    Thanks for this Pastor Piper. I found out a couple of months ago that I was conceived through IVF. I was shocked and had a brief existential crisis. Interestingly, it was Christmas Eve when I found that out. Christmas is the time of unusual conceptions. I know that God chose me to belong to His Son before the foundation of the world and predestined my life to be His. He kept me safe and formed me in the womb even then.

    The practice of IVF has become very casual. It is indeed a commodity, and cannot be compared to the example of Hannah in the Bible. IVF has given rise or solutions to sodom lifestyle, single parenting, etc. Imagine women who abort babies at the click of a finger, but still undergo IVF. I know of such a case, where one child was born through IVF, at least two pregnancies that followed were aborted, one singleton, the other was a twin - both spontaneous conception. Knowing that woman she will do it again without much thought. A very deeply self centred and manipulative individual.
    And anyway, there are so many children waiting for a home/adoption.

    The Biblical answer is a very clear no. The last time humans used their intelligence to meander too far into God's domain he took out his wrath upon us. Creating life with technology and our intelligence, whether through IVF or cloning or any other unnatural means is an abomination, and God will punish us for these transgressions against him.

      I'm not sure this is exactly answering the question. Are children conceived through rape not knit together in their mother's wombs? Are they not capable of surrender to the Lord? I would answer that they are. Despite our sin, God is still the Author of life. I would argue that a child conceived in sin is still a life God created.

    My son is an IVF baby. My husband and I only had two embryos and both embryos were put inside of me. He is the embryo that attached and made me pregnant. The whole process of IVF from beginning to end is a miracle and brought me closer to God. I never once doubted God's divinity and sovereignty as it relates to the birth of my son. In fact, I was given a front row seat to it. What the doctors could not do, could not predict, could not control, could not bring about, my Lord Jesus did (hallelujah). Many Christians negatively judge those who undertake reproductive assistance. For them I pray that they may never know the searing pain of infertility.

    One’s identity is best understood “why” they where born rather than “how” we came into this world!
    God predestined our existence whether it was by way of being legitimate or illegitimate.
    Surly if God was not surprised if from eternity He had you and I in mind to exist. Not just us mind you, but also those who have been and will be miscarried or even aborted.
    What then is God’s justice in all this?
    First of all He is sovereign!
    Second, He is the essence of reality for all that exists as well that which doesn’t exist or never will exist!
    Lastly, He has provided a means to overcome and overthrow our broken state so that we can be as a measure of His grace to a world that is lost and lonely by way of being isolated through a broken identity.

    I hope people also understand that IVF is not always successful and only cares a rate about 33% success. Meaning that if it’s not meant to be, it wouldn’t happen. I’ve met many women who were not able to carry despite many IVF and IUI treatments. I’m a young wife who’s suffered child loss and of course I’ve considered fertility help but after negating the risks associated with synthetic hormones just make me feel like it’s not good for my body .

      Hi Brittney, maybe God doesn't "use" evil but he definitely creates evil, separates people unto evil, puts evil spirits on whom he wishes.
      Check out:
      Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things.
      Dueteronomy 29:21 And the Lord shall separate him unto evil out of all the tribes of Israel, according to all the curses of the covenant that are written in this book of the law:
      1 Samuel 18:10 And it came to pass on the morrow, that the evil Spirit from God came upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of the house: and David played with his hand, as at other times: and there was a javelin in Saul's hand.
