Because the condom broke.

@Manstration@xanga - Aw, you beat me to the broken condom reference.

The Bible clearly states all children are gifts from God. This doesn't condone teen pregnancy but life is life regardless of the circumstances it is created.

@l0veBabyx@xanga - Well supposedly experience often comes through bad judgment.

Teen pregnancies are never "in His plan" for us; I hope you'll hear me out and give me a chance before dismissing me as hard-nosed.

ELOHIM (This is a name of Gods which means Creator, Preserver, Transcendent, Mighty and Strong [used in I Kings 8:23; Jer. 31:33; Isa. 40:1, and in many other places]) does not 'will' that anyone go against His own decrees. 

To understand this one has to first accept that 'the baby' is not the Sin; disobedience acted out in the form of sex with a partner that has not entered into a marriage covenant is the Sin.  In your studies, has God ever been pleased by someone disobeying him or breaking His covenant?

Example)
It was not in Gods 'plans' for Israel to disobey Him and cultivate a society of idolatry and immorality.  Yet from the beginning Israel was constantly straying from God in pursuit of their own desires (this is called rebellion).  The result of this rebellion was that God brought punishment (discipline) on Israel in order to turn them from rebellion (much like a Father will spank a child to keep it from doing things that will have worse repercussions).  

This does not please God, it actually brings pain to Him, but He does it out of Love for His Children.

Hebrews 12:6-9  6because the Lord disciplines those he loves, and he punishes everyone he accepts as a son." 7Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as sons. For what son is not disciplined by his father? 8If you are not disciplined (and everyone undergoes discipline), then you are illegitimate children and not true sons. 9Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of our spirits and live!

During Israels captivity they learned to "Cry out" to God!  Their arrogance, stubbornness, and idolatry was crushed.  They were free to enter into repentance and therefore a relationship once again with God---- it was their response to Gods discipline that mattered.

The same will be of a Teenager who now has conceived a child; she is faced with a pregnancy as a result of her disobedience towards God is going to find that she is TOTALLY overwhelmed.  She is absolutely at a disadvantage.

Her heart may now be softened towards God; she may now be ready to hear the Message He has given to all mankind.

She will have two options;
1) acceptance of the Lords rebuke.  This will lead to her raising a Child ENTIRELY depending upon God for the strength to do so.  IF she takes this option, although it will be a very, very difficult and lonely life (probably), "we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." (Rom 8:28).

2) She can, as did Israel (Ex. Amos 4:11), Scorn Gods warnings and attempt to bring her back.  She can seek to remove it (abortion, in this case) OR she can look hatefully upon the Child.  Or she can try and pass that child off to the grandparents as soooo many girls are doing today instead of bearing up under her own decision.

God allows these things because of His holiness, His justice, and for our benefit.  His Love is greater and far-stretching.  Its wisdom most cannot understand.

As I said above with Romans 8:28, this Child which is now put into the Teens life is meant to teach that Teen the ways of God; to bring her into reliance upon Him.  She can, as I said, ignore that and continue on in her own way, but she also loses the blessing of Gods rebuke.

The Child should be viewed as a natural result that God will use in an effort to get the Teens attention; I have seen MANY teens turn to and stay with God as a result of this kind of thing. 

They say that Mary was only about 14 when she had Jesus.

I recall one specific teenage pregnancy that was obviously a huge part of God's plan-- of course, it was a bit unique as the young woman in question was still a virgin.

Slightly more to the point, Romans 8:28.

@BlehhItsTu@xanga - @Pass_the_Aura@xanga - Beat me to the punch. Imagine the looks a 14 year old would get today if she attended church while knocked up and unable to explain the father.

Well, he did knock up Mary.

@denimmusic777@xanga - thank you :)

@deepestrecesses - thank you for taking your time out to explain

@Murderdolls_ELLE@xanga - It has Thank you.

@PureWhiteSwan - Thank you, and yeah I meant how he sees it for the parents, not the baby. I meant to make that more clear, but thank you
