What does it mean to be "Pro-Life"or"Pro-Jesus"?We Christians are thoroughly and unabashedly pro-life. We are pro-life because we believe life is sacred. We are pro-life because the word of God teaches us that we humans are created in the image and likeness of God. For this reason,We are pro-preborn babies, pro-newborn babies, pro-woman, pro-child, pro-man, pro-elderly, pro-vulnerable, pro-human, and pro-creation!We reject the shallow mantra of "pro-choice" which masks any thoughtful consideration of sexual intercourse, pregnancy, childbirth, or abortion.We reject the unfinished thought of a woman's right to choose...We reject the fashionable claim of "reproductive rights" which has resulted in untold millions of abortions.We reject violence and unnatural death in all its forms-abortion, terrorism, capital punishment, and euthanasia.We embrace the fact that we humans procreate, not reproduce. Animals reproduce. Machines copy. Humans procreate.We know that "life" and the future of the human community are sexually transmitted—by the wondrous design of our maker. We are in awe of the power God invested in us: that we, imaging God's creativity, have the power to create new humans in God's image.We embrace the fact that humans need to live in community, responsive to each other, caring for the young, the sick and the old, sharing their burdens and joys.And above all, we acknowledge that Jesus is the life and we are for-JESUS.
