The Seventh Commandment

The Seventh Commandment declares, “You shall not steal.” Whenever we violate the right to life, we steal. We rob the person of what is his – the recognition of his rights, the protection of his life.

Actions like abortion also rob God himself of what is his. Once when I was praying at an abortion facility with a group of people, and one man had his toes over the property line, a clinic worker shouted, “Get your feet off our property.” I responded, “And when are you going to get your hands off God’s property?”
God alone has dominion over human life. When an abortionist reaches into the sacred space of the womb to rip the child apart, he is stealing from the Almighty, and is also robbing society of the respect it owes to life.

  1. When an unborn baby remains inside the body of a woman who does not want it there, that unborn baby is STEALING from the woman. It is stealing nutrients, oxygen, hormones, and water from her bloodstream.

    The Seventh Commandment is pro-choice.

    Some people will take anything to mean what they want it to. Yes, I’m referring to operationCounterstrike’s comment! The baby is not stealing from the mother, he was put there by her and, thereby, given permission to use what is hers. If she didn’t want him to “steal”, as you say, she should have thought twice before doing the act that put him (human life) within her.

    You, Op.C., are making Indian givers out of women! Shame on you!

    Frank P, you go, sir! Continue your marvelous work of showing the sin of abortion!
