When Life Begins (2 of 5)
Series: Foundations

Psalm 139:13-16
A little seven year-old boy asked his dad one day, he said, ''Dad, I need to ask you a question.'' He said, ''Dad, where did I come from?'' The dad said, ''Oh gosh, I didn't know this day was going to come so soon, that my son was asking me where he came from.''

He said, ''Well, his dad told him he came from Philadelphia!''

And we're talking about foundational things, foundational truths. And where did I come from? When does life begin, is a foundational question and a foundational truth and one that is very, very hotly and passionately debated in our world today, especially in our country today. But the Bible is crystal clear on the question, when does life begin?
The President of Planned Parenthood, Cecile Richards, was asked the question, when does life begin? She said, ''Well, that's not relevant to the conversation about abortion.'' And she was pressed on that. She is the mother of three children. They said, ''No, no, you have three children. When did their lives begin?'' And she said, ''Well, I guess, if I had to say, it's when they were born.'' An abortion doctor was asked the question, when does life begin? He answered this way: ''We don't ...
