Promise Keepers is not political. Politics won’t bring peace and joy to the world. Only the grace and love of Jesus will do that.
Abortion is not politics. It’s murder. What the state of New York did by passing a law that would allow the killing of a baby that could easily live outside the womb is an evil that is unfathomable. A man of God has the responsibility to protect those who cannot protect themselves. Here is what we stand for:
1. Promise Keepers don’t cause unwanted pregnancies because we understand that sex is confined to marriage only.
2. If we sin and cause an unplanned pregnancy outside of marriage, we commit to helping raise that child. We support with our time, our money and our love. There would be substantially fewer women choosing to have abortions if the men who fathered the baby lived up to their responsibilities.
3. We never condemn a woman who is considering an abortion. She needs our support and our help. Perhaps through love and the Gospel of Jesus Christ, she will understand that she carries the greatest gift a person can give another: life.
4. We commit to fighting against any politician who promotes abortion and to supporting leaders who stand for life.
This is not politics. It’s life. We are the men of God and will will defend the defenseless. Are you with us?!?
