As I am studying Luke 1 right now, I am struck with verse 44 which talks about Elizabeth and her unborn baby John the Baptist - "For behold, when the sound of your greeting came to my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy."
I have always read this and realized how this evidences God's call on John the Baptist's life. But I don't know if I ever considered how this proves that unborn babies are distinct persons who are capable of emotions such as joy. But it does.
And this isn't the only Scripture that teaches us to protect unborn life. But it sure is a good one.
