A Pro-life Bible emphasizes the many pro-life verses, while rejecting liberal attempts to deny or downplay the fundamental pro-life theme of the Bible.
Jeremiah, one the greatest prophets ever, wrote:
| “ |
Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations.”[1] |

Searching the Bible for "knit" uncovers two spectacular pro-life statements, most notably in Psalms and also in Job:
| “ | For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb.[2] | ” |
| “ | You clothed me with skin and flesh, and knit me together with bones and sinews.[3] | ” |

Bible study
Learning the many pro-life Bible verses and then branching out from there is a superb way to acquire an understanding of the entire Bible.
