Should a mother consent to having her child immunized with a vaccine that was developed many years ago from aborted fetal tissue? Should a student use an anatomy atlas that includes drawings that likely used hundreds of dissected cadavers from the Nazi death camps as models? Should a woman who is imminently dying of intractable heart failure consent to a heart transplant if she knows the new heart has been retrieved from a young man who was murdered a few hours ago? The common thread in these scenarios is the question of moral complicity. Does scripture or Christian tradition teach us anything about moral complicity?
Hope for Life
This Bible study focuses on how God values human life and gives it purpose. The Apostles’ Creed declares that our triune God has redeemed all human life from sin, death, and the grave. He provides certain hope for eternal life, even in the face of death. Jesus is life for you.
