CBN News asks Pro-Choice Sen. Raphael Warnock if he has a Biblical Defense for Abortion

U.S. Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-GA) goes back to Atlanta every Sunday to lead the historic Ebenezer Baptist Church as senior pastor. He's currently trying to balance his first full term on Capitol Hill with faith and politics.
The same pews that bore witness to sermons from Martin Luther King, Jr. during the civil rights movement now are filled with congregants and constituents watching a rising Democrat.
"Someone might ask 'why would a preacher get involved in something as messy as politics?' I'm a patriot. I love America. Only in America is my story possible. You're looking at a kid who grew up in public housing. I serve in the United States Senate," Warnock told CBN News during a congressional recess period when he was back in Georgia.

Many Christians speak up about abortions how many Christian women have taken birth control pills? Hormonal birth control may cause abortions. Birth control that relies on hormones discourages the implantation of a fertilized egg into the uterus. If life begins at conception, this is abortion. The "morning after pill" is not a viable option for a believer. It is designed to cause spontaneous abortion.

[@lisaprice6314]

Let's have culture that doesn't use abortion as birth control. Let's tell the common sense truth. Let's tell women to prevent pregnancy and not be dependent on abortion to justify them not being rash in the first place. Common sense, one of the best gifts God gave us... use it!

“The meaning of Easter is more transcendent than the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Whether you are Christian or not, through a commitment to helping others we are able to save ourselves.” - Rapahael Warnock. In framing his disagreements with Warnock as simply about abortion (although that "disagreement" is certainly bad enough), Gordon deliberately overlooks comments that are just as troubling and misleads his viewers as to the true beliefs and faith of the "Reverend." This is absolutely unacceptable for a once-strong Christian news service. Shame on you, Gordon, and shame on you, CBN.

Just to have self gratification outside of marriage. When those women who are married, for whatever reason are unable to. How low and selfish we have become.

Choice is a form of free will which every human was created with. It's a choice also to be Pro Life. You are choosing, you are making a choice to believe. Nobody said that if you are Pro Choice that means that you will abort your child. Don't get it twisted like you always love to do. You have free will and no one can make anyone do anything, period. You can't make them because you believe a certain way and want them to believe as you do, that's a choice in itself. In fact, you choose to believe a certain way because you simply made that choice. To sum things up, being Pro-Life is actually Pro-Choice because of free will. Free will cannot be taken away from anyone, by no individual, no government, no hate group, no evangelicals or preachers. It's all about a choice, just because I am Pro-Choice doesn't mean I opt for abortions, I would never abort a child, I don't believe in abortions, but even that doesn't make me Pro Life, I already love life, but I do understand that I cannot make another person not do it nor can I force anyone to do it, why, because it's their choice. I know you get it, but you don't want to admit it. Ask God, that's where the free will came from to begin with, it's a choice. It's God's will that you have free will. Now you tell me if I'm lying. Ask God to eliminate free will and guess what the answer will be.....I'll wait.
