Life Word Mission (Korean: 생명의말씀선교회; RRseng-myung-ui-mal-ssum-seon-gyo-hoe) is a South Korean Christian-based new religious movement founded in 1982 by Lee Yo-han (Korean: 이요한; RRi-yo-han) (aka: Lee Bok-chil (Korean: 이복칠; RRi-bok-chil)). It also uses the name 'The Korean Baptist Church'(Korean: 대한예수교침례회; RRdae-ha-nye-su-gyo-chim-nye-hoe) in parallel. It is a splinter group from Yoo Byung-eun's Evangelical Baptist Church.

In South Korea, Life Word Mission is commonly misunderstood to be one of several movements commonly known as Guwonpa (Korean: 구원파; Hanja: 救援派; RRgu-won-pa) meaning Salvation Sect, from the Korean term guwon (Korean: 구원; RRgu-won) meaning "salvations". They have clearly stated they have no part in salvation sect.
