CBC SUPpORTS THE WORK OF 'FREE TO BE CHURCH'
|
Free To Be Church is a nationwide effort by a group of New Zealand pastors, church leaders, and Christians to secure and protect the lawful, God-given freedoms to practice our faith in accordance with God’s Word, and as recognised within both the New Zealand Bill of Rights, and the Treaty of Waitangi / Te Tiriti o Waitangi.
Kris Baines (CBC Pastor/Elder) currently serves on the board of Free To Be Church, along with 7 other NZ Pastors. With the recent introduction of laws that encroach on our religious freedoms (Conversion Therapy Bill, Hate Speech Bill, Covid-19 Public Health Response Act etc.) it is getting a lot harder to be a Christian in New Zealand. Whilst we accept that Christianity will always attract opposition and conflict (1 Jn 3:13), we also want to do all we can to flourish as the body of Christ. Therefore, Free To Be Church desires to be a voice and resource for all believers across New Zealand by seeking to preserve the freedoms of the church (1 Tim 2:1-2), helping believers to think through the issues biblically (2 Tim 3:16-17), and taking peaceful, legal action when appropriate (Acts 25:10-12). |
