Summary/Abstract: This statement was made on September 6, 2015 at the 6th Ecumenical Confessional Congress of the IKBG accepted unanimously in Salzburg. It is based on a design by the lecturer Rev. Dr. Werner Neuer, which was brought into the final version with the additional participation of employees of the Theological Commission, among others. The declaration is primarily to be understood as a teaching letter. However, the signatories are also very concerned about concrete pastoral care for people in conflict situations. Many Christians were willing and able to accept the alarming content of the document. As a reaction at the growing rebellion against life and him serving natural orders, the Christians wanted with the Salzburger Declaration in the name of the Gospel and the Christian Churches, for life and for one “Culture of Life” to bear witness.
