In July 2022, Keller <a href=\"https:\/\/churchleaders.com\/news\/429716-tim-keller-answers-questions-on-theology-abortion-ministry-hurt-health-and-more.html\">answered<\/a> several questions in an interview after returning to social media following difficulties with his cancer treatment; he was diagnosed in 2020. One of the questions was regarding his opinion of the <em>Dobbs<\/em> decision that overturned <em>Roe v. Wade<\/em>. He stated in response, &#8220;If you\u2019ve read &#8216;How to Reach the West Again&#8217; you know I\u2019m pro-life. I believe the church must be too. I believe the Dobbs decision was morally and judicially right.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Two months earlier, in April, controversy erupted on Twitter when Keller <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/timkellernyc\/status\/1520189893917523968\">seemed to equivocate<\/a> as to whether abortion \u2014 which he acknowledged as sin \u2014 should be made illegal. &#8220;The Bible tells us that idolatry, abortion, and ignoring the the poor are all grievous sins. But it doesn\u2019t tell us exactly HOW we are to apply these norms to a pluralistic democracy&#8230;. I know abortion is a sin, but the Bible doesn\u2019t tell me the best political policy to decrease or end abortion in this country, nor which political or legal policies are most effective to that end,&#8221; he wrote, later adding, &#8220;People are focusing on the example (abortion is physical harm) and not the principle. You can do the same object lesson about gay marriage&#8230; why codify that moral in law and not others?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Many Twitter users pointed out that abortion is the killing of an innocent human being, and for that reason alone, it should be illegal. One user wrote, &#8220;I think the problem&#8230; is you waded into the political debate most likely to lead to civil war, and the gravest crime against humanity our country has perpetrated on innocent people since slavery\u2014and used it as an example of a debatable issue.&#8221; Another added, &#8220;While you debate these contrivances: over 13 million babies, actual human beings, have been slaughtered this year for the cause of simple inconvenience. Should God have mercy?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.liveaction.org\/walgreens-cvs-petition\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-283198\" src=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Keep-Abortion-Pill-Out-Of-Walgreens-CVSLAN-Horizontal--700x180.jpg\" alt=\"Walgreens CVS banner\" width=\"700\" height=\"180\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Keep-Abortion-Pill-Out-Of-Walgreens-CVSLAN-Horizontal--700x180.jpg 700w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Keep-Abortion-Pill-Out-Of-Walgreens-CVSLAN-Horizontal--300x77.jpg 300w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Keep-Abortion-Pill-Out-Of-Walgreens-CVSLAN-Horizontal--768x197.jpg 768w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Keep-Abortion-Pill-Out-Of-Walgreens-CVSLAN-Horizontal--500x128.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Despite this heated discussion of abortion as a political issue, Keller believed that abortion is morally wrong and a &#8220;grievous sin&#8221; \u2014 and Christians must uphold human dignity and should oppose abortion. He <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redeemer.com\/redeemer-report\/article\/the_early_christian_social_project\">wrote<\/a> in the Redeemer Report in 2017 that early Christians \u2014 the early Church \u2014 &#8220;was a community committed to the <em>sanctity of life<\/em>.&#8221; He added:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em> It was not simply that Christians opposed abortion. Abortion was dangerous and relatively rare. A more common practice was called \u201cinfant exposure.\u201d Unwanted infants were literally thrown out onto garbage heaps either to die or to be taken by traders into slavery and prostitution. Christians saved the infants and took them in.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>In the same report, he also noted that Christians were counter-cultural in their sexual ethic as well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em>Roman culture insisted that married women of social status abstain from any sex outside of marriage, but it was expected that men (even married men) would have sex with people lower on the status ladder \u2014 slaves, prostitutes, and children. This was not only allowed, but was regarded as unavoidable. This was in part because sex in that culture was always considered an expression of one\u2019s social status. Sex was mainly seen as a mere physical appetite that was irresistible.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em>Christians\u2019 sexual norms were different, of course. The church forbade any sex outside of heterosexual marriage. But the reason the older, seemingly more \u2018liberated\u2019 pagan sexual practices eventually gave way to stricter Christian norms was because the \u201cdeeper logic\u201d of Christian sexuality was so different. It saw sex as not just an appetite but as a way to give oneself wholly to another and in doing so imitate and connect to the God who gave himself in Christ. It also was more egalitarian, treating all people as equal and rejecting the double standards of gender and social status. Finally, Christianity saw sexual self-control as an exercise of human freedom, a testimony that we are not merely the pawns of our desires or fate.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>In 2021, he <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/timkellernyc\/status\/1464966366419640321\">tweeted<\/a> similar sentiments, writing that &#8220;the early church was&#8230; anti-abortion\/pro-life&#8230;.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"video-container\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The early church was (1) multi-ethnic\/against racism (2) committed to the poor (3) forgiving and reconciling (4) anti-abortion\/pro-life (5) committed to sex only within marriage between a man and a woman. Then&#8211;The Five were seen as radical and out of step with the culture.<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Timothy Keller (@timkellernyc) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/timkellernyc\/status\/1464966366419640321?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 28, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/div>\n<p>Many tributes and memories of Pastor Keller are pouring in on social media and elsewhere.
