A premarital pregnancy means a couple has chosen sin over God. But it doesn’t mean they need to continue to make that choice.
On Wednesday, Pastor John, you answered the question of whether or not a premarital pregnancy nullifies the “unequally yoked” prohibition of a believer marrying an unbeliever. Today, the scenario changes. Today we talk about a pregnancy between two professing believers who sinned together. The question comes in from William.
“Hello, Pastor John. I became a Christian about two years ago, even though I grew up in a ‘Christian household.’ I am now greatly troubled to admit that I had sex with my girlfriend, whom I met at church a few months ago. We are devastated at the sin we have committed together, despite the times we said we would not. Now, I fear, my girlfriend is pregnant. I have frantically listened to every podcast about abortion. I am such a hypocrite to let my mind even entertain this as an option when for years I declared that I never would. But I am scared. Assuming this is true, what do we do? How have you counseled couples who are broken and fearful in our situation?”
