Episode 88
COVID Vaccines and Christian Conscience
My wife Chelsea returns to Truthspresso to discuss COVID vaccines and related political and Biblical issues.
Rather than taking a hard-line approach, we try to present some information we could gather. We encourage weighing all factors according to the Bible and Christian conscience.
Questions we address include
- To what degree do the various COVID vaccines rely on fetal cell lines?
- How are the new mRNA vaccines different from traditional vaccines?
- Are there concerns with rushing the new vaccines?
- What are possible side-effects of the COVID vaccines?
- Should Christians favor making vaccines mandatory?
Chelsea has worked as a Registered Nurse (R.N.) in Pediatrics and in labor and delivery. She also holds a post-Master's certificate in Certified Nurse Midwifery (C.N.M.) and has delivered about 100 babies.
