Issues: Euthanasia

Christians Who Support Euthanasia

A minority of Christians are in favour of euthanasia. They say that there is nothing in the Bible which states that a person must be kept alive at all costs. Jesus summarized the commandments of the Bible with the two Great Commandments ( Matthew chapter 22 verses 34-40) as 'Love God' and 'Love your neighbour as yourself'. These Christians say that sometimes it is the most loving thing to do to allow a terminally ill patient to have euthanasia.
