During a question and answer session at Christ Embassy’s communion service yesterday, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome answered the question: ‘Can a baby that is a product of rape be
aborted?’
Using David and Bethsheba’s case to answer the question, Pastor Chris said despite
David’s prayer and fasting, the child who was a result of David’s sin still
died, thus it is right to abort any child conceived by rape.
See his explanation below:
No child should be brought into this world by force, if a lady has been
raped, it is left for her to make a decision of whether to keep the baby
or not.
If you have never been raped or someone close to you haven’t, you may not agree with this statement.
It is never mentioned anywhere in the bible, to keep a child from a woman who was raped!
