B] Explain how Christians might put their beliefs about abortion into action.

There are several ways in which Christians may put their beliefs about abortion into action. Christians who do not really have a clear view on whether they are for abortion or not may pray to God and ask for his guidance. Christians who are against abortion may pray to God to save the foetus’s and to guide the pregnant woman in the right direction of keeping the baby.

They could offer support and advice to women recovering from abortion. By showing agape they could help the women cope with the after effects of abortion. They could also use teachings or quotes from famous Christians in discussions in favour of abortion.

Or they may urge the mother to consider adoption so the baby’s life is saved and a childless couple could be happy.
