Psalm 139: 13 - 16:
13 For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.
15 My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.
16 Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.
We are all given the gift of life and time by God.
Every day is a gift.
It is God who determines the number of our days -- from the child who is still born, or even aborted to the centenarian who happens to have lived longer than the octogenarian -- or ever some teen-agers, or perhaps even a new born baby.
While it may make us more comfortable, no drug nor medical procedure can prolong our life.
No disease can take our life before it is our time to go (your mother).
No one who committed suicide ever had the power of themselves to end their life (Hitler).
The moment we die it is our appointed time as God Himself would have it, regardless of how we depart this earth.
This fact in no way minimizes the crime of abortion visited upon a child-victim, or any other form of murder of any victim, be it the murder of ones-self, or murder of another person. The 6th of the 10 commandments of God are very clear on this.
Your mother and Hitler will each have to give an account for themselves on their respective judgment days -- as will we all-- and it will be the only time any of this will ever matter in eternity.
I disagree with your statement entirely.
God very much intervened on behalf of everyone by sending His Son into the world to conquer the death that man's rebellion and sin had imposed upon this world. He intervened at great expense to Himself -- and at no expense to us.
How remarkable and sad it is that there is anyone who would refuse His free, redemptive gift.
God's gift is ours if we'll only place our trust in Him and ask Him.
Giving an account for the gift of days He has given us is something we should all think about today and every day and comport ourselves in a way that keeps this fact in the forefront of our minds at all times.
FReegards!
