You are having a difficult time comprehending. If the Bible is unclear on a topic, theologians are trained to help lay people understand what is written. Their opinion is more than just that, in understanding the context and the language used, it can illustrate the magnificence of God's word.
This is irrelevant to the point I made, so why bring it up, unless to confuse the issue? Are you trying to say they “ingrained” the sin of sodomy into unborn children? If not, then what is the relevance?
It was you that brought up Sodom. What God destroys is not murder. He gets to make that call, not us. Sodom and Gomorrah were entirely corrupt, which is why Abraham did not live within its walls. The entirety of that civilization was condemned by God Himself. Their children were taught that sodomy was expected of them.
Again, this is irrelevant. Man’s nature didn’t change from the period of the Old Testament to period of the New, so observations made about man’s nature from that period hold just as true today.
Man's nature has NOTHING to do with the Old Testament. It is the story of God raising Israel and (repeatedly) forgiving them. The point of distinction from the OT to the NT is that God's focus moved from Israel to the Gentiles.
More irrelevance, as none of that even speaks to the point under discussion. We are also commanded not to murder people, but that doesn’t mean the people we are commanded not to murder are innocent. If you want to prove people are innocent, you need to frame arguments from Scripture that show people are innocent, not make non sequiturs.
Not irrelevant, simply you not comprehending that God puts emphasis on not harming children. Your thesis is that all are guilty and by extension killing a child in utero is not a problem. This is essentially justifying murder. Try explaining that to the Master. Plain and simple, abortion is murder. While God allows for killing, He does not allow for murder. By your logic, since everyone is guilty, we are free to kill whomever we wish and would be justified by God. This is the core tenet of Islam.
This argument actually serves to butress MY argument, not yours. The whole reason Christ needs to save us is because we are guilty in the first place.
Your argument is that all are guilty and therefor abortion is not a sin. This is patently false. God makes the distinction between justified killing and murder. Abortion is murder.
“If the Bible is unclear on a topic...”
It’s not unclear on this topic, so theologian’s opinions are not necessary here.
“What God destroys is not murder. He gets to make that call, not us. Sodom and Gomorrah were entirely corrupt, which is why Abraham did not live within its walls. The entirety of that civilization was condemned by God Himself. Their children were taught that sodomy was expected of them.”
You continue to bring up irrelevant points that don’t address the point of my argument. Unless you are arguing that somehow they taught their unborn children sodomy, this argument of yours is going nowhere fast. God allowed that he would spare Sodom if even 10 innocent people could be found within. Obviously there must have been at least 10 pregnant women in the two largest cities in the region. Therefore, those unborn children could not have been innocent, or God would have spared Sodom and Gomorrah. Is there something unclear about that argument that you don’t understand?
“Not irrelevant, simply you not comprehending that God puts emphasis on not harming children.”
I comprehend it, but it is irrelevant to the point in dispute, which is: “are unborn children innocent?” God puts emphasis on not harming EVERYONE, yet that does not demonstrate that everyone is innocent, no more than God placing emphasis on not harming children means children are innocent. You are making a non sequitur argument.
“Your thesis is that all are guilty and by extension killing a child in utero is not a problem.”
Incorrect. I have never said anything remotely resembling that statement, you have pulled it from your own imagination.
“Your argument is that all are guilty and therefor abortion is not a sin.”
Please do not lie and put words in my mouth, that is not a proper way to make an argument.
