The phrasing of the question is not correct! There is a way of doing what's called ICSI IVF where one egg has one sperm injected into the egg for fertilization. When my wife and I did IVF (due to her having PCOS and me having extremely low sperm count 300 vs. 3 million) we saved up to pay extra because insurance won't cover ICSI IVF to eliminate any chance of more embryos than we could/would implant. We had two eggs fertilized with my sperm then implanted and we have two beautiful daughters now. No embryos were conceived or discarded due to none being created that would not be implanted! We are what some people call extreme pro-life advocates and would never put a life in jeopardy due to our belief in life at conception. My wife and I agreed that in the event that it was her or our children it would be the children that we would save if it be God's will. I know people will say, "Maybe it was God's will you don't have children." To which I say, "If it was we wouldn't have children now." God wouldn't have made it possible through invention without His providential guidance and sovereignty, all praise and honor to His glory! As soon as my sperm was injected into my wife's egg, Rosemary and Elaina were born, period. We thank God everyday for His grace and mercy on our family, the jobs He gave us to save up money for the procedures necessary, and now not just my wife and I, but our two children dedicated to Him this Wednesday at our church, who pray to Him daily!

Wow I never knew that this was the process of IVF… I pray God blesses her and her husband with their own 🙏🏼
@joshtalksaboutchriatianity Says:
God can still certainly make her pregnant. IVF is wrong not necessarily because of what it is for but because of what happens in the process.
@gracevallery5296 Says:
There is ways to do IVF without excess embryos.
@stand4truth607 Says:
God can open a womans womb! We see that in scripture. Us women need to start trusting God more in regard to this. I've seen it done many times! Infertility is not a bad thing, though. Maybe you were called to care for the fatherless. That's a beautiful thing to give someone a home. Birthing is not the only special thing. Pray and be patient..
@merlinjoseph8385 Says:
What if every embryo is implanted? In this video it is not mentioned that ivf is wrong. Only says that discarding embryo is wrong. In my country India, multiple embryos are planted.
@HHGary Says:
I have a really hard time with this. An implanted embryo is a person, no doubt, but I have a hard time calling a mere fertilized ovum that has not implanted a person, as it will never develop past that point.
@josiasstrobel9555 Says:
couldnt you ask the docters to only make one embryo?
@bggippa3168 Says:
Love frank i really do but i think with any other topic thats more black and white with unbelievers, he’s more compassionate with them even though its blatantly wrong, but with woman a Christian to another christian , he was kind of cold with a topic thats not so black and white , he should have more compassion to a christian to another christian
@jd3jefferson556 Says:
This is why we have been given a Church that gives us these tough answers. IVF is wrong! You are creating a dozen children for the possibility of keeping one, and eliminating the unitive aspect of creating life by adding scientists into this process. It's truly discusting
@MyAllTimeKaraoke Says:
Why make multiply embryo, just try make 2 or 3 and if all is successful, have it schedule for implant. Dont make many embryo that you can't take the responsibility.
@davescave7267 Says:
Most doctors don’t just make them and discard them. Strange that she would have that happen
@davescave7267 Says:
I disagree with him on this one. It was the only method I could do it. And honestly we didn’t have to discard any. Not sure what doctor this lady is using.
@MusicPhrase Says:
Where is the support bibilically for this viewpoint?? Where does the bible say that life begins at conception? Personally, I feel the scriptures support life beginning at implantation.
@davidbcg286 Says:
We went through IVF. I was wondering about this. Indeed the more technology we get, the deeper ethical question we have to answer like “when does life start”. One point that made me consider ivf is : 50% of fertilized embryos naturally don’t implant. That’s a lot of “babies” in heaven. A seed needs a soil, otherwise it can’t live. I don’t think God designed a world where 50% of the life that will face Eternal judgement doesn’t make it more than a few hours. That doesn’t seem in line with the Hod of the Bible. Now I may be wrong, and we want to honor God and honor the possibility of life ; but if you believe that those embryos are imparted with a soul, you gotta believe that there are roughly twice as many souls as ppl who ever took their first breath.
@azophi Says:
Does that mean that Turek supports banning IVF, or just thinks Christians should not do it? I know he supports banning gay marriage (from the Correct not politically correct book) but yeah
@tubeincompetence Says:
As usual. The solution is to ignore Frank 😀

Look, it's Frank "Shitfaced liar" Turek

@hasone1848 Says:
What about all the natural miscarriages that god does not mind discarding... just count the discarded fertilized eggs as them. Does god not have the power to come and update his book??
@MrRljohnson77 Says:
We said sir. You were kind with your presentation of the truth. My prayers are with her and her husband.

What a sanctimonious and uncaring response.

Is it not legal in America to adopt a fertilised embryo?
@yazminalvarez432 Says:
She not telling facts. They can fertilize as many or and few as a family wants
@godschild2432 Says:
Lady donate the extra embryos simply put
@richtomlinson7090 Says:
GOD Is the most successful abortionist, and genocidal maniac. End of story.
@EdDrow Says:
Why can't she adopt? I know there are waiting list, but are there criterias which exclude you completely from it?
@thetechswift5549 Says:
you being childless isn't the plan of God, you getting a miracle from God in the form of a child as a token of His demonstration of love towards you is His plan, bareness is a curse of the law and christ has redeemed you from the curse of the law. Jer 29:11, the doctor's not God, he doesn't call the shots, you are who God says you are and if God hasn't said you're childless, then let God be true and every other voice a lie.
@anguschiggins2161 Says:
Good thing what Frank thinks doesn't matter. Go work with your Doctor. Don't run your life based on Franks opinions. He is not anyones spokesperson.
@Snowmon89 Says:
I never knew this was how it worked. Thank you for educating me more on the topic. This means that it is (potentially) 10x (if not more) worse than any single abortion.
@noemiaraza6570 Says:
Are IVF babies capable of going to heaven?
@shawngabriel7397 Says:
What about freezing the extra embryos? Then implant those in women who are willing to adopt those embryos?
@dodal_ Says:
I mean I don’t know how God views IVF as a whole, but I feel like IVF in itself isnt problematic if you only try in on a single egg. Or maybe two or three and then freeze it and promise yourself you will bear them in the future. (But the human heart cannot be trusted) The problem is that doctors suggest fertilising many eggs creating many embryos because of probability. If one doesn’t work you have then extra. And doctors suggest that because IvF is really expensive. It boils down to the value of human life vs money and convenience. I think that is where the problem is. Not in IVF in itself.
@madimetjashogole9479 Says:
Thank you Dr Frank for remaining consistent with these topics despite their difficulties. May we keep praying for Suzie and her husband to have their much-needed child, in the name of Jesus Christ I pray; AMEN.
@user-gv8xf9ul5j Says:
Does the soul exist once the sperm hits the egg, or am I walking around with a bunch of souls between my legs?
@kaelaleedaley Says:
After a long battle with infertility and failed adoptions because of my health, we were offered IVF on the NHS and we refused. The Doctor was very surprised and asked us again but we refused on thr grounds of forcing life. My health became very serious not long after this and I became physically Disabled and unable to care for myself, let alone a child. The LORD knows the thoughts He thinks towards us and His Ways are Higher than our ways <3 I pray for this lovely lady and her Husband - The LORD sees and hears them xx
@nicholasemond1388 Says:
How do you know the discarding isn’t the will of god? I mean it wouldn’t be the first time he has order or allowed the death of fully developed children, who is to say he wouldn’t accept the destruction of none sentient embryos?
@GracefulEloquence Says:
Renounce your god and find some new hobby that’s less violent and stupid.
@avishevin3353 Says:
Nothing that allows more Christians to be born is ethical.
@Jesusreignsking777 Says:
God sent hes only son Jesus christ to died for our sins so we can have eternal life Jesus loves you . The Gospel Romans 3:23-24, 6:23, 5:8, 10:9-11, John 3:16, 1 Corinthians 15:1-4.
@5xmasterx548 Says:
Personally I'd compare this to a miscarriage, nothing wrong with it in my eyes.
@drumrnva Says:
"I just don't think that's something we ought to be doing." Well, whattaya know! Turek was actually honest for a few seconds....😮
@Redeemer_80 Says:
Bless her heart 🙏🏼
@simon65775ify Says:
My wife and I have been trying for quite a while...over two years to conceive. It's sad because I have been checked out, and I am fine, and I believe that my wife is fine too. I believe that the answer from the Lord is no, but that His grace is sufficient for us. Plus, the rapture is happening very soon. I don't think we are going to be here next year.
@SamsquanchShenanigans Says:
My wife and I are currently in the same boat. We know it’s on God’s timing and not our own. We know there is a lesson or multiple in this journey. Dr Turek is 100% on the money with this answer and his words couldn’t be truer at the end. “Just keep praying and asking” 🙏🏼
@gladysveronica4253 Says:
Just because u can do it doesn't mean that you should do it !
@justbleedproductions Says:
What does he mean discard? Myself and my wife went through IVF and were blessed with a son - we had 13 eggs, 7 fertalised and 4 reach blastosis. 1 of the 4 worked and sadly 3 failed. Is he speaking about the 3 of the 7 that didn't reach blastosis?
@JamesRichardWiley Says:
Here we go. In Vitro Fertilization is the next target after abortion and birth control pills. Frank's god hates women.
@briandriver3915 Says:
Oh and just because it's new to the scene and isn't in the Bible..... it's going beyond natural use and function the human body was created for just like how same sex coupling is wrong. an anus a mouth and hands and objects created for the purpose of solo sexual gratification with or without using it on others or during sex however you can think of it it's going beyond natural use of the body God created and defying the natural systems the body was created to do
