No.
I believe an abortionist can convert to Christ. However, I believe if the conversion is genuine, he or she will repent and leave the profession like Carol Everett did-

Sorry ~ offering up your empty shell to God’s grace is just an empty shell. Sometimes when you sell yourself out it sticks.
Amen. My thoughts exactly. Their Bibles make it perfectly clear, “Thy Shall Not Murder.” What part of that do they not understand. Abortion is murder and I don’t give a good care what they might call it. God will judge them for it and their opinion is not going to matter to HIM!!!
Excellent answer. I’ve never killed anyone, but I’m just as guilty in God’s eyes as any abortionist or even Adolf Hitler. I’ve been judged because I commit sin, not for individual sins. It’s only by God’s grace that I have been saved.
—Repentence is overrated as a solution to the problem.—
False. Repentence is the only solution to the problem.
IMHO it’s all about whether the person is a repentent person. If you have an unrepetent abortionist, no, they can’t be a christian. Same as if you had an unrepentent liar. Can’t be a christian.

It depends on how you define “abortionist.”
My wife and I lost our baby before he was born, and we went to a Catholic hospital to have the baby “delivered.” They performed a D&C to remove the baby’s tiny body. One could consider that procedure to have been done by an “abortionist,” though you could argue that the pregnancy wasn’t “aborted” by any human, but by the Lord ...
—God know these people—
He does, and if they repent, they will be saved.
I’m sorry for you and your wife’s loss. I wouldn’t consider your child aborted since God alone took him to heaven(I believe although I cannot give a specific Bible proof-text for that position), not man.
I do agree with you.
But I wonder about how the physician who “delivered” our baby received his training, or if he considers what he does to be “abortion.” I doubt it, but do find it interesting to consider ...
I presume you were not serious with this comment, but in case you were ...
Repentance is the Only solution. By nature we are sinners heading in the wrong direction (straight to hell). The only solution is repentence. Turn or burn.
As Peter cries out in Acts to those asking what they must do to have their sins blotted out and to be delivered from the coming Judgement: 'Repent ye therefore and be converted!'
And as the Lord Jesus Christ said in Matthew 9:13b: '... for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. '
And as Peter reminds us - God is merciful and patient, not willing that people should go to eternal damnation - but the people need to repent: 2Peter 3:9 'The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.'
So Repentance is the first, and necessary, step...

Oh and let me guess how they did that!? They did an abortion on a 15 year old unmarried woman named “Mary”?
Sickos.
The "god" is called by various names including Molech, Moloch, Baal, Chemosh or Milcom. The worship of him involved "propitiatory child sacrifice".
Leviticus 18:21:
‘Do not give any of your children to be sacrificed to Molek, for you must not profane the name of your God. I am the LORD.
Leviticus 20:2–5:
Again, you shall say to the Sons of Israel: Whoever he be of the Sons of Israel or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, that gives any of his seed l'Molech; he shall surely be put to death: the people of the land shall stone him with stones. And I will set my face against that man and will cut him off from among his people; because he has given of his seed l'Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name. And if the people of the land do at all hide their eyes from that man, when he gives of his seed l'Molech, and do not kill him, then I will set my face against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and all that go astray after him, whoring l'Molech from among the people.
2 Kings 23:10 (on King Josiah's reform):
And he defiled the Tophet, which is in the valley of Ben-hinnom, that no man might make his son or his daughter pass through the fire l'Molech.
Jeremiah 32:35:
And they built the high places of the Ba‘al, which are in the valley of Ben-hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire l'Molech; which I did not command them, nor did it come into my mind that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin.
Later commentators have compared these accounts with similar ones from Greek and Latin sources speaking of the offering of children by fire as sacrifices in the Punic city of Carthage, a Phoenician colony. Cleitarchus, Diodorus Siculus and Plutarch all mention burning of children as an offering to Cronus or Saturn, that is to Ba‘al Hammon, the chief god of Carthage. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moloch
This "god" was, as ALL false gods are, really demons and Satan who is "a murderer from the beginning". He takes what is dedicated to God (the first born). It is little wonder that most abortions are done on the first child of a woman, though many go on to have subsequent abortions. It is a great evil that has only grown in frequency the further away society gets from knowing and following the one, true God. Though the act of abortion does not take the form of "passing a child through the fire" as a physical action to a god, a child IS sacrificed, none the less. The tiny remains are often incinerated or put through commercial grade disposers. God will NOT tolerate such evil for much longer and there WILL be a reconing. Those who work in this horrible business MUST be counseled to repent and leave it as God will NOT bless anyone who who waves off the horror being done. How anyone can possibly think they are "doing God's work" is beyond me, unless the god is the one described above.
Jesus told the woman caught in adultery to, "Go and sin no more.", should we advise those who seek to know Christ anything less?
No, the doc was not an abortionist. He did not kill the baby, just removed the dead body. I’m sure it was hard for you, prayers for your child and for your family
