Using a surrogate mother to bear children for a childless couple is as old as the story of Abraham and Sarah in Genesis chapter 16. Sarah could not bear children, so she gave her servant, Hagar, to Abraham so she could have his children. This was a common practice at the time, since a childless woman was shamed by her friends and family. This story is the closest the Bible comes to what we call “traditional surrogacy” today, where the mother is impregnated with the sperm of a man—often one whose wife is incapable of producing eggs—usually by means of artificial insemination. Also practiced today is “gestational surrogacy” which involves transplantation of an already-conceived embryo containing the sperm and egg from a couple. In this case, the surrogate’s role is simply that of a carrier, which was not the case with Hagar.

We learn from Hagar’s story that using a surrogate parent has the possibility to cause pain, heartache, and confusion. One problem that arose with Hagar is that she did not want to give her child over to Sarah when it was born. This can still happen today, as women discover that giving away their children (despite financial compensation) can cause immeasurable pain because of the bond that forms between the pregnant mother and the child she is carrying, even before it is born.

The Bible does not forbid the use of a surrogate parent but raises questions as to whether or not it is ethical. Marriage is designed to be between two people, and children are to be born of that union (Genesis 1:28, 2:24). To bring in a third party means that the child will have a third parent. Then there may arise difficult questions, such as will the baby know its surrogate mother? Will there be visitation? How will the child be expected to feel about the surrogate mother, and will there be jealousy? All these issues should be prayerfully considered before a Christian couple uses a surrogate. Couples who use a family member as surrogate can often head off problems before they arise if the surrogate has a strong bond with the couple and has their welfare and that of their child at heart.

The Bible says that children are a gift, not a right (Psalm 127:3). Just as God blesses some people with wealth and success, He blesses some with children and others not. Using a surrogate out of arrogant defiance of God would be a sin, but using a surrogate after prayerful consideration and a time of seeking God’s will and guidance may be a viable alternative for the childless. In all we do, we must examine our hearts and the Holy Spirit for truth. “Whatever you eat or drink or whatever you do, you must do all for the glory of God” (1 Corinthians 10:31).

You don't encourage people by telling lies.. Nobody has the time for games bro... we want facts, this is the same way we get uber / taxify drivers that come here and post rubbish.. And if we do find out we deal them accordingly. How do you expect us to have believe what you say... we have people that have seriouslly invested millions of naira on uber including me.. So I don't need someone to come on the platform to lie..

On your previous post few days ago. You asked if uber allows cars from 00 model and someody took their time to reply you . And two days later or so you posted you have been using your 01 camry for two months v6 .... I first notice it, but I figure maybe you type in error or you meant the opposite of what you wanted to say. Until this morning few posted your rubbish. This forum is for serious minded people here... I have read my riot act now for anybody that might want to do the same. Coz dru23 will hunt you down and ether you with his savagery memes. Let this be a lesson to others... uber forum is not a joke to play on people feelings

And take this too

Oga, u dont av to insult me okay? My first post was just to sample the mind of people on the forum as there are so many negetive talk about the type of cars to be used. So, i had to post that. This should not resolve into any insult this is i av been doing for 2months and u cannot do anything to it. If i lie what do u stand to gain? Pls be mature to encourage people on this platform. I am proud to use my TOYOTA CAMRY 2001 for Uber. I drive my car myself. So? If u av any issue pls deal with it. Guys pls dont be discourage. And for your life dont ever call me a fool again.
