FLOWER MOUND, Texas, Feb. 20, 2015 /Christian Newswire/ -- Christians slaughtered in droves. Videos of unspeakable terror. Threats of blood running in the streets.

Attorney David Gibbs of the National Center for Life and Liberty (www.NCLL.org) calls on Christians and Christian leaders to speak up and speak out for life and liberty.

"The voice of the church has remained silent too long," he says. "It's time for pastors and ministry leaders to boldly declare the truth of the Word of God. It's time for religious leaders to come out of the closet on the critical moral issues of our day."

The moral issue displayed across the media almost daily is the wholesale slaughter of Christians around the world. The moral issue the world tries to ignore is the killing of innocents through abortion and the devaluing of life in end-of-life issues.

"In Acts 4:29," Attorney Gibbs continues, "the Apostle Paul prayed this for the apostles: 'And now, Lord, behold their threatenings, and grant unto Thy servants that with all boldness they may speak Thy Word…'"

Americans must exercise their freedom of religion by speaking the message of the Bible freely and with boldness and standing for life and liberty everywhere. The National Center for Life and Liberty (www.NCLL.org) works tirelessly to defend the many freedoms bestowed upon us by God.

This month marks the 10th anniversary of the death of Terri Schiavo. Attorney Gibbs represented her family in the battle of life that played out ten years ago when water and food were removed from Ms. Schiavo, causing her to die a hideous death after thirteen days of suffering.

In all these arenas Attorney Gibbs calls upon Christians to do these things: Stand for life, pray for others and be bold to speak the truth of the Gospel.
