Because God made you for a reason, he also decided when you would be born and how long you would live. He planned the days of your life in advance, choosing the exact time of your birth and death.

The Bible says, "You saw me before I was born and scheduled each day of my life before I began to breathe. Every day was recorded in your book!" [Psalm 139:16]

There is also this:
Regardless of the circumstances of your birth or who your parents are, God had a plan in creating you.
Under this view of the universe, God plans everything.

Rick Warren said, "He planned the days of your life in advance, choosing the exact time of your birth and death." Let's examine one simple implication of this statement.
What this means is that God pre-planned every abortion that has taken place on our planet.

If you think about this implication for a few moments, you will begin to realize how impossible "God's plan" is. If the concept of "God's plan" is true, you can first of all see that God wants us to be aborting children. Every single abortion is planned by God, so God must be doing it for a reason. Second, you can see that both the mother who requests the abortion and the doctor who performs it are blameless. Since it is God who planned the abortion of the child (God chose the "exact time" of the death, according to Rick Warren), the mother and doctor are simply puppets who are fulfilling God's plan. You can also see that all the Christians who are fighting against abortion are missing the point. They are actually fighting against God's plan, and their fight is completely futile. God is the all-powerful ruler of the universe, and his plan is for more than a million children a year to die in the United States through abortion.

Tell me how I a missing the point if you think I am. ?

What about miscarriages? If god plans EVERYTHING that would mean he also plans miscarriages... and thus is the aborter of the fetus. So.... if he pre-determines miscarriages that would mean he also supports abortion.

I'm not a religious fanatic or such, and I can see what you are trying to say, but whatever God's Plan is you have to 1st accept your role in it. We were created with free will, which means we have a choice. God's plan might be for me to be a lifeguard on some beach somewhere so that I might be able to help someone when the time comes, He can help guide me into that by helping me be a strong swimmer or something that would encourage that field. But if I choose to be a plumber instead I have used my free will and made a choice contrary to what the plan was for me. In regards to abortion, the parent(s) are making a choice that is possibly contrary to God's plan. We as people are given the opportunity to make choices good or bad.

So I would say God is not an advocate of abortion, but rather an advocate of free will, and one will have to come to terms with their choices when the time comes..

First problem wrong with this is just because God knows the future doesn't mean he is forcing people to live a certain way.
Everyone has the ability to decide for themselves how they're going to live their lives, regardless of what God knows about their decisions.
As far as that bible verse is considered, your reading from an translation to bring about your point. What this verse is saying is God knows the end from the beginning. This does not mean he wants certain people to kill others to fufill his purpose.
God does have a plan for everyone, but the plan is for good and not for evil. However a person can reject his plan, because of free will.
So yes God knew who would be aborted, but it happened because those people went against the will of God. God in his mercy allows people to rebell against his power, because he wants people to have free will.
So therefore the whole argument ends up falling to pieces.
As far as why bad happens, it occurs because of sin. The law of sin and death requires all men to die once. So God is under no obligation to keep a sinner for any one moment.

So No God does not believe in Abortion because it is murder. However God will allow wicked men, to kill their babies because they're given the choice.

Herein lies the error of your argument.
You have forgotten about SIN. Sin was not God's design. God created Man with Free Will, that is, the ability to choose good or evil. God wants people to choose good; but more often than not, they choose evil.
God DOES have a plan for everyone's life, but the Free Will factor is still there. The only ones who "plan" abortions are the sinning parents and their doctors. One of God's Laws is "Thou Shalt Not Kill", so obviously abortion is not one of God's plans. God cannot force us to obey; He wants us to come to Him and obey Him willingly, out of love, not fear.
Your post seems very hateful and you misunderstand God's loving nature, attributing characteristics of Satan to God.

God didn't plan abortions.Reason why,before the fall of man there was no death,disease,famine,etc,etc.Abortions is the idea of sinful fallible humans.
Psalms 127:3 Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.

Ezekiel 16:20 Moreover thou hast taken thy sons and thy daughters, whom thou hast borne unto me, and these hast thou sacrificed unto them to be devoured. Is this of thy whoredoms a small matter,
16:21 That thou hast slain my children, and delivered them to cause them to pass through the fire for them?

Amos 1:13 Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of the children of Ammon, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have ripped up the women with child of Gilead, that they might enlarge their border:
Abortion was not God's plan.
Abortion is plain ol' murder.It doesn't matter how somebody sugarcoats it.
Stop blaming God.

Do you know how often the worn "plan" is used in the Bible? 0. There is a difference in God's plan and God's foreknowledge.

You probably have a best friend that you know so well that you know how they will react when they hear that their team just scored a touchdown, or that their favorite movie is now out on DVD.

Well, God knows each of us infinitely better than that. He knows how we will react to different choices in our live.

There is no contradiction in God. And he hates the killing of innocent, unborn children.

He let it happen bc of free will, but would rather death occur naturally bc of what it does it the person who takes the life. God created and has the only right to take away.
The life doesn't end at abortion, that's what you miss. God also planned the lives of the babies AFTER they go into the next world. There is stuff to do in heaven and they are doing it. He still has a hand on those lives. Just bc he knows something is going to happen doesn't mean he made it happen, just that he let it bc we have some power and choice too.

Good points though. That was interesting and i wonder why more ppl don't think of that

Sorry that I didn't read your whole post, but God gave people freewill. That means if they are the type to abort their babies, then that's their choice. Of course they will pay for it (no doubt about that), but those aborted babies are babies with perfect bodies in God's arms right now.

So, yes, God knows that 'Karen' is going to abort her baby. Well, that's 'Karen's' choice. And thank God that the baby is safe in God's arms now and doesn't have to live the life of being with someone who didn't want him/her and could've been abusive or worse to him/her.

God knows us all. No one slips through the cracks or gets away with something that He doesn't already know they'll do. So....once again...people are the ignorant ones who'd rather throw a baby away cause of their 'oops' they had one night. So, praises to God that He has these babies with Him safe from the perils of the life he/she would've had here.

God is against abortion because it is considered murder,God said life is sacred.Jus because you dont want the baby doesnt mean u hav to kill it,giv it up for adoption where people can giv it to someone who will love them for who they are and not because of a mistake u or someone else made.

God created us with free will, therefore, no one is His puppet. As for abortions, the fact that God knows the date and time that each of those unborn babies will be put to death doesn't mean he is an advocate of it! God loves each and every one of His creations. It is sin that corrupts.

I am not contradicting myself. Pray for the answer to come to you and close your ears to these ideas that are obviously of Satan.
