Introduction -- In the beginning -- To plan or not to plan : that is the question -- Tug of war -- A few words about words -- Law of first mention -- Before the beginning -- Winds of change -- Compassionate concession -- Give an inch -- Splitting the atom -- Levelling or tilting the field? -- Nearsighted/farsighted -- Connecting the dots -- When and where : "natural" ways to bar the way to life -- Public health -- Right on time -- Right time/wrong time -- The gospel train -- A higher plane -- Constants and variables.
David, the psalmist, said in Psalm 31:15 "My times are in your hand ..." This article attempts to set forth a biblical response to a question which all Christians contemplating marriage will ask and answer one way or another, regardless of whether they have ever received teaching on the subject. David tell us in those few words, that for the believer, all the times through which we will pass in this life are within the sovereign hand of our Creator. Science informs us that all of those times rest upon a single event in time, without which none of the subsequent times of life will come to pass. And that is the time of conception. Should the timing and frequency of conception also be committed solely into the hands of God, or is this an area reserved to the sovereignty of man? Our duty is to see whether Scripture has anything to say about this monumental question. - Foreword.
