In studying the writings of the earliest Christian communities we came across some of these gems that resonate with the Biblical teachings against abortion. Abortion has always been a selfish plague in society going back to the beginning of our history and it has always been an abomination according to God's teachings.
Thou shalt not murder a child by abortion. (2:2)…The Way of Death is filled with people who are…murderers of children and abortionists of God’s creatures. (5:1-2) The Didache (The Teaching of the Twelve Apostles) circa 110 AD.
You shall not kill either the fetus by abortion or the new born
Letter of Barnabas, circa 125 AD
…we are not permitted, since murder has been prohibited to us once and for all, even to destroy …the fetus in the womb. It makes no difference whether one destroys a life that has already been born or one that is in the process of birth. Tertullian (circa 160 – 240 AD) Apology (9:7-8)
