umbilical cord), scissors (to cut the umbilical cord), bulb suction (to remove fluids from baby’s nose and mouth), appropriate size diapers, warm blankets and a knit cap. A physician’s skilled hand can utilize these tools to safely deliver a baby into this world.
When the Great Physician considers the precious life in a mother’s womb, He sees that which was “fearfully and wonderfully made” and “intricately woven” by His hand (Psa. 139:13-16). May our hands never shed such innocent blood or approve of those who do!
