David Platt on Abortion

The Abort73 Blog: David Platt on Abortion: Earlier this month, David Platt of The Church at Brook Hills in Birmingham, AL, preached on abortion–I believe for the first time. The topic snuck up on him in a way, when he landed on Psalm 78:5-6. It reads, 'He established a testimony in Jacob and appointed a law in Israel, which he commanded our fathers to teach to their children, that the next generation might know them, the children yet unborn.'

Preparing for a series on the importance of faithfully imparting the gospel to the coming generations, he immediately asked himself, 'how will we pass the gospel onto the next generation, if we eliminate the children yet unborn?' That question became the basis for his July 3 message, 'The Child Yet Unborn.'
