He hates killing but not those who do it. I do not believe in abortion but I also do not believe that God will not forgive.If He is as unforgiving as that then there would be no hope for any of us. We have all committed murder in our hearts or minds at some point.
Peace Be With You,
Debra

No abortion is not unforgivable..... yes it is a sin, but not unforgivable. One may have a hard time forgiving one's self, but God will forgive it in a 'twinkle of an eye" if you ask.
Let me put it to you this way.
If Hitler in his dying breath cried out to God, and accepted the gift of the cross [that being Christs death there, for all the sin of mankind] if Hitler did this then we, who are saved, will see him in heaven.
Now before you get riled up, this is unlikely , I just use it to make a point- the point being.... we are ALL sinners and GOD does not look at sin and say 'Bobby hasn't sinned that much"
or ' Susie has sinned so much"
That is not how He works. to Him, SIN is SIN.
Before salvation there is no scale, God just sees a sinner, in need of salvation.
After salvation, God sees sin, records it, until forgiveness is asked then He forgets it, [Psalm 103:12 "...as far as the east is from the west so far has He removed our sin from us]
Note also after salvation He records or deeds as well, good deeds that is. He will review our lives after we get to heaven and go over what we have and have not done with His gift to us.

Judges 21:
Exodus 12:
Just two examples of many on how the biblical god (the one invented by primitive men to organize a political power) has never hated killing innocents.

God hates all sin and only the denial of the Holy Spirit is unforgivable.

God hates other sins also. The worst sin is killing the Lamb of God. Jesus was sinless. He is the atonement sacrifice, even for this sin. Gods will though for us to see this (mankind's' sin). Jesus said that when He is lifted up, He will draw all to himself. When one pictures in ones minds eye Jesus on the cross being tortured & realized it wasn't because of His sin, it was because of ours, one is truely humbles & realizes one is a sinner who needs a Savior.
So, Yes, all sin is forgiveable even the killing of innocent. Salvation is the free gift of God, through faith (believing in ones heart). By confessing one is a sinner who needs a Saviour, and Confessing Jesus Christ Lord of ones life (commitment), & believing in ones heart Jesus Christ (Lamb of God) rose from the dead (resurrection).
After one is saved and blasphemes the Holy Spirit, one isn't forgiven. (One can't blaspheme the Holy Spirit unless one sees it's works & accuses it of being of the Devil.) Christians have done this by witnessing a miracle & accusing it of being of the Devil. It could even be when someone witnesses a person acting in the obedience of God, in the Spirit, bearing Spiritual gifts, and that person accuses the gifts of being demonic. An other way is to be filled with the Holy Spirit & live against it & sin & the Holy Spirit leaves and stands off in a distance. Jesus blood covers that person, but consequences are real & difficult.
If a person is a Spirit filled Christian & commits an abortion, there will be consequences. It isn't just forgiven. Jesus deals with it first. Afterward, one can pray to the Heavenly Father 24/7 again. The aborted baby is in Heaven with the Lord.
In response to other answers: Hitler is not in Heaven with the Lord. I have already asked God about Hitler. And yes, killing an unborn baby is a sin. It is written that if someone punches a pregant lady in the stomach & michief follows (child dies) it is life for life. It is also written that a curse on the land is when the mother births to the butcherer.
So, I believe if the legal system says its okay to abort, those that vote for it into law, will be held accountable before God on judgment day. I don't blame the young mothers who in their confusion & others said & the law encouraged them to abort. I know it grieves God's heart, but those in high places are ultimately responsible.

Unforgivable no, I pray that someone who might be considering abortion contact me. I would love to raise that child as a part of my family, you know? It really would be such an honor.

No. Any sin is forgiveable, except blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. But the devil puts such a twist on God's character, that most people will not turn to Him.

The Bible also says God doesn't consider anybody a "person" until they are born and breath air....therefore abortion is not considered murder in the Bible.

Nothing is unforgivable...if you are truly remorseful (in other words you wouldn't do it over again), the slate is wiped clean. What a wonderful and merciful God!!
