What to do when your husband imposes on you to have an abortion?

Question:

I am in a very bad situation now. I am married for 6 months with the only man of my life and now I am pregnant the first month. I am happy although I am not fulfilled about my professional life because I am still in college. My husband does not accept the child and because of this I am hit, rebuked and I weep bitterly when I think about the fate of my child. All blame me and say that it is not the time, that we are not ready for a child. My parents-in-law offend me and only cause strife in the family, and after this they pretend they are Christians. Nobody wants this baby but me. I was smoking before and when I found out that I am pregnant I renounced this defect, I tried to give a healthy life to the child and to me, but I was constantly urged to get an abortion. I do not want. My husband does not feel ready to have this baby, but I say that if God gave us, then it is of His good will and He will help us grow the child because it is a miracle of God. Now I do not know what to do: to give up to the family or to have an abortion? If things remain as now I am afraid not to miscarry because of the stress I have suffered or, God forbid, to give birth to a child with problems. Please give me an advice and I thank you.

Are you ready to be a father or a criminal?

So, if the husband says he is not ready to raise a child … But was he ready to conceive it? And now is he ready to kill his own child with such cruelty? So, he does not think that he is mature enough to become a father, but is he mature enough to become such a cruel killer? Ask him these questions.

Abortion is the most cruel murder

Abortion is a murder, a murder of one’s own child, the most cruel murder, and anyone who has had an abortion or gave consent to it, or even as your husband and your parents-in-law are doing now to impose on you to have abortion, all of them will be responsible before God and will live like a curse on this earth. Because you can not kill your innocent children and remain unpunished. After the grave an eternal destruction awaits for them if they do not repent from their hearts and do not enter a covenant with the Lord Jesus by faith and new birth.

Do not join killers

Do not accept to join this band of murderers and criminals who require you to kill your child. It is true that you will pass through great suffering, but you should know that if you set great store by your child’s life and you will defend its life, God will honor this, you will bear a blessed child and God will reward you through your choice. Do not accept under any pretext or pressure to have an abortion. If your husband wants to keep the marriage with you and if he wants to chase you, it will be his own choice. However, you should choose to keep the child’s life and not be among murderers.

Trust your future in God’s hand

Start to read the Bible today, because this book will give you wisdom in all respects and will bring much comfort in your sorrows. Also, always pray according to the situations and the needs you have.
