But before I go,

thanks so much for the EPC site, Win. Here are some exerpts from their position papers:

Heterosexual promiscuity, homosexual behavior, and
drug abuse are to be strictly avoided not only on the
grounds of personal risk, but ultimately in obedience
to God. Prohibitions against drug abuse fall under
Scripture's injunctions against drunkenness. With
regard to sexuality, Scripture repeatedly affirms that
sexual expression has moral sanction only within the
bond of heterosexual, monogamous marriage.


Scripture teaches that we are not merely to
avoid involvement in injustice. God's people
are called upon to speak for the oppressed and
defenseless. The Scripture passages cited above
are evidence that God accords human value and
dignity to the unborn child.

The 6th General Assembly of the Evangelical
Presbyterian Church affirms that the Bible does not
distinguish between prenatal and postnatal life. It
attributes human personhood to the unborn child.
