What is God's will regarding the use of birth control?
HANK
This is a somewhat controversial question. And in spite of the claims some make the Bible does not give a difinitive answer. Because in those times birth control did not exist. My suggestion would be to pray seriously and seek God's guidance. When he gives you peace about it you will have the best answer you can get. Regardless of what it might be. It may not even be the same as mine(intentionally not given.) But since I can't give you a biblical proof for my position, I can only say to seek God's will for what he wants you to do.
Best wishes,

Hi,
Prayer is the most powerful force in the Universe.
Pray for direction, to "God as you understand him/her", and you will find your answer to birth control as God's will.
Some spiritual followers beleive in it, others don't.
It all depends on your own Spiritual beliefs.

Birth control is entirely up to the mother, no ifs ands or buts.
It is not sinful, it is not wrong, and some imaginary god has nothing to do with it. Don't forget: morals, guilt, right and wrong, sin and good...these
are all judgements made by men because they think it's the right thing at the time.
One way to look at the problem is in terms of situational vs. absolute ethics. The human being is an evolving creature. So what might seem right at, say, 15 yrs. might seem wrong to the very same person at, say, 55 yrs. Now, how God views these things when someone is at age 15 or 55 yrs., I don't think we can say. But even if it is wrong at any age, we must remember that God is a loving and merciful God.
Well, I'd say that men and women are also spiritual beings with a great deal of freedom to choose, so it might be more appropriate to view this in terms of an ethical, rather than as a natural vs. unnatural issue.
With regard to the laws of nature, are these scientific laws? Do some scientific laws change over time? Are some scientific laws at least partially dependent on the way we look at the world?
Hi,
"Against the laws of Nature to use birth control"?
Is it against the laws of Nature to starve to death?
Some countries have many, many people with no food.......
Birth control could possibly help them to keep from multiplying like rabbits!
