Should IVF Procedure Be Frowned At As Christians? by JSparrow(m): 6:47pm On Jul 21, 2013 |
Discussig with a female friend this evening and was suprised to find out that she considered the IVF procedure to be in conflict with the bibliccal concept of " waiting on the Lord". Personally I see IVF as every other fertility treatment. I believe when medical options have been exhausted or when there was no medical condition in the first place then the concept of "waitin on the Lord" can set in. By the way a succesful IVF procedure is a miracle in itself. That's my opinion anyway would like to hear your contributions please |

It is looks controversial truly, considering the fact that a woman going for the IVF means she is fertile but not so with her hubby. That implies that she would be recieving the seed of another man to make her pregnant. To me, it is permissible in as much the donor of the seed is anonymous and her husband is aware and agrees with this step. |

idnoble135: It is looks controversial truly, considering the fact that a woman going for the IVF means she is fertile but not so with her hubby. Half-baked knowledge is dangerous. So you go about believing that every woman who undergoes IVF has an infertile husband?? The use of IVF as a response to male infertility is only in the very minority of cases. Please educate yourself more. Google is your friend and the internet is free. 1 Like |

@OP, nothing wrong with IVF, it's just like any other medical solution. We wait on the lord only when there is no other way. |

idnoble135: I needed to emphasize your errors because that mindset is dangerous. You go about having wrong assumptions that is bound to cause offense and trouble in our kind of society. |

idnoble135: IVF is the process by which egg is fertilized by sperm outside the body. . .The process involves observing a woman's ovulatory process, removing ovum or ova (egg or eggs) from the woman's ovaries and letting sperm fertilize them in a fluid medium in a laboratory. The sperm for married couples mostly comes from the husband. . .25 percent of women can not conceive naturally due to one medical condition or the other, so IVF is the miracle or cure they need. . . |

J.Sparrow: Here is what the bible recommends for sick people. . . Jam 5:14 Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. Jam 5:15 And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven. Why do christians go to hospitals and take drugs from pharmacies since the bible has clearly told them what to do when they fall sick?. . .. 1 Like |

idnoble135: It is looks controversial truly, considering the fact that a woman going for the IVF means she is fertile but not so with her hubby. not necessarily, there are other factors involved. That implies that she would be recieving the seed of another man to make her pregnant. if the couple are christians, they can consider adoption, or they can simply continue as they are as long as there are no other issues. however, its their decision but for reasons of conscience, they should stick with what is biblical. |

Re: Should IVF Procedure Be Frowned At As Christians? by Nobody: 9:33pm On Jul 21, 2013 |
tpia@:thanks for the correction. Conscience you said? How could it come to play if they agreed on it? And to the issues of checking if its biblical, the bible is silent over some issues. And at such, i think they can go for this if they really want to. My point is that its not wrong to do it, its not a sin. |

idnoble135: the question is not is it wrong to do it, but is it able to be done. ok, the answer to that is yes. therefore, the question arising is, is it expedient. |
