No, it doesn't give lifelink, so it will stack with other Lifelink abilities.

this plus sanguine bond rocks

Is this counted as confering lifelink?
If not, It would work well with a Serra Avatar if it does, it will still work well.

Thank you Elysiume, that's what I thought, but wasn't 100%

Why is this only a 3.6? That's pretty good, but from my experiences with this card, it's just done great things for me!

I got my legs whooped with this and Serra Avatar so I know that works, but honestly this is just a solid enchantment. Its probably one of the better life gain enchantments white has,really versatile working just as well with a Baneslayer or Iona as it will with a bunch of weenies.

Combine this with Well of Lost Dreams and it doubles as a white Coastal Piracy.

True Conviction

murdershot21 wile True Conviction is better this dose have a few things over it like this stacks with lifelink and True Conviction dose not.

Armadillo Cloak strictly better.

Do you gain life if your creature doesn't kill the defending creature

In my experience this card plays a lot better than it looks at first glance. Try it with token strategies

Armadillo cloak is not strictly better... first off, they're different types of enchantments. second, the cloak has a different cost. third, the cloak does things this card doesn't, and vice versa. That said, this card is awesome. Stacking with Lifelink? Yes please.

Murdershot21: "True Conviction" &
dragonking987: "murdershot21 wile (sic) True Conviction is better this dose (sic) have a few things over it like this stacks with lifelink and True Conviction dose (sic) not."

This is why I hate one-word comments on Gatherer. Is murdershot21 saying that True Conviction is better, or is he/she saying to run this with True Conviction? Or that the latter is a functional reprint? (this would be incorrect, but still a possible meaning to the post). You can't really tell with just one word or card name. Plus just saying that one thing doesn't really contribute anything of value.

The two cards are, however, fantastic together. Yes, any lifelink ability will be good with this since this isn't lifelink so they "stack," but True Conviction in particular is great because both have all of your creatures gaining a ton of life, instead of just the ones printed with lifelink or with auras/equipment that grant it. Plus True Conviction's double strike is insane with lifelink and Noble Purpose's life gain ability,

@ sarroth
Since we're being nit-picky here "True Conviction" is a two word post, not one.

Rhox Faithmender is really mending it now.
Especially with Doran.
