Lutherans for Life

Lutherans For Life is is a pro-life, pro-family ministry, neither a church body nor a denomination but a voluntary organization of "For Life" individuals.

Lutherans For Life exists to assist God’s people in speaking with one another. We exist to equip the church and her members to speak to others about God’s powerful gift of hope and forgiveness through Christ. We exist to remind Christians that God is at work and the battle over the wicked has already been won! What Jesus DID for us guides and supports what we DO, as individuals and as an organization.

What if that pregnant teen is your next door neighbor? God’s Word will guide you to speak the truth in love! What if that post-abortive woman is sitting next to you in your weekly bible study? God’s Word will lead you to remind her of forgiveness in Christ! What if that infertile couple is your son and daughter-in-law, or that unborn child who may have Down Syndrome is your grandchild? God’s Word will give you an understanding of the sanctity of life and a hope for the future! What if that dying person in the nursing home is your mother or father? God’s Word will give your family peace in those final days and hours! What if that cancer patient is looking back at you in the mirror every morning? God’s Word will give you strength to face another day!

God’s Word can “do” something – it does every day! And more than that, through the Cross, God DID something to cure the ills of our world. What can be more exciting than being involved in an organization that bases their work on God’s Word? What can be bigger than the Gospel?

1. God’s Word informs and God’s Spirit empowers our work and witness. (2 Timothy 3:16,17; 2 Corinthians 5:14)

2. Faithfulness to Biblical truth and integrity of witness are more valuable than political expediency. (1 Corinthians 4:1-5)

3. The mind of Christ determines our response to life issues; prayerfully with humility, compassion, and selflessness, speaking the truth in love.

4. Education remains our focus, trusting the Holy Spirit to change hearts and minds. (2 Timothy 2:24-26)

5. We uphold the sanctity of human life because all people are created by God who intends they bear His image for time and for eternity. (John 10:10)
