Does Jehovah view the life of a child as precious even during the very early stages of development after conception?

Ps. 139:13-16: “You [Jehovah] kept me screened off in the belly of my mother. . . . Your eyes saw even the embryo of me, and in your book all its parts were down in writing.”

Has God ever stated that a person would be called to account for injury to an unborn child?

Ex. 21:22, 23: “In case men should struggle with each other and they really hurt a pregnant woman and her children do come out but no fatal accident occurs, he is to have damages imposed upon him without fail according to what the owner of the woman may lay upon him; and he must give it through the justices. But if a fatal accident should occur, then you must give soul for soul.” (Some translations make it appear that in this law to Israel the crucial matter was what happened to the mother, not to the fetus. The original Hebrew text, however, refers to a fatal accident to either mother or child.)

How serious is the willful taking of a human life for a reason not authorized by God?

Gen. 9:6: “Anyone shedding man’s blood, by man will his own blood be shed, for in God’s image he made man.”

1 John 3:15: “No manslayer has everlasting life remaining in him.”

Ex. 20:13: “You must not murder.”

That totally depends on how you interpret that and when you actually think human life begins. Either way, if a woman decides to get an abortion, I doubt it's an easy choice and God will probably take all things into consideration. It's not something I could personally do but, I don't judge others for doing so. It has to be a very hard choice to make that that woman carries with her for the rest of her life.

There is a 100 percent chance you will burn in hell for your question. In Ps 139 God made his statement and then he aborted millions of these embryos through miscarriage. So if you think that is murder, then God is a murderer. You will burn in hell for your intentional misstatement of God's word.
In Ex 21 the entire verse is about men who kill a fetus. It is not about a woman that prays to God who tells her to abort. You are again intentionally misstating God's word, and the punishment in the Bible is eternal death.
Gen 9, 1John 3, and Ex. 20 are about murder, not about abortion. The Bible gives hundreds of examples of murder, and none of them are anything like abortion. If any were, then God would be a murderer. Again you intentionally mislead God's followers and the punishment in the Bible is death.

God expects people to continue to reproduce until he returns at the end of the age.

And since God doesn't work against himself, anything that interferes with the procreation of new human life is always sinful.

Some things (like abortion, and embryo harvesting) more than others.

ABORTION In Catholic morality, abortion is both direct (brought about) or oblique. Direct abortion is any destruction of the fabricated from human theory, no matter if earlier or after implantation contained in the womb. a right away abortion is one it truly is meant both as an bring about itself or as a thanks to an end. As a willful attack on unborn human existence, no count number what the reason, direct abortion is continually a grave purpose evil. oblique abortion is the foreseen yet merely accepted evacuation of a fetus that could't live on outdoors the womb. The evacuation isn't the meant or immediately willed effect, although the part result, of a few valid technique. As such that is morally allowable. the needed sinfulness of direct abortion is composed contained in the homicidal reason to kill innocuous existence. This component places the controverted question as to exactly even as human existence starts off, outdoors the ambit of the moral challenge; because it also makes the now many times held Catholic position that human existence starts off at theory both outdoors the middle of the church's education about the grave sinfulness of direct abortion. Abortion has been condemned via the Church considering apostolic cases. The education of the Twelve Apostles, composed earlier A.D. one hundred, informed the committed "You shall no longer procure abortion. You shall no longer spoil a newborn toddler" (II, 2). Direct abortion and infanticide were from the start placed on a similar element of malice. thousands of ecclesiastical files from the first century via to the prevailing testify to a similar moral doctrine, with such nuances as time, position, and circumstances indicated. the 2d Vatican Council declared: "existence should be possibility-free with the utmost care from the prompt of theory," so as that "abortion and infanticide are abominable crimes" (structure on the Church contained in the trendy international, IV, fifty one). Pope Paul VI shown this education in 1974. "note of for human existence,' he wrote, "is termed for from the time that the technique of era starts off. From the time that the ovum is fertilized, a existence is started it truly is neither that of the daddy nor of the mummy. that is quite the existence of a clean man or woman with its own boom. it would not in any respect be made human if it were no longer human already." consequently, "divine regulation and organic reason exclude all accurate to the direct killing of an innocuous man or woman" (assertion on Procured Abortion, III, 12).

Well, I believe that abortion is a gift from God.

A human is not a "person" until it takes it's first breath
--a thing is not alive until breathing. Gen 2:7.
--Punishment for killing fetus is a fine Ex 21,22-25.

You mentioned in the Old Testament how we shouldn't kill.....

Here are scriptures that tell us
Who You Should Kill
--Unruly or rebellious child. Deut 21:20-21
--Those who curse or hit their parents. Lev 20:9,
Ex 21:15
--Worshipers of other gods. Deut 13:6-11
--psychics, witches. Lev 20:27, Deut 13:6-11,
Ex 22:18.
--Those who do not believe in Jesus (parable).
Luke 19:27.
--Those who work on the Sabbath. Ex 35:2
Moses kills a gentile for this. Num 15:32-36.
--Those who are accused by at least two people
of wickedness. Deut 17:6.
--The children and babies of enemies.
Num 31:17,Deut 20:13, Psalm 137:9, Lev 26:29.
--Adulterers. Lev 20:10.
--Homosexuals. Lev 20:13.
--A woman who is not a virgin when married.
Deut 22:13-21.
--Those who are careless with murderous
livestock. Exodus 21:29.

OBVIOUSLY God views life and death differently than we sentimental saps... Abortion is a beautiful thing.

Thank you Jesus, for freeing us from the slavery of unwanted children.

Oh, there's no such thing as an unwanted child? Well, that's up to the birth mother to decide, now isn't it??

You are correct, the Bible is very clear on this topic. See also:

http://www.epm.org/articles/aborbibl.html
http://www.christiananswers.net/q-aig/aig-bibleandabortion.html
http://www.crusadeforlife.org/prolife_scriptures.htm

However, one does not need to be a Christian to know that killing innocent human beings is wrong, and that is exactly what every single abortion does. Before most women know they are pregnant (just 3 weeks after conception), their baby's heart is already beating.

God finds it appropriate in some cases:

Hsa 13:4 ¶ Yet I [am] the LORD thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt know no god but me: for [there is] no saviour beside me.
Hsa 13:16 Samaria shall become desolate; for she hath rebelled against her God: they shall fall by the sword: their infants shall be dashed in pieces, and their women with child shall be ripped up

I think if we don't stop sanctioning the legal murder of babies, He's going to lift His protective hand from this nation, and we'll really start seeing some hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, and volcanoes, to name a few. We're already in trouble for pushing the Israeli's to give up "land for peace". That's a farce, anyhow. It hasn't worked yet, and tiny Israel is being pushed to give up land. The whole thing is about to blow up in our faces. Us, the Americans.

Jehovah treats every life that has come into this world preciously, Jehovah loves everyone and I dont think he is very happy to see people KILLING innocent lives. He wants everyone to live on earth in peace someday.
