Federation
PREAMBLE
Political correctness in a "multi-cultural"
ethos cannot introduce Religious Hatred Offences without the faithful
of all religions being set up as offenders. Hence the State would
assume (D)ivine status, freedom of speech would end and "democracy,"
howsoever defined, would die. Being honest about this before Almighty
God, our heavenly Father, the one salient question we must ask
ourselves as a constitutional Protestant Christian nation is:
"Shall we please God or man?"
1. Pleasing man we deny the existence of
false religion and move down the ecumenical pathway to universal
apostasy and a syncretic faith.
2. Pleasing the Lord God Jehovah we are
bound to expose false gods, false christs and false prophets.
3. The consequences of our honesty before
God will bring a measure of offence in the eyes of some, but also
respect from other religions; and blessing rather than judgment,
upon our nation.
4. The present blasphemy laws need not be
changed save, perhaps, for the addition of a measure to ensure
that those who move from one faith to another shall not be subjected
to any kind of violence whatsoever, and to state clearly that
any order or opinion by a religious leader outside this country
"hath no jurisdiction in the United Kingdom." If we
fail to uphold our Christian traditions in this, and thereby deny
our heavenly Father before men He, likewise, will deny us: nor
will the blasphemer escape his just reward. Moreover, we are bound
to uphold firmly our nation's Protestant Christian Faith in such
a manner as to discourage the persecution of Christians at home
and elsewhere in the world.
5. It has to be recognised that no true
Christian could ever agree with anything that weakens any one
of the Ten Commandments, in this case the third. Such a move could
only lead to the further reduction in this country of due reverence
to God, Who is the provider of the wellbeing of all who dwell
here, and hence to greater future distress. Also, a true Christian
is not given to stirring up religious hatred, therefore any new
legislation in this regard should not strengthen the hands of
those who feed on strife.
6. Further it should be recognised that
genuine critical comment by the followers of any faith on the
differences between their faith and that of others need not be
a barrier to human kindness and should not end in litigation.
7. The proper out-working of the Queen's
Coronation Oath, and the maintenance of the centrality of the
Holy Bible to the British legal system should be the object of
all measures designedas they ought to beto implement
the Will of God among His people.
8. Finally, as an aid to the Committee's
understanding of what our movement is all about, we enclose for
information a copy of our "Scripturally based Kingdom Objectives."

a. That Great Britain's true role in the
world lies, as at all times in the past, in our being friend and
companion to the oppressed and the just, but enemy of the oppressor;

organisations, that is, the EU, UNO, WTO, GATS and in bilateral

state;

separated unto God, as an example to all peoples of the blessings
to be found in keeping the Law of the Lord.

of time;

of European Civil Law over British Common Law be reversed and

the national and local authorities actively encourage families
to assume meaningful and effective responsibility for their own
kin;
b. That the life process is a sacred gift
of God and that the search for knowledge thereof is best served,
not by dabbling in genetic engineering or devising ways of overcoming
and making ineffectual malfunctions and abnormalities, but by
recourse to the Giver of Life to determine and eliminate the cause
of our distresses; the lusts and malpractices of mankind, and
further, that in all cases of natural pregnancy and normality
in birth the life process be not aborted.
c. That the respect due to men and women
as individuals, in regard to their characters and the equal importance
of their roles in society be asserted and upheld, and that the
responsibilities and rights of men and women in industry, commerce
and service be protected from anarchy.

the Law of the Lord and the Christian doctrine of the body as

local hospitals to large centres of excellence be developed and
maintained so that our God-given duties to the elderly can be
carried out;
c. That respect for life and the integrity
of the individual be upheld whether at birth or at the close of
life; euthanasia to be permanently outlawed.

a. That man's responsibility under God for
the preservation and replenishment of the Earth and all its creatures,
must be emphasised;
b. That the wanton exploitation of our natural
resources must be prevented;
c. That biblical agricultural and dietary
laws are the basis of food production in pursuit of the physical
well being of mankind and all Creation.

peace.
