Is Artificial Insemination Adulterous?

[tigercub]

You are making the assumption that that they can not have a child because that is how God wanted it. That is not a view I consider to be supported by scripture. There are consequences for sin. If sin had never entered this world there would be no death or decay. So it can easily be argued that being sterile is a result of decay and therefore not a result of how God wants things.

Thank you for saying that (in a way I couldn't quite manage)

The Holy Spirit wants to lead all people to righteousness, peace and joy. In little things like choosing clothes in the morning. Whether or not to go to work... And we have mansions in Heaven, angels, they may resemble us, nevertheless they are surely ancient in the sense that they were created long before us. In a sense they have no history, in the presence of the great I AM.

We as Paul inspired by the Spirit said, should live with Heaven in mind, and also we should live for God, before we live for ourselves. As my pastor said, "Seek God's face before your next meal or where it will come from." Priority the issue.

If I suffered from cancer as in the Bible I would be careful as to what I eat, even more than now. And healing, yes, one mustn't let oneself die.

A broken leg, healing yes, it gives glory to God, I must add that I probably would not have the faith. A cast on the leg would be good, in that case.

Medicine isn't yours or mine or any collection of Doctors'. Or it belongs to all.

What does Jeus say, what is the Spirit saying. "Peace?" "Healing?" "Nothing missing, nothing broken?" Always the Bible is His message. He brings words to life for us, none pass away. I am sure the Spirit never wants men or women who are being saved, to be infertile. Some people would not be reluctant to use a donor's sex cell. I don't think it is for their peace, something is missing.

Do you ever think of God's plan for your life? And your after life?

Looking at these, it is better sometimes not to get married. As in 1 Cor.

After the war, not during or before WW2 there was a baby boom. It was considered wise to wait until after the war... Victory and peace time gave rise to good circumstances.

Much earlier I wrote that there is no harvest I can think of more weighty than the fruit of the body, such as my wife's seed and child with me, for me. If God cares to restore the seed the locust has eaten, how much more the seed in the belly of a believer's wife? Biblical belly, roughly the centre of the body. Joel.

God will restore in the next life, wanting to start now. Acts 3. The time of restoration of all things. And Luke 4 the proclamation.

I feel sorry for a man or woman who is pressed ro have a donor's child. God is much more compassionate than I and I dare to speculate about His condescension, and boasting, and understand He loves all.

Slightly off-topic, but I disagree. I don't think god ordains what colour underwear I choose each day. I think he has more important things to er...ordain.

Plenty of things in life happen randomly. That doesn't mean god doesn't have power over them, it just means he doesn't control us or every single little event in life. It's our choice to follow him, and give him power in our lives.
