Archbishop Luschin was born in the wealthy peasant family of Carinthian Slovenes in Tainach (present day a part of town Völkermarkt). After graduation from gymnasium and lyceum education, he joined the Major Roman Catholic Theological Seminary in Klagenfurt^[1] and was ordained as priest on 26 August 1804, for the Roman Catholic Diocese of Gurk,^[2] after he had completed his philosophical and theological studies.^[3]

After his ordination, he served as an assistant priest in Klagenfurt from 1804 until 1808 and continued his studies in the University of Vienna earning a Doctor of Sacred Theology degree in 1813. He became a professor in a University of Graz and in 1815–1816, for one year, become a Rector. In 1820 he was appointed a referent in ecclesiastical affairs for the Tyrolean government in Innsbruck.^[3]

On 24 May 1824 he was confirmed by the Pope Leo XII as a Diocesan Bishop of Roman Catholic Diocese of Trento, that had been vacant for six years. On 3 October 1824 he was consecrated as a bishop by Metropolitan Archbishop Augustin Johann Joseph Gruber without co-consecrators.^[2] Here he worked not only on the solution of an ecclesiastical questions but also on economic problems.^[1]

On 23 June 1834 he was confirmed by the Holy See as a Metropolitan Archbishop of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Lviv and the second Primate of Galicia and Lodomeria in present-day Ukraine, but he immediately realized that he would not be able to control the difficult situation, as there were strong tensions between the Latin-rite Catholics and the united Ruthenians. So he immediately asked to be transferred to another see, and a year later, on 6 April 1835, he was confirmed by the Holy See as a Metropolitan Archbishop of the vacant Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Gorizia and Gradisca.^[3]

Archbishop Luschin died while in office on 2 May 1854 in Gorizia, Princely County of Gorizia and Gradisca, and was buried in the crypt of the local metropolitan chapel.^[3]
