How many abortions did God commit during the Flood?

All of them.

Job 1:21b says, "... the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD." This is not a privilege given to man, so abortion is certainly wrong according to this passage and according to the whole of Sacred Scripture.

As for the answerer above that suggests we need another flood because the first did not work, I would only mention that destruction of sin was not God's intent in sending the flood. Noah and his family were and remained under the stain of original sin. I think (OK, I learned in seminary) that God sent the flood as a demonstration of His power and wrath. The Bible assures us that a second destruction will take place, this one by fire (2 Peter 3:3-7).

"3First of all, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. 4They will say, "Where is this 'coming' he promised? Ever since our fathers died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation." 5But they deliberately forget that long ago by God's word the heavens existed and the earth was formed out of water and by water. 6By these waters also the world of that time was deluged and destroyed. 7By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men. "

O. Palmer Robertson in his authoritative work, "The Christ of the Covenants" explains on Page 114, "... to provide an appropriate historical demonstration of the ultimate destiny of a world under sin, God consumed the earth with the flood. This cataclysmic event later became the model of God's final judgment of the earth, and the basis for refusing the argument of scoffers who would mock the certainty of an ultimate accounting day."

This is supposed to be an "answers" site, so I try to provide the best answer I can for you. I am sorry you received so many "flip" answers.

Wow that Nick guy is actually alright with his tyrant of a god killing babies because they might grow up believing in a different god than his own. Can you say psychopath? I think anyone who is alright with a mass murdering god has some serious issues. They actually taught me the story of the flood as child in church. Who teaches children about mass murder? No wonder I had so many nightmares as a child. How can you claim your god is peaceful and loving yet he kills people? That makes no sense at all. Apparently this god fellow doesn't have to obey his own rules, like Thou shalt not kill.

Edit

And yet another christian claims it alright for "god" to kill because he is "god" if he were a man would call him a monster or a tyrant but because he's "god" that justifies it?

"Abortion is the act of killing a baby for the convenience and personal comforts of the mother."

It isn't. Abortion is the termination of a pregnancy. About 70% of pregnancies are aborted naturally from failure to implant a fertilised ovum to a late term miscarriage. Most women who lose a fertilised ovum have no idea they have conceived.

If you were genuine in your belief that life begins at conception then we should be having funerals for every tampon just in case a naturally aborted foetus is there.

I just started on this site tonite, I have to say it really scares me to see what some people believe. i'm not gonna try and convert or convince anyone , but some of you really need to wise up. all i can say is that i hope your are right, because your gonna be dead a lot longer than alive. if your wrong it's an awfully long time to suffer your misjudgment , peace.

How many abortions did God allow in the Old Testament alone?

How about the many miscarriages?

The punishment for sin is death. If that's not painfully clear I don't know what is.

Children going to be with God is better than them growing up pagan and without God.

The earth was baptized and sin washed away just like we are instructed to be baptized to commemorate Christ rising on the third day and that the old man of sin is dead and buried and that we are a new person.

As in the days of Noah, people will say I will believe in God when I see signs. Like when they told Noah, they would believe when the rain started. But they are fooling themselves because it will be too late. Noah was prepared by listening to God and he got out with all his family. Lot was not prepared, living in sin (Sodom) and he got out by the skin of his teeth and lost some family on the way out.

God promised there would never be another flood that would destroy the earth. But the earth will be baptized with fire after the last judgment. see Revelation. Baptized by water and then the Holy Spirit just like Christians.

God doesn't look at the first death the way we do. It is the second death that is forever, not the first.

What happened to whales during the flood?

God is the giver of life and the taker. When God takes lives, be it individually or en masse, it is within His sovereignty to choose to do so. That's what being God means!

When humans kill, it's with impurity in our hearts and minds. It's with imperfect knowledge and will. It's with clouded perceptions and evil intentions.

You compare the two? You compare perfect righteousness to unrighteousness? You compare perfect knowledge to incomplete and imperfect knowledge? You compare the creator's right to choose the time of death to our willful choice to impose death?

You do these things because you don't know the Lord. Your comparison is silly and juvenile and your heart is so hard and your eyes so blind that you can't even see the truth.

I pray that someday you realize your own folly.

Lord bless.

if god really exists, why dont we get another flood because it obviously didn't work.
