QuestionToday i just had unprotecte sex with my boyfriend. I am 16 years old. I'm really scared that im pregnant. I also had sex about a week ago. I am really thinking abut the morning after pill but my religion teacher at school says its an abortion method. I dont know what to do and i dont want GOD to be upset with me. What should i do?
AnswerHi Kate,
The first thing you need to do is make a decision to STOP HAVING SEX. You are not married and God talks about this in the Bible. When you have sex outside of marriage, you are committing fornication and heaven then becomes unavailable to you. God is already disappointed that you were having sex....and will not be happy if you decide to abort a baby. Abortion is murder...
You need to get quiet before the Lord and repent for having sex. If you truly mean it in your heart, you will be forgiven and you can start with a fresh slate, as though you never sinned.That's the beauty of God's grace. If you end up pregnant, then you need to make a decision whether to keep the baby and raise it, or give it up for adoption. There is no choice for abortion. These are hard decisions for a 16 year old to make. But many before you have had to make them and if you rely on the Lord for help, He will be there to help you with all of the decisions.
I want you to go to these websites:

Kate, I know you are scared. But you made a choice to put yourself in this position and your boyfriend is guilty as well. You now have consequences that you may have to face. You both need to STOP sexual relations. I don't care if you have to get a chastity belt or use duct tape. Keep your knees together! If you are "lucky" enough to escape pregnancy this time, there may not be a second chance next time. Don't let there be a next time. It's all a matter of choice. You CAN control yourself if you CHOOSE to....
Best wishes to you and let me know what happens.
Pastor Kim
