The conversion bill could be the biggest threat to gospel ministry in decades, but we can stop it
The draft conversion practices bill could be the biggest threat to Christian churches and families in decades.
It risks criminalising parents and pastors for ordinary conversations and prayer with church and family members.
Even if they've done nothing illegal, the accusation alone could be enough to drag faithful Christians through the mud.
For what? Normal Christian discipleship in the areas of sex and gender.
This is a huge threat, and we need to respond. Use our resources to respond to the call for evidence. Warn your pastor. Tell your church.
We can stop this but the Church needs to wake up and do its part.
Let's rise up and do our bit to make sure we can all speak freely and support people struggling in the areas of gender and sexuality 👇

Dr Anna Hutchinson: therapists shouldn’t have to work to “a bill that can only be defined once it’s been taken to court.”
The Government’s own explanatory notes say what counts as abuse is “for the court to decide.”
No wonder therapists fear being the test case.
Matthew Grech had 17 court appearances in 3 years for sharing his testimony in Malta before eventually being acquitted.
British Christians could be next.
The government's conversion bill could mean that ex-gay Christians like Matthew, as well as parents and pastors, are prosecuted for simply helping people leave LGBT identities and lifestyles.
We need your help to protect Christians.
Please take 30 minutes to let the government know you are against this bill 👇
“We know vexatious complaints do happen…” says Dr Alison Berner defending the conversion bill's health care exemption.
But why does 'health care' get a free pass while parents and pastors can be dragged into criminal courts over baseless accusations?
TWO YEARS AGO:
Justin Welby resigns on the same day we hand in a petition with over 40,000 signatures in support of Bernard Randall.
"Set me free from the torment I've been put through because the Church of England has failed to follow safeguarding procedures in my case, and in so many others. Give me my life back, allow me back into ministry."
Justin Welby's resignation changes very little for Rev. Dr Bernard Randall. He is still blacklisted as a safeguarding risk for giving a sermon on CofE teaching and identity politics in a CofE chapel in a school with a CofE ethos.
Why does he continue to face the severest safeguarding sanction when it has been found that he has done nothing wrong? While no action has been taken for years on the most serious safeguarding cases.
Yesterday he handed in a petition to Lambeth Palace signed by over 40,000 people calling for him to be reinstated.
The @churchofengland must now do the right thing.
Watch Bernard discuss his dystopian safeguarding nightmare here.

It has been over a year and a half since the Supreme Court ruling and policies are only just beginning to change.
It shouldn't take this long to recognise the difference between men and women.

'We reported the threat immediately and supplied the police with the correspondence. Yet days later, we were left facing uncertainty while police forces passed responsibility between one another.
‘Other police forces must take note, especially as White Ribbon Day approaches, and many of these forces have firm commitments to ending violence against women and girls. Protecting us needs to be more than a slogan.'

BREAKING: A man has been arrested over an alleged threat to murder the Darlington nurses and “whoever doesn’t support trans rights”.
The email named Darlington Memorial Hospital and included an image of a large knife.
Christian Concern has stood with these nurses throughout their legal battle and will continue to support them through this ordeal.
Police acted only after media intervention.
Bethany Hutchison: “We are relieved but deeply shocked that the police took so long to take action, and only did after the media contacted them.”
“We will not be frightened into silence and remain unbowed.”
Andrea Williams: “The Christian Legal Centre has supported these nurses from the outset, when neither their unions nor their employer would stand with them. We will stand with them through this latest ordeal and until the end.”

The real problem of ‘Conversion Practices’ is the State, not Christians
The government's draft bill targets pastors and parents while giving a free pass to 'healthcare'.
But it's the NHS that's given children puberty blockers to 'convert' them. It was NHS hospitals that gave people electric shock aversion therapy in the 60s and 70s.
State endorsement does not mean moral or scientific correctness.

This mother was reported to social services for not supporting her daughter's gender identity.
Under the Conversion Practices Bill she would be arrested and face a prison sentence.
A bizarre comparison
Jayne Ozanne compares praying for someone who is same-sex attracted or confused about their gender ... with rape.
“It’s a step way too far and it needs to be stopped, and I hope the government takes measures to stop it imminently.”
@A_Minichiello tells GB News we are already seeing people who question trans ideology lose jobs and careers. This bill will only make it worse, affecting more parents and families. It must be stopped.
Christian Concern retweeted
This bill will criminalise ordinary parenting.
@kathleen_stock1 is quite right to point this out.
In these days of fluid teenage identities, it is ridiculous to think that a parent challenging a teenage's professed sexual orientation might be a criminal act. The Conversion Practices Bill is a menace in more ways than one. Me in the Times ⬇️
