Witnessing to the Sanctity of Human Life, Through Education, Based on the Word of God

An exceptional, comprehensive study Bible, which can be used by every Christian involved in every aspect of the pro-life movement—including the thousands of Lutheran and other caring pregnancy centers throughout America, is now available!

GOD’S WORD for Life is a ONE-OF-A-KIND RESOURCE—integrated with the awesome power of God’s Word in clear, natural English—that will enable the Holy Spirit to save and change the lives of hundreds of thousands of women, men, and children!

Rev. Dr. James Lamb, Executive Director of Lutherans For Life—and general editor of GOD’S WORD for Life—says that “Lutherans For Life believes that only God’s Word has the power to change people’s hearts and minds and make a real difference in their lives. Therefore, we believe GOD’S WORD for Life is a much-needed resource for pastors and laypeople, for teachers and students, and for those facing these issues. Dealing with the life issues based on the Word of God is a great way to help people connect with the saving grace of God’s Word of Life, Jesus Christ!”

The articles and commentaries found in GOD’S WORD for Life are based on these truths:

• Every human life is a gift created by Him;

• Every human life has been reclaimed by the gift of God’s Son, Jesus Christ.

GOD’S WORD for Life will enable readers to connect God’s positive For Life message with a variety of life issues and concerns:

Whether you’re a pastor or a layperson, a teacher or a student, there is a lot a life-changing truth in GOD’S WORD for Life for you!

GOD’S WORD for Life was developed by Lutherans For Life in cooperation with God’s Word to the Nations (www.godsword.org), a mission society headquartered in Orange Park, Florida, using the GOD’S WORD translation. LFL Executive Director Rev. Dr. James I. Lamb is both the general editor and a commentary contributor to this project.

Asked why the God’s Word translation was used, Dr. Lamb said, “When God’s Word to the Nations mission society heard about our idea to produce a pro-life specialty Bible, they saw the importance of this project and allowed us to use one of their already-published Bibles for inserting the commentaries. This eliminated the need to ‘start from scratch.’ An added bonus is that the audience targeted by God’s Word is the same audience Lutherans For Life wants to reach with our For Life message (‘those well-versed in Scripture as well as first-time readers, Christians as well as non-Christians’).”
