    About this ebook

    Abortion vs. Life for the Embryo and Fetus: A Christian Study on Fetal Development and the Unborn Child in the Bible by Robert Alan King is a book with over 5,700 words. It will examine the evidence and show that according to God, the unborn child is a human being at the moment of fertilization and that God foreknows the child even before conception. It will discuss many pertinent Bible passages as well as various aspects of fetal development, suggesting from the biblical evidence the most probable time when the spirit actually enters the embryo. We will also take a brief look at when the child feels pain and the position of the early church fathers on abortion. Robert Alan King is an ordained minister through Calvary Chapel.

      As I was writing this book, I have attempted to provide the reader with the real facts and ignore questionable content as sources. For example, the famous photo of Samuel Armas' hand reaching out from the womb of his mother and supposedly gripping a finger is most likely a lot of fabricated hype over nothing.
