How do we know that human life is precious?

Answered in 1 source

Human life is precious because it is made in the image of God, and scripture emphasizes its value.

The preciousness of human life is rooted in the biblical truth that humans are made in the image of God. Genesis 9:6 states that whoever sheds man's blood will have their blood shed because mankind is created in God's image. This establishes a divine standard for the value of human life. Moreover, the redemptive work of Christ underlines this value as He came to save sinners, demonstrating that each soul holds significance in God's plan of salvation. Consequently, human life, being intricately linked to God's likeness and grace, is honored and protected.
