1. Euthanasia

2. Euthanasia is a practice contrary to both God’s law and most governmental laws.

3. Active euthanasia is not the same as choosing to terminate artificial life support.

4. Euthanasia places the decision to end life within the hands of individuals. Termination of artificial life support allows for God’s healing and intervention.

5. The Bible gives us scriptural answers to such difficult topics.

6. Euthanasia Exodus 20:13 Deuteronomy 30:19 Romans 13:1

7. In addition to Biblical answers, euthanasia is against the law in every state except Oregon.

8. Death with Dignity Act Enacted in October 1997 Allows terminally ill Oregon citizens to end their own lives by lethal injection. The law says the injection must be voluntary, self-administered, and prescribed by a physician for only this purpose. Not a mandatory law Choice for the terminally ill person only

9. Euthanasia?? It is natural to seek answers from the Lord. It is natural to become frustrated. It is natural not to understand HIS decisions.

10. Remember the agony experienced by the Lord Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane on His way to Calvary. Not my will but thine be done.

11. Christians must understand… active euthanasia and the removal of artificial life support are two very different things.

12. As believers we must have the faith of the mustard seed, understanding that if it is HIS will HE can move that mountain.

13. Even in our sinful selfish natures, God understands every tear that falls….both yours and mine.

14. Psalm 23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil.
