About this ebook
What does the Bible teach about life in the womb?
What value does God place on the life of the unborn child?
What is the work of God in the life of the fetus?
Does God's love for me begin at birth or is there evidence of His love from the time of conception?
This simple study examines what the Bible has to say about the value God places on life in the womb.

Preface
The motivation for this study is a brief conversation I had with a brother in Christ about his concern with the practice of abortion in our day. This, however, is not a study about abortion. I am not qualified to do such a study. As I reflected on this matter, however, I felt the need to examine the teaching of Scripture about life in the womb and the plan of God even before conception.
In this study, we will examine the teachings of both the Old and New Testaments about the value of life in the womb. We will see how the hand of God not only forms the small child but also prepares this life for His purpose. It is my desire that we would see the fruit of the womb as God sees it and that our hearts would be encouraged to see the preciousness and value of life before birth.
May the Lord be pleased to use this study to bless and encourage you in your reflection on this important time of life.

Chapter 1 - Known Before Conception
God said, No but Sarah your wife shall bear you a son, and you shall call his name Isaac. I will establish my covenant with him as an everlasting covenant for his offspring after him.
(Genesis 17:19)
As we begin our study, let's go back to the book of Genesis and the promise of God to give Abraham a son. Abraham's wife Sarah was unable to conceive. This was a source of grief for them both. In Genesis 17, however, the Lord appeared to Abraham and told
