The proposed conversion practices criminalisation proposals amount to state sponsored persecution.
The proposed conversion practices bill is a tyrannical threat to parents, pastors and medics who understand the basic biological fact that a male has XY chromosomes and a female has XX chromosomes.
“that won’t be a chilling effect, that’ll be a deep freeze” – @Jebadoo2 💥
Health professionals are already warning that if the conversion practices ban becomes law, they would have no choice but to stop working with children and adults struggling with their identity. The risk of prosecution would be too great.
Grateful for the popularity of this article.
What’s the lesson from all the interest?
Believers long for something transformative.
But there is no key to growth in godliness - it’s always just read the Word, pray and serve in your church.
The doctrine of revelation depends on God speaking, and God reveals himself as speaking in a Trinitarian way.

‘We gathered to lament. But we are to pray & work towards a time when our society turns away from the culture of death and embraces a culture celebrating the dignity and value of every human life.’
Sharon James writes in eN:
Ministers of the gospel of Jesus Christ need to be ready to continue to obey God rather than men if the Conversion Practices Ban becomes law.
Even if it means prison.
Teaching and preaching real marriage isn’t hatred. Parliament agreed in 2013, and it must agree again when these rules come to a vote.

Halloween is about death:
1. Zombies
2. Celebrated by those who are spiritually dead
3. Origins in All Hallows Eve
Reformation Day is about life:
1. The Reformers live in glory
2. Celebrated by those who are spiritually alive
3. Jesus is alive
Choose life

Abortion is the great evil of our.
If we don’t preach, pray and write against it, should we expect it to get better?
People from around the country gathered in Parliament Square on Tuesday 27 October to mark the anniversary of the Abortion Act, passed on 27 October 1967.
"The tone was sombre, as we lamented the loss of more than 11 million unborn lives since the passing of that act," writes Sharon James of The Christian Institute.

"The Minister says the Conversion Practices Bill respects parents. The Bill says otherwise." The Free Speech Union shows how far it reaches - into homes, therapy rooms and places of worship. This Bill should be dropped. freespeechunion.org/news/the…

A dear brother, previously in an @efcc_uk church - please pray for Andy.
Come along with us and visit Lublin, Poland and the site of a new church planting work. Our hope is that you can use the video and prayer guide in your midweek prayer meetings to learn more about this work and how you can support it.

Great connections here, nicely drawn. out. "The Father is the Speaker, the Son is the Word spoken, and the Holy Spirit is the breath on which the Word is spoken."

Who caused the earthquake after Christ’s death in Matthew 27:51?
God always acts as Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
Therefore the Son, according to His divinity, also caused the earthquake, even after His own death according to His humanity.
Hallelujah!
A significant development
ISLAM IS NOW THE LARGEST CATEGORY OF CASES HANDLED BY THE FREE SPEECH UNION.
Cases involving Islam have overtaken those concerning people penalised for expressing gender-critical beliefs.
Since the Labour Government came to power in July 2024, the number of cases involving Islam has more than doubled, said @BenBarryJones, the FSU’s Director of Case Management, at our live recording of the FSU Podcast at the Battle of Ideas.
This is astonishing in a country that abolished blasphemy laws in 2008 — 18 years ago.
