Well-known Evangelical leader Pastor Jim Garlow relates a story of something that happened recently that shows the strong support that Pro-life Leader Frank Pavone has across the Body of Christ.

Pro-Life Leader Frank Pavone, National Director of Priests for Life, reflects on the Sunday readings for the 6th Sunday Easter, Year A and their message about abortion. For more information about what the Sunday readings, and the whole Bible, say about abortion, and for resources for your Church, see https://www.ProLifePreaching.org. You can order there the book “Proclaiming the Message of Life,” which contains these reflections for all the Sunday readings in the lectionary. Acts 8:5-8, 14-17 1 Pt 3:15-18 Jn 14:15-21 When our Lord promises in today’s Gospel passage, “I will come to you,” he is referring to the presence of his Holy Spirit, who does not bring a new divinity or a new Gospel, but rather precisely the presence of Jesus Christ. The Lord’s constant promise of “life” comes to fulfillment with the outpouring of the Spirit of Life; therefore Jesus can say, “I live and you will live.” The preaching of this weekend, therefore, can focus on the relationship between Easter and the approaching Feasts of Ascension and Pentecost. The victory of Christ over death is shared with all his people: He brings our humanity to the heights of heaven and pours out his life-giving Spirit. The truth brought out in today’s passage regarding the “Advocate” is also crucial to the Church’s role in building the Culture of Life. Jesus Christ himself is our first Advocate (see 1 John 2:1 – “If anyone does sin, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous one”). Now, that Advocate is promising us “Another Advocate” who will be with us always – the Holy Spirit. Indeed, the Spirit advocates for us in the heights of heaven, that all the power of the redemptive work of Christ might have its full effect. But if the Spirit, who is an Advocate, fills us, he makes us advocates! He gives speech to the tongue, as we will see even more powerfully at Pentecost. He makes us advocates for the helpless, just as he advocates for us when we cannot save ourselves. The pro-life work of the People of God springs from this aspect of the Holy Spirit, who makes us advocates for those who cannot speak for themselves – the unborn and all the vulnerable.

Pro-Life Leader Frank Pavone, National Director of Priests for Life, reflects on the Sunday readings for the 5th Sunday of Easter, Year A and their message about abortion. For more information about what the Sunday readings, and the whole Bible, say about abortion, and for resources for your Church, see https://www.ProLifePreaching.org. You can order there the book “Proclaiming the Message of Life,” which contains these reflections for all the Sunday readings in the lectionary. Acts 6:1-7 1 Pt 2:4-9 Jn 14:1-12 In relation to the Culture of Life, this weekend’s readings reflect on our nature as a people, “a chosen race…a holy people.” This truth is expressed by the Church in our day through Pope John Paul II’s expression, “the People of Life” (Evangelium Vitae). In section 79 of that encyclical, the Pope invoked themes reminiscent of this weekend’s readings and tied into the overall theme of the Easter season: “We are the people of life because God, in his unconditional love, has given us the Gospel of life and by this same Gospel we have been transformed and saved. We have been ransomed by the "Author of life" (Acts 3:15) at the price of his precious blood (cf. 1 Cor 6:20; 7:23; 1 Pet 1:19). Through the waters of Baptism we have been made a part of him (cf. Rom 6:4-5; Col 2:12), as branches which draw nourishment and fruitfulness from the one tree (cf. Jn 15:5). Interiorly renewed by the grace of the Spirit, "who is the Lord and giver of life", we have become a people for life and we are called to act accordingly.” Moreover, the declaration of Jesus that he is “the Way, the Truth, and the Life,” and his reference to the “works” that he and his people do, can be effectively summarized by saying that Jesus is the Way precisely because he is truth and life. The Son of God came into the world to destroy the works of the devil” (1 Jn. 3:8), and as John 8 reveals, those works are lies and murder. Jesus, the Way, overcomes those works precisely by being the Truth (undoing the devil’s lies) and the Life (undoing the devil’s works of death.) The Church’s commitment to the defense of human life, and the work of the People of Life, takes its motivation and its shape from this truth.

Pro-Life Leader Frank Pavone, National Director of Priests for Life, reflects on the Sunday readings for the 3rd Sunday of Easter, Year A and their message about abortion. For more information about what the Sunday readings, and the whole Bible, say about abortion, and for resources for your Church, see https://www.ProLifePreaching.org. You can order there the book “Proclaiming the Message of Life,” which contains these reflections for all the Sunday readings in the lectionary. Acts 2:14, 22-33 1 Pt 1:17-21 Lk 24:13-35 “You will show me the path to life.” This line from today’s responsorial psalm sums up the message of this liturgy and of the Easter season. Christ Jesus, risen from the dead, fills his people with the same life, and this becomes a path, a way of life. Hence, Peter can say in the second reading, “You were ransomed from your futile conduct.” The journey of the disciples on the road to Emmaus, of course, symbolizes this “path of life” and the new way in which we are called to walk. Along this way, and amidst the challenges of life, we can be tempted, as they were, to “look downcast” and simply discuss how “we were hoping” that things would be better. By giving death more credit than it deserves, we can fail to recognize that Jesus is walking with us through the most difficult hours. This is especially true in a “culture of death,” when those most difficult hours can tempt people to resort to abortion or euthanasia. Christ, risen from the dead, walks with us and dines with us. He rescues us from the “futile conduct” of turning to death as a solution to our problems, because now, the kingdom of death has been conquered. Embracing life-giving repentance, we are now filled with the Holy Spirit, whom the risen Christ sends upon us, as the first reading declares. That Spirit not only purifies us, but enables us to announce the Gospel of Life and to become advocates for all our brothers and sisters, just as the Holy Spirit is an advocate for us.

Pro-Life Leader Frank Pavone, National Director of Priests for Life, reflects on the Sunday readings for the 2nd Sunday Easter, Year A (Divine Mercy Sunday) and their message about abortion. For more information about what the Sunday readings, and the whole Bible, say about abortion, and for resources for your Church, see https://www.ProLifePreaching.org. You can order there the book “Proclaiming the Message of Life,” which contains these reflections for all the Sunday readings in the lectionary. Acts 4:32-35 1 Jn 5:1-6 Jn 20:19-31 It is one thing to doubt the fact that Jesus is risen, as Thomas did. We, however, are more likely to doubt the power flowing from that Resurrection, -- a power that can keep us from sin. Today is Divine Mercy Sunday, but mercy is not to be confused with presumption or permission to sin. In fact, it is precisely in giving us commandments that, as the second reading tells us, “are not burdensome,” that God shows his mercy. It is not simply our weakness that “God understands.” He understands, first of all, our need of him, and the fact that we flourish only by living a life in union with his will. Therefore, his mercy provides us with every ounce of strength we need to actually fulfill the commandments, which is the same as to fulfill the demands of love. Love has concrete demands, beginning with a reverence and absolute respect for one another’s lives, and the lives of the weakest and most vulnerable in our midst. Actions that deliberately take innocent human life are always contrary to love. Yet “his commandments are not burdensome,” because by our faith in his Resurrection, we have the power to love as he loves, even to the point of sacrificing ourselves as he sacrificed himself. Thomas found the strength to believe when he returned to the unity of the Church. Perhaps when Thomas was missing on Easter night, he was out looking for Jesus on his own. After all, he was the kind of person who wanted to see for himself. But he actually found Jesus only when he returned to be with Peter and the other apostles. We too will find the strength to believe, to carry out the commandments, and to respect every human life, when we maintain close unity with the Church, the community of believers built on the apostles.
